Yes but that same purchase will run on current gen consoles also.

The steel case is valued at $9.99, so technically you’re buying the game for $0.01.

Hells yes.

Huh, I should’ve waited. I paid $30 for the steel case version.

I selected to have the game shipped to me, but apparently you have to physically walk into a Best Buy store to get the steelcase. So I’m debating if it’s worth the drive.

I haven’t been to a Best Buy since the pandemic started, but they said they have curbside pickup, so I went for it.

I mean at that price it is a steel.

Uggh. Sorry.

It was apparently a heroic effort to increase the minimap zoom level on the last generation consoles, because of memory limits. That’s why they made such a big deal out of it.

Once they get it somewhat bug free, they really should just pivot to an ‘Enhanced Edition’ like the Witcher and leave last gen consoles behind. They can’t keep developing if every tiny tweak is a herculean task.

Yeah; I honestly wonder how much of the struggles and delays stem from having to engineer for older platforms. I totally get the desire to sell to as many people as possible, but perhaps it was an overreach for a game like this.

Patch is live.

I mean,

IF $newconsole THEN enableMinimapScale
ELSE eatAdick

Also, a 34GB update? I have a very fast connection and no bandwidth limit so I don’t actually care, but do they not do delta patches or what?

Well, I mean they had to replace all those dildos with something.

That free DLC sounds pretty amazing.

The 1.3 patch delivers the following free DLCs:

  • Johnny Silverhand’s Alternative Appearance – can be enabled in Settings in the “Additional Content” tab.
  • Multilayered Syn-Leather Deltajock Jacket, Luminescent Punk Jacket - both available in the stash in V’s apartment after receiving a message from Viktor after completing The Ride. They’re of Rare/Iconic quality by default, Crafting Specs to craft a higher quality will also be unlocked.
  • Archer Quartz “Bandit” - available as a reward or for purchase (depending on choices made by player) after completing Ghost Town and then receiving a message from Dakota or Rogue. If you haven’t received the message, make sure to be in the Badlands area and move further away from Dakota’s workshop. Dakota will also need a couple of days to contact you.

Greetings! Another master of sarkasmós!

These patch notes look awesome. I found this buried in there:

A new type of dialogue response is now available in conversations; Sarkasmos, represented by a new purple icon. While this type has no impact on the story, it does help the player not notice his junk is still coming out of his pants.

Downloading now, hope they fixed that bug :)

What’s the point of the new jackets since you can’t see your V wearing them?

Is that a sex reference? You filthzoid!

Yeah, no third-person view bites. The teasers and stuff made it look like there’d be some, IIRC. Or were those just supposed to be cutscenes?

You can get a third-person view by getting on a motorcycle and selecting that option while driving.

Originally, CDPR planned to go into third-person for cutscenes, but that was scrapped.

If you use a bike then you’ll see your character in third person a little bit. But then you can’t use the new car, so it seems they thought of everything!!!
