Ok so I was checking out the new posts today and saw a topic that was called hiding a smartlink.
No I did not read it but it brought up a thought for me (OUCH dam thinking hurts). So here it is we now live in a world where wireless is becomeing the best thing to have so question? Will there be a wireless smartlink some time soon? Now by wireless I mean you get the brain implant then you mod out the gun and that is it no cords or wires in your arms. I think this is the next direction cyber would go in some cases and it of course means less essance cost to the user. I know I know .5 essance is not much but hey we as players (or at least most of us) are always happy to find a way to make our characters better so a .5 smartlink is good but a .2 wireless smartlink is better. Also from a game stand point in has it's own built in flaw.... What you say simple signal jammers that can keep a runner from useing his/her smartlink. Anyway just a thought or two look it over toss it around let me know what you think. |
