Virus Cores

[Keyaki]

I just want to say something about the virus cores.

In R:1 the virus cores looked like a 3-d hexagon
now in R:2 they look like a dimond prism.

what im saying is what caused the virus core to changed their look?

i beleive they did that just to give a little detail and differance .... it may not have been intentional ... although i am not tottally sure this is just my veiwpoint someone like "AzureCrow" may be able to tell you a little more exactly but im pretty sure it was just for complexity

[haseoxth]

Well,virus' tend to take on the Prism shape in life.And maybe its the fact that they went from one game to another,with some minor differences.
Crows gonna say the same thign.

[Marioshinobi]

The whole game's gone through a revision.

=.=; You don't think items would change also? Hell even the bracelet in the game isn't a bracelet anymore.

Just so everyone knows,this isn't me.
I know this person,whom I know IRL,is suspiciously making me look good,but I assure you it's not me.

And yes,I would.

i believe that its because ur data drain isnt the same. the bracelet creatd the cubic ones, and the avatar drains create dianond one. its all how u reap em i guess.

>> there is one problem with your reply>>
Virus Cores were not in the game specs and they are still not in the game specs. Only items and other things that are in the game specs change when the change the game.

As for the bracelet thing, most of the epitaph's data was destroyed and damaged when they were salvaged. Once they made the Epitaph-PC and fused them with the Epitaphs, it must've changed the data drain ability

ARTISTIC LISCENSE!!!

The Virus Cores from the Udeden manga and the Virus Cores from Another Birth looked different too, and they look different in Roots and in the GU Games. It's. F*cking. Artistic. Liscense.

[LegendaryDarkKnight]

So it looks better.

you upgrade a game and graphics, you gotta update what items look like ^^ plus the world R:1 was destroyed so it's obvious things would change in look in the world R:2 =)

Ugh...... okay, you guys obviously didnt understand what i meant when i made the thread. First of all, the items that changed when they got carried over to R:2 because they were in the game specs! Viruse Cores were never in the game specs and they arent now ( and if you dont believe me, watch some episodes of .Hack//ROOTS, Naobi and Ender mentioned them not being in the game specs in R:1 and R:2)

Second of all, i didnt ask why did they make the Virus Cores look different, what i asked was what caused them to change ( as in what caused them to change in the network)
Jeez>> ( i knew i shoudn't have made this thread)

im guessing... the artists wanted to make them look like they do now as they thought they could make them look better then they did

[atoli-chan]

There could be many reasons
1. It's a different from the old ones, so it could be a change by the new "World"
2. The designers of the game might want to change it
3. They want the players to still like the game so they change the art detail to keep them entertained
4. They artist could have forgot to make it like the old one.

i understand what you are saying, and even though they werent in the game specs, alot of things other than virus cores changed that werent part of the game (example: the cathedral)

Exactly, since Viurs Cores arent in the game specs and the Hulle Granz cant be edited, how did they change when CC Corp made R:2

[The*true*Terror Of Death]

wow.......rerendered..lol.

[shio]

If you had to have a logical explantion, I suppose the best would be that since R:2 uses a new rendering system, everything in the game's data was re-rendered (In the game specs or not, EVERYTHING will be re-rendered.) Thus, upgrading the Virus Cores to their new look.

those are the words i was looking for =)
