Nero Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Arch has said that the countries are being run in the style of their most prominent players, so dealing with the Swiss or the Japanese are definite no-nos.

Nexaduro Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 No worries, Arch. And yes Nex made some mistakes, but his intentions were good (though we didn't know that at the time). He'll be let back onto the ship. But gathering intel for this swiss <.<Thankee, Dusty. And I'm only doing some simple base scans on the human-inhabited planets. Not much, but it's the most plausible way to net myself an AI of my own. I think I might like to be the Forensics officer rather than Quartermaster/Diplomat, seeing as people probably don't trust me around weapons and Fox has given me a bad rep. 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?

Seraphi Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I'll make my decision to trust you, Nex. Just don't betray that trust again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retech Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Just a request, but no one sell the schematics for the gamma pulse torpedoes or the graviton hellbores. I intended them as ship-crew only weapons, so if some empire is using them outside the ship, I'll keep weapon designs stored safely somewhere on the ship, and I'll distribute those weapons upon request. I am already doing this with chemical weapons, since having two people using them is unlikely to be any better than one. If even these measures are not sufficient, then I'll keep the weapons a secret and inform the captain and co-captain. --- Look, it's Arch! Master of your domain?

The_Mather1 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 If you make anything small, explosive and self propelling then I can add a launcher for it on my PDW. Twitter: @TheMather1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icuownage Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 All schematics by me, are now copyrighted by the Federov CO, anyone I see selling or distrubuting without a lisence will be in trouble. By trouble I mean I'll shoot your knee caps out. Mine are Stealth lvl 4Shotguns - The anti proton shotgunSnipers - The lvl 1 sniper that killed a presidentScopes - The lvl 1 scopes on the anti proton rifles and pistolsSearing Blade It's a REALLY big shaft.I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?

Jehosaphat Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 All my schematics are... wait, I never drew schematics. And most of my creations have only one or two in existence, explode when activated, and/or are on my person at all times. So there's really no chance to take my work and distribute it without my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Mather1 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I can make PDWs for other people is they're good enough. I may also lisence a single producer to mass produce it in return for sponsoring us with both cash and weapons. Twitter: @TheMather1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexaduro Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Ooh, good plan Mather. This game is just fun... especially now that people won't get pissed at me because I have my own AI to torment! :twisted: 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?

Icuownage Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 How'd you get one anyway? Just 1 mission for the Swiss?

Jehosaphat Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I'd rather make my own weapons than have them sent to me by a company. Makes maintenance easier, plus it makes me less likely to be apathetic towards losing it. (not to mention all the weird stuff you can do to it and not worry about a warranty...)

Nexaduro Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Well, it's not an AI, but rather an SIU (Sentient Intelligence Unit). For some reason, I had to pay all my credits for it even though I was promised a full AI and it was implied to be free with completion of the mission. 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?

Seraphi Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Okay, to address all this copyright stuff - Icu, you can't copyright shotguns, and you can't copyright anti proton tech. We had anti proton beams before we started, so I assume it's already been created and is in use on Earth. Scopes can't really be copyrighted unless there is some revolutionary design involved, which, given that it is level 1, there is not. I'm not sure about specifics, but I think the above two also apply to the sniper. You cannot copyright a knife, and you cannot copyright a red hot knife either. Retech, sure, why not. I guess it'll give us an advantage to any hostiles we encounter. Mather, also, sure, why not. If it's good enough for mass production, and we are able to stay ahead technologically, then extra funding would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icuownage Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hmmm I have 50K, I could get one. Unless it costed a lot. What did you do for your mission. Hmmmm, I can, gun companies make their version of guns all the time. Plus I have other plans for these designs, and I prefer people not going near them.

The_Mather1 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 If it's close to good enough then we could co-operate on the Design... anyways how does Alpha Nero sound as a name for the first/prototype version? Twitter: @TheMather1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seraphi Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Basically Icu, I'm asking you to a) allow us to use anything you make, for the good of the ship, and b) Stay one step ahead of anybody we sell tech to. So don't sell anything until we have a better version of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icuownage Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 A) You can use it for the good of the ship, but if you sell it off I'll ask for the person to be imprisoned in their private quaters, and pay a fine (200% of what they got for the weapon) B) My plans are my own, and I wont be selling to anyone except to my beneficiary.

archimage_a Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 God knows. I will just point this out before I go to bed... When the statutory copyright term provided for by the Statute of Anne began to expire in 1731 London booksellers thought to defend their dominant position by seeking injunctions from the Court of Chancery for works by authors that fell outside the statute's protection. If someone breaks copyright then what happens to them...exactly? After all the ISS Unity is one ship with a crew, it couldn't take on an office block in America or China or wherever. http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphi Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Icu, nothing good will come of selling something equal to what we have. If you develop a better version and sell the old version, we gain a technological advantage against any would-be enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icuownage Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Can't remember an office block packing proton missiles. No, that's if I sell to multiple people.

Seraphi Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 If you sell to one person, the design will inevitably become widespread, meaning we may well see our own weaponry being used against us. I only have the good of the ship and it's crew in mind. If we are to be actively engaging in combat, we want as many advantages as possible, and technological is one such advantage.
