New Idea/Stealing An Idea: The Danger Room

[Jarven Zexxel]

In the X-Men comics, there is an advanced, extensive and immersive virtual reality training room that the students and X-Men use to train for any number of situations.

Here's what I'm thinking:

From masters to noobs, there are plenty of people who can think of one thing or another that they need or want to train for. Although some would be just fine reading a tome in a library or stacking rocks with the Force in a courtyard, many people would likely prefer an engaging, atmospheric simulation that does its best to mimic the real deal.

With the Danger Room, you'd be allowed to set the environment or enemy combat units to be as dangerous or difficult as you please without actually risking death or starting a war.

Want to fight Mandalorians in a city getting ripped apart by an earthquake? Want to be a part of a shadow war against GA spies? Want to fight a rancor in an arena? Want to practice your piloting skills by racing along the Dragon's Spine?

All the training without the risk*.

I would put in a submission and do the necessary devs (if anyone wanted to help, more power to you) to get this installed, up and running in, well, most likely our capital? I mean, it would probably make sense.

I believe that actually subbing something like the Danger Room would add to the training's credibility, it would provide an easy go-to source for training where we can have freedom of creativity for any training thread we can think up and it would put a nice notch in my FO belt.

What do y'all think? I'm anxious to hear how smart I am if you guys think there are any problems with this idea.

So like the troopers' simulations, but more universal across departments? Sounds cool, I'd like to see it implemented. The canon simulation room could use some fleshing out.

Nice! I will do my best to make it legendary. Who knows? Maybe it can become a sub-forum.

[member="Jarven Zexxel"] I like the idea. If you need any help with development, then I would be happy to help. I'd like to add in some infiltration type scenarios for the FOSB/Ren/Spec Ops folks.

It's actually up and approved, now. It's even in our Planetary Holdings list. You and all the others may use it whenever you wish.

[member="Jarven Zexxel"] Ha ha, I'm late to the party. Thank you!

Anyone game for a defense of Avalonia against some Thermopylae Esq odds?

I hope you mean a simulation. We've just fought off the Ssi-Ruuk so it's a bit soon to be doing that again. But I'm sure the scenario is going to be used for training purposes going forward...

Well the thread being what it is about, yes.

Are there any reconstruction efforts going on or has that come and gone?

I just got back from MEPS. Hell yeah, let's do some training. However, I'm personally inexperienced with whatever Thermopylae Esq is.

The Last Stand of the Spartans and whatnot. We could do an invasion deal or some urban sweep stuff though, since we just actually fought off an IC invasion.

could be a uh simulation, instead of a room per se a la Fallout 3
