It was an all-round pretty terrible and video-gamey plan. The only thing that changes if the heists "succeeds" is Evelyn and your crew all get murdered by Netwatch tying up loose ends

I've been using my vehicle trunk stashes a lot on PC and they are linked to my apartment and each other. Personally, I never had anything go missing or any problems with it.

Bug questions regarding bossfight in mission 'Play It Safe' - Is this bugged? I've beat Oda multiple times, want to let him life, do the dialogue with Takemura, then Oda just takes 800 damage out of nowhere, his head sparks, and he dies. I'm not aware of anything that may be cause AoE damage, and I'm beating him with a revolver with the non-lethal mod - not sure what I'm doing wrong. edit -realized my 'non-lethal gun' had some sort of DoT effect on it that may have been the culprit. Switched to some trash common with zero DOTs for the final 10% and he didn't die, in case anyone else has the same problem. Dramatika fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Dec 31, 2020 |

WarpedLichen posted:Are vehicle stashes actually linked? As far as I can tell they don't get tied to your apartment stash so I was afraid every single vehicle had its own stash or something. Not afaik. I know the stashes at Panam's encampment, and presumedly Judys apt (I never went back but the game said I could live there now)are not linked to the one at your own apt, which is just mind bogglingly stupid.

Crossposting from another videogame thread. I shot Fingers and obviously got the cops on me. I tried outrunning them but a couple netrunners started hacking me so I blasted them through the wall with my Quasar, which pissed the cops off even more. Running trying to find some way to escape I came up to the joytoy nearby his office, triggered the custcene, and got the heat off me. GOTY. Also, I swear honey, I'm only watching a CGI sex scene because I was trying not to die, why are you looking at me like that? Found the Comrade's Hammer blueprint last night and it's crazy good. Headshot damage of 4500 when most of my guns are doing like 800 on headshots, goes through like two walls, this thing is going to thoroughly gently caress over any netrunners hacking through a camera I didn't spot.

Literally the only way for V to "win" would have been to refuse to take the mission in the first place. Every possible outcome after that is just various flavors of hosed.

The best play I could think of in V's shoes on the heist is: Convincing Dex to cut Evelyn out, since Dex has a much better chance to be able to move merch that spicy Makes me wonder how Evelyn convinced Dex the first place My impression from the other gigs and side quests in the game is that Fixers have money in hand from the client to start with. Maybe they don't in some cases if the client has a really good rep? But Evelyn doesn't seem to have money or rep at all. Dex must not have any network left in Night City at all if no one could tell him that "ah yeah Evelyn is a random former Mox member, shes been a sexdoll at Clouds for years." Evenlyn did SUCH a good job of bluffing Dex that he shells out $10k of HIS OWN money to buy the flathead just for this mission! Speech level 100 ig

veni veni veni posted:Someone correct me if I am wrong, but it appears that every song in the game was written for the game. I don't think I have ever seen a game that has an entire soundtrack composed by different contemporary artists that wasn't just licensed music. There even seems to be songs that reference Night City or the game directly in some way. Which is really drat cool. My favorite is 'Friday Night Firefight' which is a reference to what CP2020 calls its combat section.

I guess it's great that somebody somewhere told me that double-tapping Draw Weapon will holster the weapon without opening the menu wheel, but I wish I had found out before Street Cred 50 was so far in the rear-view mirror.

So what's the reasoning behind (act 1) Jackie's funeral not being available if you send him to the ripperdoc? I sent him to his mom in my game so I got the funeral as normal, but if you sent him to (I'm assuming) Viktor, does his body just get scooped up by scavs or something?

Talk to Viktor about it to find out. Specifically : Arasaka goons took it.

Old Kentucky Shark posted:It's never explicitly spelled out, but the game pretty much hits you over the head with the fact that Dex is a washed out gently caress up of a Fixer. Every time you drop his name in Act 1, people are like "Dex? Really? I thought he was dead." I assume that he was desperate enough to get back in the game with a big heist that he was willing to work with Evelyn for a split of the take instead of cash up front. Jackie sure loves him for some reason (thanks Jackie)

does anyone know if they've figured out how to add specific perks via console or cheatengine? considering starting up my second playthrough soon and would like to give myself the perks to craft higher rarity things without going into tech at all.

There's also a lot of little hidden bits and bobs you can find on the roofs of some buildings. I found a journalist who killed himself jumping from another taller building. I stole his legendary pants. It also opens up a lot of ways to get around on missions. There's a lot of mission buildings that have ways to get in on the roof if you don't have the strength or Tech to get into the back door.

Yeah, same, being able to get up on roofs makes it a lot easier to start firefights from an angle the enemies have trouble handling. Especially since I abuse the hell out of tech weapons on this run, start a fight by breach protocol, then contagion, then dome someone through a wall. Although on my next run I'm going full Ghostrunner so I'll be able to pry open anything.

Judging by the starter fixer missions and the monotage, i don't think it is any secret that at the start V and Jackie are small time gently caress ups, that basically just make enough so V can have a lovely apartment and a cheap used car. So to them Dex is Mr. Big, and he knows it.

I read the codex entry for V's car, it's 50 years old, some time in the 2020s, the company that made it made it so reliable and easy to work on that they went out of business.

veni veni veni posted:I'm the opposite. I'll always prefer to have a custom character in any sort of long, open world game or RPG. V not being a blank slate (i.e having a bit of their own personality and being fully voiced), but also being blank enough that it's still my character is absolutely my ideal. Playing as Geralt was one of my bigger hurdles in TW3. And I even like Geralt and understand that it's based on a book series, so there wasn't much wiggle room there. But I just don't want to play some game where I'm customizing everything from stats to appearance for 100 hours and be locked into a set protagonist. I just find it way harder to be invested in than if it's a character I got to create myself. "Voiced protagonist with personality wiggle room" is my flavor of choice as well. V and Commander Shepard both fit into that quite nicely for me.

Especially if you're corpo background, V has the opportunity to challenge Evelyn a lot in her planning and poke holes in it. The story is told from V's naive perspective and V is egged on by Jackie (who is not the most savvy character) which is why V goes along with it. Aside from the heist itself, even if it were successful, the aftermath would have been just as bad for everyone involved.

But its more like a Guy Ritchie movie script directed and produced by Christopher Nolan where its all gritty and dark and serious lol . I think the game could have been a little more fun and lighthearted but worked more or less as intended if they rewrote Act 1 so that Jackie leaves the biochip in his head, but survives in a coma, and the rest of the game is you trying to do the exact same poo poo trying to save your dear friend. Also Jackie can still talk to you on the holo, but Johnny is in his head so him and Johnny are constantly arguing and pushing each out other out of frame on the holo call
