GGG Please take your time to make a quality expansion.
I like the news, thanks!

U will get in January new quality costumes/pets, that is for sure.

Cyberpunk 2077 as the title says it is going to launch on 2077

in any way over 50% don't believe that cyberpunk will launch on December 10 plus about the same amount is refunding the preorders so no point in delaying league launch

plus on February launches Outriders, you gonna delay league launch to so players wont have to split time bit vine POE and Outriders?

Overwhelming opposition to this decision. It's a bad one, for sure. Why would you make this with zero evidence that any significant proportion of your player base even cares the tiniest bit about Cyber-whatever.

I have zero interest in playing Cyberpunk. I don't know why GGG thought that the two audiences were the same.

If there was a AAA isometric ARPG that was dropping on Dec 10th there would be more of a reason to delay.

If there is a production reason for delaying that is fine too, but just call it that.

I can deal with the disappointment of a technical delay. Delaying for a crap style of games launch is just bullsh**.

What the fuck is cd project red?

It's really not that hard to understand.

China is seemingly the country that boasts the highest number of Cyberpunk 2077 pre-orders.

Cyberpunk is going to be very influential on PC gamer time in China, so this is a purely economic decision. I am more interested in learning exactly who's decision it was to delay, rather than bicker back and forth about the reason why.

The reason why is ALWAYS the bottom line.

And when Diablo IV arrives, what will they do? will they close the company for a year??

You can't just watch China or competitive games, you can risk being late or out of business to the rest of the world as well.

This is part of the curse of being 'transparent'.

People will pick it apart. True or not, they will pick it apart.

It is also why I'm surprised GGG even still tries to be transparent. As more and more people seem to complain when they do.

I respect GGG mostly because of the transparency, I feel it is the main reason they have been so successful. But its a double edged sword and it seems to be hurting them more today than helping them.

This is ridiculous like the heist league.

I played 1 week on this boring and useless league, and now we have to wait 1 month longer.


I hope CP will, once again, push back its release date.

I don't know if this expression exists in other languages. But "Fortunately, the ridiculous does not kill"

I don't even want to play cyber whatever that is? I don't understand delaying a game to let another game shine... I wanted to play POE... Sounds like an excuse to me

While I appreciate GGG looking out for some of the player base that will be playing Cyberpunk, I have to look at this and say there goes my league start as December is normally when I can take a bunch of vacation time for a good release, verse January when my work doesn't allow for any time off as it's the start of tax season and I work in public accounting. QQ, but overall understandable.
