Reviews warn Cyberpunk 2077 comes with \u201cgame-breaking\u201d bugs at launch CD Projekt RedWhile the hype for Cyberpunk 2077 has been through the roof and the game mostly delivers on the some fronts, reviewers are warning about a large amount of bugs in the PC version and it\u2019s unknown when they\u2019ll be fixed. It\u2019s safe to say that Cyberpunk 2077 is easily the single most anticipated game of 2020 and possibly of the last couple of years. Ever since its re-announcement back in 2018, the community has been eager to get their hands on the title and try out what seemed to be a huge open-world experience with an interesting aesthetic. Now, reviews for the game are out in the wild, and while most seem to agree that it mostly lives up to the hype and delivers on a few fronts, reviewers who played the pre-launch version, at least on PC, are seemingly warning that it is full of bugs in its current state. Cyberpunk 2077 bugs While Cyberpunk 2077 currently sits at a 91 on Metacritic, reviewers seem to agree that the game is full of bugs, even the ones who have given it high marks. Over at the Washington Post, Gene Park posted on Twitter that Cyberpunk 2077 is \u201ca buggy mess\u201d and that by the end of the game, it was very apparent. He even mentioned that, if you\u2019re hoping the Day 1 patch will take care of the problems, you\u2019re sorely mistaken, as the bugs \u201crun deep\u201d. I\u2019m eager to revisit Night City. I really am. There\u2019s so much I KNOW I didn\u2019t do. There\u2019s clearly game there I didn\u2019t partake in. Counting on a Day 1 patch? Good luck. The game\u2019s bugs run deep at every aspect of the experience, UI to cutscenes.https:\/\/t.co\/1H6SEWOb90 \u2014 GenePu\u0336\u0317\u0347\u0346\u0144\u0335\u0332\u0301\u035ck 2077 (@GenePark) December 7, 2020 In GameSpot\u2019s review, Kallie Plagge called the game \u201cphenomenally buggy\u201d and even mentioned that, at two separate instances towards the end of the game, it froze completely. Plagge went on to describe the number of bugs in the game as \u201cextensive\u201d. Probably one of the more scathing observations about the bugs came from YouTuber Laymen Gaming, saying that some of them were \u201csome of the worst\u201d he\u2019s \u201cever experienced in a game.\u201d He also went on to say that there are so many right now, that it\u2019s \u201cgame-breakingly\u201d bad. What\u2019s the community saying about the bugs? As one might expect, the community has generally not been reacting well to the news. Some people are, expectedly, saying it might be best to hold off on the game until the bugs are fixed. A lot of reviewers are saying the experience for Cyberpunk is hampered by bugs which means all that delaying and developer crunching really wasn\u2019t enough and the game probably shouldn\u2019t have come out this year. Everyone, please have fun playtesting Cyberpunk for me \u2014 Eli \ud83c\udf5a (@EliLikesRice) December 7, 2020 I’ve had 0 investment in the hype around Cyberpunk 2077. Seems that may benefit me, given the mixed (though mostly positive in some way) reviews. I think I’ll wait until 2021 before playing; when all the bugs are fixed and we have the Series X\/PS5 optimized versions available. \u2014 Dougie Gray (@douglasgray81) December 7, 2020 It is important to point out that the reviews out right now are only for the PC version of the game, however, if that version is this buggy, that may be a bit telling as to how less powerful hardware will handle it. Still, it\u2019s important not to jump to any conclusions until you\u2019ve played it for yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
