WrathOfDeadguy Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 (edited) So, you've played through the game as Nomad V- and a Nomad's most important possession is their wheels- but there you are, ready to head out into the unknown with your new family... and your ride is nowhere in sight! How could this be?! TL;DR- The request is simply this: a mod which places that one vehicle in the camp, near the tent with the Basilisk, at the end of the game, somehow. That's it. Just the one. If possible, swap one of the vehicles driving out of camp with it as well, but that's not absolutely necessary if it's too much trouble. Player-selectable in-game if possible, but swappable files are fine too (really, just one file for the Rattler is also cool; it's the only set of wheels V really needs out there in the desert anyway). --------- But, you say, maybe V left her favorite ride with the rest of the 'Caldos, wherever they're holed up. Maybe the clan already picked up every car, truck, van, bike, and... whatever the heck kind of cheap go-cart the MaiMai is... V acquired throughout her adventures in and around Night City- but that's kind of a cop-out, though, ain't it? V might've caught a lift to the Basilisk staging camp with Panam, sure... but there's no way she'd have handed the keys to her favorite ride to anyone but her most trusted chooms, and they're all there with the tank! If you're anything like me, there's one particular ride you got way too attached to, ripping around the streets of Night City, kicking up dust out in the Badlands- it was your constant companion everywhere you went! It's the car (or whatever) you really wish you could've gone for a drive in with your Output, but the game didn't let you, because of course it didn't (but that's another request for another time). It was the first thing you tried to summon when you needed to be somewhere, and if the game screwed up and drove it over a landmine, or clipped it through a random Militech truck, launched it into orbit, turned it into a submarine, or sped away down the wrong street on its way to V, you fumed and cursed and flames shot out your ears until the game let you spawn it clean again. For me, it was that plucky beater that takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin', V's very own Nomad hotrod, the off-roading hatchback held together by duct tape, zipties, and prayers, the one and only "Rattler." After V got her hands back on that car, she'd never go anywhere without it by choice. Certainly not off to a whole new life with a whole new family. She'd have left the Basilisk in Night City before letting go of her bullet-ridden baby again! But maybe for you it was that reliable old Hella EC-D V spent her early days in Night City cruising around in doing mercwork with Jackie. Maybe it was Jackie's Arch. Maybe your classy cabbie buddy, Delamain. Maybe it was Johnny's iconic Porsche 911. Maybe Claire's Beast was the monster truck of your dreams. Maybe it was the V-Tech that CDPR put so much advertising work into hyping up, then hid away behind an unmarked junk quest to troll us. Maybe it was even the MaiMai (you lunatic). One way or another, though, no matter which set of wheels your V put the most mileage on- you just know that V would never delta from that town without it. That ride- whichever it may be (but it's definitely the Rattler, right?)- really should be there at the end as you ride off into the sunset. Forgetting that ride would be like leaving Judy behind, and who'd be gonk enough to do that? Edited April 1, 2021 by WrathOfDeadguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
