I really wish they did a DLC where we join MaxTac and go on special missions with our own team in the Hellfire. Just like the comic, there could be a whole storyline, how in the end, we decide MaxTac's values are not what V wants and eventually quits and goes against them

The existence of MaxTac makes me wonder, how common are Cyberpsychos outside of Night City? We don't really hear about whole Nomad groups getting wiped out, even though they have their own Cyberware specialists, and Arasaka seems almost completely unprepared for a single Cyberpsycho working with an AI to raid their American HQ, failing so utterly to respond that the perpetrator might even survive. <br><br>It makes me think that actual Cyberpsychos are far more rare than the corporations are admitting...well, outside of Night City.

I have strong hunch from my gut future is like cyberpunk, no happy endings

Hello Broker,<br><br>Fantastic work, as always.<br>Strange however that Cyberpunk videos are not reaching a wider audience. Anyway, I have decided to join as a Field Agent, hoping my humble contribution will help the Broker to continue their great work.

It does make sense to use Cyberpsychos to stop Cyberpsychos. However there would be something that would make them more effective; using something like Soul Killer to turn them into combat androids. Given that there are people like Adam Smasher, I imagine robotics are at least close to what's needed. After soul killing them, all you'd need to do is alter the code, then you have a vastly superior officer. No need for chemicals or anything else, just a set of alterations. Perhaps, in time, they might see androids somewhat similar to KOS-MOS, though likely only in combat abilities and versatility.

Thank you, Shadow Broker. Use hackers to catch hackers. Use an assassin to kill an assassin. MaxTac is the Cyberpunl 2077 version of this strategy, I guess. Effective, if it is controllable. If.

Broker this is Agent Charlie-Gamma-21 report back.<br><br>Broker I manage to gain employment with the Fixer Regina Jones and is now working as her Netrunner for her Cyberpsycho research.

Pretty depressing stuff Broker, reminds me of a certain historical dictator with an infamous but questionable moustache, or shall i say it's straight out of his playbook, i do pity these Cyberpsychos, <br><br>I guess if you compare these psycho-squads/Cyberpsychos to the replicants in Bladerunner one could argue the psycho-squad is the first iteration or prototypes in this journey for the ultimate enforcer, however even with all their humanity lost due to narcotics, brainwashing and tech-implants to obviously control, that human factor still can creep in somewhere and render them vulnerable/compromised. <br><br>Come the time of the replicants which by definition looks more human than anyone can imagine but are fully machine superior in all forms and ways build to enforce, kill and everything in between, you find the perfected weapon so much so that a new breed of human bounty hunters aka blade runners are required to stop these replicants at all costs, not just because of how dangerous and unstoppable they are, but how human they are....what a weird cycle this is if you stop and think about it, to become immensely powerful, you need to lose your humanity and then to become almost completely human, you need to be immensely powerful and basically synthetic, talk about the ultimate conundrum...<br><br>Very cool deep-dive Broker, i definitely learned something today and it was on the account of the network, i guess a knowledgeable agent would be considered valuable none the less.<br><br>Excellent Presentation!
