Cyberpunk 2077 is finally getting a fully functional metro system, so you can ride around Night City in style

The rideable NCART train, with five lines and 19 stations, will be added as part of the upcoming 2.1 patch.

This is a bit off topic, but I wanted to share it anyway:

Recently I got Cyberpunk 2077. I like the setting, I am a big fan of dystopian future. I am also a little radical about public transport in real life. I love to use it, I hate handling cars, I hate looking for parking.

One of the mayor things I noticed playing CP77 was the lack of public transport. I haven’t played a triple A ever and was surprised by the amount of NPCs. Everything felt so right in Night City. Urgency, dirtiness, people everywhere. Now it is coming with the next update. Thinking about it makes me not want to use the in-game car. It just pops up (hardly any waiting involved, weird) and you cannot really park it anywhere. It is just as useless as real life cars, handling is bad (maybe I am a bad driver but still). I love it. Yes, I can fast travel, but for immersion it is great.

    Night city is unironically more walkable than many cities I’ve been in. Many footbridges, wide sidewalks, and well defined crosswalks.

      I think another reason it’s often more enjoyable to walk, besides driving being quite hard, is that you’re always stuck in traffic.

      Cities in games like (unmodded) GTA, in part due to system limitations, were often comparitively empty. Which inevitably makes driving far easier and more enjoyable.

      Cyberpunk has relatively(!!!) realistic levels of traffic, so you’re far more likely to get stuck in a traffic jam. That’s also why a lot of people enjoy riding the bikes more, because you can more easily lane split.
