### Issue Description (Required): Holy Heresy batman. This game has been out for years and has horrible servers, is poorly optimized if at all optimized, game is mandatory multiplayer, the balance is wack as warp and the microtransactions are ridiculous. Its actually insane that Fatshark charges money for this. Every time Im at the character screen it takes at least 2 tries to connect. Then after each mission i get booted back to the character screen. As if that’s not enough the game runs horribly. I have played very intensive games but this is ridiculous. im on the lowest settings i can set the game to. And it would be fine if there was a single player mode that turned down the amount of enemies or something. But no you have to play online, and if no one joins your squad you have bots who barely know what their gun is. Speaking of which lets talk balance, assuming you’ve read this far means you know the word and understand it. So why do 90% of specialist drain all of my health while im in coherency and actively using traits that regen my armor. Some horde fights are fairly simple while others will down half the team. not only that but Trappers are complete bullshark. We should at bare minimum get a sound cue that they are near, and a DBD skill check or button mash or something to get ourselves out of the trap. My last gripe with balance here is with the miniboss daemon guy. He is total bullshark. Yes you can go around him and avoid the fight but ive had him spawn on top of me. And when hes agro he hard targets one team member, downs them, then insta kills them. Thats not fair. And lastly the microtransactions wouldn’t be so bad if there were more earnable cosmetics. Or better yet the DLC characters getting more than 5 pieces of gear. I main Arbite, i get slightly more seals and the color red. nothing else unless i pay money, even then. theres like one set. Not to mention some DLC character specfic weapons only have one variant. like the arbites shock maul is just one mark, the stubber and shield is only one mark. WHY?! Why do the extra money $20 characters have worse customization than base guys. How this game even runs let alone has a consistent player base is beyond me. I’m fine with infrequent content updates. Hell I used to be a Destiny 2 player. But with that little coming out you’d think a game studio could at the least FIX THE GAME! Unironically I had less technical issues playing launch Cyberpunk and launch Starfield than i have YEARS after this games release. ---

I have to chime in with my story about cyberpunk’s release build. I was walking around night city at a low level and I heard tons of screeching metal, screaming and angry shouting going on near a highway. I went over to see what the hell was going on and I saw an absolute horror show of cars that were off of their “track” and were scraping against the highway wall, all of which were associating the damage their vehicle was taking to me, the player.. then someone’s car detonated and the driver died, next thing I knew cops associated me with the murder and were trying to kill me. 10/10 ---

Oi! I played the release version of Cyberpunk and the game left me with a lasting impression. You will LIKE free (and some paid) cosmetics with their colour and patterns which wouldn’t be even chosen to be a 1980s sofa upholstery fabric. ---
