    После патча 1.05 дела на PS4 Pro улучшились. Далеко не идеально, но уже играбельно. Оценку поднимаю и жду (хотя осадок все равно останется) дальнейших изменений.

    False advertisement, the game does NOT work properly on old generation of consoles, it should have never been released on PS4

    This game is an unplayable mess on the original Playstation 4 with framerates constantly dropping to below 20 and bugs showing throughout the experience (in extremely low resolution). The entire marketing around this game was deceptive, as CD Projekt Red never showed the way game works on the original Playstation 4, but assured gamers that it works "surprisingly well". Avoid at all costs.

    They could've just acknowledged the game can't run on PS4 and I and others would've adjusted expectations accordingly.

    Instead, they hid horrible gameplay, enacted review embargos, and had company reps blatantly and directly lie to our faces about the state of the game, all so they could steal money from our pockets.

    I can't imagine ever giving this game another chance on any console. The company could've just been honest instead of stealing money from such a large fan base with improper expectations. Unless they go on a serious apology tour, I'm done with this company and their games forever.

    I have spent about 15 hours in the game on a PS4 Pro and here is what i experienced.

    Performance/technical side

    ... is somewhat decent, framerate drops are rare since the 1.04 update, pop-ups as well, reflections and textures have been fixed. i would say the current state of visuals/performance is quite good. Only thing that still annoys me is the muddy, blurred overall look. On the other hand the game has lots of anyway dark/night passages, so i can get along with that well. Watch the comparison video here on meta and you will see what i mean. Loading times are a bit nerve wracking. All in all the technical-side doesn't cause much pain. That is on PS4 Pro, users of the base-model might have a different experience, to say the least. As for me i have not had any crashes or major glitches. 7/10

    Story & Characters

    ... are both well developed and written. Atmosphere is great, speaker-cast a blast. Even Side-Missions are very detailed and resourceful. A really authentic cyberpunk vibe fuels a feeling of being sucked in into a unique world you want to explore. 9/10

    Gameplay

    ... Menus and Item-management are well designed, character development is intuitive, meaningful and complex in a good way. Especially the cyberware-features are really unique. Steering seems a bit flawed at times. My cursors seems to be moving constantly. Not nice. Gun play and combat on the other hand fell really great and satisfying. 8/10

    My overall rating = 8/10
    I think that does the PS4(Pro)-Version justice.
    Cheers.

You can fix the graphics and the bugs with patches, you can't fix bad design decisions.

I do not know what CD Project was guided by and why they decided to release the game in such an obscene form, but I already wrote in support of Sony so that they would return the money to me. And I recommend it to everyone. You cannot pay for a product of this quality. Otherwise, next time their game will not work at all on release and we will wait for patches for several weeks. The company completely lost confidence in my eyes for such a technical state of the game. Shame and disgrace. Expand

If CDPR manage to fix just half of this issues I’ll give it a 10/10. But they lied about the state of the game, that it would run well and look amazing on current gen, and hid it from us by not sending console reviews copies to the reviewers. I’m utterly disappointed of a company I truly believed was the best. And for those justifying it by saying “it’s a next gen game” then why did they release it on the PS4? And why is the PS5 running the boosted PS4 version instead of a native PS5 version. Expand

And it is horrible, looking like mediocore PS3 game when you're lucky or good-looking PS2 game when you're not... When I first started the game I thought that I have my glass off, then that I am looking on original Deus Ex with vaseline all over my TV screen (Corpo origin). And with tons of bugs and glitches, it's almost impossible to have any positive experience. I would like to enjoy the game, but I feel scammed and CD Projekt RED execs are just laughing how they messed up whole PS4 community which even couldn't ask for refund because of stupid SONY politics. Well done, CD Projekt, well done. You should've apologised and post-pone (or cancel) PS4 release as this is not, by any means, product you advertised, but then you've lose all those sweet money you've ripped off your customers who trusted you.

    DON'T BUY THIS GAME.

    The bugs is the least of the problems, those were bound to happen like every open-world RPG, it's the terrible graphical resolution, the lack of decent framerate and specially the constant crashes that makes this game a trainwreck.
    If any other publisher like Bethesda, Ubisoft or EA had released a games (which they had) in the state they realeased this game, such publishers would had received a gigantic backlash from the fans (which they had as such games as Fallout 76, WatchDogs and Anthem). And yet, because it's CDProjeckt Red it gets a pass?
    "oH bUt tHe GaMe wAs suPpOssEd tO bE pLAyeD on ThE NeXT GeN COnsOlEs Or PC!" I can hear the mouthbreaths say. Yet CDPR announced the game and it followed with trailers and announcements for PS4 and XBOX One, way before the PS5 and XBOX SEX were announced. If the game was never meant for PS4 and XBOX One then don't market and sell a PS4 and Xbox version! CDPR even did the scummy thing of hiding the bad console versions by not showing game footage and not giving review codes. Now I'm pretty sure that if EA did such a thing we would have an army at their doorstep in the next morning, but again CDPR can't do no wrong, and so just keep your head down and consume.
    Don't buy the PS4 and XBox versions, not even for the "free" PS5 and Xbox SEX updated version. Just buy PC or wait for when the ACTUAL Ps5 and Xbox SEX versions comes out.
    And **** CDPR! It is as scummy and **** as any other "AAA" Game company.

However, the product that CD Projekt Red released for console players is far from running smoothly or even being in an acceptable state. The frame-rate is abysmal whenever seomthing actually happens on screen.
    The textures (once they load) are muddy and blurry. It's like having Vaseline in your eyes and shooting enemies comes down to aiming at a red mark, because you can't really make out their faces/bodies if they're more than 10 meters away.
    I can deal with downgraded graphics but if it looks SO MUCH worse than, for example, a 3.5 year old Horizon: Zero Dawn, you're doing something wrong. Worst part is, they apparently knew, as there were no console reviews allowed before the release.
    The game as such looks promising, the atmosphere (from what I've been able to tell) is convincing and the voice acting is great. However, the flaws on last gen are overwhelming and I just can't give this a better score.

    Reminder: Don't pre-order games.

All this time we were told that the game is being created for the consoles of the previous generation, and that the version on ps5 will be released next year, but how does it happen that the target platform looks so bad? No, of course I understand that there are hardware limitations and so on, but until the very end, hiding how the ps4 version will look from both the players and the press is not the best long-term solution. Low resolution, long loading of elements even when you are in V's apartment, terrible textures for objects that the game itself pokes you with (at the mirror in the apartment, for example), crashes, FPS drawdowns up to 15 and so on. The PS4 version is unplayable, and the native PS5 version is absent at all, maybe it was not worth going out on the console at all, or only going to PS5, if the game is conviend only for new hardware? CD project, did you really know what generation you're making the game for? It's a pity that CDPR just wanted to make money on pre-orders from ps4, my score zero, thx =(

    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.
