What do you believe is the cause of the problems in Ikeya?

You've seen some screen shots, snippets of the plot, as well as pieces of the soundtrack.

From what you've seen and heard, what are your assumptions?

I think its either vasudan or humans who found the Ancients war machine or something and decided to carve out an empire of their own.Or maybe a secret GTI weapon?

if its just the vasudans thats are being truoble makers then i'd say they found some ancient.......thing....a relic that was created by the ancients perhaps and its contaminated with some biological agent that affect them and turns them xenophobic warriors

part of an experiment by the ancients to creat effecient warriors to help them concur other worlds

...So the only idea you folks have is that it's some ancients bio-weapon?

Well maybe the new desktops available for download on the site might help... maybe...

John Romero is resurrected by a cult of the 4 people who actually liked Daikatana (The android-representation of Stevie Case & 3 lifeless geeks who bought Daikatana) & claims Ikeya, under the misconception that it is still the furniture warehouse...

hmmmmmm that looks familiar - those nasty shivans are back and whats worse they have bio armour from the shadows - hmmmmm so they found a sathanus obvioulsy whoever found ti want to keep it for themselfs and take over the whole gtva.......my good man we've got to stop them......nuke them till they glow and shoot them in dark

1 sathanus is a threat but not an insurmountable one - but i'm guessing since there were a load of fighter s a moloch there too its not that simple - the shivans want there ship back?

All you've seen are ships studying a Sathanas as well as some Vasudans shooting at Terrans.

The question you should be asking is why is there a dead Sathanas?

Maybe the shivens are doing some recon before they invade this time, afterall, terrans are probably one of the only races to succesfully beet them, even if it was monly once. maybe they want to figure out how we are able to adapt so fast. all they would have to do is jump in with on or two SJ Sathanas with a large number of tractor beams fitted and then capture the entire battle group and then jump out again.

It's just the Vasudans venting their anger because the GTVA would rather spend it's time connecting with Sol than revitalizing Vasuda Prime

Or it's a massive case of Space herpes...

I heard about that, spread from Deneb to Alpha centuari in a matter of days

Oooooh, i like that idea. maybe it could be a mutinious faction of the vesudan military. if they break away and take the plansfor the Psamtek ships and the sobeks, after enough time passes, they could get quite a fllet together, add in an unknown jump-node.......

The psamtek was a Hatshepsut class ship...so what you mean is Hatshepsut ships...My two cents :-p

Not to spoil too much, but the Vasudans are the least of your worries.

Ohh yess... there will be Vasudans...
