The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Next Gen delayed again

No biggie, it'll probably be done by fall. I just bought the xbox version just for this update. Maybe this will be my main game for next winter, I could live with that.

CDPR is by no means a "small developer." Maybe Witcher 1-era CDPR, but they beefed up HARD after Witcher 2.

Keep up here, it's Saber that is cut out, not CDPR. And even if it was CDPR, still super tiny compared to how the entire Russian economy is being shut down in large ways.

By the way, CDPR is Polish. Next time maybe actually be right before posting stupid pics.

Lol, pic had nothing to do with you. It's why your post, and I know this may be difficult to understand, was followed by my comment, not my .gif. Maybe understand context before posting stupid "gotchas."

Nice deflection of the fact that everything you said was 100% wrong, since CDPR wasn't the one being spoken about or being cut out. Net to mention they aren't in Russia.

If they really are serious about this and are not just virtue signalling, they should pull from the market any versions of their games were code has been worked on by Russian developers. Or will that hurt their wallet too much? Let us see if they really mean this.

The deep lolz

The next time anyone questions why Bluepoint games is as valued as they are, look at this delay, look at a team struggle remastering THEIR OWN GAME, look at shit like Silent Hill Collection, SFIV port, FFX PS4 port and lastly...look at that god awful GTA collection port lol

Its not as simply as some copy and paste as many keep trying to make it sound like. Only a small few port teams exist that are deeply talented in what they do and I think people don't know how rare it is, they just expect it to be a easy thing based on those teams that have made the process seem easy and a no brainer. Maybe, just maybe....we need to remind people about those delays and those fuck ups with ports and remasters for them to understand and respect when its done right.


That being said. I'm ok with a delay, I do worry a bit as.....well CDPR doesn't have the best track record and I believe they lied about a lot of shit regarding that W3 downgrade, I believe they struggled then as to why they lied and even with better hardware, they are struggling yet again. Maybe, its just CDPR themselves.

Hardware can't be blamed on this one this time so that scapegoat is gone folks.

NeonGhost NeonGhost How come it can't look like that? Well that means it would show they fucking lied when they claimed any of that was real in the first place. People blamed "weak consoles" yet even on PC it doesn't look like that fake shit they had earlier, so they won't make it look like that ,as that was a lie, it never existed in the first place, but trust me...I knew that would be talked about when they announced a remaster as, now its put up or shut up.

It means they themselves will prove they lied originally about that game's looks. Whats the new excuse? PS5 and Series X too weak to do the thing they claimed they could do on even weaker hardware? =)

Just make it good I suppose.
The last few years have taught me to expect very little from game devs.
No hopes means no disappointment.

It's not the people's fault.
It's the pieces of shit in positions of power.
Hating the common people caught in the middle helps no one.

Putin isn't raping and killing those civilians himself.

Russia needs to be punished as a whole. But of course this won't change shit and few years from now another country will become their victim.

Nuclear weapons give them permission to do anything.

American never were close to to the level of what Russians do in (every) war.

Plus killing someone using drone is not even close to personally torture, rape and massace people.

Russians also targeted hospitals, kindergardens, schools and train stations without any military stuff even close to those positions. Not to mention leveling homes and apartment buildings...

It's really disappointing. And if the reason for this is to punish the Russian coders or to avoid backlash.. Well that's just petty. Lame, CDPR.
or you know avoid crippling sanctions. this stuff is the point of the sanctions, making working with Russia non viable

The point is to get the Russian people to resist their own government.

??? Perhaps re read what you quoted and the reply before that. I think you are replying to the wrong person.

Why should Russia invading Ukraine lead to cutting relations with a Russian developer? Everyone does business with China despite the atrocious things they do.
I'm just saying what happened, not that I agree with it

I just wanted to inform that cutting ties with Saber was a political decision, nothing to do with the project's quality as many were guessing
 
Last I checked, the game was being developed by a Russian game development studio, and that relationship has effectively been cut off. Consider CDPR is a Polish Game Developer right next to Ukraine. Working with a Russian studio is likely not to be the most popular or reasonable action at this present moment in time.

I think that's what this has to do with. The Russian studio part of Saber Interactive was the studio working on this.
 
In my defense I’m kinda retarded
Not retarded. Just intellectually challenged. That's a far nicer way of putting things.

Anywhoo yes I am gutted but if it's running at close to 4K/60 on series x I'm good. Although I was really looking forward to that jump in loading times due to the SSD. I wonder how fast it loads at the moment on the new systems?

It‘s not even necessarily anything about them working with a Russian studio being an unpopular move or not, they might literally not have a legal way of paying the studio. If they can’t send foreign currency into Russia legally and they can’t exchange into roubles legally, their hands are pretty much tied.

In house? I wonder if CDPR wasn't satisfied with Sabers work?
I think this has more to do with cutting ties with Russian businesses in light of the current geopolitical situation.

Big setback to be certain, but I understand why doing business with a Russian dev as a Polish company could be thorny right now.

I don't think it's as simple as "punishing" Russian devs, with all the sanctions going on and all the volatility in the currency, doing business with Russia is going to be tricky right now.

It’s not about “punishing the coders”, it’s that the money they are paying said russian coders contributed to the Russia tax system that in turn funds rape and mass murder in Ukraine. Continuing to support that with their companies money would be 100% unacceptable.
 
They know a lot of people are very eagerly awaiting this update. I think they’ll work hard to meet the holiday deadline, and use the time they have to try and make it something special. They can always add more to it later on, if needed.

So some of these rumors are real. Interesting.....

mmm, sounds very possible. Not sure how is daily basis of ukranians and russians, but in the past I experienced workign with people from Serbia and Montenegro... and boy, that people was literally throwing death threats all over the place. And let me be clear: Very credible and dangerous ones.
