The commentator also accused Sony of “making a business complaint to the CDPR about the issues.”
Sony is said to be returning 2077 cyberbank players who were dissatisfied with the game’s performance on the PS4 beyond the usual two-hour game time limit.
A quick look at the hashtag “Cyberbug 2077” highlights the performance issues and malfunctions experienced by players, but basic PS4 users, in particular, seem to have been the hardest hit, discussing PS4 and “exceptionally poor performance” on Digital Foundry’s Xbox One.
“I had to file a support request online and had to stop for over an hour to talk to someone, however they were quick to withdraw the money and then remove the game from my library,” a player at Reddit revealed (thanks, VGC).
The post also accused Sony of “making a business complaint to CDPR about the issues,” but at the time of writing, did not confirm this claim.
“Spent an hour on the phone after the chatbot refused, and I got my money back!” Added another player. “Call u / SirPanic12 for advice on noting a game crash and not being able to make further progress. This is all I have to say.”
Not everyone is so lucky. While some withdrawals may seem safe, others are denied. OP then removed the game they had already removed from the PS4, deleted their stored data and returned to the thread to confirm that “customer service was handled in a quiet professional manner”.
As Wes announced yesterday, CD Project shares fell this week, with reviews of the game suggesting that cyberbanking may not end with the highest metascore in the sky. Although the PC version of Cyberbank has a 90 metascore over Metacritic, the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions, which have been heavily criticized for performance issues, do not have a metascore. The PS4 version has a user score of 2.7, while the Xbox One version has a user score of 3.5.
CD Project employers have told employees that they will receive their full bonus in defiance of the non-standard introduction of Cyberbunk 2077. The release states that executives are responsible for the state of the game.
CD Project has been on fire for exploiting its crisis during the development of cyberbanking. In September 2020, CD Project told employees to work six days a week until the November release of the game (then it was delayed until December), in defiance of an earlier promise not to force compulsory overtime to complete the project.
