There is apparently a “David Martinez” (Name of Edgerunner Protagonist) drink at the Afterlife in CP2077 So… don’t get too attached

Alright, this guy is one of those “rage” YouTubers that plays into backlash for clicks, but this is a bit of an interesting story. He alleges to have received an email from a whistleblower at Quantic Lab (Third party QA company used by CDPR on Cyberpunk 2077) describing their practices. Apparently the company was understaffed and misrepresented to CDPR how many testers they had working on the project and how experienced they were (Many were newly hired juniors with next to no QA experience to try and make up for the manpower shortage). Management at Quantic Lab allegedly imposed bug finding quotas, which resulted in the testers finding and reporting many superficial and easy to find bugs but core issues went poorly documented.
Kinda gives new context to that statement that QA didn’t find the problems early on.

It's not like they were 100% reliant on Quantic Lab, they have their own QA team and game engine programmers, they also worked with Digital Scapes which they later acquired and QLOC.

When you set an unreal deadline, sometimes your teams crunch out a good game sometimes they don't. I'm just glad that I don't work for a game developer.

I don’t mean to suggest this absolves them, but if they weren’t doing enough internal testing on diverse hardware (ie doing it mostly on high end PCs where it played fine even at release) and relying on Quantic Labs for that, it explains a bit about how so many egregious errors were missed.

Well I finally got to play this game about a month ago on the base ps4. I played on 1.31 and also a bit on 1.51. Definitely playable if you're accustomed to 30 fps, not as many crashes/glitches as I was expecting. Graphics are really good for last-gen. I think the only real noticeable difference between the two patches is reduced crowd density (and maybe also less pop-in when driving at top speed). While they could just end the story, regardless of which ending you choose, I think there's room for more too. It kinda reminds me of Andromeda in terms of unresolved plots; they can explore the loose ends or leave them to our imagination, either is feasible. I saved one lifepath for when/if I ever get a ps5/xsx. Also I'd definitely be interested in seeing how they integrate the dlc. There are only three possibilities right? Crystal, Combat, or even a combination of both...?

I have to commend them for sticking with Cyberpunk this long. I really thought they'd release a couple patches and bail, especially since they're switching engines.

I was looking for a game about a month back, and ended up getting this for the PS4 (apparently it's still quite bad on Xbox One.) I ended up really loving the game, though the bugs make it a real chore at times. I'm on my second playthrough, and much like when I play games like New Vegas or Fallout 4, my second playthrough is where I notice all the quest-breaking bugs messing with quests I managed to finish blind the first time. I am... having to do a lot of research, but so far I've managed to get even some of the most broken quests working. Most importantly, this time, I'm going to get a less depressing ending to the Judy relationship. I mean really now... how is slaughtering Arasoka in a suicide mission that spares everyone also cancer to my relationship with Judy? NO FAIR! Also, I apparently made Kaley Cuoco without intending to: Which I've decided I'm fine with.

www.cyberpunk.net/news/45280/edgerunners-update-patch-1-6-list-of-changesTLDR if you didn't watch: Patch 1.6 is the last major patch for last gen consoles in terms of new features, bug fixes will still come. New items inspired by Edgerunners. New mission tie-in for Edgerunners. New weapons in general. New gigs in general. Transmog system in the form of a wardrobe in the apartments. Preview clothes before buying. More customization options in the character creator/mirror/ripperdocs. More photo mode stuff. (including Nibbles!) Teaser trailer for the expansion called "Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty", coming 2023. (won't be coming to last gen consoles) Arcade minigame within the game called "Roach Race", it's also available standalone on Android/iOS for free, no microstransactions. Cross-progression between platforms. (via cloud saves) 60 FPS mode for XBSS New modding tools called "REDmod". They also talked about improving the police system and vehicular combat, tho they didn't make it clear if it's coming with 1.6 or a future update.

Future updates and not really promised, but it's what they want to release in future updates along a revamp of the melee combat loop was mentioned, but I'm not sure what he meant about that. They also announced REDmod. The game is getting an official modding tool. Full patch notes

Thank god they're revamping the police system, and we're getting vehicular combat. I wasn't sure if they could pull this off.

The wardrobe is amazing, it's basically "create your own outfits" (6 of them) and you can use items that are in your stash or inventory regardless of the level requirements.
You can now run around Night City in boxers only! while wearing a full maxed legendary set mechanically

I’m also pretty sure that much of the features released now are not on older-gen. The only thing mentioned to not be on old-gen is the "more secrets" in the patch note. They probably wanted the cross progression system in before cutting them off.

Phantom Liberty. The expansion that we've all been waiting for. Oh, Johnny. You saying taking that oath is a bad idea just makes me want to do it more if only to piss you off even further. On a serious note, I wonder if this expansion will be mostly it's own enclosed thing or more connected to the main story like say another route to try to save yourself.

It unlocks new endings is what I read. My guess is one of those could be V actually safely getting rid of Jhonny, which would be a convenient retcon.

There was a leak a while back from what I read (i.e. files related to the expac found themselves in patch 1.5 apparently) and people seems to think it will add new ending options. I haven't found the original leak from last February, I just saw people talking about it in discussions about today's teaser on Reddit.
