So is this what they call “cyber bullying”?

The only kind I support.

But that’s like the entire game anyway… You mean to tell me you play a last man standing shooter and let people live?

Quoted in the article:
“i propose a new fortnite rule: if you see someone in a cybertruck, you are now in a truce with everyone else in the lobby until they’re taken out. this repeats as many times as necessary until everyone that bought this stupid thing is gone. normal gameplay proceeds.“

That is astronomically fucking funny

I’m so confused about what fortnite even is now. It used to be a game where you fought zombies, now I have no idea

pathetic

You don’t buy it right? I didn’t check the store, but I saw its a reward from a quest.

Real Fortnite players only buy skins from emotionally-stunted Twitch streamers…

I guess if it’s a situation where multiple enemies are in sight everyone would focus on the cybertruck so you’d be even more targeted than normal (I have no idea how to play Fortnite).
ladicius@lemmy.world 3 months ago
That’s exactly what will happen (that ugly nazi car is not yet available ingame).

I guess everyone will work in solidarity to kill the player who picked the cybertruck character, then once that’s done the remaining humanoids will just play like normal

Driving a Cybertruck in the game would be like being a child molestor in the penitentiary. Other inmates may have beef with one another and be ready to shank a mfer if they get froggy; but if a child molester joins the cell block, they team up on him first.

No idea how Fortnite works. But can you (realistically) use the Cybertruck to cut off your enemies fingers with it’s automatic doors.
MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 3 months ago
Dunno. But it seems like its bulletproofing has been accurately translated into the game.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 months ago
So it’s not very bulletproof at all?

I wish I could do this in real life. I’ve seen two in my city and they’re visually arresting.

Just spray them with a hose

And they look like dumpsters from behind. Apparently raccoons have even scratched some trying to get inside, thinking they held delicious trash.

The dude who owns the new Dunkin Donuts in town parked his out front with a Dunkin sticker on it. Totally a legit business expense.

This wouldn’t change how I play? I already destroy everything on sight (in Fortnite).
Ultraviolet@lemmy.world 3 months ago
The change is if you see one, there’s an implied truce between every non-Cybertruck-owner until they’re dead, then it’s back to a free for all.
intensely_human@lemm.ee 3 months ago
I fucking love playing as the odd man out. This makes me want to play fortnight and go run rampant in the cybertruck like john wick.
Now all I need is skill
funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
yes but on the other hand people will think you (shudder) like Cybertrucks
RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I love this. Just like what happened with the gold skins in MechWarrior Online.
The “truck” has a terrible design, and often is incapable of completing basic tasks a truck is expected to do without great difficulty or some weird quirk.

Is the Cybertruck even a truck? I don’t see the “truck” part.
I know very little about cars, and even less about trucks. When I think of a truck, I think of a bed in the back where you can haul stuff from Home Depot.
Where is the “truck” part?
Starbuck@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Trucks with covers are a thing, it’s called a tonneau. What’s not normal is for them to be permanent.
CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Someone on my discord posted the warranty terms and apparently it doesn’t cover unusual damage or useage such as exposrure to rain, sunlight or being used off a paved road. So no its not a truck, in fact it doesn’t even stand up as a car.
BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
It has a bed with a cover on, raccoons think it’s a dumpster and try and open it.
Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 3 months ago
Generally if you get a truck and do truck things with it, there’s 2 specific things a truck will have that no other class has:
But hilariously your average crossover is fully capable of hauling an inexpensive trailer and a couple thousand pounds of whatever if not more than that, which covers 99.9% of the lifestyle arguments most pavement princes truck owners make for why they need a truck
helenslunch@feddit.nl 2 months ago
You mean…like the Cybertruck has? Did you really think it didn’t have a bed?
Clasm@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I’m going to start calling them Tesla hatchbacks.
Rhaedas@fedia.io 3 months ago
My first live sighting of one of them I realized how god-awful ugly they really are. Even in some bronze/pewter terrible color. Or maybe it got left in the rain and that's just corrosion.
Voyajer@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I forgot about that! Good times. They got team killed/crippled pretty often too.
RightHandOfIkaros@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Yes, it was funny when the entire game would stop just to focus on killing the gold skin user. Didn’t matter what team they were on, they became the collective target of everyone in the match. Good times.

…such as?
