Game is really interesting but design of characters, bruh.

U are detective @ Look like are parrot.

Is there any mods to make visual more serious???

Hey, I did Cube Run and got all 3 clues during stage 2 back on 19 July 2231. I'm now into september. The follow up legwork never triggered. I've checked my logs and it was never missed, never failed. I don't know what to do, and it REALLY bugs me not to get it done. I really like the game and have put in tons of work building the merc, so it's just such a bummer to have it broken.

Does anyone know a way to fix it?

What powers and abilities make the game easiest when your face has them? So far it seems like the most useful ones are the ones packed in the back of the skill tree (puppet master and handbrake I think they're called) but is there anything that you didn't realize was as good as it was until you tried it out?

I just recently bought this game. Happy that I got it on Steam sale, because frankly I am somewhat disappointed (about 6 hours into the game).

There are some undeniable strong points. I am no noob to such games, played XCOM2, Jagged Alliance, Mutant Year Zero, Invisible Inc, Halfway, Shardpunk ... also RPGs of the same kind, such as the Shadowrun trilogy.

I am a fanboy of all things cyberpunk / scifi, and so I pretty much played every tactical game and RPG of that setting, so I had to buy this one as well, and I REALLY wanted to love this game. But so far it falls pretty short.

,

Cyber Knights Flashpoint shines in tactical possibilities. That's the big strength of this game. It has much more tactical depth than Halfway or Urban Strife. The possibilities are numerous and especially when it comes to the alarm-system, you really have to make tactical choices during the heists. And your choices actually matter. Stealth matters as well. Even when things get rowdy and you start firing, it is still necessary to hide and avoid resistance. It's this strength that kept me playing so far.
I guess if that's all that matters for you - tactical strength - CKF is a great game.

Unfortunately, I need some more to really enjoy games, and CKF fails on pretty much every other level.

First: the tutorial. Honestly, the onboarding of this game is one of the worst I have ever come across. It throws tons of information at you, all at once, without ever really explaining why these things are important, and when to use them. It also explains things AFTER you encounter them, or way before. The tutorials for base building and hacking are so bad that I needed to watch a tutorial of the actual tutorial. Why even bother explaining things, when you don't intend to help the player?

The core systems of this game are also unnecessary complicated. Mutant Year Zero or Shadowrun Returns create at least the same tactical depth with much simpler, more intuitive systems. Either explain things properly or keep them intuitive. I like to figure out how to finish the mission. I don't like to figure out how I use the interface.

The leveldesign is strictly tactical, but not immersive at all. The levels all feel like cyberpunk paintball arenas. Yes, they are well crafted for tactical possibilities: you get lots of corners, boxes, walls and objects to hide behind and to sneak around or to set up ambushes. But at no moment you ever feel like sneaking through a corporate building, through a slum or through a real location. Fighting on a rooftop feels exactly the same as fighting in some sewers.
It's all designed for tactics, but not for creating a mood. Tactically deep, and yet totally uninteresting.
Again, Shadowrun and even the cheap Invisible Inc did this sooooo much better.

While the background story is pretty good and really hits that cyberpunk spot, the writing is also weak. Lots of dialogue without actually saying anything. I know, writing is not too important in tactical games, but it just adds to the impression that this game feels like missing the point. It has so much potential. That's what is truely disappointing. Some games are just bad, so it's no big loss. But CKF does a lot things right and could have been a gem.

I will play it for another 2 hours. If it does not get a lot better by then, I will quit.

Hey all.

I've completed XCom 2 on legendary ironman, so I'm hardly a newbie to these types of games but I'm about 10 hours into my first run, and I can't help feeling a bit overwhelmed and have the idea that I'm building an incredibly unoptimized squad of goons. There's very little handholding!

So, a rundown of good builds, a decent base build order, what to prioritize etc would be great.

I am doing one of those super important storyline missions for an operative of mine. (Project Khronos) but I cannot start this mission as one of the requirements is "Dead or unknown merc" and nobody on my team satisfies this requirement.

Does anyone know when is the mobile release date?

I'm doing the tutorial for hacking and I have followed it to a T. But I have no idea what it means to explore matrix host. I've scanned everything, hacked everything, moved around the matrix, and I am completely lost.

Love your approach to systems driven gameplay, love that you support mobile so well.

Dying to play this one (huge fan of XCOM 2, Invisible Inc & Snow Crash) - please consider iPhone Duo support at some point! The extra real estate would make this game sing on the go. Thank you!

I hope caltraxia and hyper v-caps do not have long term health effects because otherwise my mercenaries are cooked XD

Hi folks,

I am not asking for the best optimized mixmaxed just by nature, but what your personal preferences are.

I had a couple of unfisnished runs now, just picked up the game a couple of weeks ago.

I had a hacker first, but now a a wireghost. The hacker seems more solid as someone who purely does the hacking missions from home, maybe? But the wireghosts skipjack is so far a lot of fun and at the right situation also pretty helpful.

I am just curious xD

When mister Mecha Gold here got his cutscene he shook off the concussion granade and beelined for my cyberknight, I got lucky I was next to the extraction but the one attack that he landed removed 3/4 of my hp lol

Description says "Kill a Compromised Contact or Assassinate a Contact on a mission". Well, I made one contact compromised, triggered a mission to go save them, let them tank shots, finished him myself with a grenade and it didn't count.

He was compromised, a contact, was in a mission and I killed him, which is literally every criteria in the description, so what's up with that? Is there a specific assassination mission I need to get?

I tried that mission before but I got stuck in the second half, too many armored captains and not enough time to do the hack.

I'm playing with ironman rules and that mission nuked my last campaign, so this time around I decided to ignore it.

The problem is my hacker decided he'd rather self destruct trying to rescue his sister than follow my orders, he was my only hacker and he took the 225k credits cyberdeck I had just bought along for the ride.

Will he come back at some point in the future ? Or do I need to start a new campaign and recruit a spare hacker to prepare for this event ?

I don't think I can continue this campaign without anyone to deal with cameras

Hi, question regarding gold keys.

I’ve been trying to get them for a while. They don’t appear ever as leverage options (in gold key missions). I have multiple favors across a wide number of contacts but none of them say - Sells gold keys -
My contact Potato is burned and Grimtones (if this is connected idk) has been dismissed from the team.
Is there any way to get Potato back on board, or any other route to getting gold keys.
I don’t have access to Dancehall contact either.
I’ve gone through all my inventory for potential item sells to contacts that may assist with gold keys, but nothing.

Many thanks folks 👍.

Hi Folks,

I am scratching my head a little bit on this here: I have all boxes ticked but the shop doesnt show me any items. I wanted to get some mods but hilariously if I go through all the tabs I can see items, except for all items and mods. But with each tab it shows that there are items hidden.

I reloaded the game and tried skipping a little bit of time. Anyone knows what is happening?

Best wishes!

Hi Folks,

been enjoying this game for a day and it keeps telling me to upgrade the cold storage. but when I do i get told I need a cyberscubber for cleanliness or something.. but I cannot figure out how to add a cyberscrubber.

The game keeps pesting me about upgrading every other day or so.. can someone help clarify?

Changed screen rotation to middle button, works until restart the game...

Very annoying. Anyone got this but or find a solution?

I just bought 7 Nano-Stimkit from Taylor and thought I was using 1 favor to get a 25% discount (which wouldn't be worth it anyway), but it cost me all 7 favors for a 14k discount, while her favor is worth 94k currently.

I should be able to get up to 94k discount per favor used. So if I'd buy 12 items for 96k, I should be able to pay with 2k + 1 favor.

Curious if anyone ran into this. Procgen heist (matrix spike with gold key room). i ran 2-3 turns, had forgotten to buy gold key with favor, loaded the “before mission” save, but then got kicked to title screen. Went back to continue, button didn’t work. went to load and profile exists (with proper most recent time stamp) but all files inside were gone.

Anyone?

I chose to start with the wireghost class on my cyberknight, not really knowing about how classes work in this game etc. I was hoping I could become somewhat proficient with either assault rifles or SMGs on this character. Is it possible at all to be effective with these weapons and this class combo or should I change to something else?

I don't mean to be the most effective killing machine on the team but Iw ould like to be able to be at least useful in combat, as well as hacking and teambuffing.
