Every time I get into my car, Maelstrom spawn and kill me.

[The Zone]

So, I decided to wait until 2.1 to finish my 2nd playthrough of the game. I'm at the point where you go outside of Lizzie's bar to look for Evelyn at the Clouds.

But every bloody time I go into my car to drive there, a car with Maelstrom spawn and shoot me dead.

I tried to enter a different car and they didn't spawn. But, curious about what was happening, I drove away from Lizzie's bar, called my car, entered it and Maelstrom spawned again.

What the hell is going on that makes it so every time I enter my car, a car with Maelstrom spawns and kills me?

EDIT: Tested it around a bit, seems to be every car, its as if the whole area became hostile. I've still got a pistol and a katana and the bastards have machine guns and katanas.
What the hell? Either my save broke or something because this isn't normal. I did play the game back when 1.5 came out so things might have changed, but if this intentional then it's sh1t.

Interesting! I haven't had a single gang attack me with their car.

You need to get into a vehicle yourself.

SAME..!
It is soooo annoying! I've tried everything. Even a reinstall and nothing fixes it.
It's def made the game unplayable for me. I ain't playing this sh*t till they fix this.

to the people who are question if this is condemnable, i suggest you find someone who has this problem and try playing the game. You'll understand exactly what we're saying.

The bug has made the game basically not have any usable vehicles.

Somehow destroyed the car of Maelstrom, drove to another district and immediately another car attacked me.
Really not sure how after all this time an update comes out taking 2 steps forward and a huge back-flip backwards.

So you're condemning the entire patch because of one problem you experience that you don't like? Just like when a game is released any game patches are the same they release them and then it takes two or three days to go in and adjust gameplay to fit bug's and people's complaints as much as possible. Something like this she'd always be expected it's in every game every patch every time.

I suggest you find someone who has this problem and try playing the game. You'll understand exactly what we're saying. it's absolutely unplayable. unless you want Cyberpunk: Walking Simulator.

Found one! You! ;)

Why don't you, or one of the other guys having that problem, provide a save file? I'd be very interested to experience the problem myself.

Yeah. Go look at the thread "gang attacks are annoying." This is legitimately the worst part of 2.1.

it's actually the best part for me, makes the city feel alive

i sometimes i wonder if i make the wrong choice by playing the game as a decent person who doesn't piss everyone off at every opportunity. it appears i made the correct choice

[orcaa]

the gang attacks you because you killed some of their members....who knew actions had affects.
So run away or fight them.

For me I'm getting annoyed because it's like 2 or 3 cars and their all elites inside with a skull icon above their heads, so spongy as ♥♥♥♥, all doing their BS matrix thing with their scissor legs and arms (I din't even know they had that type of douche bags). To make it even more annoying, the cops always shows up, but to join "THEM" with the bs, even though the gangs are on to me because I do those dispatch missions.


It's like the game doesn't want me to play it, and it sucks because after this patch, the game finally became somewhat enjoyable, driving still sucks but everything else seems much better from controls to fps to graphics...Just those over and over spawning D-bags are starting to get annoying

I am having this problem too..

This kind of coping is EXACTLY why the game has almost as many bugs as it did when it first came out. Every single time I spawn and enter my vehicle, combat begins out of nowhere. This is a bug, plain and simple. And one that would have been ironed out had CDPR not been doing what they've been doing since Day 1 which is to rush and save face as much as possible without addressing the many many many many issues that deserve fixing before any more money making tactics (DLC/Ultimate Edition bullcrap) are put into place

Here to say I'm having this issue. I'm going to do the BD at for Evelyn and getting in a vehicle just spawns maelstrom on me with no hope of escape and then the police come and add more to the mix. Driving away doesn't seem to do anything. I came back to give this game a chance finally and get hit with this game breaker.

A save file would be nice to see what's going on / possibly provide some assistance.

I'm dying by getting shot up whilst being in my car and even exiting out of the car to fight the Maelstrom (at my level/gear) isn't really working out.
Last time I played I managed to drive to a different district only to get attacked by a different gang not even a minute in.
The thing that is currently wrong with the game is the spawn rate of car gang attacks. If you never enter a vehicle its basically like the game used to be. But the moment you enter a vehicle, a car gang attack will happen which makes playing the start of the game impossible or at the very least unenjoyable.

I've resigned that I'm going to finish the game after CDPR, hopefully, fixes it.

This is typically only an issue if you are playing the game on an old save, because the factors contributing to gang attacks are effectively triggering all at once. On a fresh playthrough it would be much more organic.

I started my game completely new this morning. Last tim I played the game was 11 months ago - now wanted to play with new Addon and patch.
Was fun til I finished the mission to get the Bot from Maelstrom guys - that first from Dex.
Killed all inside.
Just got out - every time I use a car almost instantly two cars with enemies attack me.

This alone wouldnt be that annoying but three of the 5/6 enemies are shown as "too strong". I managed to kill one with almost hundred bullets from an assault gun. I dont wanna try 50 times or more to kill random enemies cause I just followed the game IN THE BEGINNING!

The game forces me to not use a vehicle. Whats the point in giving me already one?

This is the worst kind of balance. Make random enemies not absurdly too strong, especially when they directly attack me when I do a standard thing like getting in my car.
This should be really not hard to let those kind of enemies spawn without being too strong.

So now I have to redo the mission and do another way I sponaniously wanted. And maybe... I still got the problem even if I have a completely different result from this mission.
