Other option would be to buy games / the game @GOG and just tell the client to never update automaticly.

If you are on Steam...Set Steam not to auto update for Cyberpunk, play game direct off Game exe in the interim - easy.
I was still on 1.6.1 until I made the leap (with 130+mods) to 2.0 and PL

I am on steam. Will I still get achievements if I do this?

Go to your STEAM\steamapps forlder, find appmanifest_1091500.acf
Open it with Wordpad
Find a "LastOwner" line and create a new one underneath by pressing Enter
Put in "UpdateResult" "0"
Close and save the file.

Shoulld work for a while until Steam decides to update that file with new update search result. Just repeat process in that case and reboot Steam. This worked for me when I downgraded from 2.01 to 2.0.

You do not. Launching the game this way completely bypasses steam.

I just checked and it is this way by default. Maybe because I installed mods via vortex?

I just checked and it's already like this by default. Maybe because I installed mods via vortex?

most likely because Steam already searched for an update and there is none (obviously). It will seach again and will find 2.02 when it releases. By adding this value back in it will turn blind to the update for some time (usually a day or so). Just disable auto-update for 2077 and when it will be available just make the change to the file I mentioned.

No, it is essentially an Offline mode - no achievements or hours recorded - but the idea is that it is temporary until mod authors get a chance to update the key mods - can take up to a week for what will likely be a minor update. For me, I don't really care about achievements, so I was happy to stay offline until PL dropped..

Just to confirm the executable we are talking about is bin>x64>Cyberpunk2077.exe
NOT the REDprelauncher.exe in the games root directory
I only mention this to help prevent others from accidentally running the game with the first executable they find and ending up causing the update they are trying to avoid.

make the app manifest readable only

Go to your steam game and click properties and betas, and redownload the 2.13 update. Then wait for a few of the big mods to get updated (if they haven't already) to 2.2.
