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

[Mefi]

I've just parked it after 30 hours. It's Altered Carbon the video game. Cliche aesthetic done very competently, even for my potato, but a sense that there's a lot thrown in purely to tick boxes rather than for it to be explored beyond a very superficial level. It's a very fitting homage to the source material used but it doesn't make for a memorable CRPG.

My god that Regina gal is the Preston Garvey of the cyberpunk world, just fuck off you one eyed prick and let me gather my thoughts. Also where the hell are my fleshed out side quests, it feels like im playing some gimped ass saints row 3 tier quests right now. If I play 10 more of hours of this shit, this game goes straight to the dumpster.

Cyberpunk (as a genre) has always been very political and pretty left leaning. This is about the last thing one can complain about when it comes to the game, and people who cry about "SJW in my videogames" can be dismissed out of hand, they wont provide anything usefull to the discussion anyways.

Truth. But it is more anti-capitalist because of rapacious corporate greed which basically is where the world is headed with 10 mega corps controlling the planet. (((Media-Corp))), Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Google, Twitter are approx equal to Renraku, Arasaka, etc etc.

What was NOT part of Cyberpunk was the absolute degeneracy displayed in this game with trannies & dildos featured every 100 meters somewhere in game. There is a difference between the "rich/poor" dichotomy of cyberpunk and this nu-fag SJW fuckery which is a completely different animal entirely.

Ok, to my fellow F-haters who still haven't remedied the situation, here's how to quickly rebind your default action key from F to something else, courtesy of the folks who've been uploading these to the Nexus.

1. Go into the game's install directory, in Cyberpunk 2077\r6\config and make a backup copy of inputUserMappings.xml.
2. Open inputUserMappings.xml using any half-decent text editor, and do a Replace All for "IK_F" to "IK_<whatever>", for instance I picked "IK_Mouse4". Be careful that you include the quote marks when you do it, otherwise you'll also replace other stuff, like IK_F5!
3. Click Save. Bet you didn't see that one coming.

Should be 20 replacements if I recall correctly and it seems to be working perfectly all across the board, covers both environmental interactions and dialogue choices. The only thing I saw that wasn't affected was the Hold F bind for getting out of your car, but that has its own keybind in the options menu. I really do recommend using a mouse button if you've got one to spare, it's so much more intuitive, just be sure you don't bind something that's already set to another input.


Now if someone on the Nexus would figure out how to remove those bellend intro logos and cinematic that play on every startup, that would be just swell. And while we're at it, what's with all these games demanding you press a key to show the starting menu of late? What, do UI devs think we clicked the .exe just to admire the menu backgrounds? Fucking hell.

There's no such thing as a big RPG codex thread without some retard bitching about "muh SJWs", due to whatever random thing pisses him off about the game. Either because there's too much censorship and some breasts were covered, or contradictory, because of too many dildos. But suddenly it is "based and red pilled" when the "2% of cars commit 14% of the accidents" joke is being made. Fuck off already, (((retard))). You are off your rockers, and not seeing these inconsistencies probably means that you're brain dead.

What a bunch of bullshit -

 

[Alienman]

You didn't post a pic of your character.

Sorry, I was just about to do so but can't atm.

I play the game on geforce now and there are queues during the evening so I play in the mornings.

I will post it tomorrow.

Sounds cyberpunk.

I actually haven't seen a single dildo yet in my 15+ hours. Just sayin.

Probably another bug.

 

[Akkarin]

Some of y'all have serious issues. Complaining about Faggots and Negros in TYOOL2020 is just sad destroys any credibility you have. Also "negros" ? Is using the n-word too ordinary for you ? Spoiler alert: it doesnt make you any more intelligent than any other dumb bigot.

CDPR probably made a lot of money with this game but I don't know how good the future looks for them.

The future is simple. Plebs already in denial mode, and starts to rabidly defend the game.
Now look at this - they fix some bug, improve prefomance for PC, then release a bunch of free DLC that add this or that - for example, I think they cut out some thing just for "gifting" it later for FREE. Things like baebershops and such where you can change your hair and facial features.
After those ones alone thay will have their fanatical defenders again.
Then will be paid plot content, like in Witcher3 - maybe you will meet Ciri, rigth?
There is nothing bad for them, people are sheeps, especially today.
And then they will probably try to do multiplayer CP lol.

 

[AwesomeButton]

Yeah my earlier comments about them burning up goodwill are wrong. Looking at twitter, basically anyone that mentions the bad console performance has legions of dumb fucks going "LOL SHOULDNT HAVE BOUGHT IT FOR A SHIT CONSOLE TEEHEE". And replying to complaints of bugs with moronic shit like "LOL I PUT A HUNDRED HOURS IN NO BUGS NO GLITCHES GET A BETTER PC HEHEHEHE" so it seems they've elevated themselves to Nintendo-tier where an army of anonymous goons will melt out of the shadows to performative lick CDPR's boots at you if you criticize them. lol

Sounds like AwesomeButton and a few other people ITT, I love how he went from saying he barely had ~30fps on his 1080Ti, which is better than a 2080 and puts him into the Top 4 percentiles of PC Hardware on Steam at a point where the 3000 series isn't even really available to purchase and talking about how he had upscaled his image from 1080p, changed all sorts of settings and applied filters that ironically made it look much worse:

Here is some of my performance. Like I said, stable 40s indoors and dropping to ~35 fps in crowded streets with everything maxed out at 1440p on a 1080ti. If I switch to upscaling from 1080 to 1440 I get an unpleasant blurryness. Maybe I should try dropping some settings and see if I notice the difference, but the low framerate doesn't bother me so much yet. Disabling AA from Nvidia control panel didn't seem to do anything neither to the image nor to the framerate.

To just simply stating that his "old system runs the game at 60fps in 1440p at Ultra/high" and he "doesn't know what the fuck is there to bitch about" within a few days:

This is a 6 and a half years old system with a 3 and a half years old video. It runs the game at ~60fps in 1440p at Ultra/high. I don't know what the fuck is there to bitch about.

And what exactly is your problem? Those were the framerates I had while running the game in 1440p with no upscaling, and then with a 25% lower rendering resolution I got a ~25% improvement to framerate.

 

[CaffeineConquistador]

Posting pic of an female art director that is not that pretty to fit narrative with "leftist" agenda, rather than looking at what she did in game? We found an alt account of some OG Codex user.

"Not that pretty" She is fucking disgusting. An no im not an alt account. Im new and fresh.

Fuck off ya cunt! I am more offended that he thinks that drinking good vodka means you a communist lol! Good vodka always comes in red packaging! You should try drinking some CCCP vodka!

Listen its not per se about the vodka. But imagine if there the nationalsocialist equivalent with for example Hitler pic on the bottle. Then these people would loose their mind and demand that this facist studio gets closed or something. Thats my point. Its fucking hypocrisy.

Listen, dude - i know people that are far more disgusting than that - but you know what? Fat doesn't equals being second coming of jesus that is a leftist cyborg that gonna brainwash us into something. I still get the point, that fat/ugly/people with insecurities can have SOME weird looks on life etc. But that's not 100% sure. Should she work out? Maybe, but maybe there's a reason why she can't or whatever? I know that RPG Codex is like that, but damn, have a brain man. Go, look what she wrote/done in cyberpunk 2077 and then come back and say some things according to that. Otherwise, you are just as stupid as people that believe earth is a giant ass crack of squidward.

Here's a bag of flour. Just get a room and rail
that shit.

 

[Akkarin]

Also, just FYI for everybody going on about dev time: the real development only starten in 2015-2016, after TW3 was finished. Everything from 2014-2016 was basically pre-pre-production.

This topic makes me genuinely glad that I don’t play games anymore and that the money I have are much better spent on a new turntable rather than a gaming rig. I remember this confusion from 2006 when playing Oblivion for the first time. “Eh, what’s wrong? Does this game suck or is it me? Do I enjoy this? I’m not sure…” And then countless forum posts debating every aspect of the game, people trying to convince themselves it’s great, insults, warnings from mods – everything being so futile, everything but actually playing and enjoying the game like in the old days. What a tragic image.

The only real TRUE post so far itt.

 

[Generic-Giant-Spider]

Just to invoke even more despair, a reminder:

So, is this the game you're playing?

The people that showed the passion to convince Pondsmith are the same ones that likely left.

 

[Lacrymas]

This is obviously not a product of 8 years of development. It's probably more like 3, with the only thing they've inherited from past attempts being the map. The gameplay seems rudimentary at best, not even close to other contemporary AAA games that came before.

CD Projekt's attempt at depicting disabled people.

 

[Semiurge]

secondly, jesus christ the keanu reeves voice acting is terrible. He sounds drunk as fuck and not in a "my character is drunk" but in a "fuck a fucking video game im doing a bottle of tequila and doing one take for each line" way.

VO acting, the "Soft Parade" method.

I read someone's post which may have been poorly worded, but went something like: "this is not much of an RPG, is it? You can't customize your hair after character creation, you can't get tattoos, you can't customize your vehicles or your appartment".

Fucking hell, we've gotten to the point where GTA V is unironically considered an RPG.

Witcher 2 got barbers via patch so surely this will. Can't imagine why it couldn't be done.

Holy shit 40 minutes of credits! What is this the manhattan project?

It's part of the "cinematic" experience.

Oh fuck off

Maybe it's the new fashion, letting your peen hang out?

Send a pic of your V. I mean the character, not your, you know.

You do not want to see his tuckjob.

I guess the 2070s are just like the 1970s and extremely short shorts made a comeback

Could be a reference to the pantless peasants of W2 and 3.

Pretty much there was a big reboot in 2017 and several key devs left the studio and there were several anonymous devs saying that the project was in production hell.
https://www.gamepressure.com/newsroom/cyberpunk-2077-loses-key-developers/zc561

Mateusz Piaskiewicz had been the Lead Level Designer
Derek Patterson was filling the role of Senior Gameplay Producer
was the Project Manager Ovidiu Traian Vasilescu,

CDP didn't even try to deny those rumours and now we see the result.


People need to stop spamming the 8 years crap.

 

[Funposter]

Human Revolution and Mankind Divided are stealth-centric games. That's why the devs heavily incentivize it with big EXP rewards. Combat is better understood as a quasi failure state like in Metal Gear Solid.

My issue with HR was that it provided you clearly hack route and stealth route every god damn time rather than playing on its systems. Good alternative to that model are Hitman games where you use systems rather than scripted routes or even first Deus Ex. 77 is more of a first Deus Ex than NuDE in that sense.

What i feared about 77 was that they would go with HR design of 3. shoot your way, hack your way and stealth your way for each there is scripted route for you. But from what i play this is much more systemic and more shall i say gameplay oriented much like MGS5 or Hitman.

The Metal Gear Solid reference was more to do with 1-3 and the way that combat as a failure state means depletion of resources which you will eventually need to be using in a boss fight.
