Been reading on "that other marvellous SR Forum" about a robocop build and it led me to thinking would it be possible to garage/workshop build something resembling a T1000 Unit? Whilst the chassis itself would effectively be obvious replacement cyberlimbs and the software to get those talking and cooperating I would expect would be relatively easy as the tricky DNI software would be bypassed/not needed. The only real problem I`m thinking would be writing from scratch a Pilot program and Autosofts for your new toy?
Of course I`m not imagining for a second that 2073 Agent/Pilot programs are
even close to the capabilities of Terminators in the movies or TV shows.
I`m thinking more of a gang stealing a shipping container of Armenian knockoffs of popular Japanese manservant drones thinking they have a crate full of slow moving easy to topple bipedal coffee makers. Then thinking Home Security Options must be a cute mistranslation and why were these being shipped to Lagos, wherever that is?
A Steel Lynx patrolling is an obvious deterrant but a bipedal drone pointing a rifle at you seems to have a bit more of a clear "No Unauthorised Entry" message.
Damn, I`m losing my second Initiative Pass. Off to the fridge for another coke.
