Cyberpunk 2077

Full disclosure maybe 2 VERY frustrating hours into the game. Started over twice. Last time went into the turtorial and could not figure it out. Went online got a rough idea of how it works. Tried again. Still could not grapple the dude in the hack screen module. If it is this frustrating in the beginning what is it going to be like in-game? Very little information on how the system works. Uninstalled. I have over 600 hours in Withcerr 3 so not a complete neophyte.

I got the game when it originally came out..... was sooo hyped for it but had to wait 2 weeks for the patch for my video card to kinda work... fast forwards 4 weeks and now i can finally play it.... now i work a full time job and have 2 kids to take care of so i dont get to play games alot.... How did i end up beating the game in 16 hours..... I talked to my buddies and did alot more side quest and back tracked to max out my stuff for Johnny but still ... now 22 hours in and i beat all 3 endings.... the game was unfinished and here a year later is still is unfinished..... buy it used on a console and play it if your board.... you'll spend most your time driving around more than anything else....

I cannot really review the game cause it won't run longer then 3 minutes. I waited a full year so all the hubbub bout crashing would have been taken care off, clearly not the case. My pc runs every other game just fine, has a MSI Radeon rx590 on an MSI Mortar B360 With 32 gig of memory.. SSD's, man, the machine just takes any game thrown at it. Fresh windows 10, latest drivers. No dice, the game crashes at random intervals but 3 minutes is the longest. Changed driver settings, resolution, nothing helps. The parts of the game i've seen look great.. controls seem a bit meh. to bad.. I had high hopes when this game was announced, i waited a year after all the critique and gossip.. and lowered them back again.. Not enough it seems.. it's not workable.

Ever since game was updated to 2.0 it's been randomly crashing. Sometimes it crash at certain scene or menu, sometimes it crashes out of nowhere. I've tried completely re-installing the game, updated graphics driver, cleaned DirectX shader cache, and tweaked as many settings as I humanly could to try to get the game to run stable. It still randomly crash and sometimes it crash in a sequence of mission where I can't save, so I end up replaying the sequence multiple times hoping it doesn't crash this time so I can save the game and progress. I thought, after 3 years the game would be polished and ready to play, but no, even after 3 years, and a paid DLC, the game is still broken.

You have to suspect CDPR is in financial difficulty because even after all these agonizing delays 2077 is still an unfinished, unoptimized mess that needed at least another 6-8 months of work. The problems are legion: First of all 2077 won't even run on the PC of my spouse. No error, just instantly closes the game executable. Their PC more than meets the Minimum Requirements and is closer to Recommended but nothing I do changes this no-load behavior. It's ridiculous. I worked on it for over 3 hours, tried every single solution offered by GOG/CDPR, tried every single reasonably sane idea I found on the forums, and finally I just gave up. I never made any progress or even got any error messages. 2077 loaded on the first try on my gaming rig, which is bizarre because it is almost identical to the spouse machine that won't even start the game. I got in, set up all my options (graphics mostly defaulted to High/Ultra), and created my character. Character creation isn't a great experience because there's an annoying bug where rotating V to see different angles causes the list view of categories to reset to the very top of the list. Considering the list has like 50 entries and you then have to scroll back down and find where you were at, after this happens a few dozen times you really start to get annoyed. Eventually character creation was finally completed, the game then loaded up the Nomad intro for my character. The very first scene looking in the mirror was giving me about 4-5 fps. On a GTX 1080 SC. I started lowering settings one at a time to find out which setting(s) were the killer but eventually gave up and just reset the entire graphics to the lowest possible options. This gave me about 12 fps. I then ALT-F4'd, probably losing my character in the process but who the **** cares because I'm not going to be able to play 2077 anytime soon. Thanks for the preorder 30% coupon for CDPR gear in the store guys, I can't wait to show you how much I love 2077.
