So the game has several ways of limiting ram/vram usage. One of them is reducing the number of models held in memory, and this can cause a lot of duplicate NPCs. Another way is recycling old dynamic textures, which sometimes could lead to advertisements having the speedometer readings, but that may be fixed now. Out of curiosity, how much VRAM do you have, and are your video settings pushing things close to the limit?

Pretty sure this is done on purpose in the afterlife. A bunch of different NPC’s with identical hair and clothes. But it’s a nod to Poser Gangs from CP RED.

I have a mod that increases the amount of npc variations. Works well……….
Except when i did heroes last night and Gustavo was hanging out with Martha, whilst Martha was paying respect to Jackie, all the while Martha was sitting at the table behind Gustavo 🙃

For the 3rd time V we are not triplets we’re one person.

I like to imagine this is an actual problem in NC; like people can’t stop impersonating each other, surely that’s a problem with all the cybernetics and stuff
It happened a lot a few updates before, but it shouldn’t now. Depends also on your hardware and crowd density option. I remember playing Kerry’s concert and looking into the same 5 faces over and over, even in front of the club were triplets.. After 2.0 it never happened again to me, so this should be an exception.

Yeah except it’s two dudes you have to fight that claims they’re one person.

Whenever I see a bunch of repeat npcs, I just headcanon that those are the cheaper end full body mods people can get.

Ah, I know this place, Mohawks Meetup takes place there. It’s a meetup of mohawks.

Ya it happens to me a lot. Especially with pedestrians I’ll see the same one 2-3 times a few steps away from each other. Once I saw a group of a dozen or more of the same guys sitting at some tables. I thought I crashed a convention

Happens if VRAM is pretty stressed, if you’ve been playing for a pretty long time/session, try doing a fresh restart and reload. Should help.
It does happen a little, but it’s always more comical to me than annoying. Personal opinion I know.
What, they’re just triplets. IVF in the year 2077 be wildin’
All too often
Yeah, it’s pretty funny.
Once I found 7 npcs at the megabuilding entrance.

In Cyberpunk 2077? Doable.

It’s a glitch in the matrix.

It’s a relic failure 😁

I keep running into this myself.
