« on: 08. April 2011, 14:35:20 »Atropos:
Norris joins the Many, so perhaps it is safe to assume that his death occured at the location of transformation into the mindless zombie (place of "A worm crawled up my arm and rested on my neck" audio log).
Myers has just a single log regarding the security station's doorlock on RecDeck. Are there any corpses nearby?
Wood joins the Many and enbarks on a quest to "share his crystal shardS with Bronson". If he was killed by her, then his death location could point to one of the weapons' location (Ops bar, if my memory serves me well)
Curtiz has probably been whacked by a hybrid (it may be heard in the log) while trying to "get past that damn turret". I'd vote for any corpse between his log's location and the single slug turret in long corridor under engineering control.
For sure Miller still had to be human to perform the "operation" on Bloome since the only "operation" a hybrid may perform is to crack somebody's skull open. Perhaps afterwards he was disposed of by her, however that's a "waste of a biomass", so maybe he went to the freezer to sabotage the environment regulator 'cause "The specimens are dying" and he felt "somehow compelled to protect them".

Quote by Kolya:
Croker's constantly mentions that he has blown up the ladder to Pod 2 and that "they are cut off from Pod 2" (no wonder why) so for sure he died before the torpedo room. Also, in his last log you may find out he is trying to get to the opposite side of the hull breach to gain access to Nacelle B. Perhaps he was killed on the way or fell into the void down below?CROKER

I think he's taking pictures of the locations where the corpses are found then placing their log pictures in a corner or something to signify whose body is found in the picture.

« on: 07. April 2011, 20:09:55 »I personally always assumed that corpses where largely placed like in a "haunted house" amusement ride - for atmosphere, not so much to depict specific persons. When I learned that people actually managed to identify a lot of the former crew I was rather surprised.
Sorry, I guess that's not too helpful.

« on: 07. April 2011, 18:29:10 »At the moment I'm wasting my time by placing pictures of the crewmembers into the locations where they ended their lifes. This raised some questions:
- Are there any exact loactions for Norris, Myers and Wood?
- Where excactley did Juan Curtiz die?
- Which Malone died where?
Then i wondered myself; if this is really Doctor Miller in the frozen area in hydroponics, then who killed him?

« on: 26.

Players took their characters through a career development path (usually in the military) where the character rolled for different assignments and gained extra skills, rank and retirement benefits.
I take it you mean you'll play the board game and add some SS2 influences, right?plan to run a Traveller-based version of SS2

« on: 26. August 2010, 14:10:37 »I don't know if anyone caught this ... but crewman Marc Miller is most likely an homage to the real-world Marc Miller http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_W._Miller who created the roleplaying game Traveller. Apparently, the character generation sequence of SS2 is very much based on Traveller.
That being said, I am finally finishing this game and plan to run a Traveller-based version of SS2 at upcoming game cneventiosn here in Michigan this year.

« on: 16. September 2008, 18:20:13 »I thought that Korenchkin became the Brain of the many (the thing you destroy that calls you in the cargo bays in engineering), since one of his logs talks about SHODAN, referring to her as the machine-mother, and when you defeat the BOTM, it says: "Beware of the machine-mother..."
But checking again to the portrait that appears in late-game, it looks like a psi reaver.

re: Resist
"They've killed my men and now they've killed me. I'm holding my guts inside of me with both hands. I'm almost done... resist. This is bigger than my little life, the lives of my men and the lives of the people I was forced to kill. Resist. Humanity demands it! Resist!"
The thing with Diego is right. He is lying on the ground (or ceiling), his corpse in a bad shape (full of blood because of the emergency operation) and there are some spiders around. The thing is that it is possible that you killed him by reversing the gravity!
BTW: did you notice that Bayliss, the guy who brought SHODAN to the ships (by taking the artifact with him), is the same guy who gives you the drill in the beginning of the game!
Here's the proof from the Level01.STR-file in the string.CRF-file:
LogName24:"TRAINER 02.06.11\nre: Test message\n"
LogPortrait24:"Bayliss"
LogIcon24:"RickIcon"

« on: 09. April 2008, 21:24:52 »I'm not quite sure, that Bronson took out her guts to avenge being transformed into a cyborg. For me it sounds as if she was wounded and knows now that she's finished, because shel holds her guts in her hands.

« on: 27. March 2008, 18:20:02 »Two questions I have for you :
1. How do we know that Polito comitted suicide and wasn't killed?
2. I got an email from Diego at some point telling me to meet him somewhere on the UNN Rickenbacker (don't remember exactly where anymore). I never saw him or heard from him again until the game was over. Was there anything to discover that I missed?
