Disclaimer to all the ladies and gentlemen in CDPR: the following, i hope, will be one substantial reason to significantly increase quality assurance for any future patches and DLCs released by the team. But, in the same time, i also post this for all the paying customers of your company who are here. This may help them make better informed decisions about whether to use patch 1.2 now and in near future or not, as well as other kinds of better informed decisions - which, i am sure, would also benefit CDPR in the long run.
Here's the thing.
I went to google and entered this query, with ""s:
"Cyberpunk" "1.2" "broken"
Google says: "About 1,170,000 results".
Then, i entered this one other query, with ""s:
"No Man's Sky" "foundation" "broken"
Google says to this one: "About 404,000 results".
Note, "Foundation" was the 1st major patch to No Man's Sky, released November 2016 - 3 months after game's initial release. And at the time, there was global and massive hate campaign against No Man's Sky, which was much greater degree and amount of disapproval and hate against developers than what we have now regarding CP2077.
Also, please note internets had over 4 years to write all kinds of stuff about Foundation update of NMS - while about patch 1.2 here, merely some days. With more time, the 1st number will no doubt increase much further.
Obviously, scales and features involved are massively different, and no cathegorical conclusions can be made based on this simple comparison alone. Still, the numbers are worrying to say the least. It's likely the situation will not improve unless quality and quality assurance for further updates would be much higher.
