Yeah fuck this. I was complaining about this yesterday too, how the patch is somehow 20 GB despite having fucking nothing in it, and as if that isn't bad enough, I try to install it and it tells me "You must have 269105 MB free to install this game", literally three times the size of the entire game just to apply the patch.This is the exact same fucking problem I had trying to play this game back in 2020, every tiny little update forces you to download the whole 150 GB game again because apparently after 6 years they still don't understand how to make a patch that isn't fucking stupid. And good thing I didn't start downloading it yet because after a single day guess what, they've already got "patch 2.5_redmodfix" cause they fucked something up so bad it needed an immediate patch, so even if I'd started downloading I'd have had to redownload anyway.I'm sticking with patch 2.31a. I looked at last year's patches and it looks like 2.3, 2.31, and 2.31a each had about a month between them so I just know if I waste my time and data downloading 2.5 there's going to be a 2.51 in a month. And if I'm lucky it doesn't ask for an insane amount of space to patch the game but even then I'd still have to redownload the 30 GB Phantom Liberty each time, which isn't that much compared to the whole game but it's still obnoxious. Realistically speaking the game is already as "finished" as it's going to get and nothing they added is going to meaningfully affect my experience anyway.
they added dual pistols in bruh
CD Project... incompetent? Huh?? Woooow
The gane is literally fallout 4 tier. Don't get the praise
>>750256661Oh and you know what else is funny, even if I did get the patch I'd have to constantly dodge around the station with Edgerunners music because I haven't watched that yet and I'd kinda rather hear the music in the anime before I hear it in the game. So maybe it's better this way.
just play it on switch 2
>>750256789No, let's not say things we can't take back. It's nowhere near as bad as Fallout 4, but it tries.
>>750256881Or just set the settings to poverty tier and get a better experience.
>>750256789HATE CYBERPUNK
>>750256661They need all that spaghetti code to destroy your modlist

>>750256661Imagine playing this dogshit
>>750257271dogtown*
>>750256789The gameplay is better in Cyberpunk, which is really the highlight of the game imo. Almost everything else is mediocre at best.
>>750256661Must be annoying as fuck to be a modder and they keep patching the game with fucking nothing and breaking the mods, used to be games would actually finish updating after a few years so you didn't have to worry about mods getting broken, now 6 years later they keep making little updates for no apparent reason.
>>750256661it also runs like complete shit, i have 40 fps less playing 2.5 than i do in 2.3 on the same settings
I'm currently on my first playthrough and even then I still value the mods I have more than what they added in the update, so I'm sticking with the previous patch too. Cyberware cosmetic customization is the most tempting one but I'll live.>>750260497If you're on Nvidia and you don't have RTX 5000 then I'd bet they added DLSS 4.5. force Preset K back through Nvidia App.
>>750260629What mods do you have? I wanna see if there's anything I should look into.
>>750256661If you weren't retarded you would understand why this is done this way.It's simply the most reliable and quickest way to apply patches. Forced software updates are the real problem but faggots don't care.
it's not worth it anon, the game sucks
>>750256791d dies
>>750256661don't care didn't readget flatlined gonk
>>750256661I downloaded it around launch and deleted it shortly after the tutorial endedI can't fathom how anyone could praise this awful shit and no I don't care about later patches "fixing" shit when the base package won't be fun no matter how well it works.The shooting sucks, the driving sucks, exploration sucks, the writing sucks, no amount of patches will change that.
>>750262746>no amount of patches will change the things that they literally changed in patchesWhat a stupid fucking post. 2.0 reworked the entire combat system three years ago to cater to complaints like yours but you've already decided that a patch can't possibly change the game. Even though that's literally what patches do.

>>750263150>T- they reworked the combat (trees)!>That fixes all your complaints!It fixes none of them.And while I'm at it Edgerunners was an ugly piece of shit too
>>750260329It's because zoomers genuinely check when a game was last updated before they play it, and if it hasn't received a recent update, they consider it dead and won't play it.
>Pajeets are still hating on Cyberpunk 2077 to get (yous) from threadsSad state of affairs
I don't know what can realistically be done about deranged schizophrenics who are so mindbroken by a game they barely played in 2020, that they are still entering threads six years later to continue spreading lies about it. That is an insane amount of time to still care about doing such a thing.Thankfully it doesn't really affect this particular game since it sold well and they're already working on a sequel, but I have seen this behavior bring down perfectly good games before. Hell I just recently saw Kojima complain about the same thing happening to his games. It's like a vengeful revenant, completely unmotivated by human logic, only set on doing as much damage as possible. Nothing you say or do will get rid of it, you can only carefully operate around its existence and hope that's enough.
>>750262746Same experience around launch but installed it again on 2.31 and HAD A BLAST. They actually did massively overhaul combat, though how much it changed may not be incredibly obvious to you since you dropped it before combat opened up to begin with, and the changes are so fundamental that a lot of it will feel like things that couldn't possibly not be there at launch. Like it's hard to imagine that you couldn't dash and air dash around during launch when you spend SO much time doing it to move around if you're playing Reflex.The driving I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I was prepared to play it with a controller on my lap to pick up every time I entered a car but I actually really like driving on keyboard. Except for first person, the inside of the cars look amazing, but it's really hard to see and drive in it. It ironically feels less immersive because you can't really take in your surroundings much, Night City kind of disappears and it becomes just car simulator. Third person ends up being more immersive to drive around. Except for bikes and one or two exceptions for the car. Exploration there isn't much, that is true, don't really think it's the kind of game for that, but you are right. Writing is surprisingly weak for the main quest, but I like the side stuff and world building stuff. Johnny interactions are always good too.
>>750256661they try to hard to make female v the main character lmao
>>750256789its a cyberpunk themed shooter with some dialogue sprinkled in itit is a very fun straight up shooter
>>750256881Why bother with nintendotrash when there's better hardware available? Imagine playing the game at 22 frames on average.

>>750263904Thanks, lots of good QOL fixes in there. I can see why you wouldn't want to lose them until they're updated for 2.5

CDPR is an awful studioThe last ok game they made was Witcher 23 sucked assCyberpunk not only sucked ass it was nothing but terrible ideas from the start, it never even stood a chance at being good.
>>750264650Motherfucker I'm still mad about Dragon Age 2I'm tired of every RPG studio not named Larian constantly trying and failing to shove crpg worlds and writing into awful shooters and action titles.
>>750264493The only one mad here is you, Anon.
>>750263954The sad thing is I've seen this exact phenomenon so I know you're not bullshitting, even if it's a single player offline game with a complete story and no bugs that need fixing, they call it "abandoned." No wonder live service is so common these days.

>>750256661>how the patch is somehow 20 GB despite having fucking nothing in itOne of the lead game designers was commenting yesterday about the patch size. Apparently the bulk of the patch is just a straight up large scale optimization of the game.Far more NPCs and vehicles can now freely exist within the city environments than before including increased particle effects, sharper textures and improved lighting. (Apparently they also put in dozens of new dialogue for characters too, including hundreds of new V dialogue that wasn't in the Phantom Liberty update seeing as they got both Leigh and Drea back to record new audio recently)
>>750264128two*
>>750264738good for you
>>750263954Why do you think we have people tracking player count on single player games too, despite the game already having sold millions of copies? Yes, zoomers are retarded, and they are all over /v/ too.
>>750265094>There will be more cars and NPCs that do nothing Great priorities!
>everyone agrees game sucks>Shitty anime releases>Do-nothing rework releases>Suddenly trend chasers and fallout stooges love itBrainless behavior.
>>750265094>>750260497 ??
>>750263904>>750264594I find this mod essential. it gets rid of all the porn billboards all over the place and replaces them with lore-appropriate normal billboards.https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/6272
Massive patches are so normalized it didn't even phase me when the patch was 20 gigs. Unreal Engine games make you download 60 gigs to apply a minor patch because Tim's dumbass engine doesn't believe in letting devs do surgical patches.
>>75026538490% of players didn't watch the tranime, me includedyou really need to stop melting down and crying Ranjeet
YOU MY PON PONWAO I NEED PON PONGIVING ME PON PON GIVING ME PON PON
>>750265536You're trolling
>>750265426>we made the game WAY more optimized>and then cranked up the amount of random shit everywhere to get rid of all those gainslol CDPR
>>750260497probably because the definition of the settings changed. They should've just added a new setting if they were going to increase the number of npcs they could render per cycle or whatever.
This game mindbroke shazam troons.... HOW

I have "retarded devs going back and adding stupid pointless gay shit and breaking all the mods because they're creatively bankrupt faggots and must coast on prior successes rather than have faith that their newest game will be successful" fatigue
>dual pistolsStarted a new playthrough, so far I'm only able to dual wield non-iconic pistols. Will this change?
>>750272656then just dont update or revert to earlier version? why are you niggers like this?
>the update was 20gbis this supposed to be insane? the game still installs at the same size, they replaced a ton of files, did it take forever to update or something? get better internet
>>750265384>>Do-nothing rework releasesthats just straight up false. they completely reworked how skills, stats, and items worked in the game. they added a ton of extra content and they included a 15 hour expansion with a great story that lengths a previously anemic main quest line.
>>750272656>adding stupid pointless gay shit and breaking all the mods because they're creatively bankrupt faggots and must coast on prior successes rather than have faith that their newest gamethis is their newest game. this is another free update. their next game will be a smash hit. what exactly are you crying about? your gooner mods not working for 1 - 2 days? you have to put in 4 minutes of effort to get your mods working again?
