Cyberpunk 2077 Grieving Thread

With all the payment processor stuff going on today, made me realise that they're not an issue in Cyberpunk 2077 at all. In real life they'll fuck with your ability to buy and sell firearms but in game not a single peep, you can just walk into a gun store, buy weapons, ammo and weapon attachments even the highly regulated suppressors, same with buying whores and BDs at no point does a payment processor step in and say you're not allowed to buy that as it'll affect our reputation. What a crazy dystopia.
That's because its all direct peer to peer financial transfers. Turns out the payment processors were such assholes all the megacorps just decided to work around them instead of put up with them.

Oh, and uh... all those guns aren't just regulated, they're straight up illegal. But Night City is such a shithole that even 50 years ago during the 2020's nobody gave a shit what you were packing as long as you weren't waving it at them. Well, corporate security might take it personally if you carried an automatic weapon into their well-patrolled areas where its relatively safe, but anywhere else? Yeah, NCPD would have few fucks to give about an otherwise law-abiding citizen having a few automatic weapons in their possession, especially if they've been used once or twice to clean up the streets.
 
Digital Foundry's overview on Cyberpunk 2077 on Mac's dropped.


Couple of interesting things is that Apple supplied DF with some Macs for it. A M4 Mac mini, M4 Max 16 inch MacBook Pro, and a M3 Ultra Mac Studio.

Shaders preload on start (I've noticed the same thing with Robocop Rogue City, personally), and ray tracing seems to hurt.
Some shimmering with MetalFX, and the MacBook Pro lasted 78 minutes on default For this Mac mode, with HDR brightness set to full. No performance hit from battery.

M4 Max estimated to be around 4060 levels of performance.
M3 Ultra hovers between 4060 and 5060 Ti, but closer to 4060.
M4 Mini falls behind a AMD RX 6600, however outperforms a Steam Deck by about 47%.


I'd say the M4 Mini's a more realistic estimate of average Mac performance, in fairness.
