Futuristic EDENSEED: The Genesis War

Cool.

 

[Imperator Penguin]

@Windows98 didn't you already post that earlier?

 

[Solid_Glass]

Did I? It was faded in gray for me so I thought I didn't. @Imperator Penguin

 

[Solid_Glass]

Okay I did post it twice. I fixed it.

 

[Sincerely Me]

Confused me for a second too.. Pun intended!

 

[Soviet Panda]

OH! I get it. He he. Funny.

 

[Sincerely Me]

You had me staring at that pic for a couple of seconds waiting too xD

 

[Soviet Panda]

xD

@Sincerely Me I feel like I should point out that Neil is a giant man child. I'm going to edit my CS in a little bit

 

[Sincerely Me]

hahah! Its up to you I have no issues with character, but if i do see something queer, I'll just point it out IC. Its much more interactive tht way. Don't take it personally!

 

[Throne Trinity]

I just added a final weapon to Dynames

 

[Issa22]

Will post tonight. Been a rough week. Sorry.

 

[Sincerely Me]

@Throne Trinity I appreciate the effort. But tbh, I didn't really like the idea. But I was mulling away on trying to figure out an alternative. The initial plan was to let things run for one battle first, before updating you on it. It looks like you just went and added it though.


No worries, just leave it there for now; no need to erase the post. But for the coming battle, just assume you do not have that melee weapon

Fair enough. My bad : /

 

[Sincerely Me]

All good, no big deal. I understand it may seem like I've forgotten about it. I should've just told you earlier.

 

[Issa22]

@Sincerely Me sincerely this might have been asked and if it has I apologize. Whats the piloting like. Is it like gundam where it's nuerolinked or like linebarrels of iron and we pilot it with joysticks etc.

 

[Sincerely Me]

Abit of both. Cockpit design is up to you. It definitely is neurolinked, though it's significantly less advanced than a complete synchronisation where the machine basically becomes you.


You still kinda do need to press buttons and dials and such, but specifically for EVEs, pilots do feel some sensation. Neurolinking basically makes the EVE more responsive and synchronised to the pilot. Drawbacks is that if you do take damage, you 'feel' a certain degree of the pain. You will not die, but may experience blackouts are at most severe cases, brain damage.


Because of machine limitations, the way the systems are neurolinked between EVE classes are different. Scouts rely most on movement and therefore are most tightly linked to the pilots. Atlas and artilleries are the least, for a few reasons. Their systems and machination, particularly in regards to movement, are highly restricted. If pilots were as tightly linked as scouts, you would perpetually feel sluggish and probably feel a high degree of dislocation; where your perceive brain movements are disjointed from the actual movements. For artilleries, loose linking also helps utilise the more stable and reliable aspects of marksmanship coupled with the finesse that comes with the human part of the link. Atlas pilots who undoubtedly will take more damage over time will also experience less cerebral stress, compared to a scout.


The other classes are somewhere in between, depending on their emphasis.

Would the NARC's that were piloted before the EVE's also be neurolinked? Mainly asking in regards to what Brian would have most experiance and be most comfortable with. @Sincerely Me

 

[Sincerely Me]

Nope

 

[Hanzax]

Nice, I guess it wouldn't be unreasonable that Brian preferred the traditional pilotting method & so the cockpit of his EVE was more similar to the NARC's. Could have some interesting implications (possible weapons that target neurolinkage?). Shall add it onto my CS or would it be fine if Gwyn just mentioned it on the runthrough, if @theunderwolf doesn't mind ofc.


@Sincerely Me

 

[Sincerely Me]

More traditional cockpit is fine. What do you bean by weapons that target neurolinkage?


You may add it to your cs

 

[Hanzax]

Thinking more about down the line. The confederation might develop weapons to interfere neurolinkage. More of a theorycrafting thing, been playing too much Path of Exile .

 

[Sincerely Me]

Ah, that's be an interesting plot twist. Regardless, like it or not, your Edenseed can only function by synchronising neurally with a specific pilot. Technically speaking, you'd still be significantly affected by such weapons, though at a lesser degree than say a more neurally dependant pilot.

 

[Hanzax]

I agree, slight differences help make things interesting.

 

[Sincerely Me]

@theunderwolf wanna continue with the 'tour'? Otherwise I'll wrap things up for a time skip
