      jourdan roedel because it's tailored to a niche group of people. To a broad audience this would be very boring and uninteresting. From a business perspective why would you purchase a brand or idea that has a very small reach? You wouldn't. That's why this series is still attached to a CZcams channel.

      Austin's SCIENCE! isn't very tv friendly. He swears constantly, makes adult jokes on routine, and pretty much all of the series' work (video game theorizing) is an extremely niche topic that anyone who isn't a gamer (and even a large percentage of people who are gamers and simply don't care) wouldn't find this trivia channel worth watching.

      If you are meaning to say that Covid-19 is an FEV its not it might be a really shitty try at it but it failed what it needs to be if it were ment to be an FEV. An FEV forces mutation while covid directly kills cells and if the host isnt strong enough than it dies. In short covid is a failed experiment made by comunist china

    • @shamanfryd
      @shamanfryd Před 7 lety +7

      They worked. There is even a video of them showing it off. It weighed 50 lbs but hell it's been 60-70 years and we have been reducing the size of regular nukes for that entire time. No reason they wouldn't also be working on the mini nuke as a byproduct of doing small scale tests to save resources. Just because it isn't in production for mass use in part because we technically aren't allowed to make any more right now because of UN agreements doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Also the original comment was directed at mindless zombies are easier to deal with than semi intelligent hulks that can use modern weapons.

    • @shamanfryd
      @shamanfryd Před 7 lety +3

      Well yeah obviously. Still not the point. Also how do super mutants use mini nukes in the game? Suicide bombers. If they find a stock pile of the ones designed to be fired from howitzers, the W48, then the same scenario could still play out. For super mutant suicide bombers the least achievable part is the super mutant and not the bomb that already exists.

    • @JonathanRossRogers
      @JonathanRossRogers Před 7 lety +4

      Bethesda took inspiration from the M-28 or M-29 Davy Crockett Weapon System. However, the M-28 was nowhere near small enough to be carried and fired by a single person. Just the M-388 projectile weighed 76 pounds. The launcher had to be mounted on a tripod or vehicle. Personal miniguns are far closer to practicality than personal nuclear bomb launchers.

      Also, biggest (=most hp) "man" he can crush/instakill with charge is bastion, and he's made out of some goddamn future steelish-alloy... How much force is behind a charge to destroy the integrity of bastion's machinery enough that he ceases to function?

      He doesn't have to crush bastion, just use enough sudden force to cause damage to his circuits. Bastion likely "falls apart" as part of a sort of safety switch in case he ever be captured so that he cannot be reverse engineered. Now this brings us to the destroyed bastions we see on maps like eichanwalde, The answer is simple, they were damaged beyond what they deemed to be "repairable".

    A quick reminder that most of the giant creatures of the Wasteland, like the Rad Scorpions weren't just made from the mutations Radiations causes in DNA.
    They actually come from tanks containing the F.E.V getting damaged after the bombs, and leaking their contents into the atmosphere, literally creating new species almost overnight!
    So, must mutant creatures are actually a combination of F.E.V and Radiation alterations.
    Of course, this means there should be more variations of Super Mutant, as people got exposed to the virus in different conditions and quantities.

    Austin, I gotta say that your videos have become one of the highlights of my CZcams. It helps that my physics-minded friends stop and actually listen to what you have to say (rather than... pedantically ranting), but also that you're enthusiastic about the material and somewhat relatable as another human being. Those moments like the SAD in a couple episodes ago made me forlornly smile.
    As for suggestions as to new ¡SCIENCE! topics, maybe Dishonored might peak your interest. Magical whales aside, the inventions of Anton Sokolov--particularly his Wall of Light--always struck me as more magical than plausible. A science-y invisible wall that vaporizes stuff on contact seems to occur somewhat regularly in videogames (SCP Containment Breach has it, as do other games undoubtedly), but with Dishonored 2 getting ads I just had to wonder how believable it is.

    Thanks for all the great content! Glad you got to touch on the RL side of FEV though you only scratched the surface ^_^ was cool you mentioned CRISPR but you left out mutagens at the beginning which are what's used to cause "mutations" albent unlikely included in the FO lore... And Hybrids or "post humans" but I suppose that tiptoes between the enhanced soldiers (FEV enclave boss) and institute synths which would make it difficult to express within one short topic.. There are many real hidden gems in the lore if we read between the lines like the original Tesla armor description and how Tesla actually built it and had a patent and schematics which mysteriously disappeared around the time a certain military obtained a similar working patent. Kudos if you know where those refrences are ingame.

    Dear Austin,
    Do not pay attention to my username (I'm just an anonymous YT user). Anyways, down to business, a game came out within the past several days as a new installment to an already popular franchise. The reason why I'm writing to you is because this game has a piece of technology that blew my fucking mind. The best way I think I can address you about this is in the form of a question and in "your language." *clears throat*
    HOW THE F*** DOES THE FABRICATOR WORK IN Gears Of War 4?! It literally, or at least seems to, create weapons and defenses out thin f***ing air! UGH! my head hurts.

      Toby Rowe theoretical atomic manipulation and alteration. You see im correct with the use of theoretical because i have no way to test and or prove it so ill just leave it at the shallow idea stage. Id assume if matter could be directly manipulated then the device would have a very dense rod(s) of the material(s) that the machine would essentially form things with. the rod would be small but weigh a ton or so as it actually contains that much compressed mass for ease of storage to use in the manipulation process to expand and shape the matter.
      I do not know of anything that works in the way i described so i dismiss the whole theory as game bullshit. makes for a totally bad ass story tool if you use it correctly.

    Problem with CRISPR is that while it is a usefull tool it is really limited to single celled organisms. That's why the Chinese are using embryos, the tool needs to be introduced early into a complex organism's development to work. At this current point (possible change but unlikely with CRISPR alone) we can't rapidly modify an already developed multicellular organism.
