You guys talk about serious "military" stuffs, except those military stuffs are so wrong at basic physics that even typical cheap fantasy novel setting would be more realistic than Battletech universe, where mechs with such tonnage that would float on water and some vehicles that would float in air like a balloon. One mentions how agile mechs are, particularly light mechs that can do gymnastic maneuvers, like nimbly using their arms to roll over the ground and get up, while others portray mechs as incredibly cumbersome. except they are not coherently presented. It is literally 80s teenager boys' fantasy, with all of weird 80s culture stuffs, including some from Japanese anime (it was such rage at that time) ingrained deeply.
Theories about battletech heavy metal how to#
We know how to repair them and how they basicaly work and what is needed in theory to build them but we realy do not know how to construct, develop and improve certain key components that went out of production some time ago and the know how went lost.Įdited by The Basilisk, 15 December 2017 - 04:23 AM.īattletech was never meant to be serious.
The keycomponents of those that are absolutely needed to make them work do not exist anymore. High res high frequency CTR Televisions If you do not want to downtalk how things actually work step back from the "I want singing prepubescent girls in miniskirts" attitude and think about some highly developed technologys mankind has actually lost recently. They know how to make fission reactors highly efficient fuelcells and selfdriving cars and effin railguns and laser cannons but they hardly get a rocket to moon anymore.odd huh ? when you want to see a prominent case of "we don't know anymore how to make cruise missiles but know how to make an effin space robit" think of the US space faring program. Most of the books are written from the position of the royals and rulers who live in the capital planets that still have decen if inconsistant tech.Īnd b.t.w. most nowadays tech is developed further than everything you will find on the averange planet in the BT universe. We are talking about a setting with a situation after 300 years of WW2 in central europe. Only recently some lucky idiot stumbled over an extensive data storage (we are talking about the wikipedia of everything 1000 Years of future tech inclusive) on Planet Helm and distributed it among the great houses.Īnd those are after ~60 years in the progress of unlocking the technologys included in the Helm data core.most planets in the BT Universe barely qualyfie as industrial communitys and rather are agricultural or completely specialized and dependant from outside supply. guarded by some power hungry space kings. There are only few of those who know how left. Mankind largely does not know anymore how to make large stompy robots and fusion powered Spacecrafts and Jumpships. The point of the Battletech setting is LosTech. Reading comprehension realy seems to be a lost art this days Long-running franchises like these get bloated with nonsense over time, and keeping them healthy requires trimming some of the fat.Įdited by Kaeb Odellas, 15 December 2017 - 03:43 AM.ĪGAIN PLEASE STOP REPEATING BS ARGUMENTS AND ACTUALLY READ THE STORYS !!!
Theories about battletech heavy metal full#
I wouldn't mind seeing retcons in BattleTech, or even a full franchise reboot. If anything, I find Gundam's Minovsky particles to be a far better justification for why giant fighting robots are a thing than BattleTech's "We know how to make giant fighting robots but forgot how to make cruise missiles." The technology in BattleTech is no more logical than that of Mobile Suit Gundam.
The BattleTech setting is no less stupid than generic robot anime #5. If you do not like the basics, if you do not like BATTLETECH go play hawken or any other twitchy bullscrap.oh right doesn't exist anymore guess why. It is about a universe where mankind made its perpetual error of bringing its first and most capital sins to every world.īattletech tells the tale of the guys and girls fighting for crazy starlords in handdown losstech machines among a mankind that hardly knows basic tech anymore on most planets because they used for centurys any weapon available to cubber each other back to stoneage.
The birthright and primary idea of Battletech is to get away from animee stupid magic littlegirl singing bllinky magiccolor my little pony stuff. The first sentence already shows that you neither have any kind of idea what Battletech actually is, where it comes from, why it is what it is and how "logical" tech actually works. When you analyze Battletech, it's really an odd combination of conflicting ideas.
