Can i get trauma team insurance?

We don't know. Maybe.

Most likely not judging by the little information we have about them.

My guess is that outside the missions that are focused on them or have them involve in any way (Like the gameplay we saw), you'll be able to find a way to get them to a limited number of areas or missions by maybe hacking and giving away a fake signal or finding a random person that may or may not have the insurance and use them as a away of getting an extra side in a firefight.
Not necessarily helping you out, they could be hostile towards everyone except their target with the insurance. Your choices would be either hiding and hoping that they're not gonna see you or you try to take on both your original targets AND the trauma team. Latter would be hard to balance especially if you can loot every gear an entity has on them.

All these ideas would require them to be available at a very specific stage on a map or mission to not be over-used thus making the game too easy.

It's highly improbable though that we'll have anything like this. They are most likely going to only show up in scripted mission specific events.

Well, they could have it set up as a way to save the player when things go bad. You wouldn't need to see them appear or anything. Player "dies" and the screen goes black, and then you hear the response team and wake up at the hospital.

Thats an interesting thought, can you die or is it like gta where you just wake up in the hospital?

Not sure. Don't remember seeing the player "die" in any videos so far. So it could just be a revive point. You wake up, minus a big deductible. lol

That could be a decent mechanic. Something to spice up the dying part. Unfortunately it wouldn't really work with an RPG where you're saving every 5 to 10 minutes and reload a save after you didn't like the outcome of something.

Its an open world game so its hard to imagine death as a final thing and reliance on saved games to come back.

Or maybe im just thinking gta too much.

And how he suppose to have money for it if he barely have money for implants at the start of the game?

Who knows how much money we'll start bringing in with some of the missions? Or maybe we'll get hooked up through a connection? After all, that's how a lot of stuff gets done in Cyberpunk. Just like the real world, it's all about who you know. ;)

Possibly. The majority of open world games do exactly that. You die. That's it. Either you load a save, or the game auto loads one of the checkpoints/previous saves

[LordBlade]

The trauma team could be their explanation for that auto-load.

[Bastila Shan]

Im betting it will just be save/load only because you cant exactly get rescued by trauma team and brought out of an important story mission midway through.

But they would be interesting as a support perk, or maybe you can call in mercs.

i dont save scum like that, unless i really want to know what happens with another option like if it sounds really interesting but not something i would go for normally
