I was going to post a link to this earlier, but then I just shrugged.. did anyone honestly expect different?

I'm just hoping that patch 1.2 delivers...the previous patches/hotfixes were minor and I'm expecting this to be the first significant update...I don't care about the delay as I haven't bought the game yet but plan to as soon as the game receives a major patch or 2

My reaction to this is a big shrug. I have 2 playthroughs in and had a great time.

I guess the developer and tons of other players and review sites are wrong then and they shouldn't be patching or fixing anything on PC since the game runs perfectly and you finished multiple playthroughs

Huh? They can fix/patch what they want. I was simply stating that I had a great time. If you took anything from that beyond what I typed, I'm sorry. The patch was delayed. I already played it so I'm not worried about any delays, hence the shrug.
 
I've moved on, but would be happy to finally complete the broken quests I was never able to finish. For all I know they might unlock other quests, too. Can't say I feel any particular desire to go back and replay the whole game yet, though. I figure that might be in the cards in 12-18 months. By then they'll probably have the game in a more "final" state with the DLC added in. Maybe some of the peculiarities with the police and OP'd abilities will be tweaked, too.
 
I'm at 175 hours total, near the end of my second play.

Honestly, I got kind of bored of it, but I still want to finish my run since I'm close to the end.

Playing Silent Hill Homecoming right now, I actually like bad games.

So salty.

I guess still being in the top selling games on steam means that CDPR can't make Triple A titles anymore and better just do indie titles.

the game is buggy as hell and is going to take multiple patches to get fully right...that is not in dispute no matter how many copies it sold or its place on the Steam Charts...the developer has acknowledged this and apologized and CDPR's rep has taken a huge hit...

i played it for 120+ hours, it wasn't that buggy for me. I think I had 2 missions I had to restart using a save, some minor weirdness like T poses and my player losing their clothes but that was about it. Maybe a car being in the road or flying into the air randomly but not very often.

I've said it multiple times in this thread that bugs don't have to mean game breaking bugs...things like AI acting wonky or characters losing their clothes are just silly immersion breaking bugs but they still need to be fixed...just because you can finish the game in its current state doesn't mean the game is not in need of some major patches

I never saw wonky AI, no one but my own character lost clothes and it was only in the menu. Only "wonky" ai was cyber guys having trouble with you at higher ground where they couldn't get to but they at least kept trying. if things like this were constant all the time, yes, immersion breaking, but they were rare and didn't distract from any enjoyment I was getting.

I hear the police AI system needs a lot of work

all things being equal you would want the game to not have those issues so that's what I mean by immersion breaking...for my 1st playthrough I would like the game to be in better shape as I don't replay most single player games immediately...your first playthrough is always the best because everything is new so you want that experience to be the best it can be

god you are so salty its hilarious! Btw, you called for them to do indie titles, its pretty clear your nickers are in a twist.

Very few are denying its buggy, or that it needs fixing but hammer on anyway.

you know that was a sarcastic remark so stop it...

Given your constant hammering, was it really sarcastic.

You haven't even played, trust the people posting here more than your media circle jerk, the game runs fine on pc with a few glitches. It has other problems around its gameplay loop that keep it from being ground breaking, but its still a solid PC game.

there's nothing wrong with waiting for Patch 1.2...just because a game is in your words "playable" is not enough of a barometer as far as a 1st experience playthrough...even the most buggy games are playable...I could have finished Arkham Knight PC on release day as it was technically 'playable'...

Yet you are on almost every page practically screaming about how buggy and broken the game is.

Nothing in my playthrough broke immersion, glad you have that stick rammed up so far, but maybe just chill and wait till its acceptable to you, instead of constantly jumping up and down angry.
 
The game is riddled with bugs, no question, but it's playable. I had only 1 crash in 175 hours of playing. Seen a lot of jankiness but overall not many serious bugs.

Probably the worst thing I had was one mission that was bugged, I had beat it and forgot, and then it showed up on the map anyhow. Spent a few hours trying to fix it (I wanted the achievement) but then I saw I already had the achievement.

Otherwise, sometime you might die from jumping over a box or something small. This is annoying, but I learned to save constantly so it's not the end of the world.
 
That's a great summary!
Mine is; save like it's an RPG, missions occasionally glitch (but only one reload required in 2.5 playthroughs), loads of minor bugs, still a great game.

exactly...at least some people can be impartial and admit the obvious...for others it seems like admitting that there are tons of bugs is somehow betraying their love of the game..."I've only seen 1 bug, 1 character glitch etc"...c'mon dude really??...it's OK to admit a game you like a lot is buggy as hell...the developers even admitted as much!

There are, for sure, however there is nothing game breaking that I came across in nearly 200 hours in game. I don't see any reason why people would still be waiting to play if they have the system that can handle it. SO good!

Haven't played it yet, waiting on feb patch. But what can you do in the game for 200 hours?
 
I've played more buggy games than CP2077. Some features are outright incomplete as mentioned, but it wasn't that much worse than many other AAA games.

There are tons of side missions and filler activities. And the gameplay is good enough that it is fun to do them even if it does nothing towards the story. 200 hours on hard difficulty is about enough to clear the map twice. I have 120 hours in it, and only fully completed the game once yet.

Exactly what? You haven't even played the game, yet you can be found in every one of its topics every day since release trying to convince those who have played it that it is bad. So it's funny that you'd mention impartiality, how would you know?

It seems to me that you are desperately trying to convince yourself that you made the right decision to wait. While fighting waves of fomo.

At this point I'd probably wait to. I assume some bigger patches are coming in the next month or two. May as well wait.

But it is playable now.

No one has an issue with waiting, but Polonyc2 has been in this forum constantly posting like he knows what he is talking about, but is really just parroting the media.

He may say his issue is that he is waiting, but he jumps on just about anyone saying anything good about the game to harp on how buggy it is, when he has no idea how buggy it is. Sure seems like M76 is right and its a bad case of FOMO.

If it is just a case of the game is buggy and I'm waiting, the logical post would be "hey guys, how buggy is this game these days?" rather than acting like he knows what he is talking about.

Seems silly to me to claim you want to wait until bugs are fixed so you get a better experience. But then constantly read and watch videos about the game so much that when you finally play it you're going to know everything that's going to happen.

And constantly suggesting that the opinion of those who already played the game and liked it is somehow invalid, while his opinion is impartial despite anything he may know is at best hearsay, at worst youtube hatemonger reporting.
 
I was eagerly awaiting this but with the whole gpu thing have held off since I couldn't run it on my laptop at high settings. I will say this though: this game seems to be right in step with this entire year of 2020 as being one disaster after another. I do hope that the devs can make it into masterpiece with patches and DLC after enough time has passed. When I buy the GOTY edition I'll probably be glad I didn't play it when it came out.

It will never be a masterpiece. The game just isn't that good, from a story perspective, to the core gameplay. It will get polished up into a fairly competent and fun game. When I played it there were only minor to moderate bugs remaining, not much that could be game breaking. As it is, the game is good. It will just never be great. The story certainly wasn't memorable. It won't be something that lives on in my memory for many years, unlike more impactful games I've played in the past. But if you're looking for an open world shooter/RPG that is fun to play you can't go wrong with this.

temper your expectations...maybe the eventual CP2077: Enhanced Edition in 2023 will be the masterpiece people were expecting from the base game but just like with the first 2 Witcher games it's going to take a major overhaul with the addition of more RPG elements, more distinct life path branching story paths, more dialogue etc...the current game is great eye candy with good gameplay but don't go in expecting something groundbreaking
 
Yeah, I don't see the game ever being a masterpiece or even something we'll look back on 5-6 years from now. Assuming they fix all the major bugs and tinker with the gripes people have, I still see it as a solid "B" at best.

That said, if you haven't bought it, I wouldn't necessarily be in a rush to buy/play it right now. The game is only going to get better/cleaner, so you might as well wait unless you're bored or you have some kind of gift certificate that might expire.
 
Its not a masterpeice, but it is a solid A especially if you have the hardware to run it with all the bells and whistles. The game and animations are downright beautiful and at times the best I've ever seen. Idk, i think with some tweaking, maybe a dlc or two, it could very well hit masterpeice territory, but what do I know.

It definately suffers from being too open.

Cyberpunk 2077 hack resulted in Devs Being Locked out of PCs for 2 Weeks

Current employees—who are largely still working from home, according to Bloomberg—reportedly had to send their computers back into CDPR’s IT department for malware scans...

Whatever...Sounds fishy. Sounds like a big publicity stunt. I don't see how the devs could get locked out of their own computers. There's no way.

Depends how you handle remote work.

Could be as simple as a naïve VPN setup. Run something something compromised off a mapped network share and congrats you're crypto'd.
 
I think what was meant was that, as part of the recovery from the hack, they needed employees to send their computers back to the office, causing the downtime.

You can imagine with hundreds (or thousands) of workers, it could take a long time to verify who was or was not compromised, and they likely also shut down the VPN (or at least limited access) until they were sure the hackers were gone.
