tl;dr

  • DLSS
  • Faster storage - MicroSD Express which is ~4-9x faster than regular MicroSD (max ~985MB/s read and ~950MB/s write)
  • 30fps cap in quality mode, or 40fps in performance mode (at 720p on the console or 1080p when docked and using a TV with 120Hz refresh rate).

I wonder what the quality is like compared to PC.

I have no issue getting 60 fps on my Steam Deck except in the newer DLC area. I want to say I’m at medium settings as far as graphics go.

Wow I didn't expect that it'd be possible to get 60fps on Steam Deck.

I've played through the Xbox Series X version of Cyberpunk 2077 twice and it ran well, but I've been interested in getting the PC version to try some mods. My desktop PC is quite old, since I don't really do any PC gaming any more and it's sufficient for everything else that I do (mainly coding). I've got a Steam Deck though!

I pulled out my Steam Deck just now to confirm because I wanted to be sure I’m being accurate.

But yeah, on low, I was able to get up to 60 but it looks like now I’m getting high 50 fps on low settings. But I remember getting 60 at some point because I remember being surprised and amazed it could handle that and for specific amounts of time! I’m wondering if a new update may have changed this. This was prior to their update with ray tracing when I was getting 60 fps.

On medium settings, I’m getting high 40 fps running about the city and even in combat. Still pretty and very stable looking at these frames.

This is all outside of the DLC area, where I got much less before.

The Steam Deck is an amazing device! The fact it can generate these results at all is pretty amazing. I’m curious how it compares to the Switch 2 in this. It will be interesting to see someone do a direct comparison between the two.

Like saying they got it to work on any platform/console when it originally released. Wait until the Switch 2 is out before saying that game works.

[–] Skyline969@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Maybe I’m insane, but I would get a Switch 2 for a portable Cyberpunk that’s not running at a crazily fluctuating framerate. We’ll wait and see how it goes.

[–] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Might run better on a steam deck tbh

[–] Goretantath@lemm.ee -1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I thought it was also on switch 1? Though it ran like shit.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 1 week ago

No, but it was on PS4 and Xbone when they couldn't really handle it.
