Playing it right now on my Xbox Series X

I have just watched the first 20 minutes of CP and it looks amazing. Graphics are superb and story line is gripping. The first person shooting mechanics look great as does the driving. I may have to invest and find time to play this.
 
Been playing for 5 hours now and here's my impressions on Cyberpunk. No spoilers.

The graphics are truly outstanding. Night City looks amazing(Playing the Corpo path so not been to the Wildlands yet). It actually looks better at night with the neon lights. The attention to detail is off the charts. Night City is a living breathing world. The characters facial expressions are the best I've ever seen. They put games like Fallout and the elder Scrolls to shame and the animations are fantastic.

I'm playing on a Xbox Series X in performance mode so it's running 60fps at 1080-1440P and I've had NO issues at all. I've seen one bug in 5 hours and that was a gun floating in the air after I killed someone.

Voice acting is brilliant and it really gets you invested into the story and choices absolutely matter. The dialogue options are crazy. I've never seen so many choices and they all change the game. I did a mission twice using different dialogue options and the mission panned out wildly different depending on my dialogue choice.

This is a full on RPG. It's not GTA in the future. The skill tress are massive and there's so many mechanics I've still not got my head round it. You'll be doing a Lot of reading. There's lore shards all over the place and it's really worth reading it(or having some knowledge of cyberpunk). You'll also be talking a lot to different characters I've only been involved in 2 big firefights in 5 hours and just can't go on a rampage as the police will just kill you instantly.

Gun play is very good. Each weapon feels different and has weight to them.

This is an extremely mature game very very dark themes and yes you can adjust your bits and bods!!

Only completed 3 main missions and 4 side missions and my mission log is already big. There is a ridiculous amount to do. Only been in 3 districts of Night City as well.

Just taking my time with it but I have a feeling I'm going to get absolutely lost in this game

Is it multiplayer or single?

Wow sounds brilliant, really looking forward to getting my hands on a ps5 soon and this will be my first purchase.

Not a good start. Taken me three attempts to launch the game, crashed twice on the CDPR splash screen.... Sign of things to come?

Keep us updated, mate.

I was going to pre-order but decided to wait as I only have a 2018 PS4 and I am reading/hearing some concerning things about how it runs on old gen consoles, even with the day one patch.

It was also slightly concerning that CDPR didn’t provide PS4 code to reviewers pre-launch and only allowed pre-approved, pre-recorded in-game video to be used for the PC version reviews before release time. I know most of those, even with high end gaming PCs, said it was incredibly buggy, at times game-breakingly so, and many were concerned about how it would run on the consoles with old hardware (especially those that may already have cooling issues due to the thermal paste on the GPU being long dead).

It sounds like it could be an amazing game (I have played every Deus Ex and Fallout game made and loved most of them) but it may not be truly that until 3 months after release when the bugs are well and truly squashed and those of us choosing not to (or that cannot) upgrade to next gen just yet can play it without setting our home ablaze.

Of course, those with next gen can probably churn through the bugs (and save reloads to overcome the game-breaking ones), just enjoying how beautiful the game is.
 
Does anyone have problems with DX12 crashing games? Only have trouble with Metro Exodus upto yet. I've got all the updates. I've also turned cloud saves of as this was an issue

All good here, only have metro 33 to try and replicate so probably not good comparison.
