One is caused by your hardware and the other is due to poor quality of your internet connection. If you experience sluggishness, delay in responses to controls, or stuttering, you have lag in that game. Lag is a descriptive term used in the gaming community to refer to performance slowdown or unresponsiveness of a game. If you are looking forward to fix lag on your own machine, then take a look below. In this troubleshooting guide, we’ll explain what lag is, its causes, and the solutions that you can do to fix it. One of the common issues that PC gamers experience is in-game lag and many Cyberpunk 2077 players are already complaining about it.

I was stuck at 92% and had 60GB of free space.įorce kill all GOG/Cyberpunk processes running in Task Manager.

It's caused by not having enough free space on the SSD/HDD. When in doubt, always open Resource Monitor and check the Disk tab, you will see Read Write is being highly active, because the gog patcher is actually decompressing and modifying files. It also reduces the load on the server, allowing more people to be served quicker. If you have shitty internet or a limited bandwidth, you might prefer this over re-downloading 50gb worth of files. Meaning though you download 500mb, applying it will mean it then modifies 50gb worth of files locally. Saw a post on Twitter claiming the patches are small in size because they update existing files. It's now two hours later, still 'Applying patches, 61%'.Īnything I can do to speed this up?
