Picked up weapons do not show in inventory

[Grand Orbiter]

I just looted the "Buzzsaw" iconic SMG and it did not appear in my inventory. Ever since the last update and starting my new game it only randomly has some of the guns that I have picked up from looting.

This is game breaking, the Buzzsaw is an iconic that I wanted right out of the gate and now. since I've looted it and its not in my inventory, it is seemingly lost forever.

Severely aggravating. I have stopped playing CP77 until further notice. This game ran great before dogtown.

You got the blueprint for it, check your crafting section. There are a lot of iconics that do this.
I had the same issue with the Comrade pistol, check each tier in crafting.

Unless i'm mistaken you find a Buzzsaw crafting recipe. Not the actual weapon. Check the crafting section.

Ok, fair, didn't check that out, but what about all the other guns I looted and verified that they did not show in my inventory? That's a huge loss of creds as I go ripping across NC.

Furthermore, I've yet to check but I suspect there are other looted items not showing up as well.

Many of the guns you can pickup are "broken". In such a case you just get crafting materials.

Is this just a new mechanic then? So strange

Yes, i believe its meant to replace the whole auto scrap function and most of the random loot that could be scrapped before (we still have some random loot that can, as far as i can tell, only be sold for cash, but its way less then before).

Yes was added in 2.0 with the loot changes. Lot of the weapons are broken when you pick them up and you get crafting mats instead.

Thanks Tamika and Garatgh. Guess I'm chippin' in after all.

You have to craft it in your inventory > crafting
