Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and wanted to share a few small suggestions I had for Cyberpunk 2077. Since I can't create a new thread yet, I'm posting them here as advised.
I don't know if anyone will ever read this—part of me hopes someone does, while another part knows this might be a bit crazy, both for the developers and for us players.
Still, I’ve got a couple of ideas that could be added to the game and maybe they wouldn’t be *too* much of a pain to implement:
- It would be super cool—and a really nice touch—if, just like you can customize the H10 apartment (changing the colors and style), you could also do that with the rest of the apartments. It would add a bit more immersion and, let’s be honest—who *wouldn’t* want their Corpo apartment styled like a pro?
- It would also be awesome to have some kind of cyberware that makes you immune to fall damage—or at least reduces it. Alternatively, maybe some kind of aerial suit could work too?
I know that introducing new mechanics into a game is complex and takes time. You’re doing an amazing job listening to the community, respecting mod creators, and even integrating some of their ideas.
Still, I just wanted to leave these little suggestions—who knows, maybe I’ll get lucky and one of them will make it in.
Thank you all for the great work and community support! Keep up the great work!
Jet pack! That would make practicing parkour a lot easier. But then you would not need the parkour...
I wonder if there is a mod for jet packs. The "jump pack" mod for Fallout added another 50 hours of play as it allowed exploration in the sky scrapers and broken above head highways (and even combat with some hidden up high npcs) into numerous areas I did not even know existed. And the novelty made me play old areas again for another 50 hours or so.

Well, a jet pack might take away some of the fun of climbing, which is why I didn’t go straight for one. It’s not really that I want to take off like Buzz Lightyear — what I’m looking for is more something that removes or reduces fall damage, since sometimes my climbing ends in total death Something like in Deus Ex!
The wingsuit idea is more about how cool it would be to fly across the city after climbing a tall building, kind of like in Far Cry. But I get that it might be more complex or maybe feel a bit out of place in Cyberpunk. Still, it would be awesome!
Honestly, it makes no sense that leg cyberware doesn't already provide fall damage reduction (Besides Lynx Paws for some reason)
Like, if I'm upgrading my legs so they can make me megajump... Why would I not also include shock absorbers to make it so that megajumping doesn't break my spine?
Also, it should be part of the Superhero Landing ability. Since literally, the ability mentions how it is more effective the higher you fall... But then actually trying to use that to its natural maximum (I.e. Megajumping off a building to annihilate some gonk) and you just die...
I'm really hoping Orion provides a lot more support for world traversal;
- Better parkour (The current ledge grab is really janky, often not activating when jumping at a ledge, or othertimes you stick your hands out and simply don't grab at all)
- Improved charged jump, with much more max height (More akin to OG Deus Ex where you could literally jump onto a roof)
- Improved double jump, more height and more parkour opportunities to grab onto things or stand on things to reset the jumps.
- Added functionality to vertically challenged cyberware. Wallrunning to Leeroy/Jenkins cyberware. Walljumping to Lynx Paws (No, not like the mod that has the awful mechanic where you jump away from the wall... But the ability to climb walls by jumping up them)
- External mobility options (Due to my desire for cyberware being an OPTION for character progression, not the ONLY path allowing more build variety and choice - As well as gameplay adjustments (I.e. Being immune to certain quickhacks if the parts of the body they target aren't chromed, such as no leg cyberware? Cripple Movement doesn't affect you. No hand cyberware? Weapon malfunction doesn't work etc). Things like a grappling hook and Jetboots (For something similar to charged jump)
When it comes to the apartments, it would be nice to add some more customisation and stuff. Maybe nothing that could be too big. I do like the photo frames they implemented, not sure if they could add more unless we somehow get a new safehouse.
When it comes to the H10 one ( V's default ), I've just stuck with the default skin for that apartment. The one with the purple pattern, but that's more to do with the style of my current guy. Maybe we could do with some extra apartment skins for all apartments, maybe some inspired by factions like:
A menacing red neon lit dark Maelstrom den look.
Red & blue 6th Street vigilant.
Also always love to see more decorations popping up around the apartments, maybe stuff we can buy or find out in NC.

Yeah, I totally agree — it really doesn’t make much sense that there’s no built-in way to avoid fall damage with leg cyberware. I mean, come on, seeing V drop down like Batman would be so cool, hahaha.
I’m also completely on board with your ideas for the next project they’re working on. Game development is definitely tough and complicated — I can understand that even as a modder. But in the meantime, it’d just be nice to have some way to fall with style.

Usually, I really enjoy just decorating the apartments and taking photos to pass the time (I mean, V dying isn’t that important, right? Hahaha). All the apartments look great, but my favorite is definitely V’s — it has so many little things, from decorations to those mission-related objects that make you feel less alone, plus the option to change skins and colors. It feels the most immersive to me.
Also, a nice little bonus is that when you meet up with your partners, only in that apartment (if you’re inside) you get to open the door and get a little kiss ^^; but that’s a whole different story.
It would be cool if other apartments had those skins or themes to set the mood too (though I don’t think adding new apartments is necessary). And of course, more photo frames! (By the way, there are tons of mods that let you have more frames — which I really appreciate — but console players have it tougher with that.)
So let’s make some noise and see if they can add that!! <3
Something like in Deus Ex!
