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

At best you'll be able to build a likeminded team of 5 people who can make a mod for Deus Ex over 10 years.

we already did that lol.

Some of the little side-quests are actually quite cool.

Spoiler

I just did a gig from some random dude in Afterlife to go to an abandoned old slum area by the water and find something in a fridge among the shacks there, it turned out to be a Japanese surgeon who'd "accidentally" killed a gang boss and smuggled himself out of danger in the fridge, because the gang were still hunting him. Kevin ( ), the guy who gave me the job, hadn't told me any of that, so I had to lug this semi-conscious guy to a car for delivery to Kevin and safety, while occasionally putting him down and dispatching gang members looking for him. Naturally I was a bit pissed off with Kevin and the Jap, but I was mollified when they gave me a very nice katana for my troubles

Quite entertaining

I am the best surgeon.

My favorite so far is collecting cabs for Dalaman. Thought this will be just stupid collect 6 something...

Let's see what Reddits problems are currently:

Spoiler

My problem was that I didn't get an option to do to Angel what I did to Fingers. Which was punch him repeatedly until he was dead. Best scene in the game. Homo or not the guy was a creep and had it coming.

I wonder if anyone else has experienced this: When you first shoot a cop and your warrant level starts rising, an army of cops suddenly appear into the area, armed to the teeth. The street would be empty and, next thing you know, you're completely surrounded.

The armor system is fucking great. Kingdom Come Deliverance is shit compared to it.
A bustier that gives me twice as much armor than full body net running suit.
Amazing!

Seriously, some people in this thead are more clueless about what they are playing even than the gamejournos.

Can't wait until the new Diablo 4 comes out and the local autists start complaining that the game is still a braindead hack&slach and bitching that it's not TB, no C&C, and no interesting storyline.

But it's Activisio game!.. what you expected?
But it's Blizzard game!.. what you expected?
But it's Bethesda game! what you expected?
But it's X game! what you expected?

I EXPECTED GOOD GAME!
GOOD GAME NOT A PIECE OF SHIT!

Are you living under a rock? The last time I genuinely expected something good to come out (a game, a music album, a movie) was like 15 years ago. That’s the main difference between now and the 90’s: “How awesome it’s going to be?” vs “How shitty it’s going to be?”

 

[Lacrymas]

AAA games are just consistently terrible for quite a while now. The only ones worth a damn are "immersion sims" like Dishonored and nu Deus Ex. They have the money to both make them look good and have expansive level design you have a myriad ways to go through. Which is what Cyberpunk should've been.

 

[aweigh]

wow. no wonder they never allowed footage of the console versions to be shown lol

 

[Alienman]

That smooth 14 fps.

 

[Fenix]

Is this legit

It has now 3+ K of comments lmao, and while I was reading another dozen was added ahah.

 

[Dexter]

They didn't allow footage of the PC version either and DMCA'd all that shit before release, all the "critics" apparently had to sign lengthy NDAs and they did because they are fucking shills and wanted that Pre-Release "access", and in many cases apparently they weren't even allowed to play on their home PC but supposedly played a version streamed from CDPR's servers or something:

They outright refused to let anyone review the console versions Pre-Release and because of that to date there are still just half a dozen "console reviews":

he wanted to take a turn but the wall hadn't loaded yet lol

EDIT: the footage where it looks kinda ok is from the new next-gen xbox, he showcases both in the video

With CDPR becoming Ubithesda and Obsidian and Arkhane sucking the corporate cock of Microsoft, we will never have good RPG / Immersive Sims again. The genre is dead, the future is GaaS

Peripeteia, colloquially referred to by me as "Potato Ex" is looking good. Core Decay is also looking fine judging by the few minutes of video that's out.

Huh, never heard of these, thanks for the rec, internet peeps.

Although now that CP2077 is a gigantic flub, I should probably go back to crunching on my own games.

 

[Druid Ardun]

I've got the feeling that the devs presented the game to their corporate overlords as very progressive but trolled them big time.

Just a screenshot of tv news.

Spoiler

As far as I have seen, the game presents the setting very well and does not glorify its degenerate aspects as the progressives and what not wanted to believe.


Disturbing filenames you can find on a computer.

Spoiler

The game touches on very dark subjects sometimes. I am pleasantly surprised by the story and setting potrayal.

 

[agris]

Hopefully we get something akin to the Witcher 3 Enhanced Edition mod.

Its gonna need it, the popamole itemization will drive me crazy.

I hate to praise Ubishag but the one good thing about Valhalla is the way they did the weapons. Doing something similar in Cyberpunk with a set roster of guns that you spend time upgrading/modding would have been massive incline. This diablo/looter shooter item system is disgusting. It was terrible in W3 and its terrible here.

Wait - it kept the W3 itemization scheme?

Uuugggggghhhh

 

[Lyric Suite]

Maybe it's not CDPR that sucks maybe making your new shiny game that's heavy on newly released PC hardware run properly on shit peasant console tech is simply unfeasible.

Maybe we are finally seeing that multiplatform development just holds games back. No? Lol didn't think so either cry more normies.

 

[Alienman]

If it doesn't run on PS4 or whatever, then they shouldn't release it on those systems and lie about it. Whatever you think of consoles that is some shady fucking stuff, especially considering everything else going on around it. Can't believe people are defending this anti-consumer/customer behavior.

 

[Justicar]

This is how it looks and runs on my shitty pc.

 

[someone else]

I'm not here for the game, I'm here for the entertainment.

 

[Grampy_Bone]

Given how many years we've had to deal with shit console ports with gimped graphics, locked framerates, bad mouse support, etc. etc. I just have zero fucks to give that CDPR sold consoles out to dry.

That said, if you're going to release for a platform, you should probably check to see if it actually runs your game first.

Adding a pic to my earlier post:

It's a steam overlay issue. It doesn't matter if you are doing anything in the game, it still sets your status as away.

I'd say out of the 13 hours I've played, maybe 20-30 minutes have been proper cutscenes and 1-2 hours has been spent in dialogue.

RE: complaints about constantly replacing gear - are we just gonna ignore the fact that you can upgrade your existing gear? And so basically just the same gear the whole game if you want?

Complaints about this seem pretty overblown around here. While it's definitely not the loot system I'd like to see in the game, upgrades have neither been ineffectual nor too frequent for me. I've switched main weapon maybe 2-3 times with huge improvements between. Same with armor. Either ignore all the common shit, or pick it up and sell it if you want. It's actually a good thing that if an enemy is using a weapon to try to kill you, they drop it when when they die.
