In multiplayer, game crashes all the time. Unplayable. Tried fixes posted on the internet. Bought to play with friends.

Played in coop through the campaign. Buggy mess (stuck in walls, hud disappears, crashes). All quests include padding running over the same area over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

This game deserve a thumb up. The aesthetic is pretty. They nailed the cyberpunk feeling. Good action. But, the optimisation of the game is pretty bad and the game crash every 20 or 30 minutes for me. Because this is an auto-save, I can lose pretty much 20 minutes of gameplay.

This game looked a lot cooler than it played. The combat is meh, there is waaaay too much walking and the story is bearable if you hold down the skip button.

Very buggy game. Sudden crashes, significant FPS drops requiring restarting the game, "Trading places" quest from the main line is bugged so that progressing is impossible.

I thought this Cyberpunk game was original. Reminds me of a game from a distant era called Syndicate, a classic game from 1993.[b] ( Developed by Bullfrog Productions ) -Graphics very good -Intense firefight - Flexible skill system -Varied enemies - Good story -Co-op Can be acquired very cheaply 2-5 Euro. Try it if you like Sci-Fi. [b]It's a Blast !

It's not a bad game. I played it before on my Xbox, and I really enjoyed it. Bought it on sale, and despite how much I enjoy the game, I'd still say to get it on sale when you get the chance. Haven't tried the multiplayer yet, so I'm not sure how well it holds up.

played through the game on xbox, looks alot cleaner on pc, but still a good time..good story also.

I really enjoy the Cyberpunk vibes, gear, gunplay; All of that. I just wish I could enjoy it without watching my hardware give a final "thumbs up" like "The Terminator" while it's being lowered into molten liquid. This game perfectly emulates what it's like to be a happy squirrel. Life is great! There's morning dew on the ground, vibrant colors all around, and a big beautiful world to explore. You happily survey your surroundings, discovering new territories that other places just can't bring you. You find even more wondrous things... Everything feels absolutely great. You have your whole life in front of yo----- BAM! You just got ran over by a f***ing 13 year old Prius. 13 years old, like the team who must be responsible for fixing all of the game breaking bugs on this project. I'd pay another $20 for a DLC that just stops this game from turning your $2500 machine into a fire hazard.
