introduction
The game launched earlier this week, let this thread be the hub for all updates interesting stuff we find
fixes and graphics optimizations
Is there a cyberpunk launch thread?
One of my friends who was running a ryzen cpu applied the change and reported a noticeable performance improvement

So eh… They have hard set the PC to use the Consoles Memory sizes.
Go to [Install Location]/engine/config/memory_pool_budgets.csv and edit it with note pad to you full GPU VRAM and half the System ram is recommended, but feel free to play with it.
[CyberPunk 2077 Memfix]
Supposed to boost up to 60% performance and load times are near instant now.
Similar to @trickkynickk there is also an unofficial patch for Cyberpunk’s SMT issue:
@Zibob I’ve stumbled over those file(s) as well, but I didn’t play around with them yet. Which of those values did you change? Do we know what they do? My game has no issues allocating roughly 8-9GB VRAM.
To clear something up about the SMT ‘issue’

And yes the game DOES suffer SMT resource contention problems on AMD processors which may or may not be patched in future.
Besides the placebo improvement from seeing more thread load the game performance barely changes, but you do get a chance for more resource load stalls and thread sync issues.
A german games magazine tested the Ryzen fix on a 3600X woth a 2070 Super and noticed the following FPS increases:
Medium:
1080p --> 22%
1440p --> 12%
2160p --> 6%
Ultra:
1080p --> 11%
1440p --> 0%
2160p --> 0%
They also tested the threadpool thingy but didn’t notice any change in performance.
This is also interesting:
Here we can see more hidden settings:
Edit: Changed link
The first link to the AMD Ryzen Multi-treading fix is the nexus mod that incorporates the CPU&GPU pool size fix from the two reddit threads.

Looks like the mod author incorporated other fixes into the original AMD SMT fix. No need to bother with the reddit links, I just posted those to give credit to the people that found fixes.
I have had a look at the dumped ini file and one interesting thing I discovered was the following lines:
[RayTracing/BottomLevelCache]
Budget = 209715200 // 200MiB
EvictAgeLimit = 10
I figured I might as well bump it up like so:
[RayTracing/BottomLevelCache]
Budget = 629145600 // 600MiB
EvictAgeLimit = 20
I don’t know if this will change or improve anything. Maybe I will look at my VRAM consumption and then bump it up even more to see what happens, e.g.:
[RayTracing/BottomLevelCache]
Budget = 3221225472 // 3GiB
EvictAgeLimit = 60
Edit: Should stuff like this be in a dedicated thread or should I post the outcome here?
These entries could also be of interest:
[ResourceBank]
GameResourceCacheExpirySeconds = 20
[ResourceLoaderThrottler]
DedicatedDecompressionMemoryBytes = 1048576
FloodMinNonLoadingThreads = 2
StreamMaxLoadingThreads = 2
TrickleMaxLoadingThreads = 1
[World/Streaming/PersistencyCache]
MaxEntriesPerPage = 8
PoolBudgetKB = 4096
Bumping them up could also help
older threads + discussions
If you want to look at past history, here’s some older threads
i’ll just drop this here…
updated trailer. “game engine footage”
has anyone heard anymore news regarding :
i am hoping... no dreaming, that this will live up to it... if anyone knows anything please share.... need another dues ex esque game :D website:

So I guess F for everyone who took vacation days for the release because they thought the date had to be final at some point.
I understand the need to test and I have nothing against delays in general, but 3 weeks notice for a hyped game like this is getting ridiculous.
To be clear about it: I’m not mad about the delay, I’m mad that they made a whole big deal out of it being gold and basically telling the customers that the date is final, and then decide on a 3 weeks notice that it isn’t.

I find it odd that I have yet to experience that many major bugs.
Biggest one I’ve encountered was one where something in a BD didn’t actually “manifest” for me to scan, and was solved by simply reloading the last save which occurred at the beginning of the BD.
Beyond that, the game runs smooth as butter for me at 1080p with everything turned up to full blast. Am I the only one who remembered to update their GPU drivers and verify the integrity of their game install before playing?
Absolutely loving the game.

I wonder if there are any fallout related ones seeing as 2077 is a shared date.

This game wasn’t ready. Having to run the game in 1280X 720 just so I don’t drop into the 40 fps range when driving around on a 2700X.
I simply don’t understand why it’s so CPU heavy when it has like zero simulations. Traffic and AI are dim as Fuck. They all vanish as soon as shots are fired. At least in GTA you see the Peds react and attempt to run away. They just faze out like that fat kid meme.

For your problem for some reason the game default ignores SMT on AMD CPUs so that might be part of the problem.
But what GPU are you using and general settings level.

That’d be interesting.
I’m still floored to have found GLADOS . I was legit taken aback by it. It was entirely unexpected.

I know you can also fine Hideo Kojima hanging out in a club somewhere.
I need to buy this game at this point, I know too much to not be playing it but not enough to know about actually playing it.
It’s been a blast so far, in my experience.
I’m going to be a little disappointed if I don’t at some point pass a bleach blonde haired black man wearing a red shirt and suspenders saying “Damn, I’m possessed!”.
They could do so many easter eggs in this game.

No problem, Happy to be able to help people fix someone elses games…
Seriously… No, actually I wont even start.

I haven’t had any, but at the same time I hate the thought that I’ve been playing the game in a limited capacity.
My real problem is an audio bug, but that’s a problem with my PC and not the game. It happens in just about any game. No idea what is causing it.

Not many bugs on my end either, but tons of crashes and game hangs…
^on the Xbox One version.
Well first of all graphics (and therefore resolution) is on the GPU (duh) and so the 2700X is not all that relevant and secondly you’re the first I hear this of, so I’d suspect something on your end…

I’ve had one hang in all the time I’ve been playing it. Not sure if it was the games fault or just me going AFK for like an hour and leaving the game paused.
Seen a few issues with my friend playing, no game breaking but its a fucking joke if you ask me.
