What we need is a sequel that properly utilizes the city locations and expands upon what this game did. I still play every day (in VR even), but i'm not clamoring for another DLC...mostly because we already know it's not happening
@ehjhey7 agreed there are really too many empty unused spaces in the map. An easy thing that could be added in an update. Would be to make Cyberpsycos spawn in Random but empty places. (So, not the sidewalk)
Night City needs real bug fixes and no more lies so they can nerf the game! Blood pump still removes itself, grenades switch themselves when receiving an upgrade. That’s just to name a couple. I have over 100 hours of recorded game play and can honestly say this game is just as broken as it was before they fixed the fun glitches
@maximumcarnage2077 i dont understand your notion and im calling it out because i have seen it a bunch of times already. Like CDPR Fuc--d up, we know that. They disappointed people, but they learned from there mis takes. They admited it even and showed us by releasing patch 2.1 packed full with content. That contant was supposed to be in Phantom L. the company did the right thing and avoided crunching their employers. Look, the game is definitely not perfect, but i think you are beating a dead horse here. And please dont act as if the company didn't lose a lot of money. They could have handled it like EA do, just cut lifesuport and let the Game D. But no, they put in the money and fixed the game.
Why? Why do so many TH-camrs insist on the hour long lead up to the actual meat of the video? Is there money to be made from the infinite intro? Asking as a 40 year old you knows nothing about TH-cam monetization
Videos need to be 10 minutes or longer to be monetized, longer video means it is pushed out more, more views means more money. Also that’s why you can just skip
Lack of experience mainly. Artificially inflating a videos runtime especially at the very beginning is a terrible idea, since the average viewer decides whether they will watch a video within less than 15 seconds. Good scripts will make a promise and partially deliver upon it before those 15 seconds are up. The failure of this video to do that either means the script has 0 though put into it, or is actively disrespectful of you time.
@@phobiahavoc I will say, my first ever playthrough was a melee/pistols build with Reflexes at 20, body 20, technical ability 20, cool at 15 and intel at 5. I managed to just melt with my overclocked electric mantis blades. Did the King of Wands ending for PL, then went on to do the secret path and solo Arasaka tower for the Sun ending. I was auto healing faster than most things could damage me.
@@henryviiifake8244 I’m not sure of that, I was already max level when I bothered to try to get it. Though, if you just want to be OP, the Order shotgun (iconic Satara from Dogtown Stadium vendor) is extremely strong. Especially if you spec into bolt in the tech tree.
It would be interesting to see how the build performs against Adam Smasher version 2.1. For mowing through hordes of normal enemies (humans with 1, 2 or 3 bars of health), the ultimate weapon is the Pozhar XMOD2 with a Kneel! and Firecracker in it. It's so good that it doesn't require any additional perks or cyberware to be overwhelming. I used that extensively on my last Don't Fear the Reaper run on very hard. It doesn't do much against mechanical enemies or bosses, so it's less well-rounded than the Quasar, however.
@@phobiahavoc , Like almost all of the XMOD2s, the Pozhar is found in Dogtown. It's a shotgun (similar to a Crusher, so it has a clip and is quick to reload), but as an XMOD2, it's an iconic with two Mod slots ... and the Mods can be changed.
Only thing you didn't account for when testing other weapons is ability specific traits, sharpshooter with ARS and such allow guns to exceed the capabilities shown. Just like with the amount of damage shown by the Quasar, other weapons increase damage based on skills.
You need to use the other weapons with builds that are based around them, the same way you’re doing with the Quasar. Because that’s an extremely unfair advantage to have 40 perks that help with that one gun, and maybe 4 that can help with the others.
You definitely gave the quasar an unfair advantage in this testing. 5:58 proves it 🤣🤣🤣 take those perks away and try it again. Better yet, remove Wall puncher as well and put the field test to someone with better aim.
I've got a headshot focused gunslinger build with a sandy that's very powerful. Using Her Majesty i can one shot anyone without being detected and have inadvertantly become unbelievable at stealth. My 20 body and tech let's me get through just about any barrier and i can take out all the cameras and people before my sandy runs out (85sec) My other favorite is a power pistol that can one shot boss characters (one shot any cyberpsycho and one shot all bosses). Despite being built around headshots i have over 450+ health, 50% over my cyberware limit so i get fury. AND i have better mitigation at close range allowing me to switch into my shotgun where i get all the 20 body perks lined up to one shot kill people.
I'm actually trying to build a T-800 build ( there are multiple versions of the Terminator build, but not any aimed specifically at the T-800 ) and your cyberware build is very interesting. I'm already getting ideas from it
For a bit of a higher skill variant, a Burya with wall puncher has .25 second charge time. Quick scoping basically always fires bolt shots.... only 4 shots max, but it can often be more than needed to down a whole group. You need to hit your shots though. Luckily bolt shots are very forgiving aim wise
Not bad. But, myself, I prefer Netrunning builds. I use roughly the same build without the cool. Body, tech, Int, and reflex. Air dash and net running feel like the magic system in this game and giving it up, I feel you lose a lot of what makes combat special in this game.
Yinglong and erebus with the machine gun fun perk is unstoppable with tetratonic rippler mk5, biomonitor and overclock you can air dash and jump around smasher like a crack addict spamming cyberware malfunction and never having to reload by swapping between both SMGs
Pretty much any Tech weapon will be super strong with this setup. I like Chrome Compressor and this style of play but on Very Hard you have to deal with a handful of enemies that will just dodge all your shots and if you don’t have a good melee (or quickhack) back-up, they are very irritating. Not too many of them, but they’re there.
I’ve got something better: Problem Solver + Reflexes 20(entire SMG tree) + Buzzsaw + Kiroshi Cockatrice optics + 20 Cool(with no Cool perks) + 20 Tech for cyberware perks + Apogee Sandevistan, legendary Ballistic Coprocessor, and Reflexes-attuned cyberware. Guaranteed crits for buffed crit damage, just shoot the floor in front of enemies and they’ll be chopped like Swiss cheese. Shreds Adam Smasher too. Just swap between SMGs to fit the situation & utilize Submachine Fun’s buffs.
idk... my melee build facetanks em and kills the entire squad in 3 seconds instead 3 minutes (which is the time u probably needed to kill maxtec) and thers a ton of videos online where ppl doing what i do... or netrunners that kill maxtec completely before they even touch the ground. i mean im glad you enjoy ur build ^^ but if u really think its the best performing... i can say its defnetly not.
did you try this build from the last video I told you about? I called it The Pride Of Death. if not here it is again: I put 20 points into Body, Tech and Cool. I put 18 points into Reflexes. The Pride With XC-10 Silencer and Kanegestu Scope because they both have best stealth bonuses Widowmaker The MA70 HB X-mod 2 with Firecracker mod Apogee Sandy Quantum Tuner Cockatrice Optics Universal Booster Epimorphic Skeleton Rava Avis Microgenerator Deep Field Visual Interface Tyrosine Injector Biomonitor Blood Pump Second Heart Chitin Fortified Ankles
Can't use the weapon mods on that one that I'm aware of, so no using the chimera core attachment for example. It's still an ok gun, but the attachments to the Quasar are what send it over the top.
@muratkara1403 There are a few things it could be. I had everything at tier 5++ in this video, which does make a difference. Also, I think I had about 100 (give or take) armor from clothing in this video. If it isn't those two, I'm not sure what the reason would be for the difference.
@@PxNxWxGxW just copied that build and it absolutely shreds, like on the video. I'm 55lv on very hard. But this weapon charging sometime does not work and you need to press rmb again, which is mega annoying...
CDPR should nerf that build, like they nerfed my favourite build, so much investment I put in my ,once favourite Hacking build and now, it is worth less. CDPR that intent of pushing you into car combat and a mind numbing run and gun build, has taken away why Cyberpunk was so special and enjoyable to me.

Engagement metrics. Time watched is huge for them
From 4-5 playthroughs experiense . Melee builds are on whole different level in compare to anything else. They just seems immortal.
I could never find one I really liked tbh. At least not in 2.0 and after. But I'll have to give melee another shot at some point

I'll be honest, I don't think I've ever heard of the Pozhar before. I'll have to check it out. It might make the perfect third weapon for this build.
@@phobiahavoc ,
Like almost all of the XMOD2s, the Pozhar is found in Dogtown. It's a shotgun (similar to a Crusher, so it has a clip and is quick to reload), but as an XMOD2, it's an iconic with two Mod slots ... and the Mods can be changed.
Pozhar is one of the automatic shotguns. There’s an xmod2 version in Dogtown that you can only find between 4-5 am from a secret area.
If there is a online mod like in gta this game would a all time banger. Just imagine Cyberpunk RP

Do you have to be a certain level to find that? I'm level 11 and went to the shop and the crafting spec wasn't there... =(
