Kinda deserved. 2.0 really fixed a lot of issues and promises.
It’s almost the game they promised
I just started the game after 2.0 and it was an absolute blast. Loved all of it. No bugs.
me to but the auto raising stats checks sorta bummed me.
Can mod it back if you’re on PC.
yeah I have been thinking of it. im on steamdeck which means I have to go into desktop mode but it annoys me to have to mod it over like setting a difficulty otpion or something.
Meanwhile, I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3 now, and it is absolutely the buggiest game I’ve ever played. It is unreal how many big and small bugs I’ve had at nearly every turn. If I were CDPR, honestly I’d be pissed.
Took them how many years and updates?
I’m waiting for the expansion to be at 10 to 15 €, and play CP through again.
Edit for a serious question: Who’s downvoting this? Pre-launch buyers?
Yes, CP is a good game now but remember the state it was in when CDPR asked full price for it at launch. You can’t even call it launch when it didn’t even take off on the PS4.
Just take a minute and read all the patch notes tagged with something like [added]. You’d be surprised how barebones the OG Cyberpunk was.
Probably a bad idea to complain about devs actually fixing a game
Someone who thinks games should be fully fleshed out when released is getting downvoted? The game shouldn’t of required fixing in the first place. Why the fuck are people these days so willing to accept unfinished products? They promised the moon before release and people rightfully lost their shit when it didn’t meet expectations. Why should we praise them for fixing their fuck-up?
I’ve completed the game twice and it was fantastic. I just hate how the bare minimum is what’s expected now.
We praise them for fixing their fuck-up because most don’t. And when we want to see this behaviour changed we gotta promote the better way. Same with No Man Sky.
Sure. But if either CDPR or Hello Games come out with anything new I’m going to wait until after release before buying it. I will definitely never pre-order from either of those companies again.
Pre-ordering should be avoided regardless of developer. Nothing is a guarantee and the incentives they use for encouraging pre-orders are sleazy.
Developers fixing a game is not a problem, it’s desirable, even expected.
Making the game playable (like it was advertised) is not called fixing. That’s developing the game.
CP wasn’t an Early Access title, they wanted full price for three quarters of a game.
they wanted full price for three quarters of a game.
And what they delivered crashed a lot, had game breaking bugs, and brain dead AI despite the fact it could teleport, still wasn’t really effective.
Even in a beta state you still expect the law’s physics to apply, and not prevent accessing the rest of the content.

I played through it. It was a stunning game, no bugs. Glad I picked it up.
How???
By being a spectacular game lol
Are you from a different univers where CDPR actually made the game from their marketing materials or something?
Your information is dated, friend. It was a mess on launch. It’s widely considered to be pretty damn good these days
Has it been majorly updated in the last 4/5 months? because I tried playing it again around Christmas and it still wasnt the game they adviertised to us.
I don’t understand what kind of a “spectacular” improvement they made with 2.0. Played it with day 1 patch, played it with 2.0 release. Watched a few videos, too, and saw nothing but small tweaks on a lot of things.
Water splashing when shot? How much of the meaningful parts of the game go around any bodies of water? Yes there are rivers separating the districts and it is a coastal city, but how much do you interact with it? Being a floating head on a ladder or having a hand climbing it in this game being “putting labor in the game”?s,
A few skill mechanics have changed, but do they impact the game any much? You can simply go and shoot everyone with a revolver, sniper rifle or a good assault rifle as usual. That is, if you wanna have the game feel less bullet spongy. Yeah yeah I know, everyone has plate armor under their skin, but they wear outer armor, too, anyway.
Quickhacks and ram stuff looked a little bit changed with somewhat meaningful combos, but I’m not sure if they were there at the start.
Unconnected, totally “run to this place, shoot up or get this item, listen to a 10 second congratulations comm, get your rewards” grindy side missions and all the other whatever they are called stuff are no better than going for an action figure collection run on GTA Online. Nothing have addressed this. We got some totally unused vehicular combat platform update, tho.
The main story with character animations and voices were on point, but that was already in the game at the start. Couldn’t slog through again half the base game again to start the Phantom Liberty DLC story, tho, so it may be good as well. But I seriously doubt anything in the 2.0 is this much news worthy as we have seen in Lemmy over the last few months. I guess having a $40M marketing budget out of $120M total budget iirc just for this update and DLC pays off.
Lol same universe as you. Did you assume the devs abandoned the game on launch?
And yet its still not they game they told us they were going to release.
The modding community is great
It’s better than what they told us. Have you actually played it?
People with impulse control thanks full price paying beta testers for dealing with cp2077 for that long before the game turned good.
maybe try releasing a functional game next time? Wild concept, I know.
