Make Realistic Combat Overhaul a default difficulty mode in the game

[Still]

CDPR has been awesome about adding quality of life stuff to the game and seemingly getting inspiration from mods (vehicle combat, better throwing knives, etc). If there's one more mod it needs to add, it's the combat overhaul. This changes the combat to more visceral, one-shot kill, less bullet spunge, more like a tactical shooter like Tarkov, Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, Sniper Ghost Warrior, etc. where one head shot means death (I know cybernetics are supposed to add armor to the skull or whatever but it feels bad.) Anyway, if you want proof just how important this mod is for some people, check out the comments: https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/1908?tab=posts

The game is almost unplayable without this mod for a lot of people. Anyway, would be great to have this in the game so the game is less like Borderlands and more like Tarkov, Ghost Recon, etc..

If you have realistic combat and one shot kills etc, then what is the purpose of skill trees, cyberware, perks etc if you're going to kill an enemy in 1-3 shots. That's the purpose of having tankier enemies is to actually play the build you are going for.

No idea but it's a lot more fun

It's nice when you snipe someone and they actually get snipe'd, etc. Or when you want to get precise with your pistol in close quarters and it's like John Wick. That' s fun.

Just use a trainer and do 1 hit kills. I agree with the other person, its an RPG not Call of Duty.

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint has a similar skill tree and it has the same mechanics. You don't have to agree or use the difficulty setting.

A trainer isn't as good.

Sniping is lame. Pick up a LMG and go to town.

you could also play on normal difficulty. harder difficulty means harder enemies. play on normal and one shot everything.

Breakpoint is nothing like this game.

Kinda big issues atm

Terrible idea. Who wants to go around just one shoting everything? Not me and I think a lot of people are in the same camp. I want a fair challenge not super easy mode. Realism =/= fun

It's not easy, it's a lot harder when the enemies do the same damage back at you. It means you have to slowly work your way through and think tactically, using cover and not just running around through crowds blasting.

I completely agree, but I still understand people who want to get a headshot and kill everyone, it makes the game more 'aesthetic' to play, but well if Cyberpunk was like that, there's no need to have a build, upgrade your character and some things like that !

I think everyone is overthinking it or caring too much their own playstyle. I would like a hardcore mode with deadly damage that goes both ways. Gives a more tactical feel.

I recommend checking out nexus for damage mods.

after all its your game. Mod it as you please.

Yes, that is a problem with using mods.

A problem that could've been avoided if they had designed the game around more realistic shooting mechanics from the start rather than this RPG crap.

But... the game has been an RPG since launch, things haven't changed from one update to another, the game has always had RPG elements.

lmao, what's happening with people these days
