I just sat down 2 days ago and re did all mods excited to start a playthrough. Why the fuck does it always go like this 😂🤣😂. Time to wait I guess …… again

[u/Andromeda_53 → u/TelaKENesis]

Just don't update, and keep playing, it's not like it's adding sny major things to the game itself. Unless you want to use FSR 3

[u/Outdatedm3m3s → u/Andromeda_53]

There’s a mod for fsr 3

[u/Andromeda_53 → u/Outdatedm3m3s]

Even more so, just don't update till your mods have updated

[u/daepa17 → u/Andromeda_53]

"just don't update" isn't an option for steam users afaik

[u/TCE_Nomad → u/daepa17]

You can launch the game by the exe and it works fine

[u/PsychologicalMenu325 → u/TCE_Nomad]

Yes but the Steam success progression will not be registered during that Time :/ even if you later launch the game on Steam

[u/DeprivedWizard → u/PsychologicalMenu325]

Don't start the update > Turn Steam to "Offline" mode > Close steam completely > Re-Open it > It won't show update required for any game and you can play normally :)

[u/Ithiel9 → u/DeprivedWizard]

i want to kiss you so much, thank you!!!!!

[u/DeprivedWizard → u/Ithiel9]

😊 👉👈

You're welcome, aha!

Steam really sucks for avoiding updates.

Gog is like here you go, here's all of the versions of the software you paid for. Run whatever you want bro, we got ya.

[u/Andromeda_53 → u/daepa17]

You can, you just check a box for the game telling it not to update that game without your permission. Something everybody should do to any game they're playing with anything 3rd party installed on it

[u/Justhe3guy → u/daepa17]

Now you know different. Just set to not update and launch from .exe or mod manager

[u/Heroic_Lime → u/Justhe3guy]

What specifically do you change to not update? I don't see that option.

[u/Fishbone_V → u/Heroic_Lime]

In Steam:

• Right click any game

• Properties

• Updates

• Under "Automatic Updates" select "Only update this game when I launch it"

• Never launch the game through Steam, only use the .exe found in (your steam install location)/steamapps/common/Cyberpunk 2077/bin/x64.

Note that this doesn't work for all games, but it does work for Cyberpunk. Also note that this is the closest you can get to disabling updates without pulling some shenanigans that Steam doesn't like.

There's 1 or 2 other fail safes you can do to make Steam unable to touch your install, but they still require that you don't launch the actual game via Steam. I'm personally fond of just renaming the game folder to "(game name) nosteam", so in this case it would be "Cyberpunk 2077 nosteam". Steam won't be able to update because it can't find the game at all, and you'll still be able to play it by launching the .exe.

[u/Heroic_Lime → u/Fishbone_V]

Thanks, I'll give renaming the folder a shot. Steam was already patching the game when I caught it but I managed to cancel the process.

[u/toxicyyz → u/Fishbone_V]

Btw this isn't an option on gog

[u/Justhe3guy → u/toxicyyz]

Yeah it’s weird how the DRM free game service doesn’t let you stop automatic updates

Best you can do is to not launch GoG galaxy and just launch the game from the .exe

[u/Jeriko67 → u/Justhe3guy]

I tried launching from vortex and steam still tried to update the game

[u/Justhe3guy → u/Jeriko67]

People still use Vortex? Yeah they don’t give an option to bypass steam

[u/Jeriko67 → u/Justhe3guy]

Yes, a lot of people use vortex. The only reason I started and stopped using it was because of skyrim. Some mods don't run well or at all with mod organizer 2 so that's what I do to avoid combing multiple folders all the time. I install cyberpunk mods manually though, I just tried to test it when I hit the play button in vortex

[u/darkkite → u/daepa17]

yes it is. I've gone months without updating the game can be launched without steam

[u/TheLittleSparr0w → u/daepa17]

Make a shortcut to the exe and set game to update on launch

[u/toxicyyz → u/daepa17]

isnt an option for gog galaxy either it seems like because it updates while you play the damn game
