A higly intelligent individual, who is quite possibly an Artifical Intelligence decides to attempt to make the human race extinct. Shortly thereafter, mysterious accidents happen with technological systems and new machines attack this city. I'd say there is a good chance of a link.Quote:

These machines have to be built somewhere, that can be destroyed.Quote:

Edit: Not saying that any of these is easy however,
Or perhaps we have to accept HIOB's harrasment as another part of life, much like mutant raids, anarchy breed robberies and so on.

I've seen these bots walking around the milbase, needless to say i was very surprised. Though their threatening apearance and weapon attachments it seemed they had some malfunction in targeting system - otherwise i can't complain why these things didn't fire, except some few shots in a minute. I've never seen such robots or similar designs within Neocron, Tech Haven, the Milbase or the Dome - which brings me to the conclusion there is a player in the background with enough infrastructure and potential to manufacture these things. However this person or these people either lack combat knowledge or are still in early stage production - that's why the Robots were an annoyance but not realy deadly.
Behind HIOBs latest threat in his hackings, for me he's the main suspect.
I don't care much for political inflictions but as soon as it's harming business the fun is over and we'll get serious.
I'm coming round to this way of thinking since you first mentioned it, HIOB could well be some kind of death circuit or digital infection ;)Quote:

Its ofcourse always posible that this is something completely new. Someone whos yet to show himself.
As for HIOB, if he is an AI someone needs to do some fixing in his language code. The guy can barely articulate himself.
Edit: Any specualations as to his full name btw? Inoticed the end of his latest hack whas signed -Hiron Obtra...
(ooc: Tbh you should read the magazines, then you would see, what "Hiron Obtra" means. And "..." shows, that this sentence wasn't ended, he didn't sigend his hack - he didn't finish it :P)Quote:
