Anyone not ban Scara (WC side)?

Post by Delta2501 »

Did anyone not ban Scara (letting Trestkon take control himself) the first time time they got the WorldCorp ending? I'd be surprised if anyone didn't take the chance to take over themselves.

Although I guessed I could do this having already played PDX it was good to include that conversation where Trestkon expresses the idea, so that first-time players learnt about the banning console.

I mostly let him live :) since Ive seen the ending already when you do ban scara & take over yourself :) yeah trestkon being ultimate ruler is cool & all , I like scara tho :) he's a funny Bastard :) shame though that zero presence cant take working with trestkon & dissapears :( yeah zero might be a cocky bastard himself , but it would be cool for zero to work for him :)

The weird thing is I'm pretty sure he is shown among the resistence members in Dr. Dumb Lunatic's room, yet his denouement says he went to another community.

As for Scara I really had no reason to think he would keep his promise to give Trest PDX, especially as it was suggested so late on (in fact I was a little surprised that Forum City isn't really that different whether or not you ban Scara). Besides isn't it way much cooler to seize control yourself than to remain a pawn?

I did both but if I was in Trestkon's position I'd totally ban Scara's ass.

Mostly for shits and giggles.

Pfff, of course. Silly Scara. He can forget his payraise, I take all! :D

Also, I don't recall ZP ever being in any resistance shots.

You may be confusing Endar for ZeroPresence, since they have similar coats.

I seem to remember there being someone in a green coat like ZP's on the left side at the start of the shot, whereas Endar was on the right becoming visible when the camara pans back IIRC. The coat and build looked similar to ZP but it didn't look quite the same.

No, Endar is on the left. Unless you killed him.

While on the topic of banning characters, I see the option to ban Ryan. Is there ever a path in the game where that becomes necessary or is it just something you can do out of spite for him?

That's just something you can do if you regret not killing him earlier :P

I just found it's more fun to make him look foolish by stealing his shuttle out from under his nose. :P Not a single effort...at least after you knock out Endar for the key. At least to imagine what might happen when the shuttle crosses his window on the way out.

You mean steal the key, press the red button, and not talk to Ryan? :P

I'm not even sure it is possible to get to the red button without speaking to Ryan. Unless you use some AI "exploit" like throwing a grenade first.
