CD Projekt's Cyberpunk 2077 Update 2.0 + Phantom Liberty Expansion Thread

I played some more and it looks like Contagion got giga-nerfed. It won't even jump once now. It's possible that this is just a broken mod undoing the stats of my cyberdeck, but it wouldn't surprise me if it's intended.

Blind seems to be buffed on the other hand. It will completely disable an enemy for a much longer duration now.

CDPR will be steraming 3 episodes of anime edgerunners in a minute:

edit: deleted link, shitty censored version for twitch.

It's funny that their fix for contagion is to make it non-contagious.

Looks like a bug. I mean normal stuff like blind jumps no problem so contagion should.

I'm watching the show. Its pretty terrible. They just couldn't help themselves could they? they just had to set it in a classroom.
I'll say the crazy lol-i is a fun character though bout the only thing they got right, the rest of the show is terrible and they just trace over screenshots from the game for most of it.

 

[AwesomeButton]

I'm not up to date with the news on this - what is this anime porn stupidity? Are CDPR that desperate that they are pushing Cyberpunk-affiliated hentai now?

Edit: Aah, the filter. I get it.

 

[RobotSquirrel]

I finished the whole thing.

Spoiler

Adam Smasher not actually useless, Kills the protagonist, no one is sad because the guy was a jerk that killed an innocent waifu, smasher was alright but needed to be more vulgar like in the game. Becca (the Lol-i) was fun because she reminded me of Asuka from Eva with the constant yelling and swearing during battle but she was a fairly shallow character that deserved more development. The betrayal was predictable and lame. The main character's design went from worse to worse as the show progressed with their final form being just terrible. A very forgettable show not worth your time and doesn't do justice at all to the Cyberpunk lore, its similar to the game in that very little of 2020 is present here its just referenced like easter eggs.

 

[Tyrr]

I just saw some clips from the show, the animation and art looked very bad.
Any Ghost in the Shell animation looks better than this.

 

[Rahdulan]

It's a decent first episode, but might be either too much for someone unfamiliar with Cyberpunk 2077 or too little for typical crowd used to info dumps in the opening episode. Didn't exactly wow with stellar animations even if it does offset that with enough neon.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

why would anyone think it'd be anything but shit?

 

[Rahdulan]

Hmmm.

 

[Tyrr]

Hmmm.

Sounds like a threat.

Finished Edgerunners animation.
It's great. You should watch it.

Easily best Trigger studio work. 1st arc is top tier 11/10, 2nd arc 8/10

If they are smart they would give acthually good modding tools to community and give prize money to TOP5 best mods (voted by community + CDPR panel of judges) annually. No. 1 would be further co-developed with CDPR writers and coders into official DLC, modding team would get 20% of net profit from sales, and job offers once coopeartion is done. I'd do paid mods that way

The anime? Because it's made by the best studio in the industry with the best animator and best director at the helm.

Trigger+Yoshinari+Imaishi is a recipe for awesome.

 

[frajaq]

so hows the anime?

Might give it a watch for the visuals, but - going by the trailer - don't really like the various character designs. They look too isekai-ish, too clean (and youthful).

 

[GhostCow]

I just finished downloading it and will report back later tonight with my extremely biased opinion (I fucking love Trigger)

 

[DJOGamer PT]

They look too isekai-ish, too clean (and youthful).

That's just modern anime in general
The only exception is if it's from a distinguished artist

Sad!

 

[GhostCow]

You guys are really killing me with these digs at Yoshinari's art. Especially implying that he's not a distinguished artist. Go watch Kill La Kill and tell me he's not amazing. Even BNA, which is probably his worst work, looks fantastic when compared to anything similar.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

Good artist, bad art direction. Technique isn't everything.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

Also by "distinguished artist" I was specially referring to artists that have their own unique artstyle

In a perfect world we would see quality mods that improves the main design issues of the game, bug / stabilty fixes etc in that TOP5 best mods. But in reality we would see anime waifu companions and other useless dumbfuck mods for average Redditor.

Just finished episode 3. I have to say that I'm really enjoying it. There's something very nostalgic about it. They really nailed down the feeling of something created in the 80s. At one point in the first episode I felt like I was watching Bubblegum Crisis. The soundtrack is really good so far as well. There's tits and gore everywhere, which is new for Trigger, and something else that contributes to it feeling like an older anime.

One of my complaints so far is that they went a little too hard on making it like the game. Any time there is a phone call in the anime its just as annoying as in the game with the same UI popping up and same ringtone that V used. I'm also pretty sure the MC lives in the same apartment building as V. I also feel like Trigger went a little too hard on the pastels. It's not so bad that it makes it unwatchable to me like Promare was, but I'm not a fan.

8/10 so far. I think this might be a good anime to show to the kind of person who only really likes anime from the 80s and 90s and thinks everything made after 2009 is shit.
