Cyberweasel89 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 If anyone's played Fallout 2, they might remember Skynet. The supercomputer who refers to himself in the third person. A poor little AI who just wants to get out and explore the world to collect data. All it needs is a cybernetic brain to download into and a robobrain body to move around in. Now, we know Skynet was around during the Chosen One's travels... but who's to say he's not still hanging around the wasteland? As a supercomputer AI in a robot body, he's essentially immortal. Who's to say he didn't make his way to the Mojave Desert after parting ways with the Chosen One? Well... we already have Robobrains in Fallout: New Vegas. It'd just take some companion scripting and possibly an electronic voice reader. Maybe a retexture to make the Robobrain look dirty and rusty. Afterall, Skynet's been traveling for decades since his adventures with the Chosen One. The only thing I see as a problem is... we'd need a set of custom Robobrain animations so Skynet would be able to wield weapons given to him... The Courier could probably run into him deactivated somewhere, and needs, I dunno, Fission Batteries, Conductors, Sensor Modules, Scrap Metal, and Scrap Electronics to get him back in working order, or something. Might be too similar to how ED-E is acquired, so maybe just re-activate him with some Energy Cells and a high enough Science skill. I was super psyched that Marcus was in Fallout: New Vegas (and with his original voice actor too! *fangirl squeal*), but what about Skynet? It's possible he's still around, right? Anyone else think this'd be an epic blast from the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyLordSheogorath Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 So...a ED-E's repair, possibly Rex (If you were to find a new brain for Skynet), and some gun animation and retexture for a robobrain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberweasel89 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Nah, not ED-E's repair. Probably just some Energy Cells and a high enough Science skill. And no, you wouldn't need a new brain for Skynet. You can't get any better than the Cybernetic Brain, while the Bio-Med Gel it's submerged in insures it heals any damage dealt to it. But we'd need some way for a Robobrain model to wield weapons, specifically long-range rifles like the Hunting Rifle, Sniper Rifle, and Gauss Rifle. And possibly a retexture to add a layer of dirt and some rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, what if after 2241 (is that the time period, can't remember), the Courier (who IS the Chosen One's Grandchild, Is the Lone Wanderer AND related to all other protagonists in my world) decided that the cybernetic brain was too much at 121% and want to see how the abnormal brain would work. If you wanted Skynet to use small arms, assault rifle, or heavy weapons, you could just paste them onto it and look away, pretending it's working as you shoot them, rofl.

Gosh, just trying to make small talk... 1. Is Fallout 2 in 2241? (Can't remember).2. In my world, all Fallout protagonists are somehow related3. The cybernetic brain is 121% if I remember correctly4. Somebody may want to see how the abnormal brain would affect Skynet (It was the worst brain selectable)5. Put any firearm other than Scoped Rifles onto the robo-brain body (It was a joke)6. Look away from the deformed robo-brain7. Shoot the weapon you chose to include on the body, pretending the robot was the one doing it (still a joke) And hey, don't say that I'm ruining your thread, if I remember right, I'm the only other poster so far. Take it. Like It. Hate It. Too Bad. No refunds. Edited June 15, 2011 by TheMightyLordSheogorath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klipperken Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 (edited) A normal brain can gather data for aboutish 500 years AND remember it, in continuity.Cyberdude's brain was even "overpowered", making he could learn like what, 700 years in continuity?Not even in 5000 his brain would have been full, I think.Most he sees is already learned anyway. He should be by now like "Mr. Supergenius".The batteries well.... they die out eventually, but I think that Genius would be smart enough to recharge where-ever he could.So you might just run into him, fully working and equipped with weapon X. Know, he will likely be very pissed at humans, considering how crazy they are.Putting bullets in heads for instance, is something he would not appreciate. More, 90'ish % of humaniods he encountered tried for sure to take advantage of him, who wouldn't?So if not like very hostile, he will for sure be extremely weary of the Wanderer. He must by now be a super crack at simply everything.Super shot, super hacker, super "fill in your onw thing".In the end, he is still learning, adapting, and god knows what else.... Simply put: Einstein in a bottle, without the "exploded madras hairdo"..... Oh, and OF COURSE super cynical and dark humored... *grins* BWAHAHAHAHA!Make him into a "Einstein Model HK47", hating them meatbags... PS: the quest to gain him should be extremely hard.Like 100 Speech, 100 Tech, ... required to convince him, you're not all that bad.Unless you are, then you deserve to be shot.Logically...

laochra Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Hey, wouldn't be that hard to do as long as somebody provided the voices, All you need is to make a Robo Brain and the companion bit ain't to hard. You would need a voice actor thou, for some reason, a soothing female voice sounds right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klipperken Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Skydude was I think a male?Could be wrong... Still having Skynet at your side would be a bit OP, no?Not that I would care, if you got the skills... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
