THE BEAST IN ME – WHAT TO SAY TO GET BOTH CARS AS A REWARD

Our first mission objective is to neutralize the hotel’s netrunner, which we do by infiltrating with the Flathead bot and jacking into the dweller. This gives T-Bug complete control of Konpeki’s subnet and security systems.
This all changed when Saburo Arasaka was murdered. Yorinobu requested that Konpeki Plaza be put on lockdown, invoking more scrutiny into the security situation inside the hotel. From here, T-Bug was discovered inside the hotel subnet and leveled with a cyberattack, which killed her in realspace. Her death was likely a painful and brutal experience, as her cyberware was fried from the assault.
1 – Once the hotel was put on lockdown, Konpeki security staff discovered and removed the Flathead bot, making the dweller active on the net again. This netrunner discovered T-Bug in the system and launched a cyberattack that killed her in realspace.
2 – Arasaka security forces entered Konpeki Plaza and had their own netrunner jack into the system. The Arasaka runner then launched a cyberattack on T-Bug and neutralized her.
I think the first option is more likely, considering how quick the response was. Arasaka had some forces on-site already. But most of them arrived AFTER T-Bug was killed. So it seems more likely that the hotel security were the ones to discover T-Bug and take her out.

It truly annoys me how she had a profile just to die off. Feels like they just made changes after writing her profile in the official guide
pretty sure it was soulkiller they hit T-bug with
I liked Bug with her abrasiveness. Bad way to go.
When we think about the early teaser video of when V gets betrayed by Dex, not only is the bodyguard in the room but also T-Bug hacking and getting shot by our character before Dex and finally gets the better of us. Then we woke up in the garbage heap to the big revealer that Keanu Reeves would appear playing Johnny Silverhand.
"Wake the ** up Samurai! We have a city to burn!"
Another option: T-Bug was already planning to get out of The Biz. What better way than have a backup plan ready to go instantly faking her own demise. She said she was going to burn all her bridges with people she had contact with so having anyone she was associated with think her dead would be the best way to accomplish this.
So Arasaka squashed her like a bug? Meh. I never cared for that character anyway. Besides, in the trailer she betrays V and V shoots her in the head. She was always going to die.
How about the option that she faked her death and that she'll pop up in future expension? Because I find it a hard pill to swallow that as Dexter says it a top tier netrunner like her did have some serious heavy duty protection and counter measures especially as she knew she was going after big boys like arasaka she should have had more than enough advanced warning to unplug and disappear before the enemy even tackle the first layer of her ice wall faking her death with a scream was just icing on the cake and provide the bonus of stopping netwatch and arasaka from pursuing her
I was hoping T-Bug was a romance option, can't beat options. She was pretty fine though
I would wager T-Bug was hit with a Weaponized soulkiller in konpeki. Arasaka lore is concurrent with using soul killer as ICE for decades since Silverhands tower bombing
Another option? Since Konpecki plaza is protected by Arasaka she could have been his with
Soulkiller
She probably went out the worst of the whole crew
they need to revamp the before the main heist because V telling Jackie that Dex has ood jobs (one of them being nabing the bot) but V said other jobs they need to do as prep work before doing the main Heist that way they give us more time with Jackie and T-Bug
Has anybody ever thought why we don't have playable, unscripted, cyberspace locations in this game? Imagine having purchasable netrunner chairs for your apartments that allow you to complete certain tasks for quests, interact with netrunner npcs in cyberspace to learn info, news, and even info on shop items in their respective real world location. You could have cyberspace quickhacks that allow you to hack into different faction's mainframes to steal data that can be sold to other factions, learn about enemy types (possible weapon loadouts, weaknesses, basically a bestiary), and attack enemy netrunners in cyberspace.
I came up with this in minutes. CDPR couldn't fathom this for years apparently. I bet if this game was made in the early 2000s it would've had stuff like this.
You can also go back to the netrunner vendor in Kabuki and ask about T-Bug. He'll tell you what happened and how they found her afterwards.
It's a pity that we lost Jackie, T-Bug, Evelyn and Dexter so early in the game. it would have been nice to play out more of their earlier escapades (maybe we'll get a 'directors cut' rather than a GOTY edition when all the expansions have come out?).
Having said that, all of those deaths came about in an organic fashion, subversive in a good way, unlike TLOU 2 which stripped everything Joel was in the first game, and by extension the caution which the gamer picked up during the play-through, and have him save a stranger – putting himself and his brother at risk – go to a location where there are strangers, walk right into the middle of the room, give up his name (knowing fully well he was a wanted man). People say that he had softened up, but that's rubbish. You don't lose the things that allowed you to survive for 25 years in that world. And if he was soft, why was he put in charge of the settlements security and scouting?
The death which surprised me the most, initially, was Evelyn. She was smart and assured, a survivor. I thought she'd be a mainstay of the campaign, a living mainstay. The writers did a fine job in revealing the extreme risks she took and the awful things which happened to her, which broke a strong individual like her and make her take her own life.
Fun fact.. T-bug goes down the door opens, RUN UP STAIRS go to the Roof and grab the best Samurai sword in the game.
This game has an amazing fucking story, and i hope we get some kind of a dlc for jackie and/or tbug
The body by the hospital her name is Lady space not T-bug
As a long time PnP Cyberpunk player, I've pretty much always been of the opinion that Bug isn't dead. While, yes, there are a lot of ways for a netrunners to die in cyberspace, there are just as many ways for them to hide/survive. Unless she ended up getting jumped by an AI (and, knowing 'Saka, that's actually a decent possibility), it's entirely possible that Bug was able to activate a failsafe and jack herself out before either the dweller/another security runner tagged her. While Bug is a great netrunner, and part of the team, I never got the feeling she was as committed to said team as Jackie and V. Jackie and V were clearly meant to be as close as siblings (even though that's only established through cutscenes, which is a crying shame…I really hope that a future DLC will let us actually PLAY through some/all of that montage), but Bug always acted like it was just another job. At least, that's the impression I got.
Plus, in the face to face with Dex, she makes it crystal clear that her only goal with regards to the heist is making enough money to get the hell out of Night City and set herself up somewhere where she never has to 'Run again. It's not that big a stretch to think that she got out (possibly/probably injured), and faked her death. And it would also make sense that, at some point (ie in a future DLC), V gets an anonymous, encrypted call from a burner number, asking for help, and it turns out to be Bug.
That's my headcanon, anyway. Whether CDPR will actually care enough to do something like that is open for debate. Given some of their…*AHEM*…"questionable" decisions made with regards to turning what could have, arguably, been one of the best CRPG's to ever exist, into a watered down, open world (ie another name from crap lately) FPS with only the barest bones of the original, planned story…I'm not holding on to too much hope.
Dont get me wrong, I love CP2077, warts and all, but it's not even close to what it could/should have been.
It seems that T-bug is most likely dead. Although it does also seem possible that she decided that it was time to scram and flee Night City. Could she have faked her death, and then told her netrunner friend in the shop to tell people that she had been fried in a netrunner attack?
I always assumed it was Black ICE.

It's pretty self explanatory lol she dead gone not coming back
T-Bug and her brother Bed-Bug.
T-Bug was fried with the Soulkiller.
She is physically dead, but her engram remains.
Thanks for this, I remember when I played this the first time, everything was so hectic I kinda forgot about T-Bug until after the mission. I was running around the city and I randomly said out loud to myself “what happened to T-bug?”
Everyone dies during the heist.
Definitely should kept Jackie and T-Bug Alive. It would’ve been cool to have them alongside me as my crew throughout different missions. It sucks that your choices barely mattered when it comes to most things in the game. Like make it so they can die or survive this mission depending on your decisions before hand.
The game clearly let's you know she died. Smh. 🤣
I would have liked to see Jackie and T-Bug survive.
Jackie, because we repeatedly hear that he and V are chooms, close as can be, ride or die for each other, but half the time V is very bitchy with him, especially during the heist. I wanted to see more of their friendship. It reminded me of Anakin and Obi-Wan, how the Prequels said they were close but we almost exclusively only saw the bad moments.
T-Bug because she seemed smart and interesting, and could have been a cool netrunner mentor character for V. Because otherwise it makes no sense for V to have only gotten any of the cyberdecks and hacks during the game but be so good with them.
She got Ligma, duh
Yeah I was so confused when she said that line "Not now, no no no…Arrgghh!"
I was like "dang, T-Bug got kicked offline." Little did I know she's Dead!
Surprised I'm not seeing any mention of soulkiller, I would assume Arasaka would want to have a copy of her brain to find out her accomplices
i thought the implication was that the moment suboro was dead external arasaka netrunner forces immediately started on masse entering the system and T bug probably wasnt ready for "literally all of arasakas pissed off high tier netrunners just connected.
alternatively she couldve been soulkilled as thats a thing silverhand implies they like to hit runners with
Yeah the vendor in Kabuki says her mind was fried when she was made.
