This is what Jack sounds like wether he is speaking English or his native Callisto-German.

[Xantalos]

Clint Eastwood with a Texan accent, then?

Someone needs the voice of that Senator Armstrong guy from that one game about the raspy voice Barbie doll. It's too badass not to.

Metal Gear Rising?

[Xantalos]

Something like that, yeah. I just remember I wanted the villains to win while watching an LP of it, and NANOMACHINES SON.

I just started playing that again, i just beat the french lady and stole her arms.

Had to pick my sister up from the train station so i didnt have time to check their effectiveness as a weapon.

Lars has a calm and approachable sounding voice when talking, though he can turn on the booming voice when he is singing praises.


So I had a thought last night.  I realize making a new type of manip/amp may be far beyond our capabilities, but what if there was an electronic version of the psychokinetic amps?  Something that could sense technology and manipulate it, like a high-powered version of Milno's gauntlet (that lacked the machine-eating and recalling capabilities.)  Something that would allow direct interfacing with nearly any electronic system.

If that allowed EXO rolls to be used instead of AUX rolls the game's flimsy illusion of balance would shatter into a million shards of razor-sharp munchkins, and the space wizards would stab everyone's eyes with them.

Also I don't hink the mind control amps let you sense where people are.  The Endive serial killer had to use people's eyes to spot for him, or the little pigeon bat things at least.


What accent does Saint have?  He just uses black with a black glow.

[Pancaek]

I'm pretty sure PW once said that once you got +3 in exo you could start doing rnd on amps. At least I think he once said that.

As for accents, I'm not sure what navy would be. Wasn't there someone besides Pan who also uses navy? 

[Toaster]

Obviously navy means you talk like a pirate.

Says the person trying to do everything with Aux.

You are correct, though this isn't a huge disadvantage; none of the other amps allow remote viewing either.  To the best of my knowledge, only the mind amps allow you any sort of remote sight (which is of course useless for your first target.)

Exactly!  Currently, exo people can't quite repli-

Wait.  No, I'm just being an idiot.  It's perfectly possible for them to replicate dex/str/con rolls, using a mass amp.  They can manipulate their own body.  It's just horrifically ineffecient, and they'll run out of mind points.  Being able to use a machine as a middle man would only make their supply last a little longer, at best.

For what it's worth, I was saying that they would be able to have all the OP power of AUX, plus the power exo already has.

Ah, I thought you were saying such a tech amp would allow you to sense the location of electronics, which no amp has the power of to our knowledge.

Amp specialists can do that stuff, I guess, but they're kind of an exception.

[Harry Baldman]

I wonder what Stacy sounds like. I've never really assigned him a voice.

[tryrar]

I was reading the past missions, and I have a question: Did anyone ever get an explanation of what faith's task was for mission 10?

Slay the king, basically.

[Pancaek]

Frak, the camo synthflesh only works while the body is naked. Not being able to wear/carry anything to make use if its prime feature seems like a pretty shitty tradeoff for the + 1 to end and str.

On the other hand, going chameleon could be extremely useful on black ops missions.

uuugh, decisions.

[Caellath]

@Pancaek: You could wait until we receive the next black ops mission's description. I, for one, believe more agility means more far more flexibility, though judging by how well synth-flesh fares in almost everything, the stealth version must be really good at what it does.
