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

[toro]

I had to put the game down after 2-3 hours because honestly it's unplayable.

I have good fps on my system (80+) but the combination between fighting and looting is retarded. There is not one fluid fight. Everything is just a clusterfuck of bad animations.

This is my biggest gripe about the game. If combat is not fun then the overall experience will be shit.

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.

That would explain things.

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.

It is the game journos' fault this time. The developers were misquoted:

In fact, what they said was:

"Cyberpunk 2077 runs, surprisingly. Well..."

Restarted my playthrough today and went full blades - even on hard this is hilariously easy, I'm so strong I one-shot everyone, holy fuck boys this is the best. just unlocked the sword arms and goddamn I love them. I dislike that the same animation plays for every strong attack though.

How the fuck did you get them so fast? Did you play for 10h straight xD?

yes - but getting 20 street cred and 15k isn't something that takes ten hours. Just kill every ganger you see. Do it. Kill them all. Kill them all and you'll max out so fast.

Let's see what Reddits problems are currently:

https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/kb04ks/i_keep_accidentally_having_sex_with_men/

Time and again, they fall for the same traps. Ever since Zevran. Totally accidentally.

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.

So telepathic cops is a feature, not a bug? This is pretty lazy design, even Bloodlines let you kill humans unseen without cops showing up instantly, albeit at the cost of humanity.

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.

Major incline if real.

I really want to like this but the actual gameplay feels terrible.

According to this thread, and couple of others and streams of CP, I think gameplay might be at least decent if you pick stealth-hack route - at least in this case you will get some not so deep not so shallow stealth game, I think with right build and implants, with utilizig all tools game have, you could do everything via steakth route. Stealth, hack, and occasionally break necks and shoot from pistol with silencer.
Otherwise you could be Dildo Samurai and run around with your thrusty dildo unsheathed, bashing skulls in with it.
Oh well...

 

[DalekFlay]

I've complained about a lot of things, mainly stealth being shit IMO, but I have to say I'm not really having many issues with bugs. Yes some normal open world jank like pedestrians popping in out of nowhere or a guy sitting on air, shit like that, but nothing major. Nothing that hasn't been seen in dozens of other games. Not saying some don't have worse issues, I can only speak for myself.

 

[Dishonoredbr]

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.

Hey , it's their own fault that they decide to release on console instead of making PC exclusive. Don't blame the consumers or console, blame CDPR. It was their decision. If wanted to make higher profit of releasing the game for everything instead of making sure that game actually worked , that's on them.

Stealth is particularly shit in the beginning, but gets much better as you progress your character. Especially when paired with some quick-hacks. One-shot headshotting an enemy with silenced pistol is absolutely possible once you start to get stronger.

I think running a stealth-based character, feeling a solid sense of progression with it, and finding nice synergies with hacking are a few of the things that's making the game more enjoyable for me despite a number of glaring drawbacks.

Seems to be the case. Also, standing too close to a cop literally triggers them enough to pull out their gun and start shooting. Thus, come the warrant stars and the seemingly random amount of officers who teleport to your location.

I might go back to my stealth character and see where it goes since the assault route is really boring. Do you think you need both intelligence and tech? With only 50 attribute points to spend you can only max two trees and "cool" and reflexes seem like the obvious ones.

Bring 'em on. More pork on the barbie!

They're not red skull enemies are they?

Tech is really only useful to me for picking locks, but that's important enough to stealth build that I keep it pretty close to even with cool and reflexes. I also use it to help me handle explosive damage a bit better too, which it pretty useful I guess.

Another thing that makes the stealth gameplay much more satisfying to me is having the minimap HUD disabled. Well, it actually makes the whole game a lot more satisfying to me, but particularly stealth because you have to actually observe and study enemy placement and movement, rather than relying on the vision cones. Turned it off in the first half-hour of playing and never looked back.

"Overall, women make up 26 percent of CDPR's total staff, which is an increase from 2018. CDPR also pointed out that it's much higher than the Polish game industry average of 15.5 percent. The number of female developers working for CDPR has grown every year since 2017, and the percentage compared to men has stayed around the same, fluctuating between 24 percent and 27 percent."

Maybe that is the reason why they are getting worse and worse.

 

[Fenix]

I just do not understand how they went from Witcher 3 to this. Compare W3 prologue to this.

Probably many talented peole flee CDPR since then.

 

[Fenix]

I make breaks often, because my eyes hurt (I do not know what is wrong with the game, but my eyes legit getting tired and hurt after playing awhile)

Seriously? This could mean no go for me in like any future, never, ever.

There are only two or three women who've ever been the chief creative force behind a good game, and they all worked for Sierra On-Line during the previous century.

None of these women are capable of making good games anymore, though they have tried; then again, that also applies to most of the male has-beens who developed good games during that same era.

By the time 100% of a game development studio's staff are women, no games will never actually be released, because it's difficult for several dozen "community managers" to handle the programming and scripting side of things, even with the benefit of a development kit that does most of the work for them.

I usually care a lot about getting into places, yeah. However if intelligence is also needed that's a lot of shit to juggle with a 50 point cap. I'll have to look at the trees I guess, if I go back to stealth. Assault is pretty simple, body and reflexes for combat and tech for doors.

Traditionally male occupations have become more balanced of late, but as long as hiring is based on merit there shouldn't be a problem. Excluding fields where gender bound special strengths are needed.

 

[Fenix]

You shoot a dude in the head with a silenced pistol and it takes away like 20% of his health

It's not like that, I saw streams and you just need better pistol, a perk, and quality silencer with good dam. modifier on stealth shot, like x2.5 damage and 15% damage penalty instead of 30% will allow you to oneshot from steakth on last diffculty level. And they don't immadiately detect you after this.
I think it depends on PC stats probably? Gear?

You need at least a small team of autistic gamer nerds to come out with a good game, even when you have a larger team involved. These guys will carry the entire project forward towards something good. And it so happens autism happens more frequently among the male population.

What happened was to be expected. The shitty programming is the direct effect of having trannies infesting your company, and everybody knows that trannies cannot into binary.
