Essay on Monkeys, Robots, The Order,Dom Kavash,Post Lvl. 17
If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!
Mersenne was a monk who is remembered for his work on prime numbers; primes of the form 2^n - 1 are called Mersenne Primes. They are often used in crypto because their special form (all 1s in binary rep) can make implementations more convenient.

Very nice, people!
That would explain the robot names! So there was a clever reasons for naming those robots like that. Thanks a lot. Can anyone confirm that all the names posted in my other post are accually monkey names? I know the following are species are monkeys: Mandrill, Gibbon, Capuchin, Colobus. Does anyone know what a Marmoset, a Saimiri, a Lagothrix and an Alouatta are? Please tell me, so I can sleep easy...

all are monkeys. i'll forego listing them all by genus and habitat for the sake of brevity. (yeah - i'm too lazy)
what about the numbers in the robot names?? any further thoughts? they can't be arbitrary.
oh!! before i forget again... who/what is standing on the launch pad of Crete?
i can see him/it moving his hands but i cant tell what it's doing or why he's there... anybody know?

Far tooooooo much thought into a game. Yes, that's right guys, it's just a game, a computer game, one that you play for a few hours, put down, and go live the rest of your life. lol I mean, it is fun to discuss it to a certain point, but that point was left waaaaaaaay in the dust with this thread. lol
YIKES! : ~
Live Long and Prosper.

John Bown, i like your theory.
Personally, I think robots are the order or work for the order. And yes, when your ship is on the plateform on planet gammu, you can see the magnetic field under a ship on another plateform, but no ship. Cloaked, of course. And the look of the base is like the order base on Toledo. So, its clear for me, there is a connexion between the order and the robots.
This is a story about gardians... Nomads are gardians, the Order is a gardian. Nomads was created by Dom Kavash, robots by humans (i suppose). It seem to be similar.
For the Apes, who know ?
I remembered what you said : when all factions are your enemy, planet gammu become fully unlocked.
You know, in the movie Planet of Apes, there is a monkey philosophy : human kill human but monkey dont kill monkey.
So, is anything possible with monkeys if everyone is your friend ?
These days i have searched a way for be friend with every faction in the game.
It is not an easy way and i am not sure if it is possible.
For now, I have a half friends, and almost a half neutrals, only three enemies, Mollys, Xenos and Bundunch. Not bad, but not enough and i dont find a real way.
It is just an idea, but, at start, everybody said there is nothing with gammu and you have found that it was not true.
So, maybe there is something to do with primus, and maybe the way is to be peaceful.
I dont know, I try to explore the possibilities.
If someone know a way for be friend with everyone without cheat, ALERT me !! LOL

Well, another idea...
Maybe monkeys are childs of the hispania too, like outcast and corsaires. Their city look like outcast city on Malta. It seem to be the same culture.
The malfunction of the hispania was not near Malta, but before. The crew have been separate in two (a hint by a barman on Malta). The first have abandon the Hispania with their shuttles, i think they are becomed the corsaires. The rest of the crew has continued to Malta and only then, the hispania has been totally abandonned.
So maybe a part of humans in shuttles are gone into the unknow system by Omicron Gamma, then have muted, or physically regressed and they are became monkeys.
With Alien micro organisms in the air, who can say what can happend ?

Thanks Dragonbreath.
That is what i do.
I have a saber with a shield level 10, so i do not engage in combat and i can easily resist without open fire until i go another place if someone attack me (not often).
I use some trade routes for win money. For example, to mine nodium in tau 37 and sell it in Dresde give me a good benefit. Friendship with criminals factions (corsaires, outcast, pirates, etc...) help me to use normal trade routes without be attacked.
I dont use smuggling for stay in good terms with police.
I use bribes sometimes, but the problem is everytime i use it, i lose points of reputation with some factions. But maybe, in a long time, it will be constructive ?
Is Trade brings reputation points ?
