Prophet (Crysis 3) vs. Terminator

[Spartan303]

Meh, the few bits of fluff totally contradict the game, basically.

It was the whole thing with Lazy Dane that sealed it for me. That dude survived an orbital laser strike that vaporized a Destroyer. Granted he was on the tailing edge of it. But it flash vaporized the water and bore straight into the bedrock like it was nothing then set the water in and around the impact site that didn't flash vaporize to an insane boil. His suit liquified from that and bonded to his skin giving him third degree burns over near 100% of his body, which did kill him. The suit regenerated him only for him to die again from being boiled alive in the Hudson river that was still radiating the excess heat from the Laser. The Suit regenerated him again only this time it shut off his pain receptors. An hour later both host and suit were fully regenerated as if nothing had happened.

And that was just a standard N1 Nanosuit.

WTF is this from the Watts novel?

That sounds precisely like something he would write.

The Crysis 3 Novel. I cant find the exact quote but yeah it goes into graphic detail what happened to Lazy Dane and the Destroyer crew.

Don't want to copy and paste to much of the quote but here's some

'He looked up. The clouds. They looked funny. Then they caught fire. He jumped. Everything became light and heat. Dane jumped through steam and hit the molten riverbed of the East River. Then the water came back'

One problem with this is that the nanosuit was vulnerable to modern-day firearms.

Even if we use the game as face value, activating armor-mode lets you tank autocannons and RPG shells. ;v

For a very short while.

Tbf they make up for it with broken FPS style infinite healing which means they can just pick away at the Terminator.

That's...rather accurate actually.

IIRC either intentionally or due to writers not knowing how numbers work, the cloaking system for at least the Nanosuit 2 requires some retarded amount of energy, like an aircraft carrier's worth or something.
