What are the more sexually erotic types of infection that would actually be appealing to someone that has been living on Mars for 20 years and isn't an exsurgent?
>>47869733
I hope one day the people who got together to write Eclipse Phase see this question and realise what they've done; the logical conclusion to everything they have done leads to a group of strangers on an anonymous image board discussing sexually erotic infections on Mars.
>>47869794
Send them a link to this thread then.
>>47869842
No. I'd like a few more books for Eclipse Phase to come out before they're completely demoralised and disillusioned by the horrors they've unleashed.
>>47869895
So you're going to wait 5 years?
>>47869920
It makes me wonder how dated the game will seem in five years time really. Eclipse Phase was released in 2009, so it's almost seven years old already. How long will it be before the technology seems weird and kind of dated?
In five years time, or ten years time, will we be chuckling about how Eclipse Phase didn't predict the rise and eventual ubiquity of certain bits of technology? Will we be looking back at this in the same way we look at, say, the old Cyberpunk 2020 RPG, I wonder.
>>47867170
In "Seed AI". The "A" stands for "Artificial".
>>47868225
It's clearly semi-auto.
>>47870236
Maybe. On the other hand Eclipse Phase technology is magic and can do pretty much anything.
>>47869920
>>47869895
The devs probably won't be able to even for a while after Trump becomes president because it will just be like wow I mean don't these people know it's the current year, so if you do plan on trolling them I advise you to do it now while they're still able to react.
>>47870631
>On the other hand Eclipse Phase technology is magic and can do pretty much anything.
I was thinking more along the lines of, let's say, what if something came along and challenged successfully the smartphone model? If the Internet-of-Things doesn't really take off? If 3D printing is relegated to the history books as a non-starter? The predictions that Eclipse Phase makes about the trajectory of consumer technology seems like a fairly safe bet, but I presume that the writers of early cyberpunk fiction considered that wires and tape-drives were future-proof safe-bets too. Oh, and mohawks.
>>47870236
>In five years time, or ten years time, will we be chuckling about how Eclipse Phase didn't predict the rise and eventual ubiquity of certain bits of technology? Will we be looking back at this in the same way we look at, say, the old Cyberpunk 2020 RPG, I wonder.
What happened there?
>>47871263
we laugh at how everyone was plugging their brains into their guns
>>47870899
We laugh at the idea of progressive muslims. Wait. We do that now.
>>47871263
>What happened there?
Consumer technology moved in a direction that the game didn't, so it seems kind of dated. You've got fancy pocket calculators, pocket televisions and digital audio recorders that are "the size of two paperback books stacked flat". A modern science fiction game is more likely to go "you've got some sort of personal, portable computer that can do all these things", because that's pretty much where we are at these days.
I guess it's the problem with all science fiction stuff really - you've got to ground it in modern day of the time of writing so it's generally accessible, and extrapolate from there. Just wonder how long it'll take for Eclipse Phase to get to the point where we look at it and go "why would anyone bother with nanofabrication when we've got plumbuses?".
It sucks that we aren't allowed to touch any of the stuff in this setting without getting space AIDS.
>>47875731
Just don't go anywhere in the AA and you'll be fine most of the time.
>>47875802
But anon, the AA is everywhere. They are legion, and they neither forget nor forgive.
>>47876046
That's not right at all.
>>47876111
Then why does everyone and everything I see burst into gribblies as soon as I see them?
>>47876151
Are you drunkposting?
>>47876180
No. I'm totally sober.
>>47876210
Then you're just normally shitposting.
Would a collapsible airship morph offer any significant advantages over a conventional Kite morph?
>>47876920
not really. Also that's unfappable even for airplane porn.
>>47873923
It's particularly noticeable in cyberpunk because the setting deals mostly with the near future. After thirty years of reading about how this or that technology or social trend is just ten years away you begin to get a bit sceptical about the predictive skills of writers.
Looking back at the various editions of Shadowrun is pretty illuminating as to how our attitude to technology has changed. In first edition computers are mysterious and a bit scary and only for use by specialists. Even the simple act of making a phone call could require a side adventure to locate a working pay phone. By the 4th edition deckers were barely a thing and everyone could use their comlinks to wirelessly hack anything.
I wonder what disruptive technology will be making our games look dated in another 20 years
>>47873923
Hardened-against-emp electronics would be a great excuse for everything being so bulky, and also why you need a separate device for everything. Like the bulky, eighties-ish devices in Alien Isolation. Keep that in mind for more classical interpretations of cyberpunk, and as an excuse to run your Eclipse Phase game with such anachronisms.
>>47878881
The whole intergrate everything into one gizmo idea is pretty new. The best example of hilariously redundant technology I can think of is Star Trek TNG and their data slates. Can build a warp drive, can't store two documents on one device
>>47878881
The problem with that in Eclipse Phase is that basically everything is already really EMP hardened.
>>47882210
>The problem with that in Eclipse Phase is that basically everything is already really EMP hardened.
Except the way that they hardened them was by using the words "optical computing" and "Faraday cages" like they're fucking magic.
>>47882365
when it comes to EMPs yeah a fucking faraday cage is pretty much all you need and you're safe.
>>47882420
Please tell me how you're supposed to have your components protected by Faraday cages while you're also using wireless energy transfer and are constantly connected to the mesh.
>>47876920
That's fucking disgusting.
>>47882484
To be fair, it does say that EMP will burn out your antennas
>>47883830
It says nothing about how batteries and laser emitters and sensors are shielded. Anyway, shielding from EM is dependent on the intensity. To shield against higher intensities, you need thicker conductors, which adds weight and bulk. Ectos, for example, would be completely fucked by an EMP grenade, since there's no way that something that thin could be adequately shielded.
>>47884119
Uh no, the ecto would be protected by a Faraday Cage. Learn to hard sci-fi, idiot.
>>47886032
Faraday cages are 100% effective against electrical fields, not against electromagnetic fields, sophomore.
>>47886159
Ignore him everyone, he's just a Jovian flat, they probably don't even teach physics there.
>>47884119
An EMP that intense would also cook human flesh. You may as well use a frag grenade.
>>47886391
>they probably don't even teach physics there.
But we do. We call it Catholic physics.It's troll physics with gratuitous crosses and Virgin Marys.
>>47886159
Faraday cages will work against magnetic fields if you build them right. Thick conductors with small holes.
Also,
>100% effective
>>47878881
>and as an excuse to run your Eclipse Phase game with such anachronisms
While it'd involve mutilating the timeline of the game a fair bit, I'd want to run a game where players chase down a drifting, derelict ship laden with anachronistic technology, and the subsequent hunt for someone with the knowledge of how to successfully recover the data from the old tape drives on board. Failing that, I suppose, it could just be run as a simulation for training purposes, or something. Good old simulations, enabling holodeck-episode style breaks from your regular campaign of finding exsurgents, working out where their faces are and then trying to shoot them in it.
>>47887830
My favourite part of science class was the New Testament.
>>47887875
read >>47884119
for EMP protection, it's more practical to use a solid conductor, which is why it wasn't mentioned.
>>47873923
Superconductor-based quantum computing instead of quantum optics. Much more efficient and easier to miniaturize.
>>47876151
Because you're the infected one, not them, Typhoid Mary.
one of my players has an idea for a character [which would be played by two characters]
one is a tinker/infiltration type. good with her hands, skilled and so on
the other is a disembodied AI which fucks shit up digitally. sorta djinni style.
She suggested having a small, robotic body which the usually disembodied form utilizes. What'd be a good shape to use? is there a cat or raven body which i haven't seen?
>>47892591
Why is this one character? This is just two characters, one of whom uses the ghostrider of the other a fair amount.
If you want a fancy cat-like body, a Wobblycat from Firewall is pretty primo. There's also the Blackbird, a *really* stealthy robo-raven.
>>47892894
yes
>one of my players has an idea for a character [which would be played by two characters]
i did mean players instead of characters.
is blackbird in firewall?
>>47893015
The Blackbird's from Transhuman, page 189 I think
I'm still a little confused about what would make them a single character. Are they partners or something?
>>47893376
single character concept, played by two characters and two players. players coordinating their concepts and stuff
Quick question: Does the synthmorph vector thrust mobility option allow me to navigate in vacuum or do I need an EVA pack for that? The book mentions rotorfans or something and that sounds like it needs air around it...not looking for rocket boosters, just sort of maneuvering jets.
>>47894247
It sounds like it needs atmosphere, but at the same time many systems like Ionic and Rotorcraft explictly say they do not work in vacuum. I feel like it'd be weird for them to be no vacuum-possible mobility systems in the core book, but worst comes to worst, you can probably install the Gas Jet System (I think that's in sunward) on a synthmorph.
>>47894247
If you just need maneuvering jets, there's the gas jet system which definitely works in space. Thrust Vector is kind of ambiguous, but probably doesn't.
>>47893431
I still don't see how that makes them somehow single concept. There's one guy with a ghostrider module, and then there's a different guy who lives in other guys ghostrider module. This is literally what 99% of infolife characters do if there's no mesh or it's compromised, unless they get a portable server for more horsepower.
_Every_ player coordinating their character concepts together has been the default in all my groups.
>>47895190
If you're running a Firewall campaign, part of the purpose is to have a motley set of characters with completely different points of view, but with the same overarching goal.

New to the system and the setting, I just showed this character sheet to the GM and he asked me how she might end up involved in adventure-y stuff. Can any of you help me justify it?
>>47864464
Implying the Ultimates aren't.
>>47900039
How are you making that character sheet? It's a fucking mess. Just use point buy like a normal person.
>>47902022
I was told packages would be easier but I'm recreating the sheet with the original method now.
>>47870899
Sci-fi tends to underestimate the potency and ubiquity of a technology, or elsewise predict obvious nonsense or fail to predict something.
It's most likely that all the technologies EP features will come to pass, and become as common as personal computers. 'The dream' will be killed by social and legal regulation, not technical infeasibility.
Which is the striking issue that EP brings up. When social and legal regulation can no longer keep nuclear bombs out of the hands of terrorists, you either turn into a police state or ISIS. We can talk about peaceful anarchist communities all we want, but the truth is that the anarchists function because every one of them is devoted to making it work and agrees with the general ideology of anarchism.
EP depicts what might happen to our Earth - apocalypse brought upon us by street-corner WMD's. The few who surive in space are the rich or the technical people who serve them - few are scum, some of whom founded a colony on an exoplanet where rape and murder is legal.
EP depicts a frighteningly possible world - a world we know is possible because it was our past. A world of slavery, prostitution, drug use, elitism, gang warfare, tribalism, child labor, pedophila, terrorism, and apocalyptic cults who think the TITANs are going to come finish the job any day now.
>>47902939
>EP depicts what might happen to our Earth - apocalypse brought upon us by street-corner WMD's.
That's not at all what caused the apocalypse.
Is it possible to get a happy ending here?
>>47902939
Ultimately though I think the setting is a hopeful one. Yes the worst happened, the world ended but transhumanity lives on. Greed, complacency, bigotry and all the other problems that caused the Fall still remain but people still fight against them.
New societies spring up in amazing diversity united in their determination not to repeat the past. Explores step beyond the solar system to find wonders and terrors in equal measure.
Yes the future is frightening.
Yes things can always get worse.
No you don't have to sit there and take it.
Extinct is coming.
Fight it
>>47904791
Yeah it just costs a little bit extra.
>>47902939
>child labor
Is it child labor if the egos are adult ones and the boss makes you sleeve in kiddy pods for the sweatshop?
>pedophila
Basically same question, and does it change if the oligarch is the one in the neotenic?
>>47900039
Still would like help with this, more because of the backstory than the stats.
>>47909098
If she has a skill that's not completely mundane, like research, give a reason why she has it. If she has high skill or a specialization, give a reason for those too.
>>47905622
>greed, complatency, biggotry
Biggotry doesn't actually seem that bad in comparison to the other flaws from a survivalist standpoint. Complatency is the most deadly, and is pretty much why the AnComs are fucked. Two hours a week of shit that needs to be done followed by masturbation the rest of the time doesn't make for a lot of progress. At least the 40 hour work week is more likely to be for something productive.
>>47909451
I think the point of the small "work week" is that Anarchists are free to fuck around and do whatever they like - which involves plenty of dicking around with science and technical stuff.
>>47902478
Packages is a little easier if you aren't sure what you're making mechanically. That said, you should translate the packages into a regular character sheet for readability.
>>47902939
>some of whom founded a colony on an exoplanet where rape and murder is legal.
Recreational rape and murder, between consenting adults. You have to sign consent forms to go to those places though.
>>47904156
Earth was already in really hot water before the TITANs went hot. WMD proliferation and international posturing for WW3, which meant little wars everywhere.
The TITAN's names give a clue to their original purpose Total Information Tactical Awareness Network. I suspect the TITANs were originally built to keep an eye on weapons proliferation in a world where you need 2000 tons of Uranite Ore and a self-replicating machine the size of a washing machine to make a nuke, or skip all that and just make a chemical/biological/nanotechnological weapon.
>>47909451
You're deluded if you think the anarchists only actually work the mandatory two hours a week. They have their own version of the rat race with pursuing their 5th, 6th, 10th PHD, checking out and/or making new art (Anarchists fucking love art, they're a bunch of hipsters), shitposting on community BBS about new proposals, politicking and being seen with the right people, writing polemics about how the Peoples' United Workers Bloc is a shit and everyone should join the United Worker Community Bloc, and the occasional bout of Mandatory Recreational Elective Community Bonus Duty if hab maintenance is REALLY going down the tubes. They're busy little fucks.They still need to be removed and purged, but at least they stay busy
>>47910706
The super weapon proliferation thing wouldn't have come anywhere near close to wiping out humanity. Everyone was both too good at destroying each other and keeping themselves from being destroyed. The global war had already started before the TITANs made the scene, but it had a minute fraction of the actual casualties.
>>47904129
>>47910361
Except it's mostly directionless and is much slower to answer to increases in demand. It's simply inefficient.
>>47909383
I don't need help making a backstory, I was asking for help with justifying why she would end up involved in adventure-y stuff. The GM hasn't given much info on what the game will be about so I don't know if the PCs will be members of Firewall or not.

Absolutely Degenerate
Wait. Do the Ultimates have a word for stuff that is un-Ultimate? There needs to be one, and we need an Absolutely X macro with a Remade.
>>47926243
'Degenerate' sounds appropriate.
>>47926243
They do like calling everyone genetrash, but that's not a verb.
>>47926348
>verb
I mean, an adjective. Because X is usually an adjective.
>>47926362
"Trashy" just doesn't have any bite.
Should we make a list of all factions, subfactions, other such groups, permute them, and make a chart to fill out?
>>47926243
Well, if you want to be literal, antonyms to "Ultimate" are words like "least" or "auxiliary", but they'd probably have something more cultural.
Ultimates got their start in India and Central Asia, right? Probably a loanword from one of their host cultures, like saying "Absolutely Untouchable".
>>47926437
I don't want to deal with connotations of words in languages I don't know. Sounds like a pain in the ass.
>>47926362

How about, "One of the fans of my XPs exploded into gribbly things at a meet and greet! This party stopped things from getting out of hand, so I should stick with them until I can pay them back"?

Some guy on the EP Forums apparently converted some more realistic GURPS materials to EP to build combat spaceships and space war stuff. Haven't looked at the actual documents yet, but the summary is interesting anyway.
>>47931382
No joking, those things kill your brain.
>>47931420
At one point, there was someone converting everything to gurps. Dunno how it went, since I only read that thread on accident and the forums are cancer.
>>47931993
>the forums are cancer
So stop reading them you silly sausage
>>47932112

I'm pretty sure this was actually converted back our of GURPS to d10.

Do you think that fantasy media after the fall went back to Tolkien formula? I doubt that after 60+ years of crisis on earth and the fall general public would want to bother with grimdark.
One of the PCs is a entusiasth VR player so I want to flesh it out.
>>47929231
you're a kind anon, the other guy didn't get the point, i wanted a cheap version of the game cause i can't pay for the shipping. I'm from Chile.
Sadly i can't find what you're talking about
>>47932328
Nice try, Timmy. You're not being let out even if you're going by "Timmantha" now.

What do you think Doug Dimmadome is doing in the Transhuman Future?
>>47933374
Should the Dimmadome be a dome hab on Luna, Mars, or somewhere else?
>>47933405
With his outfit, it has to be martian.
>>47933650
You're right. Gotta have 10 gallon hats and string ties on Mars.
>>47933405
the dimmadome is on luna, its still run by doug, the only remaining holdings of a minor hyperelite whose fortune only kinda survived the fall
>>47933840
While it kind of fits in that way, >>47933650 has a point in that Texans should be on Mars.
Sorry new to the setting, but what's the point of living in the real world if you can do whatever you want in VR?
So most of you guys read the book in front of your screens?
>>47933894
If we knew that, we wouldn't be here.
>>47933894
Squishy meat people still need to eat and drink and make money to pay for VR. Or do work to contribute to society so they can access free VR, whatever.
>>47933894
The response at your question is Moravec, in the book Gatecrashing. I suggest you don't read the game information section if you aren't going to GM

>Controlling decentralized microfacturing through regulation
About as likely as an end to software piracy
>>47935778
You can regulate fissile material.
>>47936047
That's necessarily for extremely few technologies, and it's still nearly impossible to do if people can manufacture their own isotope separation devices (the control of which is the current obstacle to nuclear proliferation). Uranium isn't exactly rare.
>>47936705
Try hiding all of that power usage and torque in space.

Stop fucking triggering me with this garbage. Archaic or relatable technology or designs to 21st century humans in Eclipse Phase does not exist. There are no monitor screens, no posters, no magazines anymore. Robots consuming oil is stereotyping synthmorphs, they only use nanomachines for maintenance. If you're not using the most optimal, high-tech solutions for everything you're literally biocon trash, or inner system drones.

Stop denying the proud primitive-synth lifestyle. Some people want to get back to their roots, that's all.
>>47937528
If you perpetuate hypercapitalism or hierarchical forms of government not modeled after the Titanian Commonwealth in the post-scarcity age then yes, you are doing it wrong. There's a reason why the Autonomists won the Battle of Locus against the hypercorp shills.

Extropia isn't in the AA. Most of the people living there are. Extropia is not a prescriptive political entity.
>>47939469
It already exists, the Morningstar Constellation.
>>47940480
the extropians then, leave the AA, you pedantic waste of assembler stock.

It's a small price to pay for their "sovereignty" :^)
Will immortality make old people less crappy voters?
>>47942670
No, they'll just never die.
>>47942670
In some ways. For instance, they'll care about things other than healthcare and social security, and will be concerned about future economic repercussions. On the other hand, they'll still suck in other ways and they'll keep voting instead of dying.

So I recently got my boyfriend into Shadowrun and he's really liking it. I want to run Transhumanity's Fate for him, but he has an irrational hatred of space and thinks it's too high-tech for him to like it.
Any advice?
>>47945520
So don't put him in space. Mars has been colonized long enough for people to have lived there for their entire lives. Martian city domes are very classic cyberpunk - the only thing your missing is magic (except, y'know, the Zone and TITAN Artifacts are a thing).
If he complains about being off planet being "too high tech", remind him there were offworld colonies and space wars in the backdrop of Bladerunner too.
>>47945549
And there is also a mars colony in shadowrun (and a moon colony) which is "possibly" overrun by a mind rewriting nanomachine enabled disease.
How does /epg/ like the Fate rules, anyway?
I'm a huge fan. Just wish it had more Morphs.
>>47945520
Dump him
>>47945666
I don't really like FATE, and actually like the normal rules, so I don't really care. I appreciate that it exists though, because I know a lot of people who don't really like the EP ruleset.
>>47945082
So paperclip maximizers are a literal thing in EP now.
Are the modern standards ofcutenessstill relevant in 10AF
>>47946177
Depends on the hab.
>>47945520
Just tell him that nanotech is magic. Alternatively, call him a faggot.

I'm not sure if you can get an RPG for that boss fight, but it's probably okay. Other than that Laughing Octopus has a chameleon coating system and attacks you in a small house, anyway.
