Modders Just Added Back One of Cyberpunk 2077’s BIGGEST Cut Features!

[@StratumPress]

I want a story-free version of Night City. One where I wake up as a random person in the city and just live in NC.

[@muaythaiization]

exactly bro would be so sick.

[@Gabrilos505]

There's a mod that changes and add a new beginning to the game, I think it's called "Fresh Start". That makes me believe that this sort of idea is actually doable and soon we may get a mod that functions like those Fallout 4 ones where they get rid of the usual starts and just drop you into the game with whatever stats and role you choose

[@SP7000SP]

Just ignore missions? 😂

[@90snetworkproductions79]

Won’t work, it’s just like those alternate start mods in Skyrim, except Cyberpunk is built around you being V. Take that away, and the rest of the game falls apart, narrative-wise.

[@UpperDarbyDetailing]

See, that’s one area where I think the live service model could actually work. Imagine a Night City with new missions added all the time based on what factions you’re cool with, and EVE Online levels of role playing? Without the real money.

[@JawadBhuiyan]

Bro, survival mechanics is one of my favorite things in open-world games. I was so disappointed this wasn't a feature in the game. But now I gotta replay with the mod, I prayed for times like this.

[@Youkai_graphics]

imo, it doesnt need a survival mechanics, its not a survival game, so it wouldnt make sense and it will just make it more of a hassle, so im glad they cut this, but it could be a nice mod if people want to make the game more realistic

[@JawadBhuiyan]

@@Youkai_graphics Definitely. It's just a personal preference for me.

[@KaitouKaiju]

​@@Youkai_graphicsThere definitely needed to be more point in eating and drinking because in the base game the buff you get does not matter in the slightest

[@rickotap3859]

I've been playing with Dark Future for a while now, bassically since it came out. I definetly recommend it very much. It just feels a lot more immersive, and even though I already knew NC pretty well, just the fact you're looking actively for kiosks to by smokes and food stands makes you find a lot more interesting places. I just end up being on foot a lot more and marvel at all the details to be found in the city. small effect, like the sounds when you eat and drink and that little puff of smoke after smoking are also really cool. The thing that I didn't like at first, was that items like XXL Burritos give only fill about 8% of your food level, but after a while I realized that the modder(s) did a really good job at balancing here, If you were able to just find enough good quality food it would stop you from having to care about it completely. It will be hard for me to ever play without this mod now xD

[@fanaticdavid]

I have no experience with the mod myself, but it definitely feels like it should've been part of the base game all along. Some of the elements in the base game like the food stands and looting alcohol don't make sense otherwise.

[@Sockrust1]

Dark Future, Enemies of Night City, and Wannabe Edgerunner make the game so immersive! I don't think I can go back after installing these mods.

[@Underqualified_Gunman]

highly reccomend the addon for wannabe edge runner. you'll need to do some fixes found in the comments though.

[@Sockrust1]

@Underqualified_Gunman I wasn't aware that existed, though I have a bunch of cyberware, so the passive might not do much for me. But I am doing non-lethal, so that might be nice to offset my overclock use.

[@ManlyTear]

I've been using some features of this mod as independent mods and been having a blast (Like the Survival Mod, and gang & corpo traits for more unique enemy stats based on their faction) , and it's been a blast. Immersion gets sky high, and this is my 1st run and wouldn't wanna play the game w/o them.

That clip where an enemy uses his sandevistan to zip over to his fallen ally adds a perfect touch of character to an otherwise nameless NPC. I can easily imagine David Martinez rushing to the side of a gunned-down choom to patch them up.

[@aaronlauretani8921]

I think the "nerve" mechanic fundamentally misunderstands that a big part of the CP2077 philosophy is the idea that manic violence is among the things that has become the most normalized.

[@UpperDarbyDetailing]

Yeah, I’d think coming out of combat without getting hit and/or going through it particularly stylishly would actually INCREASE your Nerve.

[@alaric_]

Umm, that is your interpretation of the world. The violence is ONE aspect of it but it's not THE philosophy. The core philosophy of the Cyberpunk world revolves around rebellion against systemic oppression, corporate dominance, and societal decay. Mike Pondsmith, the creator of Cyberpunk, says that the world is designed as a cautionary tale. He describes it as "not an aspiration to live in," highlighting the inherent dangers of its corporate-dominated reality. If you think he created the world as pure anarchy and rampage for people indulge in, you're sorely mistaken. The mechanic of fulfilling needs to cope with the daily life is very well fitting for the world.

[@aaronlauretani8921]

@@alaric_ I never said it was THE philosophy - strawperson. I said that manic violence had been normalized, and I merely said it was a "big part" of the dystopian nightmare of Night City. It's an element that, in my opinion, does not cohere with your merc main character suffering from anxiety after every fight. I just did a gig tonight where V killed soldiers in pursuit of a Corpo. He screamed out, "You killed them!" after the fight while my V's voice line showed that she barely cared. That's by design.

[@p_serdiuk]

How you would design this system, then? What should decrease Nerve?

lower time to kill isnt more realistic anyway

[@pinkestlasagna]

@@Leo.23232definitely is way more realistic than shooting someone in the head 10 times with an assault rifle and have them be fine

[@Leo.23232]

@pinkestlasagna yes, theres just nuance to this, it wont be realistic either way, you need more mechanics than just damage and health for it to be realistic. high time to killis unrealistic because you can tank multiple headshots as you said, low time to kill is unrealistic when people drop after 2 shots to the body from a 9mm which isn't impossible tbf, but somtimes people can tank over 10 and keep going (until they bleed out later at least) also not mentioning at all that in this game specifically you and a lot of enemies have cyberware armour so they would be able to potentially tank some shots to the head anyway

[@tintschi2049]

@@Leo.23232 you said nuance but then straight went to the other extreme of things. it doesnt need to be 100% realistic, no game can be anyways. realism in games is always a balance between the realistic elements and how fun the game is to play with said elements

[@Leo.23232]

@@tintschi2049 well i never said otherwise, my point only was that super 'hardcore' low time to kill especially in this setting isnt more realistic, theres a middle ground between base game and that mod that would be more realistic than both as for fun, i find higher time to kill more fun generally anyway but that is besides the original point

[@beanmclean7959]

Didn’t get mentioned here but the Limited HUD mod is essential to round out the “immersive” overhaul. You can choose when each hud element gets hidden, like no minimap in combat for example. When I’m walking around normally there’s no HUD at all, so taking in the sights of the city isn’t obstructed by anything.

[@Silath01]

Something I have been wanting is something that connects hud elements to Eye cyberware, does that mode do that

[@marka1000]

if you could also animate a lot of the food and drink consumption then this would be S-tier. The built in UI for buying and selling is so bad, it clearly takes me out of the immersion of being in Night City. Even taking out the whole HUD was such a boost in immersion. I think Orion should limit the amount of HUD that isn't Augmented reality in-game. Like for example, if I'm buying stuff from a vendor, there should just be a selection bar, like in dialogue with all the items to buy and sell options in-game and not in menu. You'd expect Night City to be so immersive but it always takes you out of it and going into pause menus and such. I think it was deliberate how they always take you out of the game every time with a pause menu.

[@yourbarber6732]

@@Silath01Yes you can set it so nothing appears on your hud but you can see specific markers when you either scan or zoom in with L2. Combine this with in world navigation mod and you can drive anywhere seemlessly without having to look at a mini map or only seeing a quest marker and guessing where to turn. Dark future mod limits vehicle summons and disabled fast travel (optional) so I also use transports of NC and metro transit guide so I can call a taxi or take the bus whenever I run out of summons.

[@Zood94]

Seeing that shootout location feel familiar or the same every time I replay the game makes me wish we could have a Cyberpunk game with an A-life system from Stalker. This would make the world feel more alive and offer different scenery during fights with enemies.

[@archduke0000]

Do you want enemies to eat a burger in front of you so that you KNOW they're well fed? It's a game, people eating to survive is implied. A bit different when it comes to the Nerve system but that's not hard to really consider either. The vast majority of enemies are gang members or hardened trained soldiers. The former haven't seen as much as V has and the latter also know how to deal with their own issues. The final portion of the video even showcases giving enemies abilities that are normally exclusive to V, come on bro.

[@christopherscott932]

@@archduke0000 Chill guy not everyone watches until the end, it happens it's normal. Either way I need an NPC that has to and will jump through all the same hoops that I have to in the game. This includes leveling up choosing perks running out of ammo, having a sleep schedule, an eating schedule, has priorities and we'll even seek out certain other NPCs for different activities. I want my NPCs to even be able to travel, I want it all and then some and I'm going to watch this video again later but I have my doubts about how much of this mod is going to make its way over to the NPCs.

[@beanmclean7959]

@@christopherscott932 ​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠No flame here I respect you giving your opinion and this isn’t me saying you’re wrong. The only game I can think of that fits most of your criteria is Deadly Premonition. I hope it’s everything you wanted. Genuinely, it’s a cult classic. Real talk, devs don’t care to add that level of minutia. Especially when the game has a large scope. Hardcore CRPG’s like BG3 don’t even try that hard on irrelevant details. I guess your issue is with your capacity for imagination/suspension of disbelief. When I walk into a bar or restaurant I assume the people there are eating or drinking. Empirical data is unnecessary. I play with Dark Future and Enemies of NC (not hardcore22) so I have a some perspective. A mod like Dark Future encourages you to use facilities as they are intended within the game world; outside of just viewing them as a location to kill more people. Enemies of NC, among other things makes it so that enemies with sandevistan, depending on the rank (1-3), can keep up with a player sandy. In the vanilla game if the player uses a sandy, enemies with them will be just as slow as those without. With the mod, each rank will move faster than the last, and rank 3 sandy enemies can keep up with a Falcon or Apogee. So there’s an example of npc’s being able to do what you do. Hardcore22 is stupid though. Cyber-enhanced peeps shouldn’t drop in one shot, in my opinion.

Enemies of Night City is my favorite Cyberpunk mod ever. It makes all the mundane fights so much harder and interesting. The hardest mode of base Cyberpunk is still really easy. This changes that.

[@Garcian_Smith]

An interesting mod none the less but I'm seeing a lot weak justifications and a little bit of mental gymnastics around why the "nerve" mechanic makes sense. For goodness sake you're a gun for hire, a mercenary AKA a sell sword so getting "nervous" or loosing one's nerve during a hit or assassination missions absolutely makes no sense what so ever especially around that fact that you have to do it multiple times. A gun for hire that's easily stressed by new environments, has a guilty conscience for killing people and needs to self soothe? Are folks sure they wanna play Cyberpunk at all installing this mod? Someone else in the comments already summed it up quite well that the "nerve" mechanic fundamentally misunderstands that a big part of the CP2077 philosophy is the idea that manic violence is among the things that has become the most normalized. This mod feels like it has one too many "immersive" moments that feel more like a chore than a challenge.

[@prauwnsauce]

Very good point, you can adjust every facet of the mod so stuff like this isn’t really that big of a deal. The mod adds a ton of reasons to use items other than your health stim and that’s worth having a little bit of a shaky hand.

[@syntaxusdogmata3333]

You read my mind. I have no problem with a game mechanic that insists I take in some occasional down time, but when I'm on a protracted mission, the last thing I need is to think about how to budget my "nerve" rating in order to see it through to the end. All too often, factors like hunger and thirst only means I have to remember to stock up before going out, and that's the long and the short of it. This doesn't make the game more fun, and certainly not more immersive. On the contrary, it ends up feeling more gamelike than lifelike.

[@cynicalmemester1694]

Death is still something to be feared in the world or Cyberpunk. People panic whenever there's a shootout, or you're going around shooting everyone. V panics when Viktor tells her/him that they are dying. V is always scared, he just knows how to compartmentalize that feeling and do his job.

[@thedangerbag]

I installed the hardcore mod a while back and now I can't play without it. I hate the balancing of the base game in comparison. The only issue I have is that some semi-scripted sections become incredibly difficult; Playing as Kurt Hansen in that side gig, for example. But the trade off is worth it. Blasting people away with a Burya or opening up on groups with a MA70 HB is so much fun. Makes V feel like the boogeyman of NC, but balanced by the fact that a well placed shot can flatline you near instantly.

[@mistermann4163]

This doesn't look half bad but if just nonlethal take downs or destroying robots causes your nerve to go down then that seems like something that should be tweaked to not make it go down on top of Cyberware/Backstory tied into this stuff to make it even more impactful/immersive in what you have in your body with you not going to the menu to tweak it every time when you want something to change about your character(maybe the dialogue options doing that as well).

[@himbourbanist]

I had a feeling that all of the consumable food and drink items at one point in development had a much larger impact on the gameplay and was cut. There are SO many options but in the base game they all kinda do the same thing. I know that there are some drugs you can buy in PL that increase scores and do more intense stuff, but there's no addiction downside to prevent you from blowing through them and so on. This mod seems to link in the survival-lite elements of non-hardcore mode Fallout and I really like that. I think the twists are also very good, often survival mode becomes a tedious chore in games in the later game, when you have all the money in the world and can just purchase all the water and food you need - but the nerve bar and the stimulant limitations all add a really solid new dynamic that balances that out really well. Overall it's cool

I just wish there were combat overhauls that were somewhere inbetween. All I ever see are base games where enemies just eat bullets for breakfast like Trix even though they themselves are not a kid. Or the guy in full body armor, with military cyberware, more machine than man with their only organic part left from a child is likely their brain and heart are killed in 2 shots from a 9 mm. I just... I just wished there was a happy medium. One that understood that in the universe people can become slightly superhuman and take more punishment we can in reality. Not to the extent it is in the game but... even on the tabletop which is WAY more lethal than the game enemies can often take a LOT to kill. Not as much IN 2077 but still. I dunno, I just wish there was SOME MOD that was a happy medium.

I can honestly see why CDPR didn't put a survival mode in the game.

Also your gun shakes cause you're having a panic attack mid firefight! No, you'd rather us make the game better? ...Fair." IMO, just cause a game is more analogous to real life does not make it better. In fact I find it to be the opposite most times. That said, i'm glad it exists for the 1% of psychopaths out there. Keep them playing the game and not torturing the family pet or something.

I think Skyrim handled this perfectly. At the start you just get a popup "Do you want to enable survival mode?" And you either go with "yes" or "no". People who like it can use it, and people who don't just don't have to. As every game should be.

So yes, it could be seen as a mod i guess, thanks for clarifying.

i promise you're not cool and smart for implying that because i like to be challenged by video games, i must be a psychopath who tortures cats. i abso-fucking-lutely promise that "people who like actually having to think are crazy and dangerous" exclusively says things about you, not us, and believe me, the things it says about you are not positive.

Ultimate gaming experience - develop long-term depression or addiction in game 😂

[@yabs9642]

id like this mod if they actually added animations and a shitload of bars and places you can go to for food and actually sit down to eat or drink. if youre making a life sim go all out i dont want to eat it out of inventory

[@Cwronaga216]

Curious how this interacts with Wannabe Edgerunner. Would be cool if Cyber Psychosis and nueroblockers effected Nerve.

Modders giving us NG+ before CDPR does.

I made a mistake going the console route back in the day, I really regret that none of these modes are available on Xbox

[@kishaloyb.7937]

Some of the recent mods for this game are so good that they should be added and shipped with the game officially, so that even console players can enjoy them. Maybe in the future, CDPR can allow modding on consoles for CP2077.

The only unfortunate thing about ENC is that it's an anti stealth. Cannot get jiggy with that :/

[@DivineOfMadness]

add edgerunner wannabe on top that adds humanity stat. Amazingly under rated mod. SPOILER: You can have cyberpsychosis break

[@dotdot2560]

What I love most about Dark Future is I have never used drugs or alcohol now I can get the bonuses and up my nerve while also dealing with addiction i love it i use what you do plus one extra mod i think is sadly missing i use the weapon conditioning mod which not only adds a condition to all weapons including modded weapons it adds a jamming system which is brutal when your condition drops below 50% and only upgrading the weapon can fix the weapons Ps. I also love wannabe edgerunner adding in that humanity system -dark future -hardcore 22v2 -enemies of night city -weapon conditioning -wannabe edgerunner This combo makes the gane so immersive im in love with it

[@thestarscape2446]

cyberpunk is one of the only franchises where Not having a hud is less realistic,,

[@Mack_au]

They fix the cops on ps5 spawn jumping in on top of you because you looked at them dirty. I might give it a second chance.

[@vaulthunterfromterra4053]

Cyberpunk fans: we want NG+ Cyberpunk devs: best we can do is Ultra Hardcore, then cancel it last minute.

[@JimnyVR5]

max 4 energy drinks a day? that breaks my immersion :)

[@theputnamto3468]

if only night city wasnt in a dust storm.

[@Toymakerkarl]

How about a mod that gives me a parking space in Corpo Plaza?

[@KaitouKaiju]

There's a mod that gives you a parking space for every apartment

[@brucenatelee]

I just want single player action games to have a single player arena survival mode.

[@Tyrannosaur6265]

My only questions are these a “Vortex” mods or “manual” mods, & do they still work on 2.2?

[@bennyb.1742]

You know what game would have been really cool with this "nerve" mechanic? Far Cry 3. It's kind of part of the storyline and it sort of addresses the main characters "heart of darkness" like arc, but not well enough imo. Having a debuff from committing violence that gets less and less the more you do it, until it becomes a buff but at that point you're locked into the "bad" path would have been cool. No more slaughtering an entire island with a machete and then living happily ever after with your pretty little GF.
