That is true. You're paying the same MSRP price of a lesser version POST PATCH.
There are so many things they did wrong here and since Poland is in the EU and those guys are incredibly aggressive towards false advertising or consumer violations... there are quite a few ways CDPR can get fucked here.
Depends, shit has happened in the past where they let them off with a slap on the wrist if they hire refugees and bog down the company with retards as a stop gap so the higher ups escape with golden parachutes whilst everything else deteriorates into a walking corporate corpse and it just depreciates in value until it gets bought up by a larger entity and shuffled around in corporate portfolios years from now.
Yeah, but the European Union has been looking for a reason to hurt Poland.
Speaking of - trying to clear the game on that version, so far haven’t had any crashes or major bugs. Granted, I’ve just cleared “The Heist”, and its once the game opens up that it starts to shit the bed, but it seems like they’ve managed to at least duct tape the worst issues.
Keep in mind, Poland (you could argue Eastern Europe as a whole) has more or less been telling refugees to Fuck Off for years now - its almost like they have a historical precedent for doing so - so that options kinda out. As for retards, they hired Canadians - worse, they hired Quebecers (the pseudo french who’ve had at least 3 failed votes to leave Canada), and as the Canadian I have to apologize for them...
News to me. Erdogan pulled his little chair stunt and the EU shrugged it off like rain on a raincoat. I think they can overlook some overpriced video game.
Nah, Poland has been pissing off the EU for a lot of different reasons -- most of them involving Poland's lack of fucks to give regarding hate crimes. CDPR is one of the more valuable things Poland has if not the most valuable and what I'm saying is that they might use this fiasco to punish CDPR to punish Poland.
it has quiet down a bit, it was mainly during the 2015 immigration idiocy and it's aftermath, like orban telling the EU to fuck off when they demanded hungary can't built a
Almost certainly performance reasons. Having a low FOV saves resources by rendering less at any given time. Considering the state of the game, a 90° FOV would probably tank the frame rate.
If EU can fine Google or Facebook they can CDPR. If enough people raise a stink about the advertising practices of CDPR they might get hooked too. Especially from the investors' standpoint as they were shown old builds that misled them.
Supposedly the canceled multiplayer was a near carbon copy of GTA online. My theory is some CDPR exec saw the absurd amount of money GTA online was making, got greedy and demanded the game be scrapped and remade to fit that model.
