a poll..as YR:WZ mod is meant as precursor to RS mod..

Should the early age Nexus project feature as playable side?

[Ash]

The rivers will run red with the blood of Yuri's clones.

[Anarchy87]

Since it is a pre-Robotstorm game, yes sure why not. But perhaps you could change a few structures and units, so you can see how nexus developt as time passed.

[Speeder]

Yeah why not

I accidentally clicked the null vote button ARGH. I've manually added my vote. Go NEXUS!

[Allied General]

wouldn't nexus be allied with the allies then? ...

[Ash]

Technically, yes. But they'd also be allied with the Soviets...

[Allied General]

So really the campaign would be like FS where GDI and Nod face non-controllable CABAL but replace CABAL with Yuri and the Third side is basically NEXUS.

It would be interesting to see I guess the birth of NEXUS by taking control of the allied facility where he was housed to the manipulation causes the civil war which breaks the soviet union apart and perhaps his control of soviet nuclear missile silos and what not such as MircoSpam Campus and Silicon valley for technology leading to armageddon. Although story wise would be hard to "brief" I mean NEXUS wouldn't need briefing when he betrays mankind.

So perhaps a allied legion commander tells the story of how NEXUS conquered the world like a retrospective looking at past review like the animatrix 2nd renassisance did.

In the "soviet" campaign it explains how the freedom league is formed whilsts the allies tell of there story to form a Zion and developments in technology.

Yuri would just appear in like 1 mission where his remaing followers and his base being crushed by allied, soviet and nexus forces

Yuri would be in it, as this is before NEXUS rose to power, only the last few missions should be where he breaks free. The first can be working along side it.

So, Warzone is turning into a RS prequel, eh? I like it. May the ground be stained crimson and oil...

Well, to be honest... RS began loong loong time ago as both in 1..YR sides along RS sides..of course new sides were far superior and AI didnt cope well with all of those sides so I split the project into 2..YR:WZ goes along the YR improvement and the events towards RS to come..little unit hints there and there of nexus evolving or where he got ideas and such... while mostly Nexus was biting his nails to acquire technologies/designs and develop a proper plan..than go instantly CABAL: die humans and be outnumbered fast and shut down..like a overconfident cabal did..

What's funny? This is serious plotline revelations you're getting here.


NEXUS was created to combat Yuri. Indeed, it's the only reason Yuri was defeated (check the RS Manual). Therefore NEXUS should get the chance to combat Yuri.

Once it realised that whilever humans populated the planet there could be no peace, it broke away, taking its robotic army with it. It has since begun a glorious and righteous crusade to eliminate all sentient life on Earth. I figure that since NEXUS has the ability to assimilate knowledge from all computer systems it encounters (and therefore not forget anything), it'd be smarter than God by RS times. Allieds only maintain a technological edge because NEXUS is imitative, not innovative. A lot of his techs are ripoffs of other sides' techs (take the railgun; a cheap rip of the particle cannon, and the plasma weapons being a rip of the FL plasmablasters on the Devastator), but advanced upon.

Now, if NEXUS had any sense, he'd work on ways to toughen the armour of his hovering tanks It's what I'd do.

Plotline?

Yes.

Amusing statement?

Definetly

[Ash]

Ah ok.

Yeah, Cabal revealed his betrayal at absolutely the wrong time.

[Elerium]

I'd say NEXUS is innovative if you ask me, he managed to make a stable improved version to the Allies Fusion tech, Plasma (or was it the FL Devostator cannon?). Yeah he does have a big ego (which leads to overconfidence), but if you ask me I don't think he has the expertise or such to utilise chrono technology like the Allies do. Maybe this was programmed in NEXUS for a reason? But otherwise yes, he has blatently gone around and ripped off everything and threw his own style in it Thats what makes the bugger hard to kill.

And yeah CABAL did do his betrayal at the wrong time.. at least Yuri had an army behind him and several dominators worth before he switched to his own side.

Nexus took only techs which suited him. But in the WZ time period he'd be really backward. You'll be wondering if it's same AI

[OmegaBolt]

What if Einstein knew this would happen eventually, he just under estimated when it would happen and so he did programme it not to be able to use such high technology like Chrono.

[Allied General]

or its not suitable for mass production gotta think simple, no point making a swiss knife when a big blade will do

[OmegaBolt]

NEXUS isnt simple.
