Gaming Cyberpunk 2077 (PC, PS4/5, Xbox One)

For anyone getting this on disc on Xbox, you can pre load it right now from the App.
Ive only done an hour or so. Looks pretty cool so far. Only real complaint early on is the acting etc and voice work feels pretty wooden but its also a style Im not used to so will probably get used to it pretty quickly. Runs pretty smoothly on my PS4, quite a bit to take in at first. Still getting used to the controls etc.
I've not really heard, I just saw a lot of graphics options to fine tune. I imagine his machine is the best it can be, but he's talking about 50-60fps with most settings to medium, no idea of the res he's using but you'd expect with those settings it had to be true 4k.
I saw both he and Loserfruit walking around and the city definitely drops lots of frames but seems ok for density, though not crazy.
You can try it right now, it's already 3 am in New Zealand. Report back to us.
Just saw some screenshots of the settings, there is indeed a population density slider under gameplay settings
Also from what I know Shroud doesn't have a 4k monitor.
Is it a game I should buy now or can it wait?
Remember spoiler basically most shit to be sure. People will be at different stages of the game.

Nice! And to make it seem better, the default settings are pretty low on the scale, he hadn't changed much. Hence both he and chat moaning about the mirror quality until he saw a slider
I'll let you know within a few hours of playing tomorrow.
Though it looks a little more promising than I expected.
Why would anyone have an Xbox in the first place?
I won't be able to until at least 8pm
Fair play to SkillUp. Delaying his review so he didn't have to comply to CDPR ridiculous decision to not allow reviewers to use their own footage has probably cost him a decent wedge in ad revenue.
I think everything needs to be spoilered. The fact small decisions can have huge impacts on events means most people will have entirely different experiences throughout
Yeah definitely
15GB update now on my Xbox for it, incase anyone else has 'instant-on' on but update not automatically done for some reason (like me)
Good for them.
I find it rather weird, and even a little bit pathetic in a way, that so many people seem to think this should simply be accepted because it's CDPR and you know, "the witcher 3 launched with problems!". Well yeah, but that doesn't mean we should just accept if something is rushed and not quite finished.
I'd always take a fully realised game (and I'm not talking bugs here) and wait, than a rushed game that has to lose out some of what the vision was. I'm not saying Cyberpunk is like that, but it wouldn't surprise me if like some of the past games (KOTOR2, Vampire the Masquerade, Bioshock:Infinite spring to mind instantly) there has been content dumbed and even cut altogether just to meet this latest deadline.
Do you have other games to play? If you do, then wait.
That is my advice to people who are going to play it on consoles. If you don’t really care about performance or bugs then go ahead and play it.
What do you mean? You can preload the game if you buy it digitally from the PS store.
Fallout New Vegas and Skyrim were riddled with bugs at launch - still played them and loved them.
As far as I'm aware. If not I've just paid a 5er extra for no reason
The app and website are broken regarding preloading through them since the update. You could do that on the PS4 app and add it to your download list.
So I won't be able to preload through the ps5?
You can. You just need to do it via the console and not the app/website. As that parts broken since they upgraded both for some reason.
Quelle surprise. Something isn’t working on the ps5
That's sound. I'll set it going when I get home.
Yeh as Bojan explained you can do it through the console which I did yesterday. I also did a small update but I’m guessing when I launch the game there will be a further update which hopefully won’t take too long.
I only became aware of SkillUp during TLOU2 controversy when certain posters started using his review as a means to justify their agendas.
Honestly it put me off watching him, but when I eventually did, he's refreshingly impartial and I find i agree with him on most things. IMO the best reviewer out there atm. If he's saying it's good inspite of the bugs it bodes well.
OK, I've tried now and it doesn't work. At least not on my PS4 - I'm fairly sure it won't work on the PS5 either.
Oh give it a fecking rest you Cider wannabe.
I say this after seeing my GF lose a whole day of grinding because of a storage bug on the shitty ps5!
Grinding you say? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I did read it worked on Xbox but not PlayStation but that could be a myth.
To be fair CDPR gave an unpatched version to reviewers to allow them to get reviews ready in time for release. They didn't want pre-release footage going out on screenshots as it would just turn into shots of random bugs. They said any footage must be from the day 1 patch provided from release. I can see why they would want this as every video would be from a not quite finished game. Having saying that, bet it's a bugfest anyway initially.
Some reviewers have said they will base their reviews on the day 1 patch and not mentioned the screenshots, which is a better way of saying it I think as they want the review to be gameplay (not just footage) of the finished version.

It would have been better PR for them to just allow any and all footage though. This kind of restriction harms their reputation as a good guy in the industry. It's not like they really gained anything: pretty much everyone confirms that yes, the game has a lot of bugs. In addition to that, a lot of people also call out the company on their behaviour. One of these things at least would have been avoidable.
I'll still spend 15+ hours playing the game tomorrow, mind you.
Am i the only one playing this on base PS4? Probably won't get my ps5 until next year.
I will be playing it on the original PS4 but might wait a bit
Damage limitation most likely
