About terrorbyte

If malware had six wheels, heavy armor and comfy seats, this is what it would look like. It can launch source and resupply missions for every business you own, mine the data of every other reprobate in the city, launch exclusive Client Jobs, and that’s before you get to the upgrades: a Multi-Lock Missile Battery, a drone station, a Mk II weapon workshop, and the only vehicle workshop in the world capable of customizing the Oppressor Mk II."―Rockstar Newswire description.The Benefactor Terrorbyte is an expedition truck featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the After Hours update, released on August 14th, 2018, during the The Black Madonna Residency Week event.

Design

Grand Theft Auto Online

"The Terrorbyte is a fully rigged command unit, custom built by Lester’s trusted hacker contact Paige, and can handle the operations for your vast criminal network from anywhere in the state."―Rockstar Newswire description, prior to its debut.The Terrorbyte is a large command truck based on the Mercedes-Benz Zetros 6x6 Expedition Vehicle, except that the turning lights were replaced by the main headlights and moved to the bumper, where the secondary lights are.
The Terrorbyte is similar to the Brickade featured in the Further Adventures in Finance and Felony update, having a large module in the back and an access door in the passenger side. However, the box is fully enclosed and carries two spare tires in the rear end, as well as two camera devices in the roof and the rear end, between the spare tires. A large missile battery can be fitted in the back, which is seemingly hidden within the rear module.
The rear module has an interior that is composed of a medium-sized command station, fitted with a touch screen, various electronic devices and other assets the player can purchase. There is a door at the front that leads to the cabin and there are side doors near the front and rear to exit from the truck. If a vehicle workshop is installed, a small platform allows storage of the Oppressor Mk II. Another compartment door in the rear module would theoretically allow access and exit for the aforementioned vehicle.
Paige Harris claims she built and designed the Terrorbyte’s interior herself, although it is unknown what the vehicle was used for before Paige converted it into a mobile nerve center. When the player enters the rear module for the first time, a brief cutscene plays and Paige talks through some sort of communicator, briefing the player the functionality of the truck, as well as any purchased asset and interactive features.

Performance

Grand Theft Auto Online

VehicleThe Terrorbyte has similar performance to that of the Brickade, having decent speed and handling, but lower acceleration. The suspension provides good capabilities to sort small obstacles and uneven terrain, but is not the best off-road. Its high exhaust stack gives it the ability to drive through deep water without the risk of engine damage.
The truck is equipped with a Player Scanner that is able to read players' general statistics, along with number of private dances and sex acts purchased. The scanner are actually the cameras on the roof and the rear of the vehicle. Like the Mobile Operations Center and the Avenger, a blue corona may appear in front of the module's door when stationary and one can either exit directly outside or going on the cabin.
ArmorThe Terrorbyte is very resistant against bullets and explosives in general, as it takes up to thirty-four rockets without exploding (with a thirty-fifth one to finally destroy it). Like most armored vehicles, the Terrorbyte comes with bullet-resistant windows, providing small protection against firearms, but one should be still careful, as armor-piercing rounds can pass through these easily and the windshield is pretty large, leaving the front occupants vulnerable.
WeaponryThe Terrorbyte comes equipped with a missile battery that can lock on five different targets at once, able to attack simultaneously on an order specified by the locking-on sequence. The missiles are not very maneuverable and can miss targets that are moving away from where the launcher is aiming. Also, like the Chernobog, it has very limited capacity against land vehicles that are too close to the truck, despite capable of locking on targets from close ranges. It takes five seconds to reload, regardless of how many missiles it fired.
The missile battery bears strong resemblance to the main armament of the M270 Multiple Launch Rocket System, also having 12 tubes in two six-pack launch pod containers.

Functionality

The Terrorbyte serves as an operation hub for all 8 business types; Vehicle Cargo, Special Cargo, M/C Club Businesses(Weed, Cocaine, Meth, Counterfeit Cash), Supplies and Air Freight Cargo, alongside Paige's Client Jobs. They can be accessed and triggered on the touchscreen tablet within the truck module.
If installed, a Turret station provides access to the multi-lock missile battery, which offers defensive capabilities and can lock on five different targets at once.
The optional Drone station provides access for a surveillance drone in an area within the truck and will be deactivated when it is out of the signal radius and have a one-minute cooldown until another one can be deployed again.

• Drones have a booster that lasts for four seconds and takes 15 seconds to recharge.
• The stun gun has the effect as its weapon counterpart and takes 12 seconds to recharge.
• A self-destruct sequence that makes the drone explode, serving as a remote explosive.

The optional Weapon Workshop gives the same functionality as the ones from the Mobile Operations Center and the Avenger.
The truck's Specialized Workshop is the only place where the Oppressor Mk II can be upgraded. The Oppressor Mk II is the only vehicle that can be upgraded and stored in the Weapon Workshop.

Customizations

Grand Theft Auto Online

The Terrorbyte's minimum base cost is $1,375,000 and for every non-default aspect, its price will be increased.

Trivia

General

• The name is obviously a play on words of the digital storage unit, Terabyte, and terror.

Grand Theft Auto Online

• According to Paige Harris and the Rockstar Newswire, the truck's scanner is a more powerful version of the outdated LSPD scanners fitted on Police Mavericks.
• The Terrorbyte's interior actually contains three different drone props on a bench, but only one model is used.
  • The functional drone is a quad rotor drone with a small cannon next to the camera, which is the stun gun.
  • The second one has the layout of a basic helicopter, similar to the Black Hornet Nano, a military micro UAV.
  • The third one is shaped like an orb with the camera on it, and has two small "wings" and antenna on the front.

Bugs/Glitches

Grand Theft Auto Online

• Some of the stats displayed with the player scanner are incorrect or misleading:
  • The ‘Total Earnings’ stat only displays how much cash the player has in their inventory. This was fixed in the GTA Online: Arena War update.
  • The ‘Favorite Vehicle’ stat does not seem to change regardless the amount of time the player spends using one particular model.
• Some Resupply Missions used inside the Terrorbyte would not properly start when confirming the selection of doing a Resupply Run.
• If the player buys 3 Special Cargo crates while a Special Item is active, the player will receive 3 said Special Items.
  • This exploit was fixed in the Arena War update, now Special Items work as intended when bought in the Terrorbyte.
• When entering the Nerve Center, players would become stuck on the black screen for a prolonged amount of time.
• Sometimes players would spawn under the map with the Terrorbyte or enter the nerve center with glitched graphics.
