CDPR gave #Cyberpunk2077 a new #SteamDeck setting but they totally broke it and it does not give the expected performance, as it seems it’s just a copy/paste of Ultra for now.
*New Update*: After some more fun investigating, the Steam Deck preset definitely doesn’t work right. By itself, it sets High+Ultra but it’s more than that.
Going from Medium to Steam Deck and running the benchmark, it gave a higher performance than my video.
Reloading the game, it then says it’s preset to Ultra. So I set it to Steam Deck again and run benchmark to see really low performance. Then I set it to Low, go back to the menu, then back in and set again to Steam Deck and run then benchmark again, and it’s the best performance I’ve seen yet.
Cyberpunk seems to grab onto what preset you had last for Steam Deck, and any restart when you’ve set to Steam Deck seems to jack it back up to Ultra. So, the Steam Deck preset is definitely broken which is why other videos may show a different performance or visuals.
Low: 46.31 average FPS
Swapping Low to Steam Deck: 46.26 average FPS
Medium: 36.72 average FPS
Swapping Medium to Steam Deck: 36.30 average FPS
High: 28.39 average FPS
Swapping High to Steam Deck: 28.11 average FPS
Go back to even just the menu after going through the presets and setting Steam Deck, then back into the benchmark: 22.07 average FPS as it seems to default Steam Deck preset to High+Ultra. Saw the same behaviour on desktop too.

If they fix it though, could be pretty nice
As expected, to be honest…
How can the last benchmark have 71fps highest with gamescope locking frames to 60 max?
Come on guys, CDPR is just a small indie company after all
It seems to work for me. Or at least, it's consistently above 30. 39.16 average, 20 min, 79 max
Hopefully they get that sorted. I really enjoyed Cyberpunk and may do another run on it when I get my Steam Deck.
I do like the idea of devs adding a custom steam deck quality setting as long as they do it correctly and make sure it's tested.
It's fairly impressive it runs as well as it does. Not playable, but those settings are asking a hell of a lot.
Do game devs ever bother testing things in production-like environment?
It's like releasing features broken and fixing them later is just standard CDPR procedure at this point.

Wait, are you saying that CD Projekt RED made something that doesn't work? Who'd a thunk it! 🙂
🐧
Man I haven’t touched that game since 2020. I had uninstalled it from my pc and now it lives in the ether… cyberpunk style.
Hopefully they fix it. It's a good sign that some developers are at least aware of the Steam Deck and trying to optimise their games better for it.
Lmao even when cdpr tries to do a nice extra thing for a community they still mess it up.
