Frame rate issues, texture issues, things just disappearing, wonky NPC animations, reactions. Menu issues, customization issues. Freezing. Game just turning off. Game shutting my xbox off! I get the scope of this game is enormous. I get how complicated all the moving parts are and how many systems have to be running at the same time to handle it all. But this is really bad. This should have not been released in the state it’s in. It should have either been delayed by another 6 months for refinement and polish or delayed until ready and only released on xbox series x and ps5. I wanted to like this game so much, and there’s so much to want to like but the bugs and issues take all that away. I’m absolutely disappointed and sorely let down by Project CD Red. So many of us were excited, didn’t mind the delays knowing we would get a better game for it, but this???? This isn’t acceptable on any level, especially from them and especially after The Witcher 3 and the great work they’ve previously done. Expand

    Can confirm the game is broken as **** Seriously let down that a game originally made for last gen consoles is all of a sudden unplayable. Between textures not loading & incredibly sorry frame rate, this game shouldn't have been released. I've been played!

    I'll start by saying I'm sorry to hear how the game is running on gen 8 consoles, that is inexcusable

    However my review was completed on the series x and frankly... I did not have these issues. The game runs at a smooth 60 FPS in performance mode, I did turn off all the video effects except for lens flare, I found the picture to be much more crisp that way. The story, characters, quest

    However my review was completed on the series x and frankly... I did not have these issues. The game runs at a smooth 60 FPS in performance mode, I did turn off all the video effects except for lens flare, I found the picture to be much more crisp that way.

    The story, characters, quest design, dialogue, random world events are all on an exceptional level to which you would expect from CD Projekt Red. I expect to play through this game many times over the years like I do still with the Witcher and other RPGS. But what this ads on top of an experience like the witcher is the ability to replay the game with different characters, in different ways. I have not been so strict on my role playing in a long time!

    Gun play and combat is also excellent, much better than I expected to be perfectly honest.

    Driving is not it's strong suit, I was disappointed to find that it is very difficult to drive in first person, as I had planned to stick strictly to that way of driving to make the role play that much more immersive.

    I would experience the odd pop in NPCs, but not as much as I am hearing others experience on other platforms.

    The only bug I really had worth mentioning is an NPC I was supposed to talk to for a mission was not there, but a quick save and reload fixed that right away.

    In the end, if you are excited for CP, it runs more than okay on series x, if you are still on the fence then there is no harm in waiting for more patches or even the next gen upgrade.

    Love the game but it has quite a few bugs. Npcs t-posing when being touched slightly with a car, cops spawning inside buildings but can still shoot me, character going bald when equipping Headwear, textures now loading quickly, and some others.

This is going to be The Witcher 3 all over again, it's going to have a bit of a tough launch, but after all of it's updates, it's going to be considered a modern day masterpiece. This game is going to be the exact same way. Expand

    On a base XBox One this is basically not playable. I can't even imagine what would have happened if it came out in April. The graphics are 720p at best and it's buggy as hell. I don't know if they can do anything about the performance on old gen, I just hope it'll be better on next gen.

    I bought this game with high anticipation, but also grounded in reality knowing nothing is perfect and yes I've had multiple crashes and some texture/game issues but that only slightly takes away from the experience and since I'm on Xbox One I knew my experience with performance wasn't going to be up to par because this game was going to be very heavy for this console to push properly andI bought this game with high anticipation, but also grounded in reality knowing nothing is perfect and yes I've had multiple crashes and some texture/game issues but that only slightly takes away from the experience and since I'm on Xbox One I knew my experience with performance wasn't going to be up to par because this game was going to be very heavy for this console to push properly and yes it sucks but that is life I at least get to play the game and trust that CD Project Red will do their utmost in trying to optimize it for their fans cause look how good they took care of the Witcher. There are things I dont like about the game storywise, mainly the romance options being locked to specific genders even though you can turn yourself into whatever you want, be it trans, straight, or gay, but making it where an NPC only likes a specific gender is a little BS but it is what it is. The only reason I'm giving this a 9 is because I know if I had a better console thats what the game deserves it not the games nor is it CD Project Reds fault I can't afford a higher priced system so my rating shouldn't be based on something thats my fault, it should be based on the game itself. Well thats it, this is my opinion if you read it thx and have a great one Expand

    After playing this game for a few hours I started to feel nauseas looking at this blurry, low resolution game. Even with all of the graphics options turned off, anything a few yards away from my character would be blurry and grainy/shiny- not a good looking shiny.

I’m not asking for ultra graphics with ray-tracing on my bad Xbox one- I’m asking for a game that at least runs a little bit with average graphics. That’s all I wanted, nothing groundbreaking, just an average performance. I didn’t get that and none of us on Xbox one got that. This is unacceptable. Expand

    Pre-ordered, had my expectations in check, and knew what I was getting into.

    Nope.

    This game is a mess. I played it on the Xbox One X and it is a technical disaster. Do not buy this game. At some point it will likely be worth your money, but today is not that day.

    Even without bugs, glitches and bad performances, this game is not more than a visual novel and walking simulator. The roleplaying layer is laughable, and every mechanisms in the game are as superficial as rare.

    I would have give it a 6/10 and maybe 7/10 for visuals, but the release is a technical shipwreck, an a mass heist against console players.

    Piekekna gra wyprzedzajaca swoje czasy. Gram na XSX we wstecznej kompatybilności i nie mam problemów oprócz drobnych błędów, które pojawiają się w każdej produkcji. Niesamowita historia, wzbogacona misjami pobocznymi, przepiękne miasto, świetna fizyka jazdy, rozbudowany system RPG i przyjemna fizyka strzelania.

    The game is filled with glitches, way more then usual. This game was obviously not even close to being ready for release. Customers were robbed... wouldn’t recommend for at least half an year until it gets patched properly.

    Game runs very bad on base consoles, even the pro version. We got lied that the game was delayed to fix the performance if consoles... it is borderline unplayable in

You can see that there was a lot that went into the creation and development of this game, but I have never had any console game hard crash as much as this one. Ever. I have had consoles since the PS1/PS2 era. Maybe I was fortunate in the past, but it makes it very difficult to give this game anything but a mediocre score if it's unplayable as it was intended to be experience. All of that said this game has the most vibrant, lived in setting I have ever seen. The voice acting alone has me coming back after every frustrating game crash because it is easily some of the best I've experienced. My biggest issue with this game, outside of the technical ones, is I don't really have a sense of what I'm supposed to be doing. Most of the time that's okay because there's so much to take in, but the tutorial level was frankly garbage. I'm so tired of VR tutorials. It's what a hack developer would do for their game (pun intended). I'm also in a little bit of shock at the core game loop and the action elements of this game. They feel old and dated. That's compounded because the controls are stiff and gun play at first is very loose as you need to progress and make your recoil and aim better and tighter. As far as the game play is concerned I'm not sure if the mission based "go here and do this" main quests/side quest really does anything but bring the game down because the behind the wheel driving physics are definitely lacking and getting anywhere in the car sucks me right out of the game. The hacking mechanic is fine, but ultimately confusing at first because there is SOOO much to keep an eye on for leveling your character and how your "RAM," or the cost of hacking, is utilized and necessary to execute any hack. The hacking mini game however still makes no sense to me and I will have to look up what it is they want me to do when that is happening.

    I'm having fun in the game in spite of the above issues. I like the characters. I love the world and it's potential and I know in time this game will get patched. I know in time there will more content. However, this is the game that was released and the best I see this deserves is a somewhere in the land of mediocre.

    It’s because of this fun gameplay and this great story that it’s such a shame Cyberpunk 2077 performs like it’s still in alpha.

    Overall, I think there’s a lot to like when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077, which has been unfortunately marred by poor performance issues on a number of platforms, and some poor communication (along with some overpromising) on the part of the publisher. It’s clear that a lot of work went into putting this game together, and it’s unfortunate that it had to release in a state that feels a little unfinished. It’s still a game you can very much derive enjoyment from, even in its current state but your ability to overlook open-world bugs and performance issues is certainly going to factor in quite a bit.

    Cyberpunk 2077 didn't meet my expectations, but also didn't disappoint me. It delivered an RPG experience like no other, delving deep into themes like control, awareness and addiction. The combat is great and the graphics are amazing, but the bugs and some under-cooked systems make it seem like the devs got lazy, and that's always a bad sign. (Played on Xbox Series X)
