    I long for the day developers no longer feel the need to spend time making junk items that clutter areas and waste your time picking them up then take up space in your inventory until you can convert them to real monies. Just such an unnecessary addition to any game—feels like we're incrementally improving, with how most of them have a "sell all junk" button, but man, just get rid of it.

    You could always just not pick up everything you see, including the stuff that's literally just there to provide clutter / set dressing / make the place look more real.

    *realizes entire thread is staring at him*

    ... sorry, I don't know what I was thinking.

    It is really weird that you can kill almost anyone and there are often no repercussions. I guess I mostly target gang members with bounties, but I feel like in an elder scrolls game or something you would still get guards hunting you down.

    The tons of items in here makes sense though: they all give you materials for crafting. Like there definitely should be a "mark as junk" option but it's not like what you pick up is pointless.

    FYI, for steam dudes (and probably other launchers), you can skip the CDPR launcher by adding
    --launcher-skip
    
    to your launch options.

    and this sig. and this twitch stream.

    Anyone playing this on base ps4? It seems like a dumpster fire that shouldn't have been released from what I've seen online, but I'm happy to be told otherwise.

    I'm playing and yeah. Resolution is butts and a lot of pop-in, also constant frame rate dips.

    It reminds me a lot of playing Morrowind on the original Xbox.

    At least you haven't run into any cliff racers.

    I run:
    i5 - 6600 3.3Ghz
    16GB memory
    RTX 3070 FE

    Would it be straining? Not looking for Ultra, but seems like a hefty game!

    Should have no problem.

    I've got
    i5 - 6600 3.3Ghz

    GTX 1080 TI

    Running mostly Ultra but not at 4k and with some shadows and stuff turned down.

    I remembered, suddenly, the original teaser trailer for this game. I think it's the music that triggered the memory for me.

    Oh my lord am I having fun now or what

    I said, fuck it, 60 fps it is, cranked everything up and turned on RTX Ultra + DLSS Balanced. It's a big sluggy in big populated areas but whatever. So now I'm doing the first couple story missions, Corpo background, and

    Not only did I get special conversation interaction options with the Militech corpo face, not only did I get her to pony up the money to buy her own thing that was stolen from her, but now I have the option not only to hack the datachip and remove the tracer virus, but I can make a copy of the thing too for my own use?!?

    Fuckin' fantastic.

    Edit: aww, it gave me a random thing and not the thing. But still, random things are pretty awesome. I'm not specifically trying to be HACKERMAN on this playthrough but it's very tempting.

    DF’s look at base PS4 performance. Base Xbox coming next.

    https://youtu.be/C5pHpQqhmR4

    720p-900p. But mostly 720p. Paired by slowdowns, stuttering, and the game’s FPS often running in the 20s, and sometimes 10s.

    I’m just walking down the street and find a giant gold plated hand cannon, also applies a flaming DoT.

    This thing just erases people.

    I’ve been mostly exploring, I wandered into some biz district and there was just an all out war. I guess everything didn’t scaled, they wiped me out so quick.

    This game is exactly what I’ve wanted for so very long. It’s living up to the hype for myself. It’s going to be another long night.

    Can someone show me how the hell you're supposed to hack? I don't understand the minigame yet and the tutorial was less than helpful (it should give you one where it doesn't tell you exactly what to hit).

    Basically you need to hit the numbers in sequence, so don't just click any number though, find one in the same column as the next number in the sequence. I'm dyslexic when it comes to numbers so it's tough for me, gotta take it slow.

    as far as I undestand, your 100% goal is to finish all sequences-
    let's say you have a 2 sequence and a 3 sequence, for two different goals. you can finish those after each other and get both goals
    Sometimes, the goals have overlapping sequences, that makes it easier
    I'm not 100% certain on what row or column you get after you click one row or collumn, but intuitively I'm somehow managing.

    The highlighted rows/columns always switch between horizontal and vertical, so you need to kind of think a few steps ahead.

    Selecting a hex number from the grid toggles your selection from horizontal to vertical. You have to get the correct sequence of characters by planning them out based on that pattern. You'll see multiple starting points, or none at all. If you had a sequence of 55 1D 9A you might go through a grid like "I have two 55s in this row. The second 55 has a 1D in that column so I'll pick that one. 9A is also in the same row as 1D so I'll complete the pattern there."

    You don't have to start with the correct choice, but picking a wrong one will put you back at the beginning.

    Yeah if you take really good character creators from other games, both recent and older, the one here really doesn't rate at all. The end result you can get looks nice because it's a nice looking game, but they way they let you pick the options is so poor it's hard to get the exact result you want out of it.

    And getting the result you want is the most important part of a character creator.

    If it was a matter of resources that the creator be a bit shit because work had to go elsewhere, then I'm (just) ok with it

    The good news is that it can be reasonably fixed with just a bigger breadth of options, possibly from the DLCs, but yeah it's not going to rival a TES or Dark Souls creator (Or hell, Monster Hunter or Nioh 2)

    This is CDPR. They could have put resources anywhere they wanted to for this game. My gut feeling for years now has been that they let scope creep get away from them and then didn't have time to finish nearly anything they wanted to cram into the game. Hence the crunch and delays, and then this buggy mess we have at release for them to continue working on.

    Yeah I guess they could have done even more crunch time

    Or they could have had good management and a good plan and taken their employees' well-being into account, having sensible work hours or hiring more people.

    On controller you do it by holding Y, going to grenade, and then using the d-pad to switch grenade type.
