Cybernetic modules (small data packages containing programmable RNA databases in conjunction with impressionable brainwave patterns) can be spent at upgrade units to increase your abilities; higher levels cost more upgrade units.
I'm no expert on SS lore, but I would guess that, while cybernetic modules *do* have the potential to turn someone into a super soldier, the user would first need to have already undergone extensive surgery for the corresponding cybernetic implants (R-Grade Cyber rig, remember?).
They're made for cyber rigs. But hacker's neural implant didn't need any cyber modules to be adept at human skills. Why does soldier, with superior cybernetics tech, not capable of even firing a shotgun without two years of training beforehand?I think it's the UNN. They're restricting cybernetics technology because they're afraid of the power of somebody like the SS1 Hacker. So cybernetic rigs are made to operate on a need-to-know/do basis. The UNN issues people cybermodules that have a bit of info on various skills on them, but really act as licenses for the TriOp training devices, which is why "Polito" and SHODAN can "transmit" you cybermods. They're not "actual" cybermods but they pass off as real to the training devices.
Whatever, it's still a quality game, story, experience all-round. Still one of the best.
Well, to me it's pretty clear by now that good ImSims are very hard to do and rarely as popular (read "commercially successful") overall that they are worth the effort for most studios/publishers. I personally still don't understand why they are not seen as the pinnacle of gaming but it's been proven time and time again that the mainstream prefers simpler pleasures / lower hanging fruits.
JDoranHeh. One of those games is not like the others. I once again tried to play Perfect Dark recently and it's just a slightly more interesting Goldeneye, Goldeneye being objectively not particularly good. Not the worst thing ever, but I will lay down the facts if asked.
On that note, I have been recommending it for a while and I will do so again: Play Ashes: Afterglow. A Doom 2 TC. This is top ten FPS material and answers the question: "what if 2000s FPS weren't mediocre/shit?". It is split into two episodes, ep. 1 is competently made but short and won't blow you away. Ep. 2 however is a full-length FPS campaign and takes things to the next level. Good quality works deserve recognition, so check it out.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=659VuXdJm-s&t=01m
