Probably nothing. If anything they are pissed because this title would of been close to launch of the new consoles. If anything they are really pissed off, why would they give them money for a game they expected people to play on new consoles around launch lol.Wonder how much MS or Sony paid for the delay
Wow people are mad they took time off to play a video game and it's delayed now. Talk about first world problems.
It always puzzles me. Games don't quit being as fun if you wait to play them. Plus, you can play the improved version as both patches and mods are inevitable.I'm completely surprised that people still preorder games and don't wait a few months for them to drop in price which they all inevitably do.
Better delayed than to push their employee's to work overtime. I'm personally in no hurry to play a flawed game, or a game built on overworked employees.
Just heard about people sending death threats to CD Project Red developers about the delay of CP2077. Gee, I wish my life was so perfect that I could complain about the delay of a fucking video game!
People have lost their ever loving minds! What a bunch of self entitled LOSERS.
There is a difference between trolling/lashing out, and credible real death threats. It makes me wonder how many of these death threats are actual old school death threats, or if they are largely just internet garbage that people count as death threats?

I'm still waiting on Bad Company 3This is "in a blink of an eye" compared to Star Citizen just to put it in perspective.
I bet it has to do with Ray Tracing implementation or lack thereof.Well they are blaming the delay on having to test the game on 9 different release systems, and a few of them giving them more problems than they had anticipated so at least they are trying.

Current gen consoles are the ones causing them issues.
Exactly. Again, they're probably having to retool the game to achieve a decent framerate under Raytracing with the new consoles.
Current gen= PS4 and XB1. Neither have ray tracing.
Current gen= PS4 and XB1. Neither have ray tracing.
They probably had to code two versions of the game, one for the current gen consoles and one for the upcoming consoles.
Why does it matter? Is it suddenly acceptable and alright because it's not credible?
That's like yelling fire in a crowded movie theater & then proclaiming that you were just "Trolling". Either way you're going to jail.
Is there? There have been multiple people who have made death threats on platforms like Facebook and then gone through with them. Most of the school shooters, especially the students posted similar threats.Krenum that's a massive conflation, there is a vast difference between yelling fire in a crowded building and writing something terrible on twitter.
yes there is. Yelling fire in a crowded building more likely than not causes stampedes and trampling deaths.Is there?

The cops take this stuff seriously now, because they have to. How can you know the difference between “I’m just running my mouth” and “I have purchased my gun and I’m going to act” when literally the words are the same?
You make a good point there.Posting threats online is par for the course in the sludge pool that is social media.
You can't take a stats based approach when dealing with threats. There isn't a single time in which anyone will accept "stats" for the police or otherwise responding to a threat. If at any point, heaven forbid, your family or someone you know becomes "a stat" as a result of someone threatening them online and then something happens - you'll change your tune.yes there is.

Posting threats online is par for the course in the sludge pool that is social media. A fraction of a fraction of a percent are acted on.
Vast difference, and investigation (which should absolutely occur) does not change the underlying stats.

Every time people don't respond to a threat and something is carried out, immediately we look at what proactive steps could have been done, and basically most of the time it's taking stuff like this seriously.
Esesntially this is how Pearl Harbor and 9/11 both could have been avoided. We heard a threat and didn't think it was possible. And again, like I metioned before with school shootings and basically every whack job with a manifesto.
Bottom line is it isn't acceptable behavior. And accepting it because it's online isn't the correct answer. If the same level of accountability was placed on people online as would happen in person people would shape up really quick. If for no other reason that in a real life situation you run your mouth you have a chance of getting smacked in the face.
Your point may be that it's not feasilbe to track everyone down and that's a different matter - but we're not even talking about that yet. We're only at the level of talking about what is "right" and/or what should be the expectations of our society. And even if we take zero legal action or police action in those situations, we'd be better served if there are consequences. I'm good with perma-banning every one of those folks off twitter. And off of any digital platform where they continue that behavior. Much like the proverbial screaming in a crowded movie theater their voice isn't useful or good in any sense. Free speech may be guranteed by the constitution of the United States, but not necessarily on any of these platforms. They're free to yell obsenities and all of their garbage and vitriol at home.
That's odd when you consider the PC requirements and recommendations is pretty weak.Yeah. Rumors state that they're having a lot of performance issues with the current consoles. Sounds like PC and next gen stuff is ready to go.

A transcript from an Investors call after the delay, shows CDPR telling investors that the primary reason they delayed the game, is due to concerns about Metacritic scores. They would rather be embarrassed now with a delay, than embarassed after a release. They also tried to downplay crunch by saying its not actually that bad.
MN: So, when it comes to Metacritic, we continuously aim at a 90+ game, so nothing has changed here; this remains the goal and, as Adam mentioned, this is actually the main reason for postponing the release. We want to give the game an extra polish; we’d rather be slightly ashamed right now in front of you than be ashamed in front of the players once the game releases. In terms of average selling price, whether it’s going to be somewhat more aggressive – the answer is no. This was not the plan when we were planning to launch on November 19, and it’s still not the plan for the December 10 launch. We believe we have a premium title that’s coveted by the players and we don’t need to offer any extra incentives – I think everybody who is going to be working on selling this game, in retail and on digital platforms, is going to be happy with what the game can make once it starts selling.
https://www.cdprojekt.com/en/wp-content/uploads-en/2020/10/trancript_en.pdfMN: I’ll start with the release date: we have not considered splitting the release; we’re big believers in serving everything at the same time. It’s much more reasonable from the perspective of how the team operates and it’s also convenient from the marketing perspective. So the answer here is no. You also mentioned that the game is prepared for next-gen. I would instead say that it’s ready to be played on next-gen – that’s an important distinction because our true next-gen version is going to come later. But yes; the game can be played and I just wanted to make sure that’s not misunderstood. Now, about optimization and so on – games of such complexity and magnitude always have some bugs upon release. This is understood; it’s commonplace – anybody who has played any game out there, like GTA, RDR, The Witcher 3 – any of the big games – knows there are bound to be some bugs. It’s more about the scale and the quantity of these bugs, and it’s really the only issue we’re facing – so of course we’re going to continue improving and working on the game once it launches, as was the case with The Witcher 3 – as everybody knows – but when it comes to the launch moment, we want people to not be pestered by something that is going to be truly problematic for them; we want them to avoid those kinds of situations; we want them to enjoy their arrival in Night City – so, coming back to your question, yes, it’s basically optimization and all the challenges related to that. There’s no other “hidden story” here.
