      Writing the code doesn’t make it not dogshit.

      It’s a dumpster fire concept with no redeeming qualities.

        Ok, we’ve gone from “can’t be done” to “it can be done but will be shit”.

        I’m going to side with CDPR, since they’ve made a bunch of decent games and you’ve … Actually I don’t know. How many games have you made? Share some links and I’ll spend hard cash on them.

          “It’s hard to code” was never an argument made. It’s not remotely difficult to implement in any way. The entire point was always that it’s an actively anti-fun mechanic. I’m not sure why you’re arguing to Cyberpunk’s authority when they’ve shown absolutely no interest in the insane, ridiculously user hostile bullshit you’re advocating.

          Their expertise (which they straight up don’t have for multiplayer lol) is irrelevant when discussing a feature that is literally impossible for anyone to make enjoyable for any reasonable player. “Let’s replicate lag spikes, but on purpose” is a completely unhinged suggestion.
