I want this company to do well and I pray that they keep updating this game to make it a 10 out of 10 but this game is simply unpolished and unfinished.

I want this company to do well and I pray that they keep updating this game to make it a 10 out of 10 but this game is simply unpolished and unfinished. It actually frustrates me how many people only talk about the glitches in the graphics but there is so many other things that are wrong. I truly believe the team worked really hard on the story and the city itself, However the character customization in the immersion of the game is lacking big time. The fact that I can go into the city and there’s 10 pedestrians and five cars in the street is just unacceptable for the world. There’s only a handful of characters you can actually have a relationship with and none of them mean anything to you. Enemies take bullets like sponges no matter what difficulty you’re on. And the list goes on. I’m not gonna give up on this game I still want to play it a little bit every day but I really hope they acknowledge this **** up and continue to work on this game. This should be evident that crunch time does not work. This game is not polished and it should’ve been left in the oven to cook for longer. Again I’m not gonna give up on this game and I truly hope that they’re more transparent with the people that I’ve purchased this game. And please for anyone saying that Consol players shouldn’t have expected anything less you have no idea what you’re talking about. This game has been advertised on the console since it was announced, no console player expects their game to look like the pc version but the way the game looks at this point is completely unacceptable. I’m totally fine with them releasing patches constantly but they have to do it right they can’t half ass this. Not only do they have to address the buggy mess of the game is but they have to address the way cops are in the game and why you can’t look at your character while you buy/try on clothes and why we can’t customize vehicles or weapons these are things that should’ve been on the checklist and why it wasn’t is beyond me. I am optimistic of the future of this game but in the past couple days all I’ve felt is dread about how disappointing this game is. This really feels like a no man’s sky situation and I almost hope that it is so that the game can become better within time I’m fine with that. Such a beautiful game with such potential I am very hopeful of the future. Expand

    Absolutely shocking, graphics and gameplay all clunky and running on 15fps on ps4 pro. What the ****. Sort it out honestly. It's a joke. 'next gen' yeah this game looks like PS1 at times.

    To many Bugs,glitches, frame rate drops. Looks dated on ps4 Pro. Best wait for patches and don't waste £50 yet. I've played roughly 9hrs and game has crashed/blue screened 4x + all the other little glitches and bugs just makes the game atm unenjoyable. I'm still scratching my head

    Thanks for the fraud cd project red. You should be sued for what you showed and promised versus what you released. Very disappointed. Don't buy this game until gamestop is selling it for $15 in 6 months.

Underneath all of this mess is a great game just that it needs more work to get it running up to par on last gen system and even the current ones. Will definitely give this a 9 or even 10 out of 10 if CDPR can iron out all the bugs and glitches that are present in this current build. Expand

    I can only say that the game has one of the greatest immersive experiences! You can spend many hours in NC and really feel the cyberpunk vibe from it. It has good writing and a good direction of the narrative. Why not 10/10 then? Because of the bugs of course! But surely the will fix it in the near future.

Maybe they'll fix it, maybe not, but paying 70euro on release for a AAA super-hyped title and getting this crap, is unforgivable.

    Regarding the game itself, while showing promise it is also greatly disappointing. It feels like it's 2009 and Borderlands came out, while being unplayable. It's full of NPCs that do nothing, AI is terribly stupid and the whole environment feels so hollow and soulless. It shows potential, some of the missions are kinda fun, but it gets ruined by the lack of depth. Or maybe they added too much depth, don't know. Stealth and melee combat on FPS is also not really working, who the f*** thought of that.

    Maybe they will manage to fix the terrible bug issues in a few months and let it become a functional game. I doubt though that it will live up to its hype. It feels soooo dated.

    Played the game for more than 15 hours now, and all I can say, it’s exactly what I had in mind.
    The storyline is well written and immersive, characters feel unique, many things to do explore, never feels repetitive, overall great game.
    Few bugs here and there, with graphics not as good as next gen consoles or high end PCs but that was expected. 9/10

    It's ridiculous to want to get a rating for this game. "CDPR" committed fraud against 41% of console users. It will be necessary to carry out a large recall of current console users worldwide or provide a convincing level of patches. It's a waste of even one point.

    Cyberpunk 2077 shows a lot of promise. There are bugs and issues to be sure, but the game (at least for me) has been very playable. At the core of any game is “is it fun?” and I find myself genuinely excited to play and wanting to just explore more of the world. The verticality is amazing. And the city feels living and breathing. I’m very immersed in this world.

    Cyberpunk 2077 shows a lot of promise. There are bugs and issues to be sure, but the game (at least for me) has been very playable. At the core of any game is “is it fun?” and I find myself genuinely excited to play and wanting to just explore more of the world. The verticality is amazing. And the city feels living and breathing. I’m very immersed in this world.

    Some issues I have (outside of input lag and graphical pop-in):

    - Crafting system needs to display how much “ammo” is in a case, how much of any craftable consumables/ammo/grenades are already on the player.

    - Should not be able to purchase/craft if maximum limits have been reached which currently result in currency or components being consumed. - Need to include ways to redesign character - especially hair, nails, tattoos, and piercings. Either by attending a shop (such as a hairdresser) or even just from the bathroom mirror reflections.

    - Cybernetic implants which should be more visual, don’t change appearance of character. It’s disappointing. Personal gripes I have with the lifepath system is that it is incredibly short. And doesn’t allow me to feel as that character in that life before turning it upside down (I picked corpo path). Overall, emotionally I’d like to give Cyberpunk 2077 a 10/10 for the amount I enjoy it. But for a game about individuality and style, I’m really locked into that original decision about how I look, and not knowing what clothing etc I would find... it bothers me. I know you dont see your character much. But as someone who projects and roleplays with games as a preference, it is impacting significantly on my immersion.

    Still hopeful future updates and features will be added, once performance problems are resolved.

    I am unable to even complete the first mission of this game on Ps4 due to a Quest objective not triggering rendering the game unplayable for me. Not to mention the lack of RPG elements and horrible AI that I have witnessed in gameplay videos and testimonies of other user's experiences. This is far from the game that was advertised.

    The game is currently in the alpha version. if so, why is there no corresponding inscription on the disc box? Why did I pay for an unfinished project and have to wait for corrections? What is called a "game" called cyberpunk 2077 is impossible to play. very low resolution, low frame rate, constant bugs. Don't buy "it" until it's fixed, don't sponsor.

    In-between crashes it's fun action, and a lot of interesting tasks to work on. However, I am thinking it's best to wait until I can get my hands on a PS5, maybe in mid-2021 if I am lucky, before I play this game. Trouble is, I can't stop playing. It is struggling to run well on PS4 Pro, but 75% of the time not too bad.

    If an NPC is doing an action, they will do that action forever until the player moves.

    NPCs that are not story/side quest related have one dialog reply.

    If one NPC is assaulted, every other NPC in a large circle around the player will crouch to the floor in the same animation, even if they did not see the original assault.

    NPCs in a car will follow a specific route. If the route is even slightly interupted, for example by your car, they will cease to move forever until you remove the obstruction.

    NPCs in a car will not attempt to move or exit their vehicle if you assault them with bullets/another vehicle.

    NPCs will not acknowledge the player if they run the player over with their car.

    NPCs will not attempt to steal their vehicle back if you steal it from them.

    NPCs will not attack you or defend themselves in any way or form, even if engaged upon with just fists.

    Police spawn around the player's vision when the player is wanted, forever, until they attempt to hide or drive away.

    Police to not attempt to question, warn, or arrest the player for even the smallest crime commited, for example if you bump into them or accidently enter a private area.

    Police are incapable of driving cars and chasing the player if they drive away.

    Police will not attack hostile targets like Gangs if they are not already doing so in an activity.

    Police will know if the player has attacked an NPC in the middle of the badlands and spawn next to the player, without vehicles.

    NPCs will rarely thank or acknowledge the player if they are helped by the player.

    Scripted NPCs that have dialog will say their dialog then proceed to stand there forever. They will also repeat the same dialog if the player leaves the area and visits again later.

    The game also craxhes every couple of hours without fail. Textures don't load up. Etc etc

    An absolutely awful game, riddled with bugs, performance issues, frame rate issues, frequent crashes and some of the worst AI, RPG, crafting, driving I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. Please for your sanity do not buy this game. God-awful waste of time on the PS4.

    I've never encountered so many bugs in a launch tittle in my life like this one. How did someone looked at this and said that it was anywhere to "good enough to release".

What bothered me the most is how blurry the PS5 version (before the next gen patch) looks, it's a blurry mess, it looks like 1080p on a 4k display with zero upscaling. The PC version is the only one that looks at least sharp but the geometry and the animation of the game are so basic, that it really looks like an PS3 game in some points. The NPCs are so repetitive and they all say the same thing, there is almost zero interaction with them (except the ones that the game clearly makes it obvious that you can interact) and they just say generic stuff. Seriously I've talked to 3 NPCs and they said the exact same sentence in a row with the same voice, horrible.
    The city is very well done, but you can't interact with anything, it's just there to look good.
    The only thing that saves this game are the game's lighting, which is really good, making everything colorful and vibrant (but it's like a make up to hide how simplistic the graphics are in reality) and the story and characters of the main story which really create a connection with you and makes you very interested in the story. This is the only reason that I'm not giving it a lower score, the game is extremelly unfinished.

    Cyberpunk 2077's development cycle is close to Witcher 3's and Witcher 3 did not run as poorly as Cyberpunk.

    I launched Cyberpunk 2077 on my PS4 Slim several weeks after the release and most of the bugs were fixed, so I was able to play the game from start to finish. However, the quality of textures was painfully low, I usually had only 20-22 frames per second while driving around the city (with dips below 20), and some objects tended to disappear. The technical state and graphics of the PS4 version are awful, which is a shame, because the game itself has one of the best stories I have ever encountered, its gunplay is really good, and Night City is very impressive.

    Cyberpunk 2077 is a game brimming with potential, and it damn near reaches it on so many occasions, but the pitfalls of its development ultimately drag it down. There's still a lot to like here for RPG fans and lovers of the genre, but it's far from the generation-defining masterwork that the world was waiting for.
