Cyberpunk 2077 is in a Much Better State, But There Are Still Some Issues

First of all, I want to give credit where it's due. Cyberpunk 2077 has improved tremendously since launch. The gameplay, visuals, and overall experience are significantly better, and it's clear that a lot of work has gone into bringing the game to where it is today.

That said, after spending more time playing, I've still come across a number of bugs and technical issues that affect the experience. None of these are game-breaking on their own, but they're frequent enough to be worth mentioning.

Issues I've Encountered​

1. Random crashes – The game has crashed twice during my playthrough.
2. Shadow texture glitches – In certain areas, shadows appear to have texture or rendering issues.
3. NPCs clipping through each other – Pedestrians occasionally overlap or walk directly through one another.
4. NPCs standing on railings – I've seen NPCs randomly standing or balancing on top of railings instead of using the sidewalk.
5. NPCs clipping through vehicles – Sometimes pedestrians phase through moving or parked cars.
6. Player vehicle collision/response issues – Occasionally, my own vehicle behaves strangely and seems to collide with or "hit" my character unexpectedly.
7. Certain stairs are not fully walkable – There are a few staircases where the character can't walk up normally and has to jump instead.
8. Loading screen stutter – Noticeable stuttering occurs during some loading screens.
9. Microstuttering in parts of Night City – Some areas suffer from intermittent microstutters despite otherwise stable performance.
10. NPCs blocking traffic – I've encountered NPCs randomly standing in the middle of roads, causing traffic to stop as if their AI has glitched.
11. Floating food and drinks in restaurants – If NPCs panic and raise their hands while eating (for example, after the player causes violence nearby), their food and drinks remain floating in mid-air instead of reacting naturally.
12. Player clipping through NPCs – In certain areas, my character can clip through NPCs. This doesn't happen everywhere, but I've encountered it multiple times.
13. Player collision/hitbox issues with small objects – The player's collision or hitbox seems inconsistent around objects like glasses, bottles, and other small props, often causing awkward interactions.
    
    
14. Further bugs encountered:
    • Lighting issue: In certain areas, after exiting the map/menu, the game's lighting becomes incorrect until it refreshes. The scene appears visually broken, with lighting not rendering as expected.
    • Sleep transition lighting bug: Whenever V goes to sleep, the screen fades to black as expected, but the radio's illuminated display/light remains visible for a short time before disappearing. The radio light does not fade out with the rest of the environment, making the transition look visually inconsistent.
    • Jackie clips through the gates/doors while entering the Afterlife during the relevant story sequence instead of following the proper animation/path.
    • NPC crowd glitch: Occasionally, groups of NPCs become glitched and remain crouched together in packs in public areas, even when there is no combat, threat, or apparent reason for them to be crouching
    
    
15. Further bugs encountered:
    • Road clipping: If V jumps off a motorcycle at high speed, V can clip through the road surface and briefly fall below the map before recovering or getting stuck.
    • Invisible vehicle collision: While walking on the road, V was suddenly hit as if struck by a vehicle, but no vehicle was visible. It appeared as though an invisible car collided with the player.
    • Driver AI behavior: Vehicle AI behaves oddly when V stands in front of traffic. Instead of reacting naturally, drivers may hesitate, stop indefinitely, make unrealistic movements, or behave inconsistently while trying to navigate around the player.
    
    
16. V Glitched out: Happened once, V glitched out. They did not pull any weapon nor were able to perfom hacks, only thing they were capable of doing was driving. Loading the game fixed the issue.

Overall, I'm really enjoying the game, and I appreciate how far it has come. I'm posting these issues in the hope that they can be investigated and improved in future patches. If anyone else has experienced similar bugs, feel free to share them here.

(Few Screenshots have been attached, could not take screen shots for point number 15)
