Resistance vs Security

Post » Tue Mar 15, 2011 3:12 am

''The Spider'' would sound better than ''Spidey'' or ''The Spidey'' in my opinion :P But I like The Eel! Best archetype out of all the Security ones, even beating the Good Cop o_o


if they dont name it Spidey, im not starting with the security ??

You kinda.. Warped what I said into something else than what I meant :l

The Eel is a diving suit - The Eel is a water animal, a Spider is not, it dies in the water

Check the video I posted in the EDIT, there you can see the shirt and further see that it is a diving suit

Right. But there ARE 50,000 people and they ARE running out of resources regardless? What doesnt work exactly and why?

Is it really that difficult to understand?
What doesn't work: The food supply.
Why it doesn't work: Because enough food can only be produced for 5.000 people.
<_<

My apologies; The Eel is an archetype of the Security that has not been publicly revealed in any publicity stills apart from the wallpapers, so not much is known about it (and I'm not even sure if "The Eel" is its official name, either). The Eel has http://brinkthegame.com/content/images/wallpapers/brink-wallpaper5-2560x1600.jpg. You've probably seen this guy around before; Schwarzeis uses The Eel's mask as his avatar.

It says "Archetype:The Eel | Faction: Security" on my BRINK-Poster.

from what i can make out of that, you are only considering the security's view.
both the security and the resistance think of themselves as the good guys.

So, you just follow orders without knowing what's up? In a not so distant history this was also the case with disastrous results.

Exactly. There isnt enough food for everyone to have an awsome diet. People dont like to starve to death, and they want a fairer distribution of the now very limited resources. Noone deserves food more than anyone else and the sustainability of the ark is quickly failing...so they want a plan B. They want a sustainable option. This would involve finding other resources, which is a great risk versus an absolute risk. However, a subgoal to be accomplished would be to find out how much food there is, if the raw data was available then there would be no argument. Again, no one would expect those in power to have a ridiculous abundence of food which they're withholding to be funny, but one could expect them to be eating much better then the guests. This isnt an absolute, but they feel the truth needs to be examined because people around them are dying.

and on the note of the population control thing, its marvelous but it obviously didnt happen so one must ask if the founders wouldve even done it themselves. The guests being in a dangerous situation would be hard pressed to demand contraceptive laws...but it didnt happen anyway.

I'm not saying the security is definitely in the wrong, I'm definately saying there were lots of miscommunications, [censored] justifiably going down, and we're all going to find out the truth. However, in order for that to happen, admittedly, the resistance had to ask, and ask again, and then provoke an answer.

If there a;most out of resources then they should fish, mine underwater, and get water filters running more places from the mining undersea. Eventually they will have enough material from underwater to sustain themselves and send out a Resistance and Security co founded search

Where the Hades would they get the resources to make water filters or the equipment to mine underwater? :confused:

You could make your own fishing equipment, that can probably work pretty well depending on how it's made, and who said all of the 50,000 people would need fishing equipment? lol

The people who settled on the Ark were there first, all resources are rightfully theirs. Tbh in a global crisis everybody's gotta have known resources would dwindle at it would come down to survival of the fittest (or best-prepared), so those who scrambled aboard after the floods were lucky to get any food/water in the first place from the residents IMO.

And why don't these people fish? :confused: Surely the founders must have packed for that just in case, since fish (or at least seafood) is really the only totally renewable source of food out at sea.

This isnt an absolute, but they feel the truth needs to be examined because people around them are dying.

There is enough foor for just about 5.000 people. If you split it to equal rations for 50.000 people, everyone starves to death sooner than later.
Fishing the waters around the ARK empty is a not very thought through option, because it will as well only be a temporary solution. Plus it will probably be already part of the 5.000-people supply.


The subgoal you're talking about is -basicly- already known. Though there is no actual number (and depending on seasons, there will probably be different ressources available), it is clearly not enough. Hence why there is an upcoming Civil War.
Also the original 5.000 people (which, I guess, are mostly members and or supporters of the Security-Faction) will have slightly more ressources, but they still have only enough to survive for a longer time than the Resistance-People.

If 50.000 people stay on the ARK, it boils down to a breakdown of the system.


and on the note of the population control thing, its marvelous but it obviously didnt happen so one must ask if the founders wouldve even done it themselves.

Probably because over 20 years there will not much generation-change be going on.

saying it like that sounds like war IS the sollution since it will decrease the population a lot.

The resistance has every right to resist. The story is, the founders have more food than they need. Isn't it?

The thing is that these Resistance leaders might just have said so, to give them a reason to fight

Who knows? The Founders might aswell be in the same piss as the Resistance and Security, except the Resistance sees them as the reason to all wrong

well, a civil war might solve the problems, or throw everything to hell.
with a civil war population will drop and there will be more food!
or it could lead to the destruction of vital parts of the ark.
