He actually is in Cyberpunk, if you fuck with the ini files and model directories / file paths / name references a bit and do some reverse engineering… at least as of v2.0.
They may have cleaned it up by now, I’ve not fucked with it much in a while.
Elons’s face would only ever populate onto NCPD officers, and he has a balding, thinning hair style, similar to how he did prior to joining Tesla, before he presumably started get hair plugs or transplants of some kind.
I never did find any voice lines from Elon though, ElonCop would just have generic male cop voice as with the rest of the NCPD.
I think what happened is he did get a proper facescan done… around or right before when Nvidia barged in and told CD Projekt: You need our money, we will give it to you if you act as game dev guinea pigs for our newfangled AI rendering and lighting tech which utterly obliterates the design principles of 20+ years of 3D game engine design.
At that point, they had to rearchitect… everything, and the library of models/faces that they were going with up till that point ended up having to be more or less tossed, they made a new one, and only a few references to the older ‘library’ remain as basically legacy bits of the game.
I figured this out roughly around the same time he was buying Twitter, not too long after CP77 fixed up their wanted/cop response system to… actually work, and exist… and I just kept shooting Elon, and hordes of other ElonCops, like Smith in the fucking Matrix.
In said interview, Grossman told the site that “Musk plainly imagines he’s the JC Denton of this world—a plainspoken everyman, standing up to the elite. As is obvious to everyone, Musk is the one with power and he’s just pathologically incapable of honest introspection.”
And even more scathing: "I would say Musk is like a Deus Ex villain, except that the franchise doesn’t have any villains as whiny and self-servingly delusional as he’s shown himself to be.
I have been saying, for I think years now, that Elon thinks he is JC when he is actually a even cringier version of Bob Page.
He literally had JC as his Twitter avatar for like a year at one point.
Its so fucking pathetic.
I guess I am glad the actual scriptwriter agrees.
Elon is the fakest try hard gamer that has ever existed, landing us in a reality that is somehow more absurd and ludicrous than even the wackier elements of DX, all because daddy didn’t love him and he just wanted to be cool.
Cyberpunk as a genre is a warning, not a fucking aspirational instruction manual.
I guess we can only hope he neuralinks up his own brain at some point, and then shortly thereafter discovers the folly of making it use bluetooth.
It’s an interesting game and it has some good ideas, but it’s incredibly janky. I’ve seen single devs develop games in less than a year that have better animations.
But despite it’s rather dated look and it’s clunky controls it does have a very large map and a large play account per map. That’s quite attractive to some people.
Although personally I suspect people are going to come up with a better version of the game in battlefield via portal.
It would probably be cheaper and easier to buy the cheapest copy of EFT and mod it with SPT and FIKA co-op compared to paying full price for battlefield and having to mod that INTO tarkov.
I’ve been reading a lot of comments that make it sound like portal is a new thing, but it was in 2042 too and was incredibly underwhelming. Did something new happen with it that I don’t know about?
It is a looter shooter (a shlooter, if you will) cranked up to 11. Since now you need to actually be vulnerable while you spend time sorting through the loot pinata you just shot rather than holding a button to vacuum up all the purples and oranges.
And when you get into an actual gunfight with someone, it genuinely feels like you are in a big budget “prestige” action film as you play cat and mouse, barely miss someone, take a shot to your chest plate, and are frantically trying to wrap a bandage around your arm while listening for footsteps or, even worse, a grenade.
Then you add the humans into the mess and it all goes to shit. Because now? They know where everything that matters for progression is on a map and just camp it. There is no gunfight because they are just aiming at where you head will be when you bend down to get the key you need to unlock a vendor.
So then you need to watch a bunch of videos online to learn where the popular camping spots are for every extraction and objective. Which means THEY need to watch videos to learn where to hide to camp those anti-camping spots and so forth. And, because Tarkov is so hardcore, nobody has any maps or compasses and you need to memorize the layout of every single map visually.
And if you DO luck out and actually get one of those gunfights? Yeah… the other person has been playing the game for 90 hours a week and has L5 body armor that you literally can’t penetrate without half a mag. And they have thermal scopes and armor piercing rounds that shred through your plate carrier instantly.
And that assumes they aren’t just hacking where you get the telltale sound of a burst going from between the center of your head to just above it as your body falls before the audio shuts off.
All that said: Tarkov with the SPTarkov mod is actually fucking amazing. Although you still have the problem of needing to memorize maps because paper maps cost a lot of money and take up slots because The Failed State That Is Totally Ukraine doesn’t have photocopiers or even scraps of paper to jot down landmarks on while staring at one of the few maps in The Legally Distinct And Much Less Interesting Zone.
Another fun tarkov-ism. Because the game is so realistic, you have no idea if you are injured unless you bring up your inventory screen or have suffered a catastrophic injury. So you basically have to bring up the inventory screen any time you hop off a ledge or go through the bushes in case you broke your leg or got snagged on some barbed wire and need to apply a tourniquet.
Would a federated discovery frontend work? Peertube’s back end of the service would probably work great as a starting point since it uses torrents to ease up on traffic for individual servers
Good, the game needs some fresh leadership. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that on the same day they announced this, Bungie also announced that all previous season passes will soon return to a kiosk in-game and you can finish them at any time (yes like the Helldivers model). Plus, players who never got the pass before will be able to buy them for a pretty reasonable price (around $6 USD I believe).
Does this mean that sunsetted content can be played again (ie the original campaign)? If so I would mayhe consider getting back into it. Otherwise I still have no interest in returning
No, I think Forsaken (Dreaming City) is the oldest content still in the game. If you want to see the old campaign I’m sure there are playthroughs on YouTube you could watch.
Considering I payed to play those campaigns, not watch them on YouTube, I’ll just save my time. Warframe has scratched the Destiny itch for me in recent years while also respecting me as a customer
