I couldn’t use Sandy during car missions for El Capitan and I thought it was a bug. I reported it and the next day I found out that it’s not

After creating a [forum thread](https://forums.cdprojektred.com/index.php?threads/whats-the-point-of-being-able-to-use-sandy-in-cars-if-you-cant-use-it-during-el-capitan-car-deliveries.11123218/) about this I’ve also discovered via others that you also can’t use quick hacks.
Honestly this design baffles me. El Capitan’s deliveries are the only reasonable way to get into car combat. The only other way is aggroing the police, but why would you do that? This makes perks such as allowing use Sandy or Quickhacks while driving completely pointless.
This also brings me to weaponized cars. They are also kind of pointless since they are not featured in courier missions at all. At least with those you can pull up to a group of enemies and carpet bomb them with rockets
Let us have fun CDPR plz

No, I can confirm Quickhacks work for the Car Missions. The issue with vehicle quickhacks is that they have to be within a range of 100, uh, feet, meters? It doesn’t say exactly. But relatively close, otherwise they are blocked.
Completely agree with all of this (Quickhacks work fine btw, it’s Overclock that won’t activate during these missions).
Why they wouldn’t allow us to use the tools at our disposal makes no sense to me. I can understand locking out the faceplate to make it more challenging if you catch some stars along the way, but overlock and sandy should absolutely be available.
You can use weaponized car in many missions, so fuck no, they ain’t pointless.
This is what I do, if you get out of the car it ends the call. Sometimes he calls back but just do it again, hard to do when there’s a timer to get there. It’s a pain in the fucking ass when that’s the only time it’s useful to use a sandy while driving. I thought it’d be like Franklin in GTA5 but it’s only there to help shooting. in Edgerunners David can jump an interstate with a car and turn instantly. Big disappointment and a waste of a perk.
Should be moddable, no?
Quickhack’s definitely work for the Push it to the limit missions, as I can Self-Destruct Cars and target enemies both inside and outside of cars.
The support guy is clueless. It works if you leave and enter the car again. Clearly there is something preventing the input to be detected when you steal the car. Could have something to do with Muamar and auto activating his call
Weird because sometimes sandevistan does work for me during the missions.
I get absolutely wrecked in those missions when they start shooting on hard difficulty. Maybe I’m missing some useful perks or something. Also the time limits are so punishing. I only ever get the bonus when it’s just deliver without damage.
Use memory wipe on the drivers and drive off.
Quickhacks work fine. Car quickhacks and quickhacking the individual enemies in the cars/motorcycles.
The only real way to do vehicle combat is via quickhacks. If you use normal guns you probs get shredded. Usually i activate the breaks on a enemy car which is usually enough to get away and force them to despawn.
