Open! smile You can post - though this area is still under construction - spaces have been reserved for pictures, so the thread is open for posting.


Let's talk about the world of 4010. (If time travel was invented in 4000, then it would take a few years for: the methods to be perfected sufficiently for safe travel, the information to be leaked to the bad guys, and for Time Force to be organized, thus it would be best to set it a few years after the discover date.)

So, what might the year 4010 be like? How would their world be different from ours? What kind of cars, weapons, buildings, technology, etc. would be in their world?

Here are some links to futuristic technological stuff - like any of these ideas? Which ones? Discuss. smile

Identification Technology

face scan, retinal or iris scan, fingerprint scan, voiceprint scan, DNA scan, etc.

Technology For Missions:

Appearance alteration machines: let's discuss this further - I think that there would be a device that would sample your flesh, hair, etc, and would target those areas specifically for temporary pigment/color change.

Time machines: look like UFOs, can be many shapes, sizes, etc.

Weapons while in the past: should either be from the era that the time travelers are in or should be modern weaponry contained within time period-appropriate objects

Example: Heavy walking stick that has a gun (laser or bullet or other) inside of it that fires without leaving bullet shells? Discuss.

Technology = Generally automated, when it comes down to it. Technology would obviously play a large part in everything, I believe. Work, as a whole would be easier for the people and most of it would be done by computers.
Heavily monitored, though I believe that crime would be virtually kept under wraps.
Older parts/more worn-down parts would be less monitored, of course, because the police or government simply wouldn't care enough to protect those people.
I think Survival of the fittest would be very prominent. Let the weak die, let the strong live. Which would be another reason that computers would play large part. You have to be strong to compete, in a way.

Transportation = Since it's so very cliche, I think we should stay away from floating cars, etc. Sure, they can be much more futuristic. They can be more computer operated. But they don't need to fly. Honestly? If you want to fly, but a craft for that. No cars please?
Flying, since it seems to fit in here. Planes would become more sleek, less travelling in general, I would think. No business trips because you can contract someone by the click of a button. Not so much travelling just to see the world because you're safer where you live.

Weapons = I think lasers, too a point, are fine. But I'm an old-fashioned girl. I think there would still be remnants of old weapons, though not so much as armor and other things have been created to deflect the bullets.
I do, however, love sniper rifles. They are quite amazing, in fact. I think he weapons should be modified to be more of a new thing, better aiming system instead of just eyesight and, sure, we can even have a few laser guns. For me, though, I love just having a Glock and Sniper Rifle, maybe even the spare hunting knife.

Buildings = I believe they'd be about the same as now. But, over time, art does change. And, with that, so does architecture. I believe that buildings might have a more sleek look to them. Rounded corners, ability to make more structurally sound, yet 'impossible' looking shapes.
Really, I think this will be the hardest to decide of everything because it does have to do with Art, and we are highly influenced by the art of our time. It's hard for out minds to think of something that hasn't already exsisted. rofl


That's all I got. Feel free to use all of it. Feel free to use none of it.

Yeah, I personally was thinking: "How to make this futuristic without making it seem like it came straight out of some retro Jetsons-cartoon-style version of the future?" That is the dilemma that I'm concerned with - I like your suggestions! smile

Will that will not be totally true. If now same counters are run by organize crime what makes you think that it not true 400 years or even 6,000 years from now. Take Guatemala or Colombia this Nations are almost run by organize crime and lets keep same cars I will like to have a mustang or at lest a doge viper. mrgreen exclaim crying

Walls and windows that are can be filled with a color or picture upon voice command. For an example, see below (something I wrote in advance for a future part of the thread) :

"Ellie returned to her room and lay down on her bed, facing the windows that overlooked the lake. "Window 5: Display Scar," she said, and the voice activation system caused an image of Scar's face to display on the central window. It was an image that Ellie had had commissioned from an artist years ago - she had never wanted to forget the face of the man who was her most dangerous enemy. She had memorized his face. Sometimes, when she was alone in the gym, she asked the window in front of her to display his face, and while she pounded away on a punching bag or ran on a treadmill, the image of her rage was there before her, taunting her and spurring her on."

By the way, today I found someone to play Scar! >.< I am so excited! ^_^ *giggles*

I also found an additional terrorist and someone who I think would like to play a fashion designer on the suppport crew! ^_^ That's three people in one day, which is really good for one day! O_O'' Before, I was averaging one new recruit per day or less ... Quite an up-hill road! O_O''

*huggles all players gratefully*
