Massive Cyberpunk 2077 1.2 Update Fixes Tons of Bugs, Adds Raytracing for AMD

[Athlonite]

If you look at transistor count and maybe die size, and i know it's Samsung vs TSMC, but, there is no deal in having a cheaper Amd card compared to Nvidia.
Thinking was Amd is the underdog and has to undercut Nvidia every time to sell anything but it's not the case anymore since Nvidia puts more transistors on the chip separately for ray tracing and DLSS.
So AMD went a bit better on rasterization and pretends ray tracing is not such a big deal and charges a bit lower than Nvidia but with much lower R&D costs and lower manufacturing costs.

And in CP2077 RT isn't a big deal I hardly noticed a difference with it on vs off so I'm happy to just leave it off

Soo, it's been patched a while ,where is it at, can I play it yet ?

Yeah it's playable but still missing a butt ton of content which hopefully will start to make an appearance when the DLC's are dropped

30/55GB for an incremental patch (1.1x --> 1.2) which adds no* features but bugfixes.
(https://semver.org/ I could add more links for those who have never versioned anything, but if you need them you're out of the versioning discussion)

This is a recompiled version of a half baked game oriented to the financial stakeholders.

Why are you still eating their poo?

You’re right. No game developers should ever fix their games, and players should never want fixes. Sure, one could argue that all games should release 100% error free, but that will never happen with any product on the planet.

All of this kind of reminds me of Fallout New Vega's release.

I wonder how game industry in consoles and PCs survived without internet for 40 years. all those marios, finalfantasies, lucasarts games, etc. 0 parches. can you imagine?

Anyway, that wasn't my point in the first place...

Oof, and were seeing the massive disparity in RT performance here too with rx6000 cards almost half as fast as Ampere... Not worth enabling whatsoever, especially without DLSS or a suitable alternative. The hardware might be RT capable but certainly is at a massive disadvantage in real world (gaming) scenarios.

Adam Kiciński made this statement recently:

"I don’t see an option to shelve Cyberpunk 2077," Kiciński said. "We are convinced that we can bring the game to such a state that we can be proud of it and therefore successfully sell it for years to come."

More like we smelled lots of money and copied what Rockstar did with GTA V, we want years of selling the same game, and we care about gamers, yeah.

And the gig many ways to skin a cat is still broken on my first playthrough, which means I'm going to need to start a new playthrough if I want to unlock the watson achievement, and I was hoping to upgrade my GPU before replaying this game.

That wasn't my thinking at all I like AMD and I don't like nVidia simple as that and I didn't have $1500+ bucks to spare for the XT model so non xt and a wee OC and it plays fine without RT on but in this game RT doesn't make a whole lot of difference to the visuals of the game well atleast not that I've noticed
