Update:
As it turns out, Patch Update 1.1 was allegedly supposed to fix another game-breaking mission bug but it turns out, that wasn’t the case. As users on Reddit were quick to point out, the mission quests involving Deamain aren’t fixed at all, and there appears to be a fresh new variation of the Takemura quest bug when taking calls for him.
“The Delamain missions are NOT fixed! Running 1.1 on Series X, still no calls from Delamain when entering area or approaching the cabs, no triggered events when approaching the parked or driving in circle cabs. Scanning them does nothing. I’ve tried different save files, different cab sub-missions, cycled system a couple of times, tried with mission being actively selected or not… I was really hoping for this one, especially when seeing the release notes. But this is just ugh… I mean, why be hopeful anymore at this point for any new patches?” – /user/jannikolaas
“Not sure if this is a new bug or not but when takemura calls for down on the street he just sits there and his dialogue doesn’t start.” – /user/Titanium_Jaw_Guy
“Just loaded the 1.1 patch and have experienced my first game breaking issue. When the game loads takemura calls immediately (i am guessing bc of the down on the street mission, in my game i am waiting on the second call) and does not say anything. I cant interact with anyone, fast travel, bring up call menu, etc. I tried skipping time and loading multiple saves. Still have the same issue. Anyone else experience this problem?” – /user/Dangerous_Doctor_114
At this point in time, it is hard to figure out just where things are going wrong. On one hand, many users are suggesting that this is typical with programming in that fixing one issue can result in the creation of many more, but on the other hand we can’t help but wonder why CDPR is so quick to push out updates that feel as though QA never got involved. And while any thoughts surrounding how such an easily found bug could have gotten past so many eyes and hands of the devs, testers, and QA are up for debate, one thing for sure is certain – CDPR has their work cut out for them if they are ever going to try to win back their fans and dig themselves out of such a monumentally disastrous hole.
