Will check this on my PS5 once I got out of work, really good CDPR is fixing this but cant deny is a big WTF they release a game on these conditions and it was worst originally, seriously look at the list , fix, fix, fix and pure fix. Lol.
CDPR is not fixing the game but salvaging their reputation. Bit of a difference there. Intent does matter in this case.
Sadly, they'll only be able to fix what's broken(maybe) not what's missing. Again, big difference.
Too many gameplay and design concessions were made in order to release it. So unless they No Man Sky the shit out of it the game will still be a shell of what it was promised and it'll suck regardless.
I don't really know nor care if Cyberjunk 2077 was the second coming or not. All I know is that at this current state is trash, management is trash and the game was gutted from what CDRED PROJEKT themselves promised. Not my fault.
Second of all I couldn't care less about the Witcher 3 as that's a different type of game from a different series with a different agenda, goals and vision. So...yeah. Not relevant. Unless you're talking about the crunch culture and the workers abuse...then in that case, you have a point...I guess.
"Why would anyone have grandiose expectations for a game coming from a dev..." Stop it right there buddy. No need to go any further. I didn't have any grandiose expectations I just hold them to what they themselves promised. Again, their fault not mine.
If a dev promises a jump button and they don't deliver then, yeah, fuck them. They lied and they suck. If a dev promised a full blow RPG system mirroring the Cyberpunk source material and a myriad of other gameplay mechanics, not currently present, and instead vomits whatever this is then, yeah, fuck them. They lied and they suck (management and higher-ups not the workers).
"Srsly Turn on the brain. It's there for a reason."
Oof, I see you struck while the irony was hot, didn't you?
"How exactly do you fix something that isn't in the game?" If I need to explain it, while at the same time name dropping No Man Sky, then I would be wasting my time. You clearly have mastered the counter ability of turning off that brain at will. Brilliant.
At the very least we now know your Google-Fu skills are lacking, maybe even your reading comprehension skills as well.
Its def not shallow and uninspiring. The dialogue and voice acting is great, the world is big, and there are a LOT of dialogue options including ones I didn't get that my other friends had for their playthroughs. I actually really enjoyed V's voice actor for both the male and female voiceover. The game is really fun. The combat is even fun. They just need to tune the AI, fix more bugs, and add some more features. Car customization would be nice, more story quests, more races, more explorable buildings, even a subway would be fun as hell to explore. Game is honestly missing some content but it's not a bad game despite these things. I thouroughly enjoyed the story.
This game should have never been released on last-gen consoles. How many of these problems could have been fixed before release if they hadn’t bothered with the One/PS4 ?
While you have a point they made witcher 3 on last gen consoles. This game shouldn't have issue running on pro and x. Bottom line is this game need one more year of development. Other big open world games run good on last generation consoles and this game isn't doing anything that hasn't been done before where it can't run on last generation consoles. Cyberpunk isn't a next generation RPG it's barely an RPG so CDPR hyped this as the next best thing but we will have to wait for others like R* to deliver
Whilst Cyberpunk 2077 was announced in 2012, it never start full development until 2016. It wouldn’t be wrong to question whether or not the XB1/PS4 were ever the actual target hardware. Cyperpunk 2077 only runs well on the PS5 and Series S/X due to raw hardware power and fast memory. High end PC was must of always been the hardware target, and the tile was poorly scaled down to last gen consoles.
2016 - 2020 it was advertised for last gen. It was their target but hey couldn't make it work, because apparently no one on their staff had any serious experience dealing with the AAA console space. So, they panicked and fell back on what they knew, they made it for high end PCs without telling anyone. I also think it was in deeper dev. before 2016, but they are saying this to not look stupid, but this is just speculation.
Im wondering what the active player count is these days. I know once I beat the main story I was finished with the game until next gen versions drop and the bugs are fixed curious to what the stats look like now it's been a bit over a month
Doesn't matter how many fix patches they throw. This is embarrassing for them. How many patches are you going to throw? I don't mean to be negative, but this is the company that made 1 ''good'' game and got put on a pedestal. People saying they are ''Gods''. We will never forget this CDPR.
Witcher 3 was not good at launch either, and they had to patch it dozens of times. No one seems to remember how angry everyone was when they heavily downgraded the graphics of the game from what was initially shown either. I still enjoyed the hell out of it, as I did with Cyberpunk, but Witcher 3 at launch was ROUGH. Broken quests, bugs galore, poor horse and character movement, frame dips and freezes, even save file corruptions by simply using the suspend feature. It was a much different feeling game a year or so after launch.
Was actually enjoying it although it does crash at least once a day on my PS5. Was going to continue to play it but my refund went through, so might as well play it when the next gen patch is out.
Started playing RDR2 since then, omg... that is crazy good.
Finished this meh game and never looked back. What? going to sit and stew and wait for it to become what it should have been? Hey more power to you jackballs that feel that massive updates and fixes are okay and a necessity in your gaming lifestyle. Apparently rushing out the door broken and unprepared is a accepted state of normalcy for some. Not here. What a greedy disappointment upper CDPR turned out to be. Serious big middler-finger (with a lame euro-cyber-cowboy hat on) to the CDPR executive staff. Next.
Too bad, you can't patch a broken reputation.... (drum roll... cymbal hit)
I suppose at least they're fixing the game, but I wonder when they're going to do something about the AI in the game, the police response times are still a joke, and the same can be said about all automatons in the city. Rockstar managed to create a city that felt "real" with convincing reactions from the citizens, and GTA V is nearly 8 years old.
Well, they may have fixed bugs but it seems its come at a cost of graphics and AI. Pre 1.1 patch on my PS5 the game was running relatively glitch free - nothing too obvious at least. Now I'm getting wierd textures, graphical glitches, a stream of traffic in the distance - in the middle of the desert which disappears when I get closer. I'm getting cars flying through the air at crossings, the sound of gun fights but no fighting anywhere to be seen. All this in about an hour of play since downloading the patch. Now dont get me wrong, the game wasnt perfect, but I was probably getting one or two glitches over 3 or 4 hours before and nothing that made me go... what the fuck? But now, theres so many glitches all over. That, and the game still crashes. Not as frequent, but I crashed at the end of my first race so had to do it all again - it didnt replicate when on my second play of it.
I am a big fan of the Witcher 2 and 3 games , but I have completely lost interest in Cyberpunk. I don't have a PS5 or a capable pc to play it and when I have one, I'll probably be occupied with other games.
The game is torn in two wanting to be both an rpg and a gta clone. Sadly it ended up neither and just a mess. There will be version of CP2077 worth playing ONE DAY. I tried it but can't play it like it currently is. Based purely on my own estimates, I'm giving it a years worth of patches 1st.
Will check this on my PS5 once I got out of work, really good CDPR is fixing this but cant deny is a big WTF they release a game on these conditions and it was worst originally, seriously look at the list , fix, fix, fix and pure fix. Lol.

A drop in the bucket hotfix list made to sound more important than it is.
I'm still having fun. Its a shit show of a release... and "apologies...." I still enjoy it, though. Hope there are lessons learned.
