MULTI Cyberpunk 2077 - Base game + Phantom Liberty sales cross 30 million copies!

On the flip side, a notably higher score than 86 for Phantom Liberty won't put CDP in the grey list either

We've already established the standard for expansions set by Burning Shores i.e. 82

Goddamn, jumping off of bikes, air dashing, deflecting bullets, throwing enemies, vehicle combat. The amount of combat options is just insane!!

Lmao @ jumping off bikes

Lmao @ jumping off bikes

I see you're still having a hard time coming up with a shooter (let alone an open world RPG) with this level of versatility in combat. "lmao" is all you can come up with

Aisay options tou Far Cry games mein bhi hai. It ain't about the breadth, but the depth of mechanics

Nahi hai na... Cyberpunk goes way beyond. Both interms of breadth and depth and verticality

But hey, at least you managed to come up with 1 franchise.

Well, Mario with the tail suit can jump off of goomba's heads, gliding gracefully all the while carrying the turtle shell and throwing it mid air precisely at the enemies.

He doesn't have a bike though, yet. He can ride on yoshi I guess.

Mario ewwww

Psyhonauts, Super Meat Boy, Hollow Knight, Ori all better platformers

Inb4 CerebralTiger finding outdated posts.

 

[CerebralTiger]

Mario ewwww

I don’t think the nostalgia argument holds much signifance for Mario as it does for Zelda. Its overflowing with creativity and fresh ideas unlike Zelda.

Overflowing laughter ensues

Oh look, right on cue. A post before all the games I mentioned that surpassed it.

My Goddd that combat itni versatility to koi dedicated shooter mein bhi nahi hai

 

[CerebralTiger]

LMAO @ Necrokiller's use of terms like complexity and versatility

 

[Necrokiller]

Better than CerebralTiger's idea of complexity and versatility...

 

[CerebralTiger]

Woh tou nazar aa hi raha hai kis joke of a game ki thread mein yeh baat ho rahi hai

 

[Necrokiller]

Still waiting for alternatives (Far Lulz), and something that offers more than a fraction of what Cyberpunk does

Lemme know, I'll wait

 

[CerebralTiger]

Can't wait for Necrokiller to label this as emergent gameplay

 

[Necrokiller]

Abey yaar koi alternative bhi bata do ab ?

I guess nahi hai

Can't wait for Necrokiller to label this as emergent gameplay

You can tell how new this word is to CerebralTiger and he fails to understand it. Case in point: he never understood Crysis's emergent gameplay either

 

[CerebralTiger]

Lmao @ new. Sure Necrokiller, let that thought linger in that little fantasy world of yours

Games like Crysis have some traces of emergent gameplay, but it's nowhere near on the level of the games I mentioned in the BG3 thread. I can mention more games, if those weren't enough lol.

Anyway, regarding Crysis, the game does offer freedom to approach objectives in different ways using the tools at your disposal, and, combined with the physics-based destruction, it paves the way for some emergent stuff. But these emergent elements are better realized in the Just Cause series (or even Far Cry 2)

Cyberpunk 2077 is far, far from having anything emergent. It's world is static, its physics broken af, its AI dumb af, its poor systems or complete lack thereof, its 'breadth' of poorly implemented gameplay mechanics. Just look at how clumsy and awkward the melee is in that video, for instance. Not even hiring Much118x could conceal that

More importantly, there is no meaningful interaction between its systems that can lead to emergent gameplay. The police system in the base game, for example, is so rudimentary and basic. Let's see what Phantom Liberty's so-called overhaul brings.

I mean, you're also comparing games that came atleast a DECADE after Crysis. Doesn't change the fact that it set the benchmark for emergent gameplay and was way ahead of its time. But the whole concept is new to CerebralTiger so this is expected that he never grasped at the brilliance of it.

Crysis Review

Crysis is visually stunning, packed with intelligent, thrilling gameplay, and easily one of the greatest shooters ever made.

It helps that the game features a high degree of advanced physics and destructibility in a highly dynamic world. Getting caught in a firefight in the jungle is a cinematic treat, thanks to the way the bullets will chop down trees, while branches sway from impacts. This isn't just a visual effect, either, as falling timber can kill if it lands on someone. There's all sorts of emergent behavior like that throughout the game, events that spring up completely unintended or unforeseen. In one instance, the flaming wreckage of a chopper landed on a hut, crushing it and killing all those inside.

Crytek has managed to deliver an incredibly advanced and exciting first-person shooter that practically rewrites the rules for the entire genre.

A real "getting alot of boss baby vibes" moment for CerebralTiger. Makes it pointless to discuss this with someone who fails to understand the concepts in the first place.

"traces" LMAOOOO
