Posts in regards to the Cybertruck glitch appeared on Reddit and YouTube. The glitch occurs once you morph a truck into Elon Musk’s boxy behemoth. On exiting the car, a bug rendered your Nitro Fists, the melee weapon that’s just about precisely the way it sounds, utterly ineffective.

YouTube creator Tabor Hill examined out the glitch when he morphed a truck into the Cybertruck and drove it round for just a few seconds. As a substitute of gently gliding ahead into an opponent’s comfortable face with the Nitro Fists, the gelignite gauntlets brought about his character to enter a loud, repetitive twitch.
