Stealth IO Whitepaper
Very interesting. Creative way to explain those +Stealth IOs. It even looks semi-professional.
Good job, I say. Now I wonder how long it'll take Crey to steal the plans and make their own version for purchase on the black market...
Statesman said let there be heroes, and there were heroes.
Lord Recluse said let there be villains, and there were villains.
NCsoft said let there be nothing, and there was nothing.
Thank you!
Actually, the 'Special Projects Team' mentioned in the white paper are 3 of Dr. Star's 5 children and have had problems with Crey trying to steal or duplicate their father's inventions in the past.
From another piece I wrote to help clarify my thoughts on their powers, 'Project Blackstar':
I've received information on fairly good authority that scientists at Crey Labs have recently attempted to build working copies of Holly's gauntlets in order to aid in reproducing 'Star's secret project'. The gauntlets are completely nonfunctional, of course. Even if they had the exact design, neither the gloves nor boots work without the most important component of 'Project Blackstar'.
(When did such a venerable company become so dishonorable? Ever since that mess with Dr. Baen in the 80's, it seems as if the company has sunk further and further into unethical behavior. I once considered a job offer from Crey and am very, very glad that I rejected it.)
