@@artistanthony1007 I don't care about using machines to make us cooler. I like the sound, so if I ever lose a limb I will have thta going for me, and any others who are missing limbs. What I meant by "what the heck..." is this -> "I'm already feeling legit cyberpsychosis coming from the temptation of transhumanism but I still have control to resist it long enough" that just sounds weird.

Not really. In the game there is additional detailing and metal on the hands

[@treelonmusk5723]

I wanna see the hacksmith or colin furze make a functional one!

[@mrkiky]

I was thinking the same thing. Damn this would be a terrifying weapon. Could just go over the forearm. The extra bulk could be hidden under some baggy sleeves.

[@mrkiky]

@jeanluc305 If I were to make it I would make the blades titanium with a hardened steel tip/edge and spring powered. An air cylinder would add too much bulk and complexity.

[@mrkiky]

@jeanluc305 Yea but, you'd still only be able to deploy it once. With a spring mechanism you'd be able to re-cock on the go. And you can just use a strong enough spring to make sure it will do damage. Part of the reason I wanted it to be titanium is so that it's light and will accelerate more when deployed even if energy stored in the spring is limited.

[@mrkiky]

@jeanluc305 Are you sure those tools aren't simply connected to a compressor/pump? If you add that, you'd need a power source for it, and it would become very bulky and heavy. Also 2 cylinders for both directions adds extra too. From other examples, like Furze's pneumatic grappling hook or some guy (don't remember the name) on some mythbuster spin-off show made a self cocking pneumatic or hydraulic crossbow and it ended up huge and heavy. This seems like an application where you really wanna keep it light and fast.

[@thesavagegummybear7341]

Raul J so I’m miserable for wanting something? If that’s your train of thought then I think you need to seek the love your parents never gave you, I’m sure that making it move is totally possible and I know for a fact that there are other people that would just love to see it move, so if that makes me and all those other people that I know would find that cool, miserable? Then boy are you ever stupid.

[@ThatGuy-eq9mz]

@@thesavagegummybear7341 oh it seems like I hit a spot huh. Did I describe you in detail honey? Now talking about the "love my parents never gave" is some childish shit dawg. Look, the technology to make this a fully functional movable arm is possible but obsolete. Now we can either stop this bullshit argument here or we could go on forever. Let's enjoy the hard work these people put into this masterpiece, and hopefully one day you'll learn that complaining on something you can't do yourself is the most selfish thing a human being can do. Now fuck off. Thank you.
