How in the fuck are humans in Terminator future still in the fight? Vs a hyper intelligent endless wave of machines with nukes
>>223617312
>>223617597what
>>223617312Terminator Genisys answered that. They battle by trying to alter the timeline just like Skynet tries to
>>223617312Why would they nuke themselves?
>>223617614You gotta listen!
>>223617312terminators are stuck at walking menacingly speed while humans can run
Endless? Don't know why you'd assume that, presumably the machines would have whatever robot-producing infrastructure was already built when they took over (that also survived the nukes), which would also be reliant on materials that again access to is also a question, I doubt military bots can easily be repurposed away from combat (if at all), so attrition and rigid machine inability to adapt would definitely be an angle I'd imagine humans taking advantage of
>>223617312Earth is big af and nukes kill technology too>>223617647Genishyt
>>223617312I thought humans have been greatly reduced in the war with the machines? I mean they arent exactly thriving.
>>223617312a nuke only blows up like a 3 mile diameter the earth is very big
>>223617803And that's what no one did.
>>223617936Yeah Skynet blew up the earth way before AI took over the manufacturing sector. Military always gets the cool toys first.
>>223617312Earth is huge, ridiculously huge, even with satellites surveillance.And there's a shitton of people.It takes times to kill everyone.
>>223617312Skynet is still limited by resources and infrastructure. All its computing hardware still requires careful machining and processing or access to difficult to obtain materials and even a perfect AI is going to be limited by access and physical precision and reproducibility.Of course, this is assuming all it builds to defend itself with are androids and hunter-killers with human-like intelligence. Given what we've seen the last decade the reality is Skynet would just shit out millions of cheap, disposable drones with little explosive charges and just fly around swarm-bombing survivors.
>>223617312Nukes fuck up machines just as easily as everything else
>>223617647I picture the people in the future trying to change the timeline by sending people into a portal and they look at a watch and 30 seconds goes by and nothing changes so theyre like "next one up" and they do that all day and forever.
>>223617312Skynet very obviously doesn't actually want to kill them all. It has some other goal that may only make sense to it. One example could be that it was created by a time loop, and is thus doing exactly what it has to to maintain the loop and to try to stablize it without doing any further harm to people than it has to.
>>223617312>endlessIf you watch the movie, the Terminator being sent back in time to kill John Connor was Skynet's last desperate act as the humans were overrunning its base.
>>223617312They shouldn't be. You have to just try to ignore it>Skynet nukes Russia>Russia nukes America>Everybody is fucked and scattered>Skynet immediately starts building concentration camps and death machines>Turns them loose on humanity>Everybody diesThere's no time for any sort of a resistance to have formed if Skynet is spying on everyone, has more nuclear weapons, air superiority, ground units, infiltration units, etc. This is why Reese doesn't go into detail about it other than "Their defense grid was smashed" because to try to explain how that could have happened, would be unbelievable to the audience
>>223619995>>223617936The AI can't build more factories? Well in Matrix it's realistic how they just pumped out so many they easily won the machine war, skynet seems incompetent in comparison
