Hello and welcome to No Latency Live 2024. This is our San Diego Comic Con 2024 panel for you to enjoy in both audio and video versions. If you're listening to the audio feed, you can check out the video version on our YouTube channel and the link is in the description. This year at San Diego Comic Con, we brought a few guests with us including Diane Hutton, Lamar, The Congae, and Utabe.

We have an absolute blast running through the bullet train and in order to find out what happens, we're going to have to keep listening and or watching on our YouTube channel. Huge thank you to our patrons and all of our listeners for your support and helping us get to Comic Con 2024. Without further ado, it's time to see what's going on with the bullet train in Night City. Shall we begin? Hello everyone and welcome to No Latency Live 2024.

We brought guests this year. Our regular players Jade, Evan, Tracy are joined by Diane Hutton, Lamar the Con Guy and Newtame with a special cameo performance from Spoon as Jeb. Music. These guys have to get on a train and they don't know that yet. So shall we begin? Iona? You're sitting in the bar across from a few of your relatively new business partners. You've invited them to no latency and they're here to pay you.

Well, if you just take a second look at this contract, you'll see that it's exactly in order the way that you wanted it. Yes, contract. Yes. Quick look over does look to be good from a quick glance. You have to excuse the fine print, but you know how it is. Of course, you know no promises here. As always, you know many people have to look over this. But there is a small problem. It's missing the 20%. That as well as I don't believe we can pay you right now.

Well, that's not part of the agreement. Usually we I understand, bring the money and I give you the. I understand, but things have developed recently that makes us believe that we expect produce first. I can produce that for you. It's of all of good faith. I mean, I invited you here as you can see. Yes, you invited us to this lovely bar in the middle of a fine part of town that definitely is on the up in up. I mean, it doesn't smell like human piss and rat feces for a

change. So that's, that's a good thing. That's a good sign. The the bark heat comes up, puts a drink in front of you both and says oh thanks, appreciate. It yeah, you're thank you K anyway. So yes, I just won't let you know no money today, but if you can produce the the product first, then of course. What my? Mother's trying to say is that I need to check the goods. First, absolutely. And I completely understand that.

But I think there there might be another issue is that if I can't get paid, I can't bring the product to you. OK, so I'm I'm concerned. I do have a concern. Yes. Do you not have the product already? Because that that should be easy. It's all, it's all just transporting it to you at this point. I just have to pay those people. So you can get it to me before you get the money. And the attention builds in the room. OK, how about this?

There's this business deal going on between you guys, right? It's it's quiet. Yeah. Things turn off the music because they kind of want to see this craziness and it's just getting good. And then the door bursts open and two party people. Sorry, three party people. Going let's keep it. Going don't mind them don't mind. Them Iona. Are. Children allowed in this establishment. They're they're not children, mostly. Oh, this is oh, this one has to be at least 12 years old.

Thank. You. This is the this looks like important business. I I appreciate, yes. Wait, are these associates of yours or what's? Going on good. Face, huh? Yes, there I do have associates that might be on the not so up and up and they like to party and they come here. That's it. And the door bursts open and stranger steps in. A tall man wearing a a cowboy hat. He's soaking wet. Hey, guys, I had the weirdest

night. I went into this Porta Potti, you know, to do my business, and then it turned sideways while I was inside. Oh, no, no. That sounds. So that's unfortunately. Terrible. Can I? There was like laughing like you laugh, little one. What are you talking about? Yeah, it sounded similar. Pesky kids, man, what are you going to do about them? OK, this sounds like a really bad joke. Like two kids a cowboy walking to a bar.

Like I, I, I have not prepared. For that I apologize that now that the bar will smell like extra room and you're in, I'll see you later. I'm going to roll for sanitizer. So this would be why we need the product first because of these unknowns that keep popping up. Yeah. And and I'm really concerned because of the fact that Porta potty was mentioned shortly after we were talking about product. Well, don't. The product will be sanitary. I'm you can see me.

I have just squirted sanitizer into my hands. Would you would you like some I squirted out of out of my wrist onto yours. That's fine. Would you like some Davine? I'm good, sweetheart. Don't worry, the product will be just fine. He has nothing to do with it. So I. Want to believe you? Sorry about that interruption. My name is Vivi. Hello, Vivi. I'm the, I'm the medical professional. Actually, I I am. I am a doctor. She's really good. Hi, I'm Teensy.

I'm her bestie. And the honorary Girls night attendee. Oh yeah, I'm sorry, I'm just retro professional porta potty tipper over. Yeah. What? What? No comment. Nice to meet you my name. Is. I'm sure there's a story there. I don't know if I want to get into that part of it right now. My name is Devin Coleman, folks. Nice to meet you. What are? They all doing here. Oh, this is this is Devin and Devin their business. You can just call me Nitro. Nitro and Devin. Nitro.

And Devin, they're business partners of mine and I brought them to our lovely establishment for a nice meeting and. You can bring your business partners here, but when I want to have a drum circle and smoke weed, I can't have it at the bar. They're. Troublemakers hello before us, but we do not have much time. I have the location on the side of Asia. It is hardly sitting in a secure sewage on the bullish China headed E out of my city over our power.

There isn't time to lose everyone get on the train, call me in favors if you have to. There is very little time to say I will attempt to sort this one in 15 minutes. Get on board, get a 7 is there? I'll be offered what you used to say and I'll and I said so the report you will miss the train. If you wait for more to come back with the visa, you will have to catch up. Security will be tight.

So I suggest you say well to me. I'll notice, although that's not you, for I would have the right point of view. This. I'll save you the Yes, you forced me. Paid. That's right. Good luck, friends. The same. Yes, we need to eat the snicket. I'll get you double. You sent Jeb to get you pizza, Vivi. Yeah, we, we just went out. We need pizza. Pizza. Late night pizza. Different of you. You know, I could go for some pizza now. What, what, what, what? What are we getting? Yeah. What was?

No. What was that? As as Sandovisian on a bullet train that we need to or. Or do you? Or do you mean the big green eye that was on all the screen? Oh, yeah, I'm sorry, what are you talking about, Domino? What about Domino? Hey, you remember that ping the bar key is talking to you? Hey, you remember that rumour a few years ago about an AI fixer and everyone was like, that can't be real, It's real. Cool. I keep. Forgetting, terrifying, that that is, that is, but.

But just just to interlude, they're very rich and Domino's. Give me some information. We're going to need all hands on deck. Would you like to make some money? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You want to make some money? I do love money Got. And what split are we talking here? About 2000 each. Oh so. Train. Yeah, I. Would have preferred at least 25 but you. Know roll for it. Little, little bureaucracy, you want to. Roll a bureaucracy? What? You got how's. 1515 huh?

I rolled A1. I'll pay you 3 grand, yes. Now you're speaking my language. I like it. Proud of you. Look at those. Girls. Well, I believe time is of the essence. 15 minutes. I guess I will call up a car. Oh. Oh yeah, 'cause Jeb's getting pizza. Oh. Yes, we don't. We don't have the. Man of White. What? No, thank you. A car is perfect, but right now, yeah. Yeah, I'll just call up a car and it. No, I'm sorry. I'm going to quickly sniff the three of you.

Make sure you don't smell like active feces. Oh. Does any of you smell like active feces right now? Never. Or piss. Never. Maybe oil this? OG stump OK. Weed is OK that. That chem dog? Oh yeah. Good. That's I'll just make sure we get one of those disposable cars, OK? And yeah, I'll call up a car and have them pick us up in the least embarrassing place near here. I mean the other way outside's got parking. You can just perfect. Just out crystals by joy. You can set them up there.

Crystals by joy. Yeah, you know the shop you came in through. Yeah, that's something I can tell people that makes more sense than this current bar. Yeah. Yeah, don't direct them to the undergrad. Absolutely not. Do you think we're amateurs? Come on. Now my name's Ping, so here's here's my car if you need to contact me for when you get paid a bit more information crew. Just so you guys are aware you need to find out where The thing is. All right, I I would I would try

again. We should probably do that quietly if the train lead gets out of the city limits it you're in Texas. I don't want to be in Texas. We're going from Night City to Texas. So. Get off the train before it leaves Night City. Only problem doesn't stop. So I'm gonna you can contact Jeb and maybe jump onto the He's very good at driving. Don't worry, he won the blood race. Oh, yeah. Jeb. Jeb. Oh oh, y'all know Jeb? Yeah, yeah. Did you watch the thing when he shot Eddie the trick in the

head? It was. Television. A lot of people did, yeah. Yeah. Oh, OK. I am less terrified. Stanley owes me still money from that race. True. You know what? OK, good reminder. Domino will help you out you after this we should talk. Definitely. OK, race. OK, much more optimistic about what's about to happen. So anyway, quick phone call, everyone meet outside of the shop, you go ahead and take a quick little bird bath and we'll see each other upstairs. And we're sure that she's legal.

As legal as this bar, probably I. Don't want to babysit kids? No babysitting, simply, there's no worries. When it comes to mind the. TC doesn't need babysitting. TTTT, I'm just going to call you TC. Yeah, that, that's. Fine, that's fine. I, I, I'm. I'm not. And what do you do exactly? I'm a tech. I fix things, I make things. I make things cooler, I make things better. Alright, I guess there's only one way to test. Well, we. Have to get on the train so it

takes probably a good idea. And how long is this car going to take? I called them up. Car arrives. Yeah, give them the information where we got to go. And out of the crowd of people outside of this bar, a a short brunette haired human with sort of a ponytail coming down with one cyber leg walks up to the car and opens the door and then looks at Iona. You go Iona. Thank you so much, Vindel, Oh. Hello. I'm Vindel. Hi. It's not a character now. They're in the bar. I'm new.

Hi. Very. Good. Very similar voices. It's OK. Everyone get in and you're driving towards the bullet train. You've got a few minutes if you want to order any extra equipment before you get on board. Some of you, you all have economy tickets. If you want anything better than that, you have to roll for it or work out how to get something else. I'm not in economy and I'm I'm sure Devin, you don't want to be as well. Oh, absolutely not. I'm just going to. I'm just going to roll.

That's an upgrade for all of us, right? Ayana, can I go? Ahead and roll to see if I can upgrade us to 1st class. You can roll. Those that don't have as much money as the. Other you can. You have to roll individually for each ticket, sure. Was there implication? I must sleep on VV. You have done. Some electronic security tech to try to hack. It. Yeah, sure. First one's a 36. 36 yes you got Iona VIP ticket. Oh, thank you. Next one's a 40. Oh alright, you got Lamar AVIP ticket. 34 Sorry.

Devin. That was like 35. Lovely guy. 35. He's funny. Nitro gets a new ticket. All right, all. Right 48. And now there are no VIP tickets left. There are only three. There are only three. There's only three seats left in the VIP section. Can. Well, thank you very much for being so willing to. You guys are corpos, you get to be in first class. All the time. Can I get jostled awake?

I mean, do you see this outfit? I, I, I don't belong to anything under VIP, OK. Can I try and like hack in and and like cancel some tickets from other people and reassign them as I like get jolted awake and hear this hit? Yeah, do it. Do it. OK. I'm Annabelle. Let's see if I hate real life. Yeah, the math. Stop doing that 23. Yes, you're able to fight, you're able to cancel one person's VIP ticket, but that's it. OK, right. That's set it down. OK, I gave it to VV.

But you know, you're so small you could do two men in a Tran 122 children in a trench coat. Maybe. We'd have to order a trench coat. I order actually I there's one of Jeb's in my bag. Oh right, this packable 1. Packable trench coat. Packable trench coat, Jeb. Oh, that didn't work. Hold on. Sorry. Talking of Jeb. He's going to wonder where we are. Hey guys, did you guys forget something or someone? Me specifically anyway I got

some pizza here for you guys. I know Retro mentioned something about a slice of zah. Anyway it's getting cold so let me know where y'all at. Bye the oven so. It doesn't keep getting cold. Cold pizza can be good. No, no, Jeb. Jeb has to. Jeb has to get us back from the bullet train, remember? Oh, we need them. So are you I I messaged Joe back. I sent him a voice message.

Go ahead and put the pizza in the oven, but we need you to get back in the van and follow our location to the bullet train. He doesn't pick up. Oh gosh. He'll get the message. He'll get the message. And you've driven up to the station and you're outside as a gaggle of people are getting on board. There is access through for everyone through economy. Everyone has to walk through economy. Is there a large bag of AVIP person I can get into? Ha, probably that's not a bad idea.

As you look at the train you can see it from outside and it has sections 2 economy cars, a staff car above the second economy car, a dining car, a safe car, avip car between them and the engine on the end. OK. Everything in my heart says probably the safe car, but we start to get through economy and just. Close your eyes and walk fast. Do you have any extra perfume on you? But. I do I. Oh, thank. Actually, do you have like bags that I can cover my shoes as I

walk through? There is a machine outside the train that has that for you. Each of the shoe covers is 30 eddies. Hi. Pretty much there we go. It's. Pretty much free. OK, all right, High Roller. Fair enough. Well, Vendel, do you want to lead the charge through economy for us? Spritz the perfume along the way. Spritzing perfume. Yes. You got it. Thank you. There you are. Does that work for you? So much better. Perfect. And you've all been LED into the economy car.

I said it to you on Discord. So this car is long. There are two bathrooms, a multitude of sections, and a bunch of seats that all face the same way. The security at the very front as you go towards the next car. 2 vending machines, some outside of the bathrooms as well. Very, very back of the train car is a hatch in the floor with a computer next to it and a ticket vending machine. Man. A nice nice train. One thing Dark Future got right is. The train switch. Yeah, I want trains like.

Those. You could live on this train. Right. I'm sure people do live on this train. Car smells damp, but other than that it doesn't smell of anything else bad. Well, shag carpet inside is not a good idea. This has mold OK. Shall we keep going? Absolutely. To the VIP, check any of the things in here before you. Move on. Well, I. Mean, I see there's a vending machine, right? There there's a few vending machines. I'd like to see that vending machine and see what's inside of it.

Sure. Romy 3D10. 3D10. 486. So you find seat covers for 10 each, a six pack of smash for 60 eddies, and some luggage tape all. Right, you know what? I'll take all that. I'll take seat covers, tape and smash. Yeah, the luggage tape is on sale. It's only 15 are. You going to Fonze that or you? Know I'm going to pay for it, but that's all the seat covers, right? It's the it's the seat covers are 10 each if you want to buy one for each person. Yeah. Cool.

Alright, cool. Hey, so I got seat covers for those that are are more germaphobic. They're fifty 80s apiece on sale. Done deal, yeah. I got I got a discount. I I hacked the machine. That's the discount. Yeah, there were 100 eddies first. Thank you very, very much. I will definitely take one or two of those. Sure. Yeah, 100 eddies. Thank you. Yes, Audrey, Daddy's. But I'm a Better Business person than you are. I. Get them the product. Then that goes at this hatch in

the ground. This is cool. I'll check it out. Thank you, Teensy. Teensy, you come across a luggage storage and distribution system. Yes. So this system stores large bags underneath this car, but there is an option on there for premium bag storage and it gets sent to the safe car. There we go. I will relay this to the group it have I found any unattended bags I could exactly insert myself into? Roll perception. That's louder than I thought. Sorry guys. I will carry that bag that TT

will be in, no worries. Does anyone want to roll perception? Anything else on this car? I definitely would. I want to. I want to pay attention more to security. 20. Situations. 20 Yeah, yes. You find a bag, that's it. It's 4 1/2 feet of basic. You can fit in it OK. Yeah. And it's orange. OK, then I'll go to retro and be like if I get in this, you can do things and send me to the safe car. Oh yeah, with. The 'cause I can't do it while I'm in the bag. Yeah, but I got the baggage

tape. Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK, you got a zipper inside. Do I have a zipper inside? You'd have to Jerry rig this in order to be able to get out from there, OK? I can. I can Jerry rig it. OK, I'll use my package tape so that way you can get in there. OK, OK, but before you do all that, let's make sure. There's any eyes? On us, perhaps? What did you want 18? 18 Yeah, at the very, very end of the car, you can see there's a little security station, a little red little cabin.

These look like they've been added to the drain, like bolted to the ground. So they're in addition, Inside is a little seat, a locker and a place for a security officer to sit. There's a little window, a bit of glass, and they can talk to people. The guy in this one, this is Economy 2, is bored. He is just piddling around on his phone, not paying attention to anyone right now, but that's this guy. So every time you see one of those red things, there's probably a security guard in there.

As far as a camera, surveillance, anything like that? You can see he has a camera feed. You can see he's not looking at it, but there is a camera feed, yes. All right, TT, why don't we test that tech skill of yours? How are you with cameras? Oh, cameras. Good, good. Yeah, it's tech. I got it. Yeah, we might want to cut a lot of those off. I'll just loop the footage maybe. Loop, loop the footage. OK, yeah, yeah, yeah, I could. I could just.

Perhaps, probably. It'll be like we were nobody. Is there is there a way? Is there access somewhere for me to even do that or? If you want to look around, roll me a perception check, OK? Yeah, teens, you just did that same thing you did at the Boba Bar when you just had that same music video playing as the loop of the loop of the loop of the loop. Nobody could get you to stop it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK. Perception.

Yes, 18. 18 Yes, you see that the camera screens are connected to a cable that goes above the second economy car towards the staff area. OK. So the server for the cameras is in the staff car above economy 1. OK, so I can't do both things. I can't like like I'd have to go to the this car to do that and I'd have to go down and. Yeah, because it would be, it would be really helpful if we had a second tech. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Man, I wish we had a second.

Tech yeah yeah, yeah hey, you're a second Tech sorry so coming off all that I forgot I. Forgot, sorry. Yeah. Yeah, so, so, so you can do the cameras. Well, who's going to send you down to the safe car then? Well then we need 3 techs. What if I'm? Well what if U tech and U tech and vandal goes to the safe car? Well but I I I'm terrible with tech things, if there's things to like unlock or stuff I'm rubbish. I I hate to add this but we are VI. PS We should have a bag that

should go to that place. We simply need to claim a bag. This orange one will do. Yeah, yeah. You belong. Your bag belongs to me, K We'll check you in. K. Everything's fine. Oh. Perfect. Cool, I will give Devin the luggage tape so that way they can market for their own and I will head up to go and take care of the cameras, although I'm conically never been good with cameras. Right. Retro heads towards the staff car. And what are you, what are you

going to do? Is anyone going to help Tinsy get into? Oh, should I roll basic tech to to? Yes. Figure. OK, roll for Jerry Rig. Yeah. Vendell walks up behind Vivi and just whispers she can be able to breathe in there. Like medically? I've. She'll have enough oxygen to get. To And that's your medical opinion. Yes. OK. Is it a breathable fabric luggage or is it hard case, hard case, soft case? What are we talking here? I. Just wanted to sort this.

Yeah, sort of there's. Air in there at some point. Mesh. Pockets. She'll have oxygen. For an for some, for. Right. She's not staying there for hours. Hold your breath for a little bit. Don't talk too much. I rolled a 25 to Jerry rig. Yeah, I think that's the most easily forgettable suitcase in retired Drain at this point. It you've really you've really gussied it up and it doesn't even look like the case you pilfered from someone else.

Now Jeff definitely looks like a unique but ignorable suitcase. Lovely. 25 man, you've got to say yes. Do you know what I mean? Good luck. Good luck, Teensy. Thanks. You got this. And Phoebe, you say this as you zipper. In. Doing your best to fold the the the the zipper tags into the hole so that she. Worse comes to worse, I have a tech tool I can cut my way out probably. All right. Does anyone else want to do

anything else in this car? You're going to do anything with that security guard or you're OK with them ignoring you? As long as I if I'm paying attention and he looks like he's busy doing God knows what in that booth and not paying attention to us, I'm good. Yeah, as you pass by the booth, you notice that he has like a stun baton hanging on the wall. And oh, I'm taking it. You have to reach through the glass and pass it. There's There's no way you could

do that without going. Into that, is there a way for me to do? Yeah, that's a door. OK, All right, if you. Want stealth? I'll let you do it. Yes, yes, absolutely. I mean, you can't just say things like stun baton and then expect me to not want to do the. Thing DDD What? What? What? What? My dear sister, what are you doing? I see something shiny what I want. I will buy you whatever you want. Sometimes it's just about taking do what I want. Do not. What I want? I know.

Now please don't make us pull. Listen, listen, listen. Roll a face down you 2. What wait? What it roll a face down with each other? Oh. Face down. Oh, plus reputation plus 1D10. You both have a reputation of four. Even if it's not doesn't say so in the app. So add 4 to that role. Reputation. It's in combat. It's in combat. Oh, that's why I'm like. What the heck? We're using the Cyberpunk Red Companion app if you guys love cyberpunk, it's awesome and really easy to set your stuff up.

Really. Oh, here it is. So it 12. Where is it? Right there. So where it says reputation zero, it's right here. It's right. Underneath rolling. Forget it's. Family drama's making me uncomfortable. I'm going to start smoking a joint right now. This is how I. This is how I. But I got a 20 on stealth. It's not there if if I'm able to to battle my brother. It's not on mine. Oh. 13. Just barely.

So so here's the thing. Here's the thing, if you still want to take the baton, you have to take a minus to that role. My how big is? So you can still, you can still go. You'd have to take a minus for that role. Essentially your bosses says no and you can feel he means it. You have a gun. And the problem is, is now you've been standing. There don't have a stun baton security. God can see you with the corner of his eye. You've been standing there a hot second, staring at his baton.

Hey sis, I love you. I love you dearly. I'm leaving. I'm. Just going to walk into the. Net, I'm just leaving. Devin just got my house. We have here. All right, we'll be moving on. Starts heading in the direct. I start heading in the direction. As you enter the economy car, you watch Retro go up the stairs between the two cars and into the staff area. That's not right. Good night. Hey, guys. Yeah, Jeb. Thanks, dude. Sorry, Jeb, I got to call you back. Call you back.

So in this staff area you've got a little recreation area, 2 little bunk units for the staff to sleep during the ride, there is the staff office and two single occupancy bathrooms. Well. Now, I apologize, my hearing is not the best, especially when things are happening. What exactly are we grabbing from here again? I don't want to say it out loud, so I send it to you on my tile.

It's a SAN divisian. A San Divisdan it's it's A and Vivi will explain the IT is a type of cyberware that is very powerful and very useful. It makes you go like super fast zoomies. Oh, very good. Thank you so much. Yeah, my brother's more into the organic, not so much the enhancement, so forgive them. I I, I have an old soul, as I would say. That's a good thing. Too much cyberwear You. Also have old bones, so you might want to consider using this whatever the new product is.

Look, thank you. Thank you. I told you to start doing yoga, but you didn't. Listen, why flexibility? There's a Med tech right there. Why are we doing yoga? You really should. It is good for you. And you guys continue to pick a as retro heads upstairs retro. What are you going to do

upstairs, my dude? Well first I'm going to duck my giant TV like head so I don't hit the ceiling fast and I'm going to do perception to see if any of the there's any markings on the doors that would lead me to said camera rooms or something. Like that? Sure. Yeah, perception. That's a 27. 27 Yeah, you notice a few things about this space.
