So Cyberpunk 2077

My pc spend two days downloading Cyberpunk via Steam. Today I finally get to play it... CRASH! Didn't even make it to the main menu.

Apparently there is currently an issue on the Steam version of the game, where the game will flatline due to one problematic file. You can make Steam verify the file cache of the game, to hopefully fix the issue. However, this is a very slow progress, and the game will need to redownload a 7gb file. And for the record, this solution did NOT fix the issue for me... the game still crashes immediately.

That's what happened to me with Sword Coast Legends when it came out. My Steam version would always crash after the title loading. It's incredibly frustrating.

I’m a couple hours in on PS4 and haven’t seen any issues yet.

I'm only about 3 hours into PS4 and have only seen minor issues. Non lootable objects that should be (items, weapon drops, etc). So nothing major.

Apparently Adam Czinski (sp) made a statement about how management didn't fully understand the scope of the issues. As a former test and now a product owner in testing, I call BS. I'm sure @Imaculata will probably back this up, but I guarantee you that management were told of these issues and concerns and just ignored the testing and dev team.

I am playing the game on a PC (not right now, obviously, for some inane reason I needed to visit EN World before I launch the game today, i should be playing!) with i7-7700, an SSD and GeForce GTX 1070. Seems to be running fine. Some glitches, but no crashes. I think the biggest issues are really reserved for the consoles in that regard, the challenge on PC is certainly how up-to-date you are and what frame rates or resolution/effects you can still run toenjoy the game. I have not adjusted the settings much, but I suspect the frame rate could be better. But I prefer the looks over FPS.

It's an awesome game. Atmosphere, storytelling, character interactions are just brilliant.

One of the most fascinating things I realized is that the dialogs in the game basically help you decide who your character really is. Particular early hightlights (38 hours of play time, but I barely advanced the main plot) is the talk with an AI "operated" prostitute and a talk with one of the regular NPCs during a recon/stakeout style mission.

Although I experienced a couple of crashes on day one, and another after the big patch, I haven't actually experienced anything that major in the lots of hours I've been playing since then.

The one thing I really wish they'd fix is that the game doesn't consistently remember the custom settings you choose. Some days when I boot it up it's kept them all as I set them, others they're all back to default.
