Can't find dead body

[Simon]

I'm in Chapter 15 (post game) and I got a message from Deadman saying there was a dead body nearby for collection, but I can't find it on the map. Is this a bug? What should I be looking for?

Kill somebody - then burn corpse.

Also check Eastern (or Central ) region. Probably dead body is here.

Maybe need to kill MULE in Eastern region, try it too.
Have you completed Cyberpunk crossover order with dead porter?

Check the message. I can't remember receiving this but it should give a locale.

Mh, in my case there was only one mission with a dead body I had to find in the environment, but that was part of Jackie Welles` (guy from Cyberpunk 2077) questline...

Is it possible that you accidentally killed an npc? I am not sure, but If you didn`t find his body, it could trigger a voidout with a massive crater afterwards...

If you didn`t find the body and want to prevent this incident, you must reload an older savepoint...as far as you still know the point of time of the "accident".

Better use bola-guns or other non-lethal weapons next time...and use your truck only for non-violent deliveries - I put on the brake for MULES too !

I don’t think I accidentally killed an NPC because you usually get the message as soon as it happens. In this case I was in the mountains (central region) nowhere near a mule camp and the voice message came via the odratek.

I kept avoiding the dead body and then it went necro and it’s game over, so I really need to make finding the body a priority, like he says.

Deadman says he put a marker on the map but I can’t see anything. If I don’t get this sorted I won’t be able to finish the final two deliveries I need to unlock all the achievements.

I had accepted the final Cyberpunk-related delivery, but I put off doing it because it was quite tough on the hardest difficulty. Could it be related to that?

I’m really at a loss if I can’t get this dead body thing sorted.

I had one panic moment where I ran over a mile with their own truck and he fell in the water. I’ve never killed anyone so I didn’t know it gives a message. Apparently their outfit autpdeploys a life vest.*wipes sweat off brow*
I have yet to have anyone die from running them over, but then again I never boost when doing it unless going from a dead stop.

i'm pretty sure it's impossible to kill MULEs and terrorists in one hit from a truck or bike, it seems to always knock them out the first time, boosting or otherwise
if you hit them a second time, whether they're unconscious or they've been revived by friendlies, then they are killed

Ah ok, cool. Usually if I take one out I’m in the process of eliminating all of them so as long as I’m carful not to run them over again I should be fine then, since I don’t let them revive.
Not looking forward to having to find a body for a mission though, the first incinerator run was nerve wracking enough, lol.

Found it. It's an orange symbol (like mule trucks) and I had to turn most of the others off to see it. Now hopefully I can burn it in time.

So I just figured out that if you have a void-out from a dead body, when you reload a game the dead body is gone and there doesn't appear to be any consequences. It's not like a void-out from BTs where the landscape becomes a crater. Is that so?

If so, it appears to a minor inconvenience at best. I was worried that my saved games would be destroyed and there'd be no way to recover the body in time in any of my saves.

So it seems like it's best to avoid, but not the end of the world if it happens.

I had read that the area would recover eventually but I didn’t know the timetable it would take nor the consequences it would bring. Wonder if you can permanently eliminate mules like that 🤔

I feel like it did affect the mule camp a bit, but I can’t be sure.

Look for an orange symbol on your map that looks like a face with an point on the bottom. I learned the hard way that, when you're given that message, you better find thet corpse. I couldn't find it, and was delivering the Anti-matter bomb when the Voidout happened...game over.
