Small changes have been made to that quest from last year (and some stuff added too), but last time I checked (and it was quite recently... like today), all of those elements/characters (Jackie, T-Bug, Dexter) as well as the quest itself, are still there.

Its pretty near the end of the month, can you let us know when an update might be coming? I for one am very curious about how the updating and reworking of the other 4 factions will be handled, if their going to get the NR treatment or if they will more just be tuned up to be a bit more competitive, but remain largely the same.

I feel like theirs a few archetypes that could use work like Monsters '"If you have fewer unit's then your opponent then X happens/the side with more units has X happen to it" which frankly has never really been all that good and could use a second pass or just a straight up reworking into something else. Plus Poison which feels like its got enough going on that it SHOULD be a thing, but is not really supported enough to actually be a thing.

Anyway I am sure whatever your all up to will be wonderful... Just would be good to have an idea when the rest of us might hear about it.

There will be a video and patchnotes coming out today

Hey everyone!

We’re in Cologne, Germany, and gamescom is in full swing — we’ve already met with so many wonderful community members! For those of you at home — wherever home is — well, we’re not forgetting about you either.

Next week we’re going to host a stream during which we’ll unveil a 15-minute edit of what we’ve been showing to journalists and gamers here at gamescom, and then interview devs from the studio for additional information on what you just saw. Expect a lot of insight into the thought process behind creative decisions, information about Pacifica—one of the districts of Night City—and TONS of stuff on playstyles you’ll be able to adopt when you launch Cyberpunk 2077 next year.

This stream will be available for everyone to watch, so all of you, wherever you are, have a chance to feel a bit of gamescom — or any other trade show — at home. Hosting the entire thing will be our very own Hollie Bennett, our UK head of comms, and the dev line up will include some familiar faces you know and like.

There’s one additional announcement we have for you: we initially planned to showcase gameplay at PAX West, but there’s been a change of plans, and we’ll be streaming from Warsaw. The PAX cosplay contest is still on; we just won’t have the dev panel on-site this time around. There are many logistical (and some creative) reasons behind this decision, but the most important thing we want to say is that we’re sorry for the change of plans. We know that many of you waited to meet us face to face in Seattle and it bums us out that we won’t be able to see each other there.

Watch the stream August 30th, 8PM CEST (11AM PT) on the official CD PROJEKT RED Twitch and Mixer channels.

Now that most of the things since the last roadmap update have happened, do we have an ETA on when we might get more information on what else is coming in the near and far future for Gwent? Thanks!

There should be a streamer closer to the end of the month, which will shed some more light
