Hooray! You've won Most Original Cyberpunk 2077 Update Post of All Time! Thank you for your contribution, and we're looking forward to you posting this same braindead comment next update!
Never tried it after consciously skipping it on release due to lacking optimization for series X and not enough power on my desktop. And then life happened and I never found time. This sounds pretty good, glad to see they’re still improving it. I loved Witcher III even thought I was several years late, looks like this might be similar.
I enjoyed playing it on release, but having just started another playthrough after buying Phantom Liberty, I gotta say, the base game is still pretty buggy. Still fun though, would recommend!
And now a serious response: it ran, just before the Add-on dropped, on my 4790k and a RX6600 on 1920x1200 flawlessly with no bugs, at 60 fps on high settings. This game is now well optimized, and a fantastic experience. It took a while, but the wait was worth it!
Although I will say that by now the goalpost has long moved from 60 FPS and you really want to be aiming at 144 or more. That being said, without raytracing on - which is mostly disappointing anyways - there are some really high framerates achieveable by now.
I don’t know, I think it’s more down to personal preference than that. I get that competitive FPS players want to push frame rates as high as possible, but for me personally I have the exact opposite opinion as you. I have no real need to chase hundreds of FPS, at a stable 60 games feel smooth enough (maybe my eyes are bad). On the other hand, several games have a dramatic improvement in presentation with Ray Tracing on, in my opinion, which I value a lot. Both Cyberpunk and Alan Wake 2 for example look notably better with RT on.
In what world is Cyberpunk’s ray tracing disappointing? Some shots I took while playing over the last month or so. I’ve never seen a better graphical showpiece.
Pretty good examples for how disappointing it is, tbh aye.
If you told me both sides were different settings of baked lighting, I’d instantly believe it. Sure, the RT looks like it is the higher quality one, but it doesn’t feel like a cyberpunk game with raytracing should “pop”. Good scenes are for it when driving around at night with wet streets. That gives the proper cyberpunk feel. But that’s about the only scenario where I’ve seen it truly work magic.
Sounds like you’re more disappointed with CP77s lighting theme than RT, you could literally change the LUT or use ReShade in a matter of seconds and get what you’re asking for. CP77 has a permanent green filter that many (very much myself included) despise. Fortunately, this is extremely easy to change, and I definitely recommend it.
Although I will say that by now the goalpost has long moved from 60 FPS and you really want to be aiming at 144 or more.
This is more or less subjective, or an ideal. Most people agree that 60FPS is completely fine (or pretty good) for single player experiences, as long as it is a smooth and stable 60 and doesn’t have bad stuttering or the like. Naturally, almost everyone would say they would still be happy with more, but they’re by no means miffed. Multiplayer experiences on the other hand, you’d have a point.
That being said, without raytracing on - which is mostly disappointing anyways -
LMAO sure whatever you say. You can be disappointed in the performance cost, but CP77’s raytracing is undeniably some of the best around. The performance hit is definitely worth being bothered by, but real time ray tracing is a very new thing that is still being fleshed out, and we’re 3 (or 2(?) for AMD generations of it, or 0 for Intel) deep. Both the software and hardware are actively being optimised for better performance and features, and we won’t see the full fruits of the current cost for another few years yet.
I started a new playthrough when phantom liberty released and I feel like I’ve had more game-breaking bugs than I did at launch. The ones I had at launch were mostly cosmetic, animation bugs, t-posing, Jackie eating his noodles with chopsticks that left a clone of themselves in the box, etc. This time I had to reload saves because, for example, Jackie just didn’t get in my car at the start and so it never unlocked the controls so I was just stuck in a car forever.
That being said, the gameplay systems are massively improved, even if it still can be a bit buggy, and it’s well worth a play. I just need to wait for mods to update for 2.1.
Looking at all those fixes makes me glad I haven’t tried the new 2.x update yet. The question now though is, should I wait for a few more months to see if they fix more bugs? 🤔
I didn’t really encounter any game breaking bugs, but I’m glad they’re readjusting the timers for the car retrieval missions from El Capitan. The time allocated was sometime ridiculous, for example having 1m30s to drive 3km from downtown in dense traffic…
I played the game as soon as 2.0 came out. I noticed some bugs, but nothing game breaking. I’d say give it a go. They may be bug fixing this game for years, and it may never be “perfect”.
They did completely rework a bunch of gameplay systems, so bugs were to be expected. I tried a 2.0 playthrough, and while bug-wise it felt like the 1.2 days ( the death-on-boarding-delamain bug being particularly infuriating ) the gameplay changes are certainly interesting. I’m still holding off on getting PL just yet, maybe wait for a discount.
The patch notes are just super-detailed, no need to worry about game-breaking bugs IMO. Finished once on 1.63, then added PL and 2.1 and finished all at 100%. No infuriating bugs, 4-5 clean crashes to desktop. (PC, AMD Ryzen 2600, Radeon 6600 XT, 2K QHD res, high settings, RT off.)
It’s probably the best game I’ve ever played, honestly. Incredible work that is now well-polished, even 2.0. First 20-40 hours felt a bit underwhelming, but by the end I was blown away. And 2.0 adds a lot of fun. At 250+ hours now, new game and choices, still wanting to play every day.
I did on my first playthrough as well, just not this one. May have something to do with me completing all of the side missions I can before advancing the storyline this time around.
