CD Projekt RED released the first three hotfixes for Cyberpunk 2077 on December 11th, 19th and 23rd.


That was because they F up badly. Such stress is absolutely unnecessary and can be avoided with good planning and procedures.

A player named ECHO_ROMEO, was ganking AX pilots around taranis yesterday, the guy kept taunting players and trash talking them as if they were able to fight back. I considered fighting him in his fdl with a chieftain, but then i said to self " well is not like he is giving this people a fighting chance, hes ganking ships that can't fight back, maybe he should get a taste of the same" So i brought a cutter, needless to say as soon as he saw it the salt began to pour from every hole in his body. He proceeded to complain about how i had brought a "coping cutter" for his plasma rammer biweave 540m/s fdl ( he missed 50% of his shost when i FA off on the cutter and kept up with him while touching him gently with beamns , corrosive cannons and packhounds. The double standard was real and the trahs talk turned into a passive whining he tried to hide in system chat with "cool guy talk"( however he couldn't stop sprinkling salt in system chat).It is funny to see how the old adage still applies, PUNCH THAT BULLY ON THE NOSE REAL GOOD ONE TIME, AND THAT BULLY TURNS INTO A BUNNY REAL QUICK.

This last update really has killed my enthusiasm (or what was left of it) of playing Odyssey; the issues are piling up it's just too much at this point. Tonight I thought I'd kill a few Thargoids, just to pass the time. Everything, literally everything was bugged. Not a single instance worked, UI locks, lag, rubber-banding, Covas sound disappearing (which means I didn't get the Goid charge prompt either), FC assets misaligning (can't interact with Exobio staff as they're too far away). God help you if you're trying to be productive and under pressure to get things done (I hear there's a war going on with weekly reset timers).

Then there's the mission board issues which FDev chose to leave in the game until somewhere next year (no delivery date for a fix, of course).

There are more problems but I'm frankly bored listing them. It's all just a waste of time, in a sense that you can't even extract fun out of this game for like 10 minutes anymore without something breaking or glitching out on you, it's really falling apart in front of my eyes it's sad to see.

I'm selling all my EDO assets including lots of data so feel free to help yourselves, will then decommission my FC - if it doesn't spark joy, it has to go and all that - and largely stick to Legacy for my Elite fix every now and then. It just plays and looks better in comparison, despite its age.

i would not put the head down.. things getting better.. one day.. just take a break if the game is pissing you off. of course there are many things to fix ingame but for me it´s playable, even in open. only a few glitches from time to time. private group is running very good. internet connection should not the problem, i´m playing via lte router. i guess you need better hardware. for me it take some time to get all parts together for my ´little monster´ -not only for gaming, but makes fun and a difference when you playing on a good machine. last year my grafic card wasn´t the best but scince i bought a new one the game is running fine. fdev took the requirements for a good gameplay to high i think, with theire immature product. we are still the test rabbits for update after update after update.. and the story continue..

Appreciate the encouraging words but my threshold of what I can accept has been reached - am actually surprised I lasted this long post EDO release (and am well used to the funky ways FD choose to maintain their product as a player since 2015). To be perfectly clear though, it's not me, it's not my PC, or my internet, or my neighbor's dog. It's the 4.0 client (and FDs dodgy networking), plain and simple really.

And after 14 patches and an excruciating 1.5 years of trying to get Elite back on track I no longer believe they have it in them to achieve it, sadly.

Thankfully 3.8 is still around to remind myself why I fell in love with this game previously.

After three weeks of grueling thargoid grinding, i am hanging my gauss cannons. It just got boring from one minute to the next, mindlessly killing space flowers, banking all this credist, for what? there are no new ships to buy, no new vehicles or anything to spend it on. There is no real endgame to this whole war, other than losing stations and systems.THEN AGAIN I have my personal station with all services on it, 22 ships and a 500ly range whenever i need to move ( i dont even engineer fsd's anymore). So for all that is worth, patch 14 is just garbage-slapped-together-content. Nothing new, nothing better, just same boring crap we had before but more of it.
SAD DAY TO BE AN ELITE PLAYER

At least I'm not feeling sad about not having too much time to play, even after I decided to give this game another try.

The mission board is driving me crazy. I'm sitting on a mission to deliver 50 units of Palladium to Abraham Lincoln station in Sol, with a reward of 20mil credits. I was THIS close to getting to done last night, but ran out of time before the servers shut down for maintenance. Today, I got back in, with the intention of turning it in and continuing to grind Federation rank (the Corvette is my ultimate goal), only to find the mission board bugging out.

And the worst part is that apparently, FDev can't fix it right now because everyone is off for Christmas. I'm not even about to try the port forwarding thing because I'm on Xfinity X1, and you have to jump through extra hoops involving downloading an app for your phone.

I wrote an angry logbook entry pinning the blame on the Pilot's Federation (because let's face it, the Pilot's Federation represents FDev in-universe). I haven't made it public yet, because it ends with my in-universe counterpart calling the Pilot's Federation lazy and demanding they fix it now, and I'm not sure if I'd get in trouble for that.

Its an RP I highly doubt you would get in trouble for calling it like you see it. Hell most people here agree that the mission board issue is BS. Evacuation and rescue teams for the thargoid war are getting screwed by it. People are losing rep, progress is being halted in certain instances due to the bug. I sat a few times with passengers as my mission timer expired. I lost some very desirable grade 5 rarity materials I am needing.

I really enjoyed reading this. Thanks for sharing your story.

Sounds familiar. Any ship they can't gank is a "cope" ship.

What is it with all these rich tourists spending their dream holidays on rescue ships lately?

Current rant is (broken?) destination points. Worked in 3 maelstroms, every delivery is bound to Tarach Tor. Seriously?
