I have a (4gb) 1070 too, so I'm vaguely interested in your results. I'm likely more hosed by my CPU though, which is a rather outdated 3.5ghz i5-6600k.

Either this game is very well optimized or I got incredibly lucky. I got a i5 6500K, GTX 1070, and 16gb of ram and can do 1080p 60fps on high settings without ever losing frames even in areas that are FPS heavy. It almost feels like CPU doesn't even matter as long as you have a decent videocard. Usually my cpu bottlenecks me hard but not in this game. I'm almost tempted to see if I can push it to ultra but high looks beautiful to me. Surprised the heck out of me.

how much ram does your 1070 have? You're not accidentally leaving off the Ti are you?

Don't give me false hope. :ohdear:

my friend says it is "really smooth" on 1080p high with a 3rd gen i5, 12GB RAM, and a 1070 non-ti

the person reporting 60+ is probably mostly on the CPU, I 100% buy it

yeah, I might go for it. The problem is my monitor is 2560x1440 :v: I mean I could play it at a lower resolution if that proves an issue.

So does finishing act 1 (or whatever hits the title card) lock you out of any stuff? Are all the side tasks in the prologue stuff you can only do in the prologue?

So how do I get the cops to leave me alone? I stumbled into some gangers about to kill some civies "killing is fun!" so I started taking shots at them, but this just got the cops on the scene and I had to book it. Got away, but now I guess I have a warrant and every time I turn the corner and run into some beat cop walking the streets they pull their gat on me and start blasting. Kinda making things a hassle.

Am I just running into a bug? Does no one else have the cops agro them on-sight after committing a "crime" even after successfully evading the police (multiple times)? Like, I had that shoot out a while back and they're still on my case the second they see me strolling down the street, taking in the city.

So Cyberpunk side job at the docks spoilers "Dirty Biz"

after going stealthy and bloodless, sneaking into a gang hideout to recover a BD chip I ended up running into the father/son pair editing child snuff BDs and got so royally pissed off by their comments ("Oh, which one? we got a whole batch [of kid snuff] recently, can't remember names" "Eh, we're just filling a demand, if not us someone else would be doing it." "hey wanna see some sick poo poo, we can share!" etc) that the second I had what I wanted I cold-blooded shot the son in the head (he was the bigger creep) and gave the dad just enough time to be anguished before I shot him in the head too. walked out doming every gangbanger in the joint.

I feel completely justified.

Sort of getting tired of doing side gigs/missions only to find I don't have an attribute level high enough to complete it. Think this is the 3rd or 4th one. Seems like a obvious thing to lock those out until I can get to that point but guess not

How are you getting locked out? If you mean you literally can't get into a place there is probably some kind of entrance you're missing. Have you checked the roof? Looked Shutters you can hack open?

For the hacking game, don't be afraid to exit out before starting it. it'll reset the sequences and crossword grid. Sometimes this makes it much easier, especially if you're aiming for all 3 nodes (and you should, buy a deck with a max size (8?) buffer ASAP). You're basically looking for sequences that string together.

This is only sort of true and/or not true at all. Ive sat in an empty office surrounded by walls with no cameras and still get overheat casts

I have no idea if this is true or not, but maybe they pinged something to find you? :v: I mean, if you can use ping to see dudes through walls... maybe they can do the same?

Digital Jedi posted:

The door required body 20 and I'm at 8. It was to recover a guy for Okdada and the room was blackout (lost power) and was barely visible walking around. I tried to look to see if there was a top hatch or something but didn't have anything. It was total black if you weren't standing in one or two spots

Whats the mission name and can you give a rough location? I'll go check it out myself and see.

I want whatever gun Johnny was using in his intro section, where it just one or two shotted people and for 3 minutes shooting in this game was actually fun.

I'm going to assume thats the game's take on the Malorian Arms 3516, which was a custom-order pistol built to Johnny's specs (though the company immediately started selling a limited production run of it after Johnny got his).

It was pretty much THE best handgun in Cyberpunk 2020.

Edgey Looking chick, dumbass in a black trenchcoat, bad hairdye and stupid gizmo on his face, murderhobo in a flame-print black/orange army jacket with assault rifle.

Cripes it looks so bad on my computer compared to some of the screenshots you all are sharing, lol

As it should. The timed quest, well the timed quest that will fail by inaction, is bar none one of the worst pieces of trash in gameplay. I can understand certain missions having internal time limits, but I still don't like it, and prefer when I can look over every drat thing. You can still make something feel tense without needing me to feel like I have to do time trials.

I'm also glad that V's Relic Malfunction anemia attacks seem to be scripted. Anyone else remember how lovely Fary Cry 2's random Malaria attacks were?

I haven't finished the game but I dunno. I suspect it might be important. You tend to find the cards at plot relevant locations and they often fit the theme of the story beat there.

I doubt too many people are interested. But if you wanna dig into some of the old lore behind Cyberpunk, humble bundle currently has a shitton of classic Cyberpunk 2020 books up. The $8 tier gets you all the essentials and then some while above that is some of the later or more esoteric stuff.
