FSR 2.1 has also been added to the console version and it looks like a nice boost to image quality.
Cyberpunk 2077 - New RPG by CD PROJEKT RED
- Thread starter ArGarBarGar
- Start date
should be clarified that it's updated for 9th gen consoles since I don't think 8th gen has FSR capability. I believe the 8th gen consoles have basically been abandoned by CDPR at this point as there isn't much more they can do to optimize it.
I plan to finally play this game soon but on PC. I'm pretty amazed at how terribly optimized it is though. I gave it a 30 minute test run last week, and at native 1440p with no DLSS and Ultra RT it somehow only runs between 25 and 40 FPS with a 3080ti, 13600k, and DDR5 5600mhz ram. Realistically, I'll probably run it at 1440p with RT Ulta with performance DLSS which will push it up to 80 to 110 FPS. Amazed they thought they could somehow get this to ruin on base X-Box One and PS4. Like, I'm running it on tech basically released 1 to 2 years after the game and it still has performance issues without DLSS at 1440p.

As if it wasn't obvious before, the previous gen versions should've been abandoned and the current gen versions released early this year when the next gen patch came out. CD teaching a masterclass on damaging their brand

Yes, CDPR had previously announced there will be no further updates to the last gen version (which probably shouldn't have existed).
I don't think the game is particularly unoptimized, these high end RT games are just very demanding. I just booted up Lego Builder's Journey on my PC (5900x, 3080) at native 1440p max settings and I am getting 30-40 FPS.
As someone who never got caught up in the initial marketing campaign around the game I thought it was decent. I get being upset with broken promises but if you didn't view the game through that lense it was enjoyable.

Do you have any idea of a specific class you're aiming to play as, or just trying to explore the game and level up in a more organic fashion? Seems like, based on where you've put your points, you're interested in gun skills as well as crafting.

I had a "should I focus on guns or programs?" moment and chose the latter, it's not hard to get alot of RAM and fry a room. Looking back, I did the same thing in the KotOR games and lightning, so maybe that's just me.

If I compare my playing style in the Fallout series, I'm leaning on gun fights, a little sneak, no melee. I lockpick more than I hack, but I do both. I'm not really into crafting but I do it for bullets and repair armor/guns.

You definitely have your points allocated correctly if you want to have improved pistols, sub machineguns and rifles. Though you'll want to take a look at the Antihalation Tree (under Body) if you want to improve shotguns and heavy machine guns specifically.
If you want to sneak, you'll definitely want to invest into the Cool Tree. You don't need to invest tons of perk/attribute points in that tree to have a decent base stealth ability if that's all you're looking for.
I'd also recommend searching some videos or guides on character creation and customization. There's a lot of opportunity in this game for some very cool builds and some guides do a good job of explaining perks in more detail and how they work with one another.

Spreading it over hacking and body, gives you a chance to put down multiple enemies before you sneak in with a sword while invisible and take down the rest. I also recommend watching Youtube for Legendary Gear locations and Legendary weapons. If you use weapons, go for Smart weapons and just go for weapons where you can shoot bullets that automatically go for the head.
I mean there's no excusing the sorry state the game released in but I agree it was nothing crazy game breaking. I picked up a ps4 copy at Walmart for under half odf around release as a resold return copy. Got all the way to the end but wanted to clear all side content before the endgame and just burned out. The game was playable, there were just times I had to restart it when the bugs were piling up and it did crash a few times.
Gonna do a full playthrough on PC eventually.
I think the biggest thing that ruined it for a lot of peopole is the horrendous LOD pop-in for NPCs and Cars. I suspect this was caused by the slow hard-drive because i played most of the game on one and had these a lot. Then switched to SSD and its drastically reduced.
Yeah pop in never got better. At least not on PS4. I picked the game up on EGS for like 20 bucks with a coupon so I still haven't paid full price for the game. It's definitely a lot better on PC. But the game was still playable enough for me to get to the endgame.
If it was something like say, Call of Duty and there was constant input delay across the board for everyone, that to me would be something you could call an unplayable state.

Driving seems very wonky in this game

I watched the first episode of the anime and loved it. Might give me the itch to play it again.

Yes it is. The bugs are fine now. Story is good. Gameplay is fun. If you are someone like me who likes to try and 100% completion you get your moneys worth. I’ve put so much time into this game.

Yes.
You will not be alright after finishing it. And you'll want to get the main character's jacket and one character's shotgun in the game afterwards.
Compared to GTA, it is.

It’s not just the physics giving me trouble, it’s the camera angles. I blow by turns and locations all the timeYes.

The default driving controls are very sensitive. Try adjusting it but it stays a bit wonky. Not my favorite part of the game.

I never thought an update to a 3 year old game would make me consider a new GPU purchase but here we are. This looks incredible
It looks really good, but still not quite "I'm now convinced to spend $1600 on a video card" good.
Also, it's amusing how they're showing off sub-30 framerates being boosted to 130 via frame generation when most PC gamers would consider the still sub-30fps input lag to be completely unacceptable.
