ITT: We try to come up with a way to retrieve an important hard drive from a fortified oil tanker that doesn't involve slicing it up and the 1000 people on board with invisible nanofibers
ITT: We try to come up with a way to retrieve an important hard drive from a fortified oil tanker that doesn't involve slicing it up and the 1000...
Its impossible, the only way to do it is with the invisible nanofibers. Nothing else will work.
Why is the hard drive so important? What's on it?

The only known working alpha of Half-Life 3
you shit Black person, why did you post this joke before me. now i look stupid
It’s basically every communication Evan’s had with the aliens and every bit of information they gave him

Nice PS2 ship. Kojima did it better.
shower the ship with radiations so the crew dies but the ship is unharmed
This but then you slice it up (using some very small fibers)
Very hard to do quick enough to incapacitate people - even the neutron bomb was going to take a few hours to incapacitate tank crews (before they were lined with boron). To do this one the scale of a ship would make it all radioactive as frick. It would fry any electronics and they would not even be able to find the drive amongst the debris because it would be too radioactive for too long. Even if they used disposable labour it would be unfeasible.
I mean they have sci fi nanotech indestructible wires that cut through anything, a neutron death beam isn't too far fetched
a neutron death beam would fry the harddrives
you'd fry the drive
just use poison gas
Easy
>Tanker is at dock
>Old mine shaft under bay
>Rupture it, water drains away
>Walk to oil tanker
put on my knee high socks and cat ears and seduce the captain with my bussy.
Sneak on when they get food and supplies?
Take a couple nano fibers with you just in case tho
This shit looks crap, is it worth watching?
If anything watch the non pozzed chink version from last year.
Better yet watch neither
it was surprisingly ok for Netflix dreck but you just know they are going to frick up season 2 (which looks doubtful will even happen)
>use unmanned drones to locate the hard drive
>doesn't matter if they get discovered because it's not like they're going to nuke their documents over a random spy drone
>wait for the ship to be near the coast
>send in plainclothes operatives to covertly secure the hard drive at night
>exfiltrate and drop a tomahawk on the ship
't matter if they get discovered because it's not like they're going to nuke their documents over a random spy drone
Wrong.
why do you guys have to spoil everything
>go to Cinemaphile discussion board
>do not discuss Cinemaphile
you missed a turn reddo
At your majesty's service.
So was the hard drive immune to the nanofibers or did they just count on plot contrivance saving them?
Of course the harddrive was immune to nanofibers. You think they're idiots?
It was also immune to fire, water and being crushed by tons debris. All according to keikaku
So why don't they build ships out of this magic hard drive material?
They were spaced 50cm/20" apart, the odds were low and if it was cut it was a perfectly precise cut meaning it wouldn't have actually damaged data. This is their explanation in the book.
That makes a lot more sense then.
loved the show
loved the kids getting fruit ninja'd
>I'm not hearing anything about nanofibers
>Yeah I know, the stupid alien space warning hard drive and all that...but what do you got on nanofibers?
Speak to your autism, coach about why this is not getting the traction you expected.
ewbm?
This is the least contrived plot a chink can come up with
Shoot a bunch of tiny armor piercing missiles which start spinning and releasing extremely potent nerve agent from horizontal jets right as it starts approaching the target. Hit the target from exactly above, using either drones or standoff methods, and penetrate into the exact center of as many interior compartments as possible, so as to avoid directly hitting the hard drives. Majority of the crew dead within minutes (perhaps a siren similar to the stuka should be installed and sound a couple seconds from impact to disorient and unnerve the crew)and the survivors will either be forced to the deck or overcome as the interior continues to fill with the gas, where the snipers will pick them off.
how did they know they wouldn't cut the hard drive thereby rendering it useless?
how did they know they'd find it in all the rubble and seabed?
Just hack into the mainframe and download it.
Stupid frickin boomers.
how'd they know they wouldn't destroy the hard drive with the lasers?
Hire a cheerleading squad to do an alluring dance number in sexy sailor outfits on the deck. Naturally all the 1000 aroused men will rush over to witness the spectacle, hollering and whistling, allowing me to easily sneak past them undetected and retrieve the hard drive.
There's no real urgent need for the data so there's enough time to simply... Get a guy on the inside? They don't have a complicated recruitment process or standards of excellence? Simply have a man get on board as a crewman, map the ship and locate the server stack, and let a specops team plan their assault based on this information.
Wait are you taking about mission impossible dead reckoning or not?
i regret watching this show, it wasted my time.
the moment they came up with the moronic idea to send a frozen human brain to the aliens i was done with it.
>lets send a human brain to the aliens so they can come up with 10,000 more ways to exterminate humans
whoever wrote the books, and the show, should be fricking shot in the face with a shotgun.
You didn't read the books, shartskin.
why would i read the books if the show is already braindead moronic?
do the books have the "send frozen brain to the aliens" storyline?
Of course they do. You think USAnian subhumans could come up with something like that? Kneel.
wait, so who wrote these shitty books? it wasnt mutts?
lmao i thought i was american stupidity that wrote this schlock.
Chinese.
wow, i had no idea they are capable of writing something so stupid.
honest to god i thought americans wrote all this stupid shit.
That's because Americans live in your head rent-free.
>send frozen brain
In the books, humanity is panicking after we find out the aliens have sent a fleet so all kinds of stupid projects exist (that future generations later call naive and shortsighted). Wade in the book doesn’t really care if the brain is captured or not, the more important thing is whether it’s possible to achieve 1% the speed of light through that method of propulsion.
> the more important thing is whether it’s possible to achieve 1% the speed of light through that method of propulsion.
Which is also mentioned in the show. But with its breakneck moron pace I can't even blame speedwatchers for not catching one sentence.
The idea of compressing book 1 to less than one season was cursed from the start and is probably the biggest sin here. Worse than all the Americanized woke original writing.
>Wade is right about everything
>put to death by government
It's hilarious how the third book is about writing a book to subvert the government that they themselves will not understand the message of.
>why would i read the books if the show is already braindead moronic?
HOLY BRAIN DEAD COMENT!
Bribe someone on the inside or blackmail them somehow.
I don't know what this is from.
They made Luo Ji black
it's simple
we'll just bring in some Indian sailors to jeet the thing
I feel like the show massively fricked up this part and people have obviously noticed the plot hole. In the book, they actually spend time brainstorming the assault. They come up with all kinds of concepts like covert operations, infrasonic weapons, concussion bombs and even neutron bombs. The issue is that Evan or the ship crew will obviously wipe the hard drive as soon as they realise they’re under attack so the only option is to use the nanotech blades. Again, the show makes another change when they slow down the speed of the blade clearly to benefit the audience. Evan’s doesn’t run with the hard drive, he’s about to wipe out when the blade reaches him and kills him.
They made a very cool gory scene so the show could have a signature at the cost of them ruining the entire scene.
> so the show could have a signature at the cost of them ruining the entire scene.
Same as with the only other ebin moment; sophons don't manipulate the whole world's electronic devices - until they lose the restraint or something.
It's a theme park adaptation that doesn't hold up to any scrutiny.
But then you would need to kill them all after, what point would that have?
moronic body horror slop. Nothing turns me off garbage faster than that. I stopped watching The Boys 60 seconds in for this reason.
No WebMs yet?
maybe i missed it, but how did they know that there was one specific harddrive with the stuff they were looking for? how did they know what it looked like?
