That seems unnecessarily shitty if true. Assuming they actually want customers there must be a better option? Also is performance basically like having the game yourself? Have a fiber connection lag should be minimal I think

Check out GeForce Now, Vorph Vorph uses it and I think says it's pretty good.

Seems fairly trivial to prevent them from playing it on the PS4 if Sony locks the day one patch or something?

If they’re offline I’m guessing they can play the buggy as shit gold version that’s on the disc? It’s going to get shit on pretty bad if that’s the case.

GFN Founders price was (is?) $6 a month. If you don't pay, you get long queues and a 1hr cap on your session. Often don't get the best hardware either unless you're playing way offpeak times.

Overall the service is pretty good. I was playing WDL and ACV with settings mostly on High to Very High, even had ray tracing on for WDL (at the lowest setting, but it still looked nice), and fps was pretty stable at 60. Latency hasn't been a problem at all. That said, occasionally even the paid servers get overloaded at primetime and you'll start getting artifacts and the image is like watching a YT video at 360p. Hopefully Nvidia is prepared for a massive increase in users for Cyberpunk release and has increased their capacity.

As for the early copies, I doubt they care enough to try to screw people over. Twitch will just shut down any streams pre-release like usual.

So cyberpunk seems to be the most anticipated singleplayer rpg since skyrim, more than witcher3. What's the big brain move here, play it at release and enjoy the release day excitement or wait until next year when the inevitable patches put the game in working order?

I googled it, PS4 hardware doesn't even meet the min specs to run it on PC. They must have lobotomized it like mad to get it running tolerably well on the current gen.

If it's as good as Witcher 3 I'll play it multiple times so both.

Damn, I am tempted for this. Since after reading a bit more, it seems once your 6 hour session is done(the paid amount) you can just re-launch and start again, just have to wait in line if there is one. I am more worried about it being slammed, connection being shit/lag etc from being so popular. Otherwise I am going in with this most likely on medium with some of the other fancier things(relfections/sky etc) on low or off, since I barely meet reccommend.

Wait a year. Not only will the patches do wonders for the stability of the game, but all the mods that will be out by then will allow you to customize your experience to what ever type of game you like to play. No matter what the base game ends up being.
