Trauma drama is way too hard

+
Hi, it's been a week now that i tried to beat the highscore for hours and hours and hours and hours but it's impossible to do 400K or more... it's gonna take a month or more before i beat the highscore, this is not funny anymore,, this is torture..

The highscore is way too high for a lambda player or occasional player and i understand why many use mods or cheat...

i don't want to use a mod or cheat, developers need to adjust the high score to something like 300K.

Thank you.
 
I think it's supposed to be quite difficult. Also apparently there is a really easy way to cheese the game, I don't know if it was patched in 2.01 though.
 
As of 2.01 it was patched, and it's way too much. The high score must be brought down because attempting to get the outfit now is a miserable experience.
 
Yeah, I really don't know why they made Trauma Drama so damn hard to win. Had one run where I died only twice and I came up 3000 points short of the High Score. There was a certain amount of rage.

I honestly think they need to decrease the High Scores for Trauma Drama and Roach Race, or perhaps link them to game difficulty and/or give them their own difficulty slider, because hiding unique items and quests behind completing those games is really not fun at all.

I'm free! No deaths whatsoever, clearing most of the enemies on the levels. What a horrible experience.
 
Dude it's extremely difficult, and I keep dying from randomly falling through the floor, the score is just way too high, this is just frustrating at this point, I've played for hours upon hours and only managed third place, there's barely enough room to dodge the glass for the second boss,like this will literally be impossible for people like me to beat
 
Honestly, I didn't even understand the point of getting rid of the cheese anyways. It's a single player game, and it was for items that provide no benefit really, outside of fun flare for the apartment and to use in the wardrobe. The folks who don't want to cheese it wouldn't and those who were okay with the cheese did, so what? lol Pointless patch imho. There's other bugs that are far more important to fix than trauma drama, like feedback loop for example with netrunning. Just my thoughts on it anyways, don't care either way, if I feel like trying to grind it out later I will, otherwise oh well.

What do the games drop for high score? I didn't even know there was anything tied to them

EDIT: never mind i searched on the cyberpunk wikia

It would have much more sense if we as players had the chance to meet/plug in to some mutlplayer bar in game, where we could drink a bear while playing chess or card game with friends or make new ones. Pushing for the Roach Race, a mini game from another fantasy world not related with Cyberpunk, is pointless to me, I never played it for real and never will be. Not a fan of Witcher. Same story with Trauma Drama, not a best way to entertain people in my opinion. When someone gets to a really high score, what's the point for me to even trying.
 
The game is a lot of fun. Absolute nostalgia blast, but holy hell, it's way too difficult.

I spent at least 1 hour just getting through the levels. Died many times.

I just can't see myself investing a days worth of hours to beat the highscore.

As others noted, there are parts where you can just fall through over and over before you even realize you've done it 3x.

And the bosses do not leave any room for error, not at least to get the high score.

Really fun game though.
 
This arcade game is nearly impossible to complete. It's not even a rewarding challenging it's impossible to complete. Bosses need less health, and the highscore has to be lowered way down. Ive spent days trying to beat it but it's impossible. Please fix it
 
Fwiw, if I am connecting the dots right, this runs deep. So much so that I didn't even try.

There was a series of many vids covering it, from this

Somewhere in the middle, they cover secret rooms and levels in the arcade.

Trauma Drama is another Arcade Game which doesn’t belong to the magenta mystery - it rewards you with an outfit and an apartment deco. After release there was an easy way to cheese the highscore to get theses rewards but it got patched pretty fast what makes them nearly impossible to get in its current state… that’s why people ask for a nerf either in mechanic or highscore you need to reach ^^

the vids you linked are about the arasaka arcade which do belong to the mystery but are not related or relevant to this thread topic :)

they are two different arcades, there is even a third one (horse racing) which also rewards an outfit, which I personally haven’t touched yet tho… because non of my Vs want to look like a cowboy/girl xD

I died once, so I should've managed over 460000 but oh well.

Honestly it's mostly just a practice makes perfect thing. Identify what you keep sucking at, then practice at not sucking at those things.

But also what @SirMaxinmus said about "clearing most of the enemies" is really important. I found I had to edge forwards bit by bit because enemies often spawn behind you and if you rush too quickly you can easily miss them. Plus certain enemies just race across the screen unless you shoot them down quick enough.
 
Is there any way to beat it with ease? I keep dying and at this point, I am convinced the only way to beat is by cheating, or changing the information in the game files so you CAN win! To the 17 remaining Developers on this game. PLEASE FIX IT!

lt’s meant to be hard though ;) It’s not as if it’s required to progress in the main story or anything.

It ain’t broke, so it doesn’t need fixing.

Maybe explain what, specifically, you’re finding challenging? What are you weak at?

ALL OF IT! One shot= instant death!
