Craft away to you heart’s content!

Hotfix 1.06 cyberslid downCyberpunk 2077’s cyberchimney overnight, smashing a tiny handful of bugs including one important one: the problem ofsave files becoming corruptedif they hit 8MB in size. Pass that limit, and boosh, your save is gone, unrecoverable. This really only affected people who did a lot of crafting, but sure did suck for them. So now it’s fixed.

Along with tweaks to make the console version crash less, thehotfix 1.06 patch noteslist two things relevant to us on PC:

As someone whose save file is up over 5MB long before the end of the game (I’ve been doing a lot of side-stuff, and a fair bit of crafting), I had been getting concerned. Good to see it fixed. Hopefully people who were butting against the limit have a safe save they can fall back on, seeing as corrupted ones can’t be recovered.

You might think it’s a niche issue but if you’re investing anything into crafting, you probably should go hard on it. It takes a whole lot of skill points, time, and creation to make the feature worthwhile, encouraging players to make a squillion items so they can reach gear actually worth using. Just another way this game’s loot system is busted, tedious, and–worst of all–unfashionable.
