@Fleshknitter, my immediate thought is to use it as a closure technique. So, do some field surgery, then close the wound and place a small amount of it on the wound to seal. Cause the main problem with the fleshknitter is that it's *too* fast. It's more like a super-cancer stimulator than a regen accelerator. Not well suited for excessive application, but pretty good for precision tasks.

All hail the black die!

I warned him that it's not gonna regen complex systems well.

Well that GM video was well worth the watch. And man does Zeno Clash look like a poorly designed game

Might as well spray sticky goop into the wound then. Or duck tape it shut.

Say, who here has watched the new mad max movie?

Because its AWESOME.

Yeah, yeah, but I still wonder how good it would have been were it administered via the suit medystems (if that person was wearing a Mk II instead, for example). Because I still hope that between the human body self-regulation and the controlled micro-injections, it can give much better results.

Or, in the case of puncture like this, carefully applying a bit of fleshknitter on both sides of the puncture - enough to close the wounds, not enough to fill the lung completely.

Well, medifoam (those two might not seal it quite as tight and good) might have been just as suitable for this case, but I did supply the medics with it, didn't I? 
The two major things with the fleshknitter are that 1)it can be administered from the inside, unlike medifoam and whatnot - at least, without solving a couple very big engineering hurdles; 2)it closes the wounds with the same tissue materials, so while it cannot rebuild major organs yet, (according to earlier conversations with Piecewise) it can mend the bones and muscles (and maybe tendons too) and, in general, allow for the blood flow to resume (more or less). And all the more Fun (and usefulness!) if it can do that this fast.

@Kri And, now that I think of it, I agree that it is also very very nice for closing various incisions and cuts made in the course of field surgery - not that such operations are common, but fleshknitter might actually make them viable (especially since this way it'd use up tiny amounts of the substance, so not too expensive). A secondary use (compared to the primary 'DIY' aim), but quite useful nonetheless.

Oooh wait, there's a rescue op? Would I hear that message whilst in VR?
I am totally useful and heroic, I should go save the day.

That's the spirit, you should go and sign up!

You're just saying that because you know what kind of deathtrap the rescue op is, and hoping you can get others to do that so you can go do that safe salvaging. I'm on to you!

[Xantalos]

It's not really a shallow ploy; we're all morally with Yoink here.

Indeed. A bunch of ill-equipped misfits have to try and be big damn heroes for once - it's the stuff that good times are made of.

Besides, maybe if we (or they, if I do get on the salvage team) all succeed we'll get loads of hazard pay, because I foresee this'll be pretty hazardous indeed.

I wonder of Steve will send along some sods, we have a whole bunch lying around. I do kinda wonder what the combat guys are for, seeing as how we still have a bunch of them ourselves. Maybe you'll get to borrow some equipment, would certainly help ("a bunch of LESHO's? Why yes, thank you!")

Could just give the shuttles some turrets/weapons for the aux people.

"do i need to leave the ship after rigging the bombs?"

I know what you mean, but this could also be interpreted as you wanting to ride the nuke to the surface of the planet. I found that mental image funny.

[Radio Controlled]

Man, this mission would have been perfect for one of the air support shuttles. And an artillery ship to lure the planet to uwm space. Though maybe we can still try the second later on.
