Cyberpunk 2077: Current-Gen or Next-Gen?

[CloseTalker]

April made it a tough call, but September makes it much easier to wait. Would be silly to get current gen version now

 

[Deleted member 8468]

PC, likely with a controller.

 

[Proteus]

We're all saying just wait for next gen now, including myself, but how many of us are really going to break?

I'm just hoping it's cross-buy.

 

[Kevin360]

I was going to buy in April, but now I'll buy on the PS5 or Series X.

 

[Zushin]

Not really sure there will be a next gen port tbh.

 

[Deleted member 437]

Its a tough call for sure.

I'm PROBABLY going to wait for the next gen version at this point.

 

[oriic]

After today? Nextgen ofc... :(

 

[Porkepik]

Next gen now....can wait a few more month by September

"PC" - Henry Cavill, circa 2019

 

[Sanctuary]

I was going to be playing it on PC anyway, and thought "It sucks that the Nvidia cards won't be released until months after this"...
Next-gen PC it is.

Definitely for PC. While I have an RTX 2080, I am expecting to upgrade again this year to something maybe 50% better. And honestly, graphics cards sell for a good bit still, even used.

Might even be able to play 1440p/60fps with Raytracing too.

edit: You guys are using the wrong image.

Hard pick between my 1070/6600k rig with likely earlier copy, or a PS5 version (or enhanced PS4 if they don't really make a port)

CDPR wasn't going to have the patch ready for next gen launch when it was an April game. So you can put 2+2 together on the state of that now that the game is delayed to 2 months before next gen

 

[Rolodzeo]

Edit: Dammit!

 

[DigSCCP]

Isn't latter console limitation though? (At least PC they're compatible for Witcher 3)

Click to shrink...

I have no idea.
What I do know is that with other games on console, PS4 specifically, this never ocurred to me.
The Witcher 3 is the only case where I couldn´t play my vanilla save on a GOTY edition, and I still mad about it...never played the DLCs because of it =(

 

[ZoSo006]

Considering my pc is better than my PS4 Pro but will be likely be dwarfed by the PS5, I think i'll be kicking myself if I don't just wait.

 

[Deleted member 21411]

I'm fully assuming current gen will get an upgrade option so current baby

 

[Scuffed]

PC but if I was only a console user I would definitely say next gen.

 

[Lobster Roll]

PC, and new parts to go along with it.

Click to shrink...

My thoughts exactly.

 

[inner-G]

My current-gen PC is already a next-gen Pro by console standards.

 

[zombiejames]

Launching just two months (maybe) before the next-gen launch makes me want to wait.

 

[FullNelson]

It depends on the price of the those boxes... If they are less than 499, I think it's gonna be nextgen. Anything higher, current gen for me:(

I'm playing so much fewer games than I used to, and September will already have so many other choices. Once you get over that initial launch week FOMO hump, it's fine.

You're right though, lots of folks here will break.

 

[Namikaze1]

next gen

 

[Razgriz417]

PC cause mods

 

[Kyrios]

Depends on what's around that time in terms of game releases. But I am definitely leaning more to waiting at this point when I pick up a PS5 sometime next year.

No promises if I actually do wait though lol

 

[modiz]

i planned on waiting for next gen consoles either way, but this makes the choice much easier for many.

 

[Isayas]

PC but I have to change my graphics card for an Ampere and I just got my 2080 super during my 32nd birthday this past October.

 

[Trickster]

 

[N7_Kovalski]

Buy Day 1 for PS4 then play it again on PS5

 

[Gold Arsene]

I never buy a new console at launch price so current gen.

 

[George Romero]

probably current gen, i will not have money to buy a ps4 on launch, but i will play after i buy a ps5 too

 

[Nestunt]

I'll wait.

Even if they don't do a better version. I bet the september release will run better on november on my PS5.

 

[Empyrean Cocytus]

I think people are seriously overstating how big of a jump we're going to see at the outset of next gen. Cyberpunk will probably get a next-gen remaster yes, but I wouldn't expect it for a while.

 

[Dylan]

I'll probably try the Stadia version if it's good.

 

[Deleted member 3925]

Might as well wait for next gen. Can handle an extra two months.

 

[Soulnado]

The game seems extremely replayable, so you could easily play the current gen, and then next gen for a second playthrough.

 

[Gero]

They just need to confirm PS5 day 1 support before launch. I dont want to wait 2+ months for nothing

 

[Deleted member 36578]

I will absolutely wait because it's so close to next gen anyway

 

[kostacurtas]

PC. This is the way.

 

[OnionPowder]

Gonna pick up a 3070 or 3080 and a new monitor and play on my PC

I couldn't imagine wanting to play it on console after how bad The Witcher 3 is on them.

 

[Gold Arsene]

April made it a tough call, but September makes it much easier to wait. Would be silly to get current gen version now

Why do you feel this way if you don't mind me asking? I don't think everyone is getting a PS5 day 1.

I'm definitely not at least.

 

[jelly]

Next gen probably. Think I want that smoother, solid, upgraded experience.

 

[Rowsdower]

I'll likely buy a current gen copy, then play it using backwards compatibility with either console.

 

[DarthBuzzard]

PC for me. Can't wait to play it on a 3080, assuming that isn't delayed also.

 

[QuigleyMcShine]

With the emphasis the new consoles are putting on backwards compatibility I'm hoping there isn't a next gen SKU, and instead they'll do performance patches aimed specifically at the new consoles.

 

[nStruct]

PC if I had a GPU and monitor that could take advantage of it. But as of right now I'll plan on getting the Series X version.

 

[Bgamer90]

Kinda presumptuous to say that there will be a next gen port, right? With the emphasis on backwards compatibility for the new machines, they might not bother with one.

Click to shrink...

It should end up running better on next gen consoles either way if the game will use dynamic scaling.

 

[A Ream of Paper]

Probably current gen, unless it turns out to be a Series X/PS5 launch title.
