Back at it on Hunt: Showdown. All it takes is hitting one sound trap — if your volume is up, you can hear this other duo hit a group of crows as I’m climbing this building and give their location away, so I knew exactly where to look. Also note, the muzzle velocity of shots on these old timey weapons combined with no aim assist make this a hell of a shot.

Had this on my wishlist for quite a while. Maybe on Steam holiday sale which starts next week i may get it. Looks interesting!

The learning curve is tough, but the community is pretty friendly. I really recommend it. I’ve never played anything like it.

Don’t get it for PvE though. The AI enemies are really just like water hazards or sand traps to make the PvP more interesting.

I was willing to do the same for quite a while there.Don't pay. Its honestly not worth it. I considered it for sure right away at launch but looking back you'll save money and there will be plenty of consoles stocked in Jan/Feb. Don't feed the scalper demons lol

I second this!! Just have patience but don't give in to the scalpers!

Been trying since launch date to get a ps5. Play station direct closest i got was 6 minutes away then out of stock...failed on direct several times...faile in best buy several times and walmart today included. Ive never found it harder to give away 500 bucks. Its frustrating. It may be time to pay a scalper.

Don't pay a scalper. They're the reason most people can't get one themselves. I thought about it myself, but I keep thinking I'm going to have to upgrade my TV to get the most of the PS5's features and saving $1k for waiting to get the system normally will go a LONG way to get my dream TV.

Lol I literally just clicked the thread and was going to post and see you guys beat me to it. Im busy stressing out over Herbert in Fantasy lol.
But yeah, I'm getting a refund for sure with the PS5. I downloaded the Series X digital and noticed a significant difference with their "optimize" option, despite locking at certain frames the world is way more vibrant. Glad Sony is Ponying up...hehe. But ultimately, CDPR has some explaining to do and I think their rep is in major trouble.

Just submitted for refund on PSN, figure they may just release a next gen version and will wait for that at a later date. They really fumbled this up, lying to Sony and Microsoft, hiding gameplay, it was obvious they knew but don't know what their end game was. Should've just made a PC exclusive but guess early promises were made and were in too deep.

The development cycle took way took too long, and they knew the old-gen consoles and even PCs would hold the game back. But all of us fiends demanded they release it. So they're like ok...73.99 suckas. See you when its playable in 8 months. I might even demand refunds for both and just wait.

One of the biggest gaming disappointing disasters ever for sure.

Yep, i really thought the developer was above this, guess not.

Ever heard of Diakatana?
First person shooter developed by John Romero{Doom, Quake}, its probably regarded as one of the biggest gaming flops of the last 20 years.
And what was the console game that flopped and they ended up burying some of the copies in the desert? E.T i believe.

And for the record i would like to apologize to one and all for overhyping Cyberpunk.
Apologies......

I just can’t get into Cyber Punk, tried for three days but don’t care for it :thumbdown:

All of the copies of ET are buried here in New Mexico lol. I've known friends near Las Cruces and Roswell that went digging for the pits haha.

But agreed with the extreme overhype of Cyberpunk fellas. Much better gaming awaits.

I wonder if Sony removed it from their store just to get back at CD for saying there would be be funds without checking with Song first. What a disaster, glad i got much 60$ back.
