Necratoid Wrote:Questions though... it seems to ignore that GENOME was purposefully was in fact doing in city urban combat live fire testing drills or that boomers were actually being given the equivalent of crazy drugs, dependant on time line. Is it a major plot point change? An impassioned plea letter written by one that did not do research? Or at least ignored said research? Did Mason die early in this time line?As this is basically an AU at this point merging plot details from both (the working title is "BGC: 2052" on the backend, notably), it's more exactly what the story says. Of course, the fact that some boomers go rogue for no apparent reason doesn't rule out the other two options. After all, rogue boomers make wonderful smokescreens for a variety of things.
Niggling details are niggling.
But to clarify, there will be A. rogue boomers that are just trying to escape (see Blade Runner), B. rogue boomers that've gone nuts due to being stuck in semi-sentience for too long (see 2040) C. "rogue" boomers that aren't anything of the sort and working for certain power brokers (see original OVA BU-12B), and D. rogue boomers that are fully cognizant but lashing out at the humans and the system that imprisoned them in the first place (i.e. boomer terrorists. Sharp-eyed fans might recognize the clunky old can that's running that show, though..)
