145: Apparently throwing around scientific-sounding gibberish relating to pseudo-genetics makes the game seem more science-fictiony. Oh, by the way, YOU CANNOT FUCKING ENGINEER A PLASMID TO BE GROWN IN BACTERIAL CULTURES THAT ALLOWS YOU TO FUCKING SHOOT LIGHTNING, FIRE, AND ICE FROM YOUR FINGERS!

146: Apparently it's "futuristic" to have guns with internal magazines that are dumped and loaded through a breech-like-hatch despite it being impractical as hell.

[up]I'll agree with Fire and Ice, but if an Electric Eel can shock things I see no reason you couldn't engineer a human somewhere down the line who could too.

[up]That's not the same as shooting lightning from your fingers. Electric eels merely give out electric charges from organs in their bodies to stun and kill prey.

148: You can move at 50 mph and shoot bullets and shells and stuff without reloading as well as carrying many weapons in a Hyperspace Arsenal cause, you know, you're a marine.
