technologically advanced

[Painfall]

in what year do you think our civilization will be technologically advanced like in Too Human??

i personally think around year 3000.

[KefkaForKing]

Hmmm... TH is, what, 3000 years after a machine race/antimatter bomb war?.... so... 2019. Give or take. :D

I don't think anyone could say really. Certainly some of the technologies are on their way to being developed.

[Caveeman]

Never.

Two words, Global Warming :x

[GameFM]

Yes we will reach that state.
It is hard to tell which year. I hope we can delay "Ragnarok' as long as possible.

If I put a number, I will give 'human' 150+ more years if we learn. It is because 'human' are now feeling the effect of Global Warming. And with movies and games like Too Human which educate the public, showing them the possible dark future. Alot of smart 'human' will understand and work together to delay it. I still have some confident on 'human'. (I hope most of us are still human)

100+ years, after we evade the possible destruction due to Global Warming, by then our technology would be so advance that 'human' will feel like they are above nature, above god, above everything. We will loose our guard and things will move so fast this time, 'human' will not be fast enough to save Earth or Sun. In 150+ years, we will only see trees in cyberspace and hologram projection. 'human' might try to restore earth as it once was (like in Too Human)....However due to greed for power/control/status and different in believe, we will have 'ragnaork' which most 'human'/ organic species will not survive. 'Ragnarok'/war among 'human'/'god' will end most of the living being on planet earth.
'Human' species might survive comets attack, we might even survive the encounter with black hole or damage from polar switch....however I doubt we will survive from our own war. Too bad it is in nature's design that 'human' greed for power, greed for control, greed to be above everything.... Ignorant bring Lust, Lust bring Hatred, Hatred bring Violent....

Maybe some human cells might survive in some project lab....maybe they have the wisdom to store them in some cold place (forever winter). Then when some sensors detect that earth is healed or sun is re-gen...it will kick start a process of 'mixing/making' life back. Those 'human' might have not the ability to maintain the technology which 'make' them or the power source to keep it. They might not even have the iq to know what it is..., they might just destroy it, looking for food, which was once provided by that machine ....we are back in state of a cave man, maybe on this current planet, maybe not...

In the next 30 years we will have human beings with cybernetic prosthesis connected to nerve and muscle tissue. We will have cyborg units in our heads. These may not be commonly available but right now the development of these technologies are receiving strong financial backing and research. Just look at cyberpunk. It was fantasy 60 years ago. Today, they had to revise Shadowrun because real life technology outstripped even their fantastic concepts. The future is nanotechnology and most people don't even realize that fact. The futures band-aid will be a nano-inejection kit that stitches you up from the inside. Machines that think are on the horizon. Unmanned machines is an immediate ethical and moral dilemma many think of Terminator over, but don't stop to realize it is real.

I have faith in the human race to avoid a catastrophe in terms of self caused problems. Right now, we are making progress towards recognizing that it is a small world after all. Energy issues now are causing us to look into new energy and towards more efficient methods of using it. Most of the world is built on the last one hundred years of carbon based energy use.

My greatest fear is that technology connects us all so well, that one day a tyrant will use it to own humanity. Think of how many machines a factory can produce? Infinite non-objecting troops to control a population. As it stands today, a tyrant still has to make his troops happy or he'll be disposed off.

Thats the illuminatis plan to try and controll us all.

[bansin]

They don't need cyborg units in our heads to control us all...they have the national media to do that.

[Vespasian]

It's not exactly clear how advanced they are supposed to be in Too Human. As with most sci fi settings, the technology is extremely inconsistent. And, like in other sci fi, they seem to hate just nuking their adversaries for some unknown reason, despite the fact that the perpetual winter was supposed to have been brought about by nuclear war in the first place.

Why don't they just nuke Helheim with Loki in it, or nuke World Serpent, or nuke the Ice Forest, or nuke Hall of Heroes? Rather than running in there and bashing everyone's head in with a pointy stick, would be a lot more efficient.

In the nuclear regard, Too Human's technological level is apparently less advanced than our own technology was even in about the 1970s.

[GameFM]

Please do pardon my wild thoughts. Here is what I think,

1) I think they hope to own World Serpent's technology.

2) Nuke may not be powerful enough to kill Loki. He is very much nano-enhanced. His flesh mayb fried by the radiation but his nano-self might survive, unless maybe the nuke explode right infront of him.

To ensure his death, they have to isolate that area from any connection (so that his 'spirit' will not escape via any of those wells), several witnesses have be present to ensure that his entire 'body'+nano are disincarnated to quark level.

Maybe he can still survive....since this is just a story. So we must get UN or super smart lawyer to make everyone+alien sign a contract of not reviving Loki as long as there are intelligence being in the universe/multiverse.... Maybe, just maybe we can get rid of him.

Take Care.

If global warming gets too far we may have to begin Fimbulwinter just to stop it.

But personally it depends on the technology we're talking about. Because quite frankly cybernetically enhanced humans might not be that far away, but enhanced to the rate of the Aesir with no rejection would be a lot farther away.

I'd say 2300 for Aesir level at tops.

havent you heard? now that we;ve got 2 colder then average years in a row scientists have decided that cold weather is the result of global warming, and it should be called global cooling instead....

[sfubear]

I don't see us going along the lines of too human in technological advancement at all. You can add star wars, star trek, Battletech, Andromeda, and a number of other sci-fi settings to the list of worlds we will never see. What makes a good story (no matter how much research is done on potential technologies) and what happens in real life are often two separate things.

Actually global warming is the common term used and popularized by the media and scientist when the phenomena was first recognized. Now a days a lot of scientist refer to is as global climate change

[Salus]

The thing is that the common Aesir technology is about making humans superior to what they are today. Which is what humanity has always tried to do, make ourselves superior. Whether by achieving wealth, or honor, fighting prowess etc. And I'm fairly sure that if some people had the chance (I would even include myself in this category) they would upgrade themselves with cybernetic enhancements.

Meh. "Global warming" is a pet hate of mine. 150 years of meterological records in 4.6 billion years of the earth history, over 3 billion of which had life? Garms nuts I say.

If you take every ice age to be a "Fimbulwinter", ie. a result of humans bombing themselves back to the stone age, and that the periodicity of ice ages is becoming shorter, then logically speaking we should never reach the level of tech presented in TH, and we're probably becoming stupider since we tend to nuke ourselves sooner :p

[Bxsnyper]

imo i doubt the human race will survive past 2500. But thats just my $0.02.

My bet is nuclear war occurs and the fallout finishes off the rest of the population.... or an asteriod takes us out in 1 clean shot.

I happen to know the quick & easy solution to our problem of "Global Warming":

Nuclear Winter! :)

[EightBall]

two words (take your pick), nuclear war, alien invasion, large comet, mother nature(s revenge)

[MADDGOAT]

:rolleyes: That was a lot more than two words...

who gives a **** evryones gnna die .. i only hope it advances enough in the next decade so i can buy a cybernetic arm that doesnt cramp due to drawing or a cybernetic knee.. damn injuries maby a cyber spine or some ****...hmmmm
