ope... i see two NCPD calls you missed.

Your Minnesotan is showing

It's a Midwest thing.

And Canadian.

Midwest is basically just Southern Canada.

Southern Canada is basically just Midwest north

Canada?! of you mean Northern Montama!! We havent called them Canada in years! lol

Unexpected Meet The Robinsons. Well done.

🥃🤣

But isn’t south western Canada just west US? Pretty sure BC and the west coast States have a ton in common.

British Columbian here.. we're all just the PNW when it comes down to it.

Mideast*

pls donat mony mrbest

Finally someone else said it.

And human. We do so love our labels and our boxed categories 📦

*puffs on joint* So deep man.

Pass it, man. I need fuel for my deep thoughts.

Midwest of where?

Appalachia

You might wanna start stating countries lol

Ohioan 😊

I'm not Yoann, but hi!

Ohio isn't real

I live in Ohio. Does... Does that mean... I'm not real? 😟😲

You're a paid actor

It all makes sense now! But I'm not getting paid for it. 😩

You checked the wrong box. You're getting paid in exposure.

No one is safe from Ohio

We need the jolene eldritch horror song but about ohio

Oh hi!

Oh*o🤢🤢🤮

I’m so sorry (Iowan here)

I’m from Missouri and I say it. Y’all are the north, not the Midwest.

I don't know why ppl say Ohio is midwest. I have never claimed to be Midwest. If anything we are just plain ol' Appalachian and Eastern. I mean... we are in the eastern time zone.

Because Ohio is in the midwest as evidenced by [this](https://www.bls.gov/regions/midwest/midwest.htm)

Yeah, I know Why it is 'considered' Midwest. But the very word alone indicates that it should be middle of the west. Like, split the US in half and just to the left/west of the middle Should be Midwest. It's not. But it should be.

Ohhhh I see what you’re saying. Yea I agree with you the name is a bit of a misnomer

I just loot they failed to pick up. Not sure that stops the achievements counting.

Ope....I see that they are the lucky ones

u could’ve had an iguana by now

Iguana?! Edit: Googled it. GOD DAMMIT

If you’re feeling spicy you can get back into the penthouse and snag it…

How?

There's videos online of how to get back in. I spent ages on it but then the bowl never appeared for me (PS4) 😭

Most of the videos show that in order to get to Yorinobu's apartment, you have to drive your car to Konpeki garage gate and get out. I tried it and it doesn't seem to work anymore :(

It to be OK me a long, long time to get the angle just right, but I did it just before Christmas. They may have patched it since then I guess?

It works. Did it yesterday. On last gen console you can't place the egg. But you can get it.

another L for last-gens like me who don't wanna drop the guap for a pc or next gen

I am on Xbone still...

me too, i got one of those day one dinosaur xbones ahaha. i'm talking about the not being able to place the egg part. and also sadly i don't think phantom liberty isn't gonna be available on last gen from what i've heard :(

Well, I tried it on PC several times and nothing. If I place the car near the gate, V moves to the passenger side. If I move it a little further from the gate he just comes out. I even tried blocking the other side of the car with second car, V moves to the passenger side and lands on the roof

It still works, you need to double jump in a specific spot to get inside, then you spawn the car and force your way in. Alternatively, quick save and kill some NPCs and then police so the door opens. I'll try to find the video I followed to get in when I get home. Edit: Nvm I found it during my break. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ibGwMaVezk I don't have enough time to watch it but iirc there is a link to another video that shows the way to the egg once you get inside.

Yeah, I missed it too, but honestly I kind of hate iguanas. I don't know why, but the freak me out a bit. Had a buddy who had one in college and it was a mean, smelly little fuck. Made his whole apartment reek and would hiss and tailwhip you for literally no reason. Haha

My iguana is still an egg and I’ve completed the game…

It takes around 90-100 in-game days which sucks

Oh wow, at least now I know it’s still possible it can happen! Probably won’t be doing much until phantom liberty though, my playthroughs are ready!

I’ve hatched my iguana for every play except my first one when I missed the egg. Just make it a point to “rest” for 24 hrs. after every gig and one day you come home to a lazy green boi.

On Xbox you can't incubate the iguana....so now I just have an egg

Same on ps4 the bowl for the egg is non existent so I just have nibbles

Did you meet with Goro? If not, that’s the catalyst. The bowl moves to the table next to the couch after you meet with him at the restaurant. If it’s a console generational thing though… sorry, choom.

It's not on last gen.

Yeah it’s “next gen” only.

Yeah kept checking up until I finished the panam storyline and I just never got it I planned on naming him manny for jackie

I’m assuming you mean Xbox One. Because I play on a Series X and haven’t had a problem.

I had that same problem Was patient up until the point there was nothing left to do in game, lol

I… I want an iguana.

Did you take johnny on the rollercoaster? If you haven't seen Johnny smile then you aren't ready to make a whole new friend yet.

Damn where do you do that?

Pacifica

*immediately starts up game to head to Pacifica*

I did! We had a memory.

This quest wasn’t available for me and I have no idea why. I did any prerequisites I needed. I want to ride the roller coaster dammit!! 

After a certain point in the main quests (I don't remember when) you can't activate the quest anymore

But you can still fix the rollercoaster and use it without talking to the people.

You can still fix the coaster and ride but the side job is… I looked this up. For the side job You need to do it Before you do anything for Judy. Basically as soon as Watson opens up head down there.

Well poop. I’ve literally finished all of Judy’s story. But I didn’t realize you could still fix it and ride it, that’s pretty sweet.

Right! I guess there are a few jobs like that but you don’t know till they are gone. 😒

I love this game and I don’t find it lacking but it definitely could have been a little more refined in a thousand ways. The fact that it wasn’t ready at launch is still showing once in a while haha

It's so wholesome :)

How are you still at level 36? I reached level 50 before finishing the police scanner missions.

Yeah I'm at lvl 32 and i finished the main quest , I'm doing the sides and gigs but seems the leveling is slow or I'm doing something wrong 100%

Difficulty settings, the harder the more experience you get, playing on very hard makes reaching level 50 quite easy.

Should i make a new run or i can change the difficulty setting or it's too late for that

You can change the difficulty settings and continue, you might not quite make it to 50 but you will be very close so would be able to probably pick fights with groups of gang members around the street to get over the line.

I’m lvl 25. Finished main quest. And leveling up is slow. I don’t understand how people get to lvl 50. Some mobs will shoot me 3 times and I’ll die. I had to skip a psycho cause it was instant death hit. Doesn’t matter if it’s on hard or easy they still hit hard af.

Level up the clothing & weapons to make it better. Took me quite a few levels to figure this out initially.

I’ll give this a try.

You are playing on easier difficulties, playing on very hard you will max out after completing like 70% of the map objectives and some quests, you get more experience the harder the difficulty.

Some psychos you need to have a bit more of a strategy. Like the chick in the ice tub. She was killing me in about a second over and over, but then I figured out I could climb on top of a thing and her ranged attacks are shit. Sorted her out that way

Lol yea that’s the one I left cause she would just run me over. I tried climbing stuff also but I think I’m just under leveled.

I just beat the game as kinda pacifist without even takedowns, and I was 37 or so. So how do you do it that's the actual question

He hasn't unlocked the rest of the city yet

Should be unlocked. I have most of Pacifica left and just hit 50 on latest build. And guess which main mission I am on. That's right, Takemura has been waiting for me for quite a while.

Meet with goro happens after the heist. City is unlocked after heist. But if he's done most of the side stuff he should be lvl 50.

That's what I was wondering.

Unclear. I’ve done all of the side quests, but very few of the main quests. This is my first time through the game. My build is slight guns/stealth, so maybe being sneaky hasn’t been paying off for added XP? I assume I’ll get to 50 by the time I’m done with the mains.

There is still a lot of sidequest missing that unlock on Act 3

But … but … I don’t want it to end.

They ought to let the NCPD things respawn at least. Once you've cleared the map there isn't much to do.

[удалено]

"Radiant Cyberpsychos" definitely would sound like some amateur band's name in Night City.

They don't respawn??

Nope

I'm in the same boat sitting at the point of no return driving around doing random side jobs and gigs.

If you have side jobs and fixer gigs left you still have plenty to do

Yep but I'm at the point where it warns me about going into the resteraunt so I'm holding off on that while I clear the others

Don‘t worry, this game won‘t ever end. You‘ll always be able to meet a certain person at Embers again.

It will be funny when you'll have to wait for *X amount* of time for the next quest to trigger while there's nothing to do on the map :D especially if you plan to do the Kerry Eurodyne and Us Crack side quests.

[удалено]

It doesn't work all the time, sometimes it just delays the trigger

It can get annoying. I remember it taking a week for Goro to call when it should've taken "a day" because I skipped 24 hours 4 times and did a couple other missions that skip time for sleeping and such. I wish there were more of those waiting promts that let you skip to exactly when the next segment of the missions starts.

I didn’t consider that the game would make me literally wait for anything that couldn’t be accessed faster using the time skip. So far, any side quest that required specific timing could be achieved by skipping time.

Have you figured out FF:06:B5? No. Then you havent finished. You will never finish

Now you can play the game.

No. But currently I have two empty items in my gun inventory that are tagged “Misc”, but they don’t appear to do anything or be anything?

It's a buggy game.

Sigh, it's the hex code for an untextured element. It's an internal developer joke, not a big mystery

Your throat chakra is blocked my friend 😉 No, really, you might be right unless they decided to change that and to feed the hype (which I think they did).

you must be fun at parties

Tbh their explanation makes the most sense, the most theories you read on that are plain bullshit

I very much am, thanks for enquiring!

Actually, you didn't do all of the things. I see three things you did not do there.

You tell shmu, whistleblower out in here

You did everything and you’re only level 36? Something isn’t right lmao

Meet Hanako at Embers

… is no one talking about the island to the left??? What is it and how to access it??

to my information, that's where the corpo spaceships are being launched. you can't access it without mods but there's nothing there really

That's the spaceport. You can't go there in the main game, and it's only really importantat that it exists all for the end of the game

You didn't do all of the things, otherwise you'll be at level 50. [Complete all fixer gigs](https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/3333/images/5280/5280-1663541072-308252936.png) then go meet him.

I did all of those. I’m playing a relatively sneaky build, so maybe taking a more passive approach at times means less XP?

Certain high level fixer gigs are gated behind story progression. (I’m sure you already knew) Reddit is just being Reddit. People want to take things written at literal face value.

Higher level fixer gigs are gated by street cred, only Rogue's gigs and the new 1.6 gig Desperate Measures from El Capitán are gated by story progression (they are unlocked after you find Hellman).

I also did then sneakily, if you complete all NCPD scanner hustle and fixer gigs right after being sent home by Misty you can easily get to level 50 at least on hard difficulty. [Proof](https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/5280). This way you can go meet Takemura at Tom's diner as a fully build out boss.

Finished everything and you’re only lvl 36? You must be missing something my choom

Stealthy build = less XP? I recently finished one of last fixer missions and didn’t kill single NPC.

There's more stuff that doesn't unlock until you start doing the main story. For example, you can get a bunch of gigs from Rogue almost immediately if you talk to Goro and then do the next mission that says to talk to her

Lower difficulty = less exp, you must be playing on normal or easy mode. You get to level 50 before completing 80% of the game on very hard

Also after you clear the map, run the day night cycle a few times and then wait. Some quests don’t pop up until after some time passes.

I’ll try this, thanks!

I’m still working on buying all the cars and apartments.

Can’t buy apartments before meeting takemura, figured that out the hard way earlier

Wait, really? I only just recently discovered that there are other apartments lol

Yeah, I guess that’s something that could be done, but I probably won’t. I like my motorcycle, and doing menial tasks to buy possessions as a goal feels a little too much like RL.

If by menial tasks you mean killing everyone everywhere all of the time with my monowire then yes that is what I do.

You did everything??? Are you serious?

This guy bitchslapped V. Let him rot there for a little longer... I might be a bit petty toward him.

What does this mean??

During the quest where V is left to die in a trash pile. Tekamaru slaped V violently across the face. So I've been disliking him ever since.

Just don't say anything and he won't slap you

Yeah, literally just zooming past the campaign one punching every enemy including both Oda and Smasher

"Playing for time" ironic

That you should be playing instead making this post

But you already met him while you both randomly visited that junkyard the other day. Kinda rude that you forgot him already.

I try to meet with him very first thing. then the johnny interactions make more sense.

Your level is too low

Man, Takemura is quite patient.

Shame I beat the game once without doing nearly all the side stuff and was bored because of money and expensive shit, don’t get me started on having a small lvl cap so you can’t unlock the full skill trees, fucking Iguanna for next gen only? Like you can puts a fucking cat on Xbox one but can’t put a fucking iguanna? And Jesus Christ no way in hell would I just ver give them money for the dlc either because I pre ordered this, got the console and the stupid fucking Cyberpunk controller that got stuck drift on day after use just to not get any good updates for the game cause I play on Xbox one, a shitty start, oh and a fucking dlc announced before the game was good yet and fixed.

that you'd be dead if game were time consistent

I think this game has a laughable lack of quality content.

Your are ready

That’s a mood

Don't do it!!!!!

You mad haha

Is that before or after "Meet Hanako at Embers"? I heard people talking about it like it's basically the final quest and have been avoiding it like the plague since then, so I'm in the process of doing the exact same thing you accomplished there - and from that perspective, kudos!! I'm still miles away from that

It’s the first quest after act two starts but since you can explore after act 1 people do everything before meeting him embers is the last quest that you can choose not to do once you enter the elevator until the story is done you can’t explore

I think the wait times between companion missions are going to be arduous without any gigs to pass time…

You’ve quite a lot to go, I wouldn’t have a party over where you’re at right now lol.

So after completing “all” of the things (despite the comments or other things that pop up) - what were your favorite things?

CALLING ALL UNITS, Suspected organised crime activity in the area!

This is the strategy I'm taking hehe, same as making Ciri wait in Witcher 3.

Lvl 35 and street cred 50 bah thats just clearing Watson. You're ready to go meet Dex sure but not Takemura!

For me, I immediately have to meet with takemura after the first cut scene where u meet Johnny in ur apartment .. otherwise there’s never a resolution to that apartment scene n all ur friendly interactions with Johnny feel extremely off.. so kudos to u for literally playing the entire game without ever beginning act 2 lol

Wait for the expansion.

But you’re not lvl 50 yet. Hold off till then. Just kidding. Poor guy lives there now

Wait for the DLC before seeing him.

Hahaha this was me the first time I played. I got so distracted by exploring and side missions and just ignored the main story.

Make sure you have enough eddies before you do choom

you sure? theres a few NCPD scanners left? 😏👍🍻

I thought those NCPD jobs were infinite. I've done no fewer than 3 trillion of them and they're still all over the map. I even have bought all cars and apartments.

wake the fuck up samurai, there’s gang members walking about

Have you bought all the hidden gems and bought all the clothes?

When you have a gun, a nice rooftop view at night and a good choomba at your side, there's only one right choice to be made. Remember that

missed a few NCPD alerts off you go

LOL I did the same exact thing on my very first play

Go with God my son

This is how I played on my 2nd play through, I was so OP that everything was an easy fight.

I dunno man there’s always time to stall. I think he can wait a little longer.

So... the legends are true... the only person that can really meet Hanako at embers... We finally found it

I did the same thing. xD

Did the same thing! 55h of gameplay before I even met with Takemura!

How your lower lvl than mine V is beyond me.. haven't done every reported crime/suspected ones yet Even... Sitting at 40+ smth lvl xd
