00:00:00
cyberpunk 2077 is like an onion you got
00:00:03
to peel back its layers to reveal
00:00:05
everything it has to offer but if you
00:00:08
cut it up too quickly the experience
00:00:10
will end in tears okay maybe this
00:00:12
analogy is falling apart a little bit my
00:00:15
point is there are a lot of ways to play
00:00:17
this game and even if you have a lot of
00:00:19
experience with cyberpunk there may be
00:00:21
some very useful things you missed along
00:00:23
the way but that ends today because in
00:00:26
this video we're going to explore 10
00:00:29
tips and tricks tricks I wish I knew
00:00:31
earlier when playing cyberpunk 2077
00:00:34
number one buy the reinforced tendon
00:00:37
cyberware and do it now one of the first
00:00:40
things I do now in every playthrough is
00:00:42
raise 30,000 credits in act one so I can
00:00:45
buy these bad boys sorry Victor you'll
00:00:48
get your money later I just need a few
00:00:51
more implants to get me going reinforced
00:00:53
tendons are a leg implant you can
00:00:55
purchase from any Ripper dock in the
00:00:57
city they give you the ability to double
00:00:59
jump which is one of the most fun and
00:01:01
useful abilities in the game it
00:01:03
completely changes the way I explore and
00:01:05
fight in this game previously
00:01:07
unreachable areas are now just a double
00:01:09
jump away and in some cases you can even
00:01:12
unlock unique dialogue by getting into
00:01:14
places with your NBA hops like in
00:01:17
Carry's quest line you can even chain
00:01:19
your jumps together with other abilities
00:01:21
such as the new vehicle eject I was
00:01:23
playing around in the game today to try
00:01:25
and recreate one of those cinematic
00:01:27
combat Maneuvers from the trailer so I
00:01:29
ejected from my vehicle double jumped
00:01:32
off it and performed a quake slam on a
00:01:34
group of unsuspecting goons Death from
00:01:37
Above [ __ ] number two aerial
00:01:41
takedowns speaking of Death from Above
00:01:43
you can perform aerial takedowns on
00:01:45
unaware enemies outside of combat
00:01:48
previously this was an unlockable
00:01:50
ability called Hidden Dragon but this
00:01:52
perk was removed from the skill tree in
00:01:54
the 2.0 update the good news is now
00:01:56
anyone can do it even if you don't Speck
00:01:59
into the cool tree at all here's how it
00:02:01
works simply jump onto an enemy from
00:02:04
above and it will automatically trigger
00:02:06
the takeown animation as you fall onto
00:02:08
their stupid heads this is a fun and
00:02:10
stylish way to perform stealth takedowns
00:02:13
and turn cyberpunk into a game of Far
00:02:15
Cry 3 blood Dragon number three the
00:02:18
fastest way to make money in cyberpunk
00:02:21
as you complete quests and loot
00:02:22
different enemies in locations
00:02:24
throughout night City you will
00:02:26
accumulate a boatload of weapons in your
00:02:28
inventory most of these will not be
00:02:30
worth using or upgrading because the
00:02:32
best weapons in the game are usually
00:02:34
earned as Quest Rewards or crafted now
00:02:36
you could disassemble them for crafting
00:02:39
components but the best thing to do is
00:02:41
sell them at one of the various kiosks
00:02:43
or vendors throughout the city if you
00:02:45
need crafting components I recommend
00:02:47
breaking down clothing items instead
00:02:49
since these are plentiful but don't sell
00:02:51
for as much money unless you're doing
00:02:53
some kind of engineering build you
00:02:55
probably won't be doing crafting that
00:02:57
often anyway to me the money is way more
00:02:59
useful ful because you can buy cyberware
00:03:01
quick hacks Vehicles apartments and more
00:03:04
and hell if you need some extra crafting
00:03:06
components down the line you can just
00:03:08
buy them with a fat stack of cash you
00:03:10
raked in from selling all those weapons
00:03:12
number four you can get one of the
00:03:14
fastest cars in the game completely for
00:03:16
free a lot of you probably already know
00:03:19
about this since there were like a
00:03:20
million videos on it when the game
00:03:21
released in 2020 but you can get a free
00:03:24
Rayfield caliburn pretty early in act
00:03:26
two Rayfield is basically the lambo of
00:03:29
the cyberpunk universe and these cars
00:03:31
are incredibly expensive when you buy
00:03:33
them on the open market during the main
00:03:35
story mission where you Ambush Pan's
00:03:37
former Merc partner Nash she will ask
00:03:40
for your help in tracking down Nash at
00:03:42
his Hideout after dealing with Nash and
00:03:44
all his goons you can find the Rayfield
00:03:46
in the tunnel behind the compound simply
00:03:48
approach the shipping container and
00:03:50
unlock your brand new luxury car if you
00:03:52
didn't help PanAm get revenge or haven't
00:03:55
done the quest yet or otherwise missed
00:03:57
the car you can always come back to this
00:03:59
location later it's right here on the
00:04:01
map out in the bad lands it's also worth
00:04:03
pointing out that if you don't give into
00:04:05
pan Ham's vengeful Antics Rogue will
00:04:08
actually give you a free Quadra vehicle
00:04:10
as well so you can get two really nice
00:04:12
really fast free Vehicles during this
00:04:14
quest number five where to find the
00:04:17
thermal Katana when I saw this brand new
00:04:20
Katana weapon during one of the Phantom
00:04:21
Liberty reveal trailers I couldn't wait
00:04:23
to get my hands on it but after playing
00:04:25
through the DLC for a few hours and
00:04:27
never stumbling upon it I decided to
00:04:29
look up where it was you will actually
00:04:31
discover this during the main story
00:04:33
Quest disaster piece where V and Judy
00:04:36
rescue Evelyn Parker from a scav haunt
00:04:39
if you're like me and you already
00:04:40
completed this Quest before the item was
00:04:42
added to the game simply return to the
00:04:44
warehouse at this location on the map
00:04:47
and follow the stairs down into the
00:04:48
basement until you find the room with
00:04:50
the giant furnace the sword is sitting
00:04:52
right there in the Forge this is my
00:04:54
second favorite melee weapon to use in
00:04:56
the game next to the Hammer it's just a
00:04:58
little more fun smashing gunks with a
00:05:00
quake attack but the thermal Katana is
00:05:02
pretty damn fun as well number six
00:05:05
completing all gigs for a fixer Nets you
00:05:08
a unique reward the side gigs in
00:05:10
cyberpunk 2077 are a mixed bag so you
00:05:13
may be tempted to skip them and focus on
00:05:15
the main story or more substantial side
00:05:17
quests however if you do this you'll
00:05:19
miss out on some really great rewards as
00:05:22
of patch 1.5 each fixer will provide you
00:05:25
with a unique reward once you've
00:05:27
completed all of their gigs you can see
00:05:29
how many gigs you've completed for a
00:05:31
fixer by hovering over their map icon I
00:05:33
think the best rewards are from Dino El
00:05:36
Capitan and wakako Dino gives you a
00:05:39
Quadra type 66 which is one of the
00:05:41
fastest cars in the game El Capitan
00:05:44
presents you with the bloody Maria
00:05:45
shotgun and wakako gives you a badass
00:05:48
iconic Katana Padre's reward is pretty
00:05:51
great too it's a power pistol with a
00:05:53
Valentino skin design I know you got to
00:05:56
fix that busted chip in your brain or
00:05:58
you end up dead but don't sleep on those
00:06:00
fixer gigs number seven weapon glitch
00:06:03
quick hack is a lifesaver I've done a
00:06:06
lot of Netrunner builds in my time
00:06:07
playing cyberp Punk but I honestly
00:06:09
skipped out on this quick a until
00:06:11
recently I typically like to build my
00:06:14
character for big damage but the weapon
00:06:16
glitch quick hack is an OP Lifesaver in
00:06:18
many situations basically it makes it so
00:06:21
an enemy's gun temporarily jams and
00:06:23
prevents them from shooting you for a
00:06:25
few seconds I cannot tell you how many
00:06:27
times this quick hack has saved my life
00:06:29
in the Phantom Liberty DLC in particular
00:06:32
so while quick hacks like seppuku cyber
00:06:34
psychosis synapse burnout or detonate
00:06:37
grenade might be sexier and more fun to
00:06:39
use weapon glitch comes in clutch with
00:06:42
phenomenal utility in every combat
00:06:44
situation it's especially great if an
00:06:47
enemy gets the drop on you like those
00:06:49
big lmg mofos that like to spawn behind
00:06:52
you or come out of a side room in many
00:06:54
Phantom Liberty quests so yeah don't
00:06:57
sleep on the weapon glitch quick hack
00:06:59
number eight how to deal with enemy
00:07:01
netrunners Edge Runners can be a real
00:07:03
pain in the ass during combat especially
00:07:05
if you're not paying attention I was
00:07:08
watching a few streams of cyberpunk
00:07:10
recently and noticed people getting
00:07:12
zeroed by overheat quick hacks because
00:07:14
they weren't paying close attention
00:07:16
whenever you're getting hacked you'll
00:07:17
see an upload progress meter show on the
00:07:19
center of your screen it will also
00:07:21
display what the hack is so you can
00:07:24
determine whether or not you need to
00:07:25
stop that Netrunner like yesterday or
00:07:28
just let the hack go go through
00:07:30
netrunners typically need to have line
00:07:32
of sight to hack you and you'll see a
00:07:34
line displaying where the hack is coming
00:07:36
from if you're being hacked through a
00:07:38
camera you can actually disrupt the
00:07:40
quick hack by shooting the camera
00:07:42
otherwise the most reliable way is to
00:07:44
shoot the Netrunner sometimes their hack
00:07:46
will get interrupted with a few bullets
00:07:49
kind of like a spellcaster in a fantasy
00:07:50
game and sometimes you can disrupt a
00:07:53
hack by breaking line of sight although
00:07:55
this isn't completely reliable at the
00:07:57
end of the day the best solution is to
00:07:59
Simply kill the Netrunner but you
00:08:01
definitely don't want to sleep on these
00:08:02
guys because they can stealthily zero
00:08:04
you number nine fun things you can do
00:08:07
with camera hacking whenever you see a
00:08:09
security camera you may be tempted to
00:08:11
Simply hack it and turn it off but there
00:08:13
are a lot of fun things you can do by
00:08:15
taking control of the camera instead for
00:08:17
starters gaining access to One camera in
00:08:19
a security system allows you to swap
00:08:22
between every other camera so if you're
00:08:24
playing stealth you can use this as an
00:08:26
opportunity to survey a level and tag
00:08:28
all the enemies you can also quick hack
00:08:30
enemies or objects through cameras just
00:08:32
be aware that enemies will use their own
00:08:34
cyberware to reveal your location if you
00:08:36
hack them from stealth my favorite thing
00:08:38
to do is actually overload fuel tanks if
00:08:41
there happen to be enemies nearby it's
00:08:43
just too fun watching these gunks
00:08:45
scramble around trying to figure out who
00:08:47
is leveling them number 10 useful Buffs
00:08:50
cyber Punk also has a number of useful
00:08:52
Buffs that you may be overlooking while
00:08:54
you play the first and easiest one to
00:08:57
get is sleep sleeping in a bed grants a
00:08:59
whopping 20% experience bonus for 1H
00:09:02
hour IRL so if you're planning to power
00:09:05
level or grind XP this is a no-brainer
00:09:08
capacity booster is incredibly useful if
00:09:10
you run out of inventory space it grants
00:09:13
a 50% increase to carry weight which
00:09:15
will be enough for you to fast travel
00:09:17
and unload your gear this has saved me a
00:09:19
few times after a long day of looting
00:09:22
food and drink provide bonuses to health
00:09:24
and stamina respectively Ram jolt
00:09:26
increases Ram at the cost of Health
00:09:29
which can be useful for Netrunner builds
00:09:31
you also want to keep an eye out for
00:09:33
items that permanently boost your stats
00:09:35
such as skill shards that drop from
00:09:37
enemies so there you have it 10 Things I
00:09:40
