On Monday, March 29th, 2021, after a long wait, CD Projekt released the huge patch 1.2 for Cyberpunk 2077. The huge patch notes for the update contain hundreds of fixed bugs and game errors.
Our test of the huge update shows that the developers are far from the end of Patch 1.2 – numerous players are currently reporting a multitude of new problems, some of which are quite strange.
Sandstorms and other strange bugs
In the past few days, reports from cyberpunk fans who have come across new bugs since the big update have been increasing on Reddit. Fortunately, as the numerous videos show, these are not plot stoppers like broken quests, but rather errors from the cabinet of curiosities.
For example, one player shows problems with dynamic weather changes. With him, Patch 1.2 is said to have shot his save state so that Night City is now in one permanent sandstorm is trapped and how Mexico in American films looks like:
