I pointed out the history of the game, you fucking waste of oxygen, in response to someone going, " herrrr derpppp Why can't CP2077 have the augments of DX in it?" You can't read can you you fucking illiterate piece of shit?

I hate to tell you this you fucking waste of a lifeform but Cyberpunk does not have augments. They have cybernetics which are different. CDPR chose to adhere to the rules and worldbuilding of the creator because they respected him.

His fucking retarded observation about the augments is just that... retarded.

Just admit that you're a fucking idiot that knows nothing about games and the history of it.
I know very well about the history of both games, their progenitors, and their genre as a whole. When he says "augmentations" as it refers to Cyberpunk 2077 it's pretty clear what he's talking about. If you don't get that you can go ahead and keep hurling asinine insults at anyone who tries to explain something to you.

Translation: Herr derrr I r stupid.

If you knew the history of the games then why did you post that moronic shit huh? Are you defending your boyfriend from criticism of his idiotic ideas?

My only contribution to your exchange was to tell you that you seem too attached to his, unfortunate, use of the word "augmentation" to describe, what he clearly meant as, "skills and/or abilities", instead of confronting his actual point.

Oh so you came in to attack me when I pointed out the history of the games and wanted to protect fair maiden's honor.

No, he said AUGMENTS which is DX's version of cybernetics. Do you want me to pull sources to show how much of fucking retard are over this? I shall because I never get tired of showing fucktards their comeuppance.

JC Denton begins with three pre-installed augmentations and may install additional augmentations into slots in various parts of his body. There is one slot each for arms, legs, cranial, and eyes, two subdermal slots, and three torso slots. Additional augmentations are installed using augmentation canisters. Each augmentation canister contains two augmentation options that the player must choose from. This choice is permanent. Once an augmentation is installed, it cannot be removed or swapped for a different one. Installing an augmentation consumes the augmentation canister. For augmentations that go in the subdermal or torso slots, it is possible have both option from one canister type, provided that two copies of that canister are found.

Almost all augmentations are active abilities that require bioelectric energy. Infolink and IFF, which are pre-installed, are the only augmentations that function passively without requiring the use of energy.

Oh look they're talking about cybernetics and not skills. How is it to go through life with 2 functioning braincells?

You are literally having a meltdown over "iT's NoT aN aUgMeNtAtIoN iT's A cYbErNeTiC". That is some very sad nerd shit.

I wonder what this pathetic tirade reminds me of. Oh, that's right:

Here's the thing. You said a "jackdaw is a crow."
Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.
As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.
If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens.
So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too.
Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't.

It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?

:M:M:M

Oh and I'm not about to start calling augmentations "cybernetics", just because some manchild will be triggered otherwise.

I always thought the "OMG! VENTS!" thing was kind of hilarious because it's basically just another hallway except without enemies when you think about it. I don't think it's good design, but people seem to love it so eh

Exactly. Deus Ex invented that feature and people hyped it up for it! Now it almost has to be in any game that wants to give alternate rules...

The stuff like leaving floating crap in though is probably just a sign they've largely given up on the game and are focusing their limited resources on Witcher 4 or whatever.

If all the items you find in the CP2077 world were manually placed in the map and not randomly spawned, the main problem is that it's the most tedious and boring job to fix them so probably nobody wants to do it! I did something similar with floating stuff in Bloodlines and it only worked because somebody else send me screenshots and I didn't have to go and check the whole world myself.

you know i noticed something else about this game. the music sucks. it's simply not good. i don't see anyone praising it so i must not be the only one thinking this. how do you make a cyberpunk game without a great soundtrack? deus ex, human revolution, ruiner, the shadowrun games, the ascent, literally every cyberpunk game i can think of has a amazing soundtrack and it usually adds so much to the general mood of the game. the game related music stuff is alright if not exactly memorable but the radio itself is so bad. just bland and lazy, i can barely tell the difference between the different electronic music stations, the jazz station has what feels like 5 songs on it. the ponpon shit j-pop song you hear everywhere in the city makes my ears bleed and i don't care if it's bad and annoying on purpose it still sucks.

it's not even about having no synthwave or anything like that, when they hired the artists to make the music for the radio they once again chose marketing over quality. you have run the jewels which is reddit in rap form. you got a pertubator tune but i'm not sure if he saw the game before and just put in really low effort because it's bland and sucks. i could name 20 electronic music artists on soundcloud or bandcamp who make really cutting edge music that sounds like it could come from a dystopian future and cdpr would have paid a fraction of what they spent on celebrity artists.

listen to this stuff, there is nothing in cyberpunk 2077 that even comes close:











i heard there are already some radio station mods being worked on thank god

Then they shouldn't have. You'd have half an argument if the game were otherwise trying to be faithful to the source material, but that flew out the window the instant "FPS" got stamped onto its forehead. This isn't some RTwP vs. TB bitchfest, 2077's mechanical requirements are altogether different from its tabletop "source." And whether it's multiplayer design, adherence to source material, or plain old incompetence, it doesn't change that CBP 2077's character progression is a drab, uninspired clusterfuck in a world where even Fallout 4's skills system is more compelling and Deus Ex showed you how to do augs right twenty years ago.

"Oh, but the cyberware's faithful to the tabletop!" Whatever, it's shit. We're discussing the videogame here, if you wanna talk tabletop, hit the Gazebo.

Yep, the argument isn't about fictional contextualisation, it's about gameplay. It doesn't really matter what you call 'em, "augmentations", "cyberware", "psi abilities", "spells", the game would've benefited from the same class of gameplay features dating back to Ultima Underworld and beyond - extraordinary, active, "magic" abilities, which we've seen work best with a dedicated "mana" resource. Instead, we got flat enhancements, like extra encumbrance and a second armour bonus. Big whoop.

no i know what diegetic music means. what i meant was that none of the ambient music in cyberpunk, while okay or decent, can compete with the ambient music in other cyberpunk themed games and i posted examples. i know music is highly subjective but none of the music you posted gives me the feels that i get from listening to "limb" from deus ex human revolution or that susumu hirasawa tune from ruiner.

i didn't post any diegetic music from other games but i can do that right now.







4 radio stations from the 20 year old gta 3. every single one has more soul than any radio station in cyberpunk. personally i think rise fm and msx sound more futuristic to me than any song from the cyberpunk radio. then you have game fm which plays non commercial sounding hip hop while the rap radio station in cyberpunk sounds like something from a redditors playlist. the radio in cyberpunk doesn't even have commercials or radio hosts (for the most part). it just sounds bland and soulless compared to this 20 year old stuff. what songs from the cyberpunk radio do you like?

Some Poindexter on the dev team decided to drop the synth station. In my opinion it's all that's missing. The rest of the soundtrack is OK, but the lack of radio DJ banter to pad out the playtime makes the abysmally short station loop glaringly obvious, which leads to the songs becoming grating over time. Add to this the fact that the diamonds in the rough that are actually really good are extremely short 1-2 minute songs.

I r a dumb ass and can't form a coherent argument on why CP2077 should follow DX worldbuilding.

You don't say.

I pointed out the history of the games your pile of shit. If you can't comprehend a simple lesson on why CP is different then DX then you should seek treatment at the local retard farm.

I actually like the soundtrack. There's some cool ambient scores, some nice tracks on Morro Rock and a few other stations. I even like their fake Samurai album, I think they did a good job with the music. Nothing blew my socks off or anything and yes, other games have done better, but I thought it was enjoyable.

I do wish the game had a good comical talk show, though. It's the one thing I really liked about Vice City - Maurice Chavez on VCPR. Bethesda, Obsidian, CDPR, they've all done snippets but not the full deal.

Correct, I didn't say that. :smug:

Yes, you did. And nobody cares because we weren't talking about history or worldbuilding, we were talking about gameplay mechanics. And no, I don't want to take your twelve-step program.


P.S. Happy New Year!

Has anyone tested the CP77 VR mod? Or perhaps there are several different ones?.

Since the graphical side of the game appears to be its strongest selling point, porting it over to VR would be a logical step (of course assuming you can make it work well). And the strict first-person perspective makes it a good fit. If I had a headset and a non-potato PC, I'd be tempted to buy/"aquire" the game to simply go around the world and explore its environs in VR.

Has there been any signs at all that there will be any further support of this game? Expansions etc?

3/4 of CDPR still works on C77 and they are hiring like crazy for C77. There were supposed to be 2 expansions for C77 before Multiplayer releases which was supposed to be cash cow for CDPR much like GTA online is for rockstar.

Is that still true or was that the plan before all the issues with the release? My impression was that perhaps the issues were so big that they simply moved on to the next project?
