Can you hack cars? I just realized that beyond driving them and using the trunk there is really nothing else to the cars.

You can break into people's cars. It's a good way to grind experience.

Arc Hammer posted:The badlands variants of the cars are all super fun to drive. I'm a big fan of the Coyote you posted and the Archer Quartz Bandit. I like the 99k one, can't remember the nickname for it, but it's the not-mustang. For city driving I bought the Rayfield and it probably is the fastest car with the best handling, although being long as poo poo causes some issues sometimes.

I was messing around with overclocking my CPU today and managed to get cyberpunk hovering around 38~45 fps with rtx on. Should I be capping fps to 40 or 30?

i wish the game had jewelry and whatnot, tho totally disconnected from stats at all. or that i could change tattooes. oh well. been driving Murk Man's car more than i had before, and it's okay. I'm wrecking it less than usual. the driving just doesn't feel like driving, but Forza is one of the only other games i play, so of course this won't measure up. it just has the feel of being weightless in an odd way, i guess.

The only three vehicles that matter are the Javelina, the akira bike, and jackie's bike Everything else is completely interchangeable and devoid of worth

I get why the controls leave the camera as a free look while car controls are WASD but I'd sacrifice that if I could have Halo Warthog style mouse look driving with WASD being for slight tweaks only.

Finished the anime. Pretty cool, definitely one of the better video game adaptations/tie-ins I've seen. Some jank animation with the CGI cars, the reused backgrounds, focusing on the backs of character's heads so you don't have to see their lips move, etc, but otherwise it had a lively style and the parts they put the budget into were fluid and impactful. Starting with a younger character still in school was a neat choice, you don't see that perspective in the game and the first episode drives home just how poo poo life in Night City is and why so many become cyberpunks in the first place. Sad that I've basically ran out of classic cyberpunk media to consume, outside of the other two Sprawl books, the GitS show and a few bits and pieces here and there. I'll add my own recommendations to the list if anyone cares still (hey don't blame me for only now getting into this, blame the devs for releasing an unfinished game lol) Videodrome and Tetsuo: The Iron Man - Two surreal body horror films that, while not set in the future, fit within the themes of the genre. Videodrome is about a pirate snuff channel that alters your mind's eye and the rebel new flesh that seeks to overthrow it. Does Jean Baudrillard better than The Matrix and completely by coincidence, having been written concurrently with Simulacra and Simulation. Tetsuo is about a guy who gets infected with this living metal organism and goes full cyberpsycho. Think of it as less of a robot and more like a tangled mass of metal and wires jutting out of human body and you'll understand why this is a famously grotesque film. Like if Adam Smasher was cobbled together by the people on Junkyard Wars. A really silly and relatively brief Japanese indie film on a small budget. Also surprised eXistenZ, another Cronenberg, wasn't on the list to begin with. It's one of the best movies about virtual reality and rebels fighting an evil corporation ever made. Finally, not cyberpunk at all, not even science fiction, but if you want to watch a camera make sweet, sensual love to a dense East Asian city at night, then check out Fallen Angels.

At 20 ref you're still slower than cars, but unless you've gotta run 1KM or more you sure don't feel slower. Especially in the parts of town where it's easier to get on roofs and run in a straight line.

After messing with my 8600k there was no noticable difference when I played around with settings other than rtx and dlss on the fps. Going from stock to 5ghz gave me a good 10fps. I'm gonna mess around with fan curves and undervolting/overclocking the GPU next to see what that does.

So is there some explanation about the small war in City Center that breaks out against what appears to be corp soldiers and robots? I was driving through there to pick up my car and immediately they all decided to kill V. They didn't. But they tried.

That's by the Dynalar fast travel terminal iirc, I never figured out what was up with that either. If you don't waltz straight into it you can let both sides weaken each other before you clean them all up
