Cyberpunk 2077 [Merged]

[Erehy Dobon]

Agree 100%. The inside of the cars amaze me. It must have added so much time/work to make the interiors so detailed. It's tragic to me because first person driving is unplayable for me. I fishtail all over the place and run over pedestrians.

You do realize that 3D models of automobiles are readily available and have been since the beginning of 3D computer graphics?

Dropping in a detailed car model into CP2077 was kiddie play. The fact that the driving physics is wonky is inexcusable.

Driving physics in 3D games isn't new. Simulators have been around for half a century (they debuted in commercial usage). Hell, just watching CP2077 streams the driving in Super Mario Kart 64 is less buggy than CP2077.

There are tens of thousands of driving sim games and CDPR can't even get the basics down? This is a good example of some of the disconnect that some technologists suffer from and in this case CDPR apologists.

Heck, there probably three dozen companies in my city conducting autonomous vehicle test driving (not just big bad Waymo) ON REAL STREETS WITH REAL CARS.

The fact that CDPR can't even simulate basic automobile navigation in CP2077 is just another example of how unfinished this game is. And we're not talking about off-road rally racing or F1 physics.

Do you think Rockstar Games would put out a Grand Theft Auto title with such pathetic driving performance?

I'm really early into the main story because I've been doing so many side quests. I'm a netrunner and the main story I did last night just dropped a rare version of a netrunner hack I already have a legendary version of. I had a "Oh, I guess I should have done this story mission a long time ago" moment.

Even if I keep talking about doing the main story... I run into another side mission... and start leveling up again... lol

Spoiler: Don't know if you know

My quick hacks don't kill the enemy... so when they are all down, I shoot them in the head, and it gives my headshot experience points.

You do realize that people are allowed to like a game you don't like? And I said the *INSIDE* of cars amazed me. The decorations, colors, styles, steering wheel types, etc.

Exactly how I am. I spent an hour on a main mission story last night and I've been back to sidequesting today. Doing an interesting one with a cop right now.

Yes, that's fine. You are fortunate that your priorities allow you to enjoy CP2077 in its current state that is widely regarded as obviously unfinished and more seriously perhaps fatally flawed for legacy consoles.

The car model complexity is a singular example of CDPR's poor decision making in this game's development.

A car model with fewer polygons and textures would help with the performance issues. It's not like a console gamer can replace their PS4's APU.

CDPR knew that this game performed like crap on the legacy console hardware; it's not like the piss poor performance upon release suddenly surprised them. CDPR had access to production units of PS4 and Xbox One for the entire life of those two console generations.

They tried to pass off a half-baked cake as fully done and they failed miserably. They decorated it beautifully but the dough is raw.

If they had focused on more realistic goals for console performance, maybe the game would still be on sale in the PlayStation Store and there wouldn't be two shareholder lawsuits.

CDPR chose poorly.

The game isn't as bad as some people make it out to be. After 22 hour of gaming, I have:
-Encountered 6 visual bugs.
-2 gameplay related bugs.
-2 crashes

Basically, a lot less misfortune that some people experience using Windows or you average car infotainment.

Same. I played for 2-3 hours in the main story last night and was completely engrossed in it with zero issues. I did hit a crash this morning, but those are thankfully much less prevalent now.

 

[erayser]

There is no reason to put this much details in plants that we all just drive by in the game... ridiculous...

I played with the camera settings to see if it's close to real life... it's not... LOL... but then again, the glass I use on shoots are $1k to $2k+...

I used Adobe Lightroom on this pic to edit shadows... which I do on pics with heavy backlighting... and this is a video game. Crazy!!!

 

[MisterSavage]

Since I have money to burn from doing so many side quests even though I'm a "stealth" player I spent $100k on a projectile launcher that goes in my arm. Pretty fun!

Is that the legendary version? I have the rare version. I bought the legendary to see the difference, but I couldn't add my tranquilizer round mod to it... so I went back to my previous save.

Spoiler: projectile launcher + tranquilizer round

The rare + tranq mod is already OP... but it keeps people alive... which helps on the cyberpsycho side missions.

And yet another example of how CDPR misdirected their efforts. Excessive detail on something non-critical at the expense of performance and assets (texture size, number of polygons, etc.).

It's not that some players can't enjoy stuff like this but clearly this type of misguided game design choice has contributed to serious performance issues.

Yes! It was actually the only one he/she was selling. I had been shopping around at so many ripper docs the previous hour that I just said "screw it" and got the legendary one.

Very Blade-Runner 2049-ish themed:

“Outsider No More” is another great one from the soundtrack, just FYI!

 

[BlankStar]

nice try... jealous I ses?

Don't know why I should be jealous. I love RDR2 on the PS4 Pro. I'm just saying that releasing on different platforms can be a challenge and that even Rockstar can screw up things, hence the RDR2 pc release that came a lot later where CP2077 got released on all platforms. Don't get me wrong, CDPR should've delivered a higher quality product, but no need to praise Rockstar into the heavens.

They need to let us move stats to whatever piece of clothing we want. I hate when I have to look like a clown.

I can only imagine the look matches you in real life ;-)

I recommend buying a sniper. With it and height advantage + cover, you can take out enemies from far without the stress of close combats with guns or rifles.

I am a Katana guy but picked up a sniper yesterday. Its been game changing. I took out three netrunners in 2 and was rewarded 15,000 eddys

The weapon is a great compliment where taking out 6-12 enemies with quickhacks or a katana isn't possible.

I crafted me a smart sniper rifle, no need to aim anymore and it does more than 1K DPS. If Sony would made it easier to share screenshots, I'd post it here, but I'm too lazy to do the trillion steps to get a screenshot from my PS5 on an online forum. Unless someone can enlighten me, since I only have the option to share to twitter or the PSN party-chat.


I've finished all the side jobs and all the gigs, walking around with legendary weapons and gear. I started to clear out Watson in pursuit of the platinum trophy but I'm giving up. Those police jobs are so easy I'm starting to get really bored. Got the smart Arasaka rifle with exploding bullets (check @MisterSavage 's video some pages back) that I upgraded many many times and I can kill 6-7 people with a 30-round clip in 5-10 seconds.
Just gonna do the last main mission again to check a different ending and then I'm retiring the game until the first DLC or PS5-patch hits. It's been a fun ride Night City, but it ends here... For now...

Well done! Now that I have double jump i will invest in upgrading quickhacks so that I can take down 4-5 guys whether indoor or outdoor.

How many hours have you played?

 

[erayser]

I was only kidding about the game has too much detail... I was admiring the graphics of the game. Anyway... I'm still grinding away... not doing much of the main story yet... and I'm not bored. haha... Let's see your cyberware setups... here's mine at the moment...

It will be interesting on how we all differ in our setups...

Have you exploited any money glitches/bugs/hacks?

What’s the point of customizing characters when you can’t even see them?

Character customisation is the biggest waste of time in this game.

As previously discussed, you rarely see your character and neither would you want to as some ugly pieces of clothing have a higher armour level than fancy ones.

 

[maflynn]

Character customisation is the biggest waste of time in this game.

ITs weird, how you start with a buck naked person - including naughty bits (unless you have the nudity filter on) and from there craft a person that you will never see. There's so much time and effort put into that without any real impact in the game play. I did a mod being worked on that gives people 3rd person perspective while playing and that could help (not that I like 3rd person).

Instead they could have spent more time on making your players attributes less confusing and have the ability to fully respec you character

 

[erayser]

If you mean doing something outside of how the is meant to be played... no. I'm just doing the side missions and cleaning up the city. As I pass by marked people, I drop them from far away with quick hacks, and shoot them head for experience points.. and collect everything left during and after a mission. It's a grind... but I have unused 11 attribute and 17 perk points I need to use..

I'm starting to be committed to the netrunner: Intelligence route. I'm not good at shooting so I'm still deciding if I want to build my Body or Reflexes more. My OP weapon for clean up (run and gun) is the projectile launcher with the tranquilizer round mod. I'll do gun battles after I eliminate most of the enemy... if I start to die, I'll quick hack, or tranq them... However, the missions I enjoy is when they give you the option to finish the mission with without alerting the enemy... so maybe Stealth??? It's gonna be a long game for me... LOL

You can see your character in photo mode... but the armor makes my V look like a clown... hahaha I'm sure there will be a 3rd person mod... if you're into modding.

I just got my first smart sniper rifle. It is crazy watching my single projectile hone in on the target.

Do the caveman method and just take a picture of the screen with your phone!

I see my character all the time because I ride a motorcycle.

My character likes to go on shoots for his Instagram... Had to stop traffic for this shot... 😂

Currently doing a non lethal melee only play through on my Mac Pro. It's really fun and looks great!
