Anarkitek: I'd really like to know your opinion on my 'added edit' specifically. Do you think to have Anton Chigurh's captive bolt weapon (a device normally used to slaughter cattle) with a very small air bottle (which actually exist) in CP2077 would be nice or even make sense in CP2077 ?
I have to admit I skipped that part, because I didn't know who Anton Chigurh was. If that's the guy from the movie "No Country for Old Men" (and I had to google that), I'm not sure I ever got around to watch it. I know the name of the movie, but I'm not sure if I've seen it. The movie name is familiar, so I should have it on my home server.

I have to google everything here, but if the weapon you refer to is the preasured air-driven pistol (and not the silenced shotgun), then...sure. The weapon itself seems pretty basic, and is probably something Anthony Harris would be intimately familiar with.

Considering we already have bottled air (like the scuba scenes), it shouldn't be a far stretch to see it utilized in conjunction with a projectile weapon. Though I don't know exactly how such a weapon actually works, and having had an accident with a nail gun (the safety was faulty, which nobody told me), I feel I am better off not knowing.

An air-driven weapon feels kinda specialized though, hence my reference to the River quest line. But I can certainly see the gangs use it, as a weapon to use when making a statement.

I'd still argue a flashlight should be implemented first though. I have been missing red / green laser sights too, to be honest. And for the weapons to be majorly moddable in the first place. Wilson feels like a hugely underused character overall.

It's not a pistol because no projectile leaves the device. The bolt is 'captive' in that after it perforates the target it retracts back into the 'handle' under the pressure of a metal spring.

If GOG will allow links to YouTube, see it in action here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18ty16dd41I

Now imagine you can use a tank that is only 1/10th the size what you see in the clip/movie. IMHO the result is the key ingredient for the absolute stealth build.

Okay, that clip was creepy. Javier Bardem's performance made me squirm, just watching him in Skyfall. And he was even worse (as in, an even better performance) here!

As for the weapon...it would give someone not going Netrunner some physical options for silent takedowns. Sneaking up behind someone to grab them is not always an option, and going in from the front always leads to the "alarm" going off, and combat ensues.

There are throwing weapons in the game now though, which practically serves the same purpose, so as far as the effect goes, the game already have such weapons.

Now as for the uniqueness of that air weapon...damn, I haven't seen anything like it before. And not being psychotic, I don't think I would ever use it if it were in the game. Going ham on NPCs in the game with a baseball bat is one thing, as they shoot at me first.

I am sometimes trying to de-escalate a situation by speaking calmly to my monitor, as the game doesn't give me options other than to walk away or fight, and when that inevitably doesn't work - and they start shooting at me - yeah, all courtesies are off the table.

I didn't quite understand about silent kills. The game has silencers (though they're only effective with pistols, another problem with the game). And if you have Sandevistan, you can just walk up to an enemy from behind faster than anyone can react and hug him :3

It's a weapon that is very representative of the character. Javier Bardeem reported he absolutely hated having to wear this type of haircut.

I find the movie and the performance of the actor just plain remarkable.
So, for all my positive experiences with Cyberpunk 2007, and the Phantom Liberty expansion (yes, it's an expansion - no, it's NOT a DLC! Because DLCs are horse armour, and Phantom Liberty is more than that), I am now finding myself at the point, or at least close to it, where there is nothing more to do.

Being max level, max street cred, done all the main missions and side gigs, and the almost all police scanner crime reports...what else is there to do in the game?

I was really surprised when I yesterday received another unique weapon from a Dogtown airdrop (Foxhound), after I was certain I had already obtained them all. But driving around, waiting for drops, is World of Warcraft levels of waste of time, so that not something I see myself doing for a possible chance at getting another weapon I won't ever use.

Only thing that remains is the "Slow Regard of Silent Things" (Kingkiller Chronicles Book 3, when?), where I am supposed to meet a monk to teach me meditation. And the Brendan S.C.S.M. And I won't touch that mission, I refuse to do it, until I can hack (Intelligence), steal (Technical Ability), threaten (Body) or bribe (pay money) the clerk to add the Brendon personality to my H10 Atrium apartment S.C.S.M.

#Justice_for_Brendan! Also, hearing Brendan and Skippy bickering the moment I enter the apartment would be hilarious (Craig Alanson, Expeditionary Force book 19 is supposed to release in December this year btw).

There is of course the main endings, with all the different calls I can done up on the roof top. Already done the "secret ending", (Don't Fear The Reaper - though I had to edit a quest fact to enable it), and there is the Nomad ending and the various options - neither of which will in itself unlock more content.

My main gripe at this point is no New Game+, as I know has been requested multiple times. But at practically level 100 (20 in all the attributes), and exchanging 100.000 Eddies for a perk point with a character editor, because I can't use any money on anything anymore, it truly does feel like the endgame now.

What I would want is some ability to replay and experience all the different Phantom Liberty endings. With the major glitch I had when meeting with colonel Hansen, that is where I would want to try again. As I only went through the motions at that point - and I was already set on screwing over Songbird from the start, and I blessedly got to kill her myself, like she deserved after what she put me through.
Holy.... who has time to read all this man? You talking to yourself?
Why are you wasting your time with troll posts?
