Sony pulls bug-ridden Cyberpunk 2077 from the PlayStation Store

Post by Pigeon » Sun Dec 27, 2020 8:08 pm

Sony has pulled Cyberpunk 2077, the most anticipated game of the year, from its PlayStation Store and is offering refunds to customers.

The game, created by Polish developer CD Projekt Red, has been widely panned since its release on December 10, with users reporting bugs and crashing, particularly on older gaming consoles. CD Projekt Red had already offered to refund customers who were not satisfied.

Everyone should code. lol.

Sometimes failure, despite the hype and BS marketing, surfaces.

Next twist

Patch 1.1 has fixed many of the issues that players were experiencing, including progression issues in certain missions, but has since introduced another progression related bug. As reported in Forbes, when Takamura calls you in the "Down the street" mission, you will get stuck and he won't say anything.

Without the dialogue, you will be left without a way to progress in the mission. Unfortunately, restarting the game from that point won't fix the issue. Even if you reload a save that was, say, 20 minutes before that point, the bug will still be there. To address the problem CDPR has come up with the following solution:

1 Load an older save file before Takamura and V leave Wakako’s office.
2 V must finish the conversation with Takamura outside the office right away.
3 Right after the conversation and updated quest progression, skip 23 hours.
4 This should trigger the holocall and the correct conversation.

Following those steps should trigger the right conversation and allow you to continue with the game. While this may seem like another major issue for the game, it should still be mentioned that the 1.1 patch has fixed 13 of these same kinds of bugs. When compared to what it was, the 1.1 patch is a resounding success, even if it did introduce another game-breaking glitch.

Less breakage = win.
