Possible Story Ideas

[cloudwolf]

As far as having humans operative get rid of the code in the machine mainframe that is basically the three laws of Robotics, the main problem I see with that is that it will turn them into blood thirsty killers. That coding is what preserved Zion and the pod born humans, the machine are still being a servant to mankind because of that code. If you get rid of it, what's to stop them from flushing all the humans into the sewers and killing off every last redpill? Story wise, they need that coding.

The code that had them preserve humanity was their own, from being designed as caretakers, not the oligarch control code.

And the two matrices thing was just a quick scribbling, I wouldn't look too much into it (though I always liked the idea, I don't think it would work in the setting of the emu).

As for just letting The Oligarchs run off with the BIP don't you think Ghost/Zion/EPN would want to do something to try and get Trinity back? That was the whole motivation of that side for the latter half of this storyline, saving and helping Trinity.

Why not just axe the whole killcode thing and let them leave all hippy-skippy?

Becuase it would leave a gaping plot hole in the form of the program The Oracle gave to EPN/Cyph? The big hint that she was making a killcode that got all the machine operatives up in a twist? The westview conspiracy sideplot to do with her faking her own death to have things play out the way she wanted them to?
