San Francisco Police Department clarified that it would not seek to arm any of its robots with firearms but rather with explosives as an "intermediate force option" that could prove to be lethal.
Lmao, I was naïve enough to think this wasn’t really gonna happen, and the libs weren’t gonna go and endorse dollar store Robocop, but :yea:
Dean Preston remains a tiny dot of light in California politics:
"We’re talking about a sniper in a fully occupied hotel, and the solution... would be to put a bomb-bearing robot to blow up that hotel?" Preston asked about the Vegas scenario. Of the suicide bomber, he asked, “We’re going to use a robot with a bomb to subdue a suicide bomber?”
Just amazing to think the levels of violence that are going to be unleashed on poor people in the next 20 years.
Listen, it's fine. Given the current level of technology, these can probably be disabled with a quick time event. However, as they unlock higher tiers of combat droids, we cannot discount the possibility of a race-against-the-clock hacking minigame in the future.
:ooooooooooooooh: anything but more hacking mini games, I'll take the suicide bomb bots, but please no more hacking minigames
I personally am holding out hope it will be the one from Prey because I liked that little chugging synth music track they had with it
I actually don't mind the Fallout 3/NV hacking minigame
