The Cybertruck has been a menace on America’s roads since it launched, slicing open one owner’s leg, annoying residents of Maine and trapping all kinds of limbs in its openings. Now, it turns out that the angular atrocity is also ruining the virtual world as well.
The Cybertruck is available to drive in games like Fortnite and Rocket League as part of a Summer Road Trip bundle that gamers have been able to download for a few weeks. However, using the Cybertruck in Fortnite sparks a bug that can brick your progress on the game, reports Engadget.
When you hop in any other truck on the game and regenerate it as a Cybertruck, the move can reportedly prevent certain weapons from working, according to Engadget:
Posts about the Cybertruck glitch appeared on Reddit and YouTube. The glitch happens when you morph a truck into Elon Musk’s boxy behemoth. On exiting the vehicle, a bug rendered your Nitro Fists, the melee weapon that’s pretty much exactly how it sounds, completely useless.
The glitch was showcased by YouTuber Tabor Hill, who uploaded gameplay footage of the bug this week. In the clip, the player shows their weapons working fine before they hop into a Mercedes G-Wagen and transform it into a Cybertruck. After driving around for a few seconds, they hop out again and their weapons don’t work.
That’s a pretty irritating glitch! It’s not uncommon for new game aspects to have some sort of issue, but this had to be frustrating for players. Thankfully, a fix for the bug was rolled out to Fornite players who are now free to cosplay being a Tesla bro.
The Cybertruck has also become something of a culture war on wheels since it launched. The car is loved by Tesla fans but hated by most normal people, who are exactly the kind of customers that Tesla is struggling to sell to right now.
