  1. Actually that isn't a bad game from w hat I can see of it. (took some time to look it up) When was that released? 2000 or something.
  2. They could scrap those features.. if they did right with the rest of the game. (and console games as well) All they needed to do was to tell the public the new reality and that they would try to rush those out as free DLCs if / when they were possible. They realized it would take a serous amount of time and after postphoning the game 3 times decided to rework it to what can be done currently. Post some evidence of similar things they did with Witcher 3 and such and people would have still eat it up. Hell. if they just released a functional game as it is currently they would have eaten it up. This serious lying from a beloved game publisher hurt way more than any lies given by Bethesda as we already know their story. If Bethesda was the publisher of th is game.. doubt many would have even batted an eye much less had a s much outrage as they had for CD Project Red due to their stellar rep.. The same rep that allowed them to so easily lie for if other companies tried that shit.. they would have been called out .. seriously for their statements before any release even happened. I mean.. if you were a reviewer and was told you can't have the console version but it runs "surprisingly well" .. would you believe it coming from Bethesda? EA? etc. I doubt it. CD Project Red shat their entire rep on this release. I hope it was worth it for them in the long run going forward...
  3. I recently had a large truck stuck half way in my car.. also the missing weapons.. for some reason... It was an easy fix for the weapon. .just change them and then it came back. The Truck however, you have to save before you try to enter or you can die.. I am told sometimes the car / truck will explode if you enter it in that state.. Same for if it is stuck partially in the ground. Didn't have an explosion but did get stuck and couldn't do anything and had to reload. One thing they did seem to do well. lol.. .is the auto saves.. There are tons of them. A god send with the bugs you can encounter in this game. So far .. cross fingers.. I haven't been too far from a previous auto save where I had to do a substantial portion of the episode again. however, the bitch of it is.. they auto save in times where you can't save.. WHY? Why can't you save if you are autosaving? I want to get right up to a point and select my save.. not go the 3~5 minutes before at some point to restart.. I'd like to make one more comment not about the above. I mentioned I know several people in Discord and in RL that have this game. One of the main points of a game like this is the re-playabliity.. something that the company touted... Well RL reactions and play is the important metric. These are people that put in more than 50 hours.. some as much as 100 or so hours. Played it at least once through.. 2 of them have uninstalled the game. I an 2 others haven't really played it for the past few days. It seems to not be the game that hooks players like the company tried to claim. I will likely play it a bit later but not as much as I have the first week it was out.
  4. I liked the Time and Scope section. Personally I believe they did to some changes to the scope.. Not in the way he described it but by removing many of the features that have been advertised early on. Features that would have really hung up the release if not done, and cause even more bugs and problems. It seems as if the game was gutted of most of all the features advertised. There are tons of side missions which makes me think that the game was much more than the one we gotten besides those known missing features. Eventually the "Time" came up and they just released. The lack of GTA type actions or even interactions with random NPCs which isn't even to a level of a 10 year old game (as pointed out several times by several reviewers and posters on this thread) That feature would have made the game much better and sorely missing from the game as you play it. Simple navigation issues (which I don't believe was talked about much) where you had to exit the panel and re-enter when you scrapped some consumables. Early on I was able to stop battles and craft ammo and whatever I wanted... which now doesn't happen. Many things show an Beta level game if that. Like he stated they likely ported over the game to the consoles expecting them to work as good as the PC. Without doing work releasing the game in an Alpha level.
  5. It may take years to get to a point where it is actually worth buying/playing. lol You'd be ready just in time!
  6. The customization of cars video... there is a section in the game where that place is at. As a Street kid you go there for your prologe. Such a shame that customization of the cars are gone. Also stupid that you can't even change makeup much less hair styles.
  7. I don't have to watch the video to know that they removed a metric shit ton of features that they were going on and on about. By now... questions of if they lied shouldn't even need to be asked. I still haven't found that jacket....

    Bandit Captive

    Nice.. well not for her... But for me! lol
  9. Those that worked on the game had issues and arguments with those in charge. The core people wanting to create a game was overridden by those in charge. Those same people (responsible for publishing the game.. giving the go ahead) are the ones that were the responsible party. I am happy that the company will be sued by the investors. They lied. That comment was to clarify for those piling on the hate fest that those working there are just as much a victim as those that invested in the company as well as those that purchased the games. Based on your comment I will assume that we can both agree on that fact. As for your second part... Lets be clear. read my previous post.. I stated don't by the game, it isn't sell-able. I don't experience as many bugs as others true but that is a far cry from being a protector of CD Project red. Get your facts straight. I haven't defended the game. The very dam fact I am telling people not to buy the game... should be a strong indicator of my thoughts about the game. I played it. I know the bugs I know the issues. I therefore know it isn't a finished game by a long shot. I am dismissing the frequency that most haters of the game are trying to claim is happening. It just isn't fact. I am clarifying the falsehood being tossed around. You can just fire up any one of the many Twitch streams and watch for a couple of hours and will see .. yes, buggy, true.. but not as frequent as what is being alleged by many of the videos being posted. At least not for the PC version. Clarifying a fact isn't apologizing. It is giving factual info on the matter. I have given references and possible sources for others that read this to check out themselves. It isn't an end to end constant bug fest. You are tying to put words and start arguments that I haven't stated. .. Referring to the technology not being able to compete with 10~15 year old games. I never said it could.. again trying to muddy the waters with your random bullshit statements. Trying to attack someone and in order to do so.. you have to make shit up and try to infer that I am stating otherwise. For the record it is can't even compete with some of the very early GTA games where the car and NPCs on the street are concerned. Based on your statements. I will assume that we can agree on this point.
  10. Like the truck video... Those police officers were very understanding.
  11. Yes... they were just as much duped as those that bought the game. I am sure they lost a great deal of short term profits from that. Not to mention the cost in man power just to fix all those bugs will greatly cut into the profits going forward. On that note.. the more I see them do in patches. How much they are fixing each time a patch is released... (large ones at that always bigger than a gig if I am not mistaken.. the game is ~60 gigs) There are loads of more patches needed to just fix those issues in play ability not to mention performance. I don't have the new cards but from what I have heard from Discord users that do.. the card is running like shit with the game. They have to turn off those features just to get decent / reasonable frame rates that they'd get from other similar games. Which makes the game look really bad compared to what it should look like. The video with that strange guy singing about Cyberpunk is pretty accurate. In one week they managed to create as much negative news as Bethesda did in a year. Talk about a golden child falling from grace.. They fell from the heavens, hit the ground and just keep on digging... Those that I know are playing the game are enjoying the game so much even with all the glitches and problems. ... Imagine how well they'd be doing (CD Project Red) if they just released a stable reasonably bug free game? Even though I am enjoying the game... I will just have to request that I get gift cards for future purchases (from games and anything else ) I could just as easily had a horrible experience. (if it was on the console instead of PC version) and to be honest.. I can still have a horrible time.. who knows how much they will do to fix bugs, what level of DLCs they will create and if or if not they will follow through with their Expansions. Might just end up with the equivalent of horse armor and not much else. Could end up with them just stopping work like what happened to Mass Effect Andromeda. Or.. even future patches be shit to the point that I can't have a playable game. They lied about the consoles and many other things, they can be lying about what they plan on doing or how much they will do. Eventually, if this becomes a money sink they will stop. If anything this is all the proof that one needs to never pre-purchase any game or product. If the golden child CD Project Red .. can drop this fast and this badly... any company can do the same.
  12. Then you didn't read the news that the devs the ones that were working on this game was bitching at the publisher that released the game. Who is the clueless one... Go on your aimless, unfounded and baseless rants to someone else. Apologist...? Seriously, have you read my post.. I HAVE THE GAME... You don't. I know what is going on... you don't other than some bullshit artist that plays hours and hours of game play to gather up the glitches to make a montage. By the way.. several of those clips you see on all these videos .. are repeating badly.. from the same video clip.. just reworked again and again. Same angle and the like. Also... you didn't read my post stating that this game isn't sell-able. That I'd not advise anyone to buy it. It isn't worth the money. Apologist? YEA RIGHT, MY ASS. Finally I never stated that they shouldn't be sued. They deserve to be sued. The customers deserve a refund for the game regardless of platform due to the serious defects that have been shown to be present in the game. The investors need to sue the publisher as well as remove all those involved in the blanket lies that they obviously committed (primarily not allowing the console games to be reviewed by reviewers and refusing to allow actual game footage to be released by those that had the PC version.. but not only the above.) Apologists.. yea.. go pull your head out of your ass so that you can see the text ... repeatedly stating this game isn't one that I would advise anyone to buy. I am not jumping on the hate wagon. I am keeping a clear head and have the game to actually reference and know more of what the fuck is going on that you do. I can enjoy the game and play it as much as I dam well want to ... in no way makes it a sell-able game.. Doesn't make what they did right.
  13. As far as I know these are from pre-release or very early day one release videos. They are short and very brief. I won't lie.. I have had some of the various glitches. I seen palm trees do their weird lay down. I had arms stretch out in strange Bethesda manners and some characters drop below the ground partially. In the PC (forgot, some of these might be xbox or playstation which is known to be totally or near totally unplayable.) it is playable. There are glitches but they seem to be corrected and getting better. However, to be honest... the last time I played I had many of the car issues (minus the explosions) the problems with cars / trucks merging with each other and causing all sorts of havoc. It is a long way from being even complete release ready where I can be confident to advise anyone to buy the game. Not at the 60 dollar or more cost. That being said.. the game is fucking huge. The side missions are many, perhaps more than any game I am aware of in recent days. Different types from rescue to execution ones. There are funny ones as well. One where you rescue a man that is having penis implant issues... lol. Have to drive him to the ripper doc (a doctor that deals in cyber implants) I have seen some easter eggs referencing Terminator (where the truck drives off the road into the man made canal (not sure what is is called) and others that I can't remember off the top of my head now. I have played 82.5 hours.. this is the most I have planed on my 100+ games other than Bethesda games. I am on only my second serious play through now. Haven't even gone through the aCT 1 yet. (the mission most see on videos by CD Project Red. ) Where you get Johnny Silver Hand. It is a compelling game otherwise I woudn't have put that much time into it. It sucks that it isn't the game they advertised.. secondly and slightly lesser, that it is a buggy game. Even now. If you watch Twitch feeds it is playable and works well most of the time but there are many bugs that they run through. They, mostly having rigs much better than even mine. So it can't be due to low specs. I don't blame the devs.. according to news reports they seem to be as angry with the push of release as us consumers if not more so. It is the publishers. they were the ones that wanted a nice cash infusion into the company and didn't give a flying fuck about the game or rep. Hopeing all the positive rep they had could absorb the poor game. That is what I believe IMO. that makes what was done even more sinister than Bugthesda releases.
  14. I've been shortchanged... I can't do that in my game! Dam... lol
  15. One problem with that judgement... This game is the first Turd that the company made... Bethesda like CD Project Red was a golden child in the past. However, unlike CD Project Red.. Bethesda has created turd after turd and has done so many bad things. If someone is shitting on Bethesda.. it is important to understand why.... if it is only Fallout 76 as a game.. then yes. I agree with you. If it is the ongoing trend that they have been following for the past 6~10 years (or more) then I would disagree. The same goes for someone that wants to shit on CD Project Red for their practices related to Cyberpunk. Their releases of the console games in such a horrible state as that Sony would D-list the game. That it was totally unplayable. Even though the PC version is, even for those people pilling on the shit on the game, state is playable buggy but playable and people are enjoying the game.. In CD Project's case.. like the video prior stated.. was such a shit show that in one week was enough material to use that took Bethesda over a year to make. It is the context of their "shitting" that is important to me. If it is well thought out and based on facts and information.. then their shiting is valid and shows someone with a decent IQ.. if it is just shitting like some playing the game are doing now.. then yes, I agree with you @bjornk they have an extremely low IQ. Th type of IQ that means they can't walk and chew gum at the same time. The type that is dangerous as that type of IQ imo has a tendency to infect others.
  16. The character development is limited. It would be great if there were sliders for many of the items listed. To get the color or other options you wanted. (like gender choices) That being said.. the game has a decent development section where you can get decent characters. Keep in mind other than a few cut scenes, inventory management and mirrors you don't see your character in game. My last character I played, I'd forgotten how he looked for one of the final scenes. (no spoliiers) The bugs aren't really all that bad for the PC gamer experience. The majority of what is being shown and bitched about is from the console games which they themselves admitted wasn't done. Really bad for the Sony experience. The devs were pushed and told to do way more than they could do in the t ime given. This world is MASSIVE. It is alive... and a metric SHIT TON of side missions and other things you can do unlike another RPG creator Don't believe me.. just watch Twitch gamers that are playing this game on a Decent computer. You will see the game isn't as bad as those videos. Bad at points yes. but the past two patches has fixed many of my complaints . The character background details are missing and seriously missing in game play. It is details that would be great for your head cannon and if they followed through and added it to the interactions like they (lightly ) covered with the other life path choices.. the interactions would be much more dynamic. Now they are just choices (which by the way mean nothing in the end. Nothing has changed when ignored ) The Tatoos.. suck. There are only a few choices and I can't find any that really fit. They are TOTAL BODY tatoos. Not locations .. that is a feature that would really make the character creation really work Another thing that has been changed is the phone calls. Not mentioned so far in the video that I can see. There is actually a video playing for the character calling.. (top left) now it is just plain boring. There was a big deal about Joytoys (prostitutes) and as far as I can find there is only one male and one female in the ENTIRE GAME. Many hints and other things that might be .. but just isn't. Houses.. that would be nice but.. from some videos I have seen and from V's window I can see the house. . a massive upgrade if you are on the right path and choosing the right ending. But so far only one house. That is at the end or very near end. Yea.. no matter what choices you have for that miltek chick mission jackie just goes to the same location and waits. NO assist. I do miss that a lot. Having the flathead would be AWESOME. those that don't play the game.. this bot would make a big BIG difference in the Net Runner build.. I can't state how much this bot would help. The city is massive. There are lots and lots of places to explore. I can't think of another game with as much to explore and do. So many side quest that even in the prologue you can build your character and get the highest Street Cred and fully buff out your character before you even decide to go back to the main quest line (finish the progloge or ACT 1) They had to spend so much time and effort on this. Likely that was being built the entire time the game was being developed ... even when they revamped the main story and removed all the above mentioned items. I personally think they should have focused on the main story, the features that they stated and advertised to be given and left some of the fleshing out quest and city options out.. to be developed after release and bugs were fixed. The main story would still be over 20 hours of play min but it would be great! then flesh out many many parts of the city and quest as they develop the game further.
  17. There are alot of things that might look like design flaws but I think the developer wasn't ready to release... and these are just starting points for further development. Not all of them bout some of them Not sure about his m ind.. but I am sure a lot of money is running through his wallet... way more than he'd get normally for the pen and paper game. Also, the interest int he game even with the bugs. There are honestly lots of people playing it and enjoying themselves. and.. yes, even laughing at many of the bugs along with that. These people are also gamers (as in roll playing) and are interested in his game (pen and paper) which will give him more $$$ I know of some D&D players in RL that are thinking of a change to play Cyberpunk 20 .. whatever.. I am not a player or familar with Mike's world but I believe from what I do know.. that was well executed.
  18. Yea... I never had that problem My saves were quite small compared to others. I played the game, got stuff and scrapped it or sold it quickly so that I could get or craft/upgrade the stuff I had .. normal RPG stuff. .. Holding 1housands of things is just plain crazy.
  19. Another update. Not sure what it was for. Also, I found an section where I believe they censored the woman's tits. It is one of the sexual encounters. She has pasties on her nipples. There is also another nVidia update as well. They are seemingly corresponding with Cyberpunk patches. Possibly working with them? Jackie isn't walking through doors or doors aren't closing behind him and locking my toon in or out of where he/she has to go. had a major problem on one of the missions when finished.. Once I couldn't get out. Also, lost "Dum Dum" yep an NPC is called that. lol. I believe the latest patch will help prevent that.
  20. Judy looks pretty good on my machine. Not as good as some of the videos but pretty good compared to my other games. Her voice acting is really good. There is another girl you can romance if you are a male (Judy is for females romance) that they did some serious work on her walk... very jarring compared to the other characters walks... lol There is a point where you have to follow her for some time in the game walking... Early on, I was doing good. Didn't really encounter the police at any point. Didn't have a problem with them. However, recently they spawned because I was talking shit to some gang member and proactively shot him. Well.. The comment about the police spawning around you.. is 100% true. It isn't a glitch, it isn't something going wrong. It is repeatable time and time again. they try to kill you . As far as I know there is no option to get out of it unless you can outrun the area before they do. This is one of the most stupid implementations of the police that I have ever seen. A noob mod author on a Bethesda game can do better. I am hopefull that since this game was released at least a year before it was ready, that that is just something they were working on and haven't finished. Side note.. 3 other people in RL that I know have the game and are racking up dozens if not 10's of dozens of hours on the game and really enjoying the game. Maybe this is a result of having such a shitty selection of games, that when one comes out with potential 1000's of missions and side quest and such to play.. that runs.. they enjoy it. Standards have dropped so low.
  21. His video is one of the best reviews and coverage of the game. I appreciate his detail on the issues between the consoles and PCs. even stating the PC was the "good version". There is a big difference between the various game options. PC is much better but no where near a AAA game company release.
