📋 About This Mod

This mod makes Cerberus really, really dumbCompatible with 2.21

Are you tired of peeing yourself out of fear in THAT mission?

Are you looking for a semi-friendly companion as you tackle Cynosure?

Is Cerberus outright just too scary for you?

Than Welcome to CERBERUS IS DUMB!

This mod makes Cerberus' reaction time really, really slow, practically nonexistent.

Cerberus can not sprint.

Cerberus cannot detect you while using Optical Camo.

Reaction time and alerted/combat state & cooldown decreases depending on game difficulty.

99% of the time Cerberus will flat out ignore you. His reaction state is turned into that of a 16 year old dog with severe cataracts.

In version 2. 0 the mod was overhauled to bridge the immersion between the original mod and vanilla Cerberus

his reaction time is now slightly faster

cooldown for alerted mode was increased and combat mode was decreased

detection modifier was changed and now scales with your games difficulty level

(easy: will hardly notice you, very hard: will see you slightly faster than vanilla values(for those who want a real challenge))

this still retains the desire of the original mod, but it ultimately makes the mission not a complete bore(but also not stress inducing)



WHAT'S NEXT?

Keep your eyes open for a mod i'm working on that will remove the restriction on using sandevistan's for the last mission! 

Things to note:

This mod does NOT make Cerberus entirely oblivious to you, which means you can NOT be entirely careless around him/her/they/it.

-Upon activation of Cerberus' hunt, you must enter the downward passage or face immediate execution by this overgrown, violent roomba.

-When using terminals, must exit when Songbird tells you to, not doing so results in a glitch that refuses to let you leave the computer.

-After the end of the terminal phase, if you do not enter the airlock immediately, you will be turned into robot soup.

Drag and drop folder inside of archive into Cyberpunk Directory.

Also Mod Manager friendly!

Pair this with my other popular mod, Truly Invisible Optical Camo!

This mod is inspired by asdfnm01's outdated Friendly Cerberus mod.
