Pet skins

[Pandagnome]

Hear much on the many skins that will come for pilots, mechs and so on also pet skins would be good to have from those cute one's to the mechanical and so on?

Here are some thoughts with regards to em8er pet skins or types.




These creatures go inside their pouches to hide and they have a ball end tail that is good for hitting things giving the opponent some concussion.


Phantom pets are unique in the other alternate worlds they were said to be trapped like the tsi-hu in the loop. Since they are much smaller the reapers have found a way to contain however they have to return back into specialised containers or else they will be lost in an endless loop.

Phantom pets are known for making funny sounds and luring things and some light up dark places.




Spider pets they hang around a lot and put up webs to slow opponents


Robo dogs they are know as good trackers to find and locate things.


Tactical pets they are more tanky and good for longer journeys



What pet types and skins could you see in em8er?

Given how A.I. is thing in the game. Could I not have a digital pet that lives inside my IU and HUD? Like there is the normal A.I. I'll have to help me out with things and I can also have a second A.I. who will act like a pet for both of us?

Like when I'm in a safe place and just chatting with people or crafting my little digital pet could show up off the side of screen and do things like play with UI elements or just doing cute things with the other A.i.

The immediate thought I had after reading your idea on a digital pet.

Idk...a pet AI as the players OP-AI could be interesting...a pet AI AND an OP-AI...hmmmmm

Think about it. And pet A.I. because it is somewhat simpler than your normal partner A.I. it also means it could fit into and run simpler things. Like say a downloading itself into a little drone or robot to help you combat or when you go into full immersion cyber space both A.I.s could be living inside a house that is your personal computer / sever while the internet can be the rest of the world outside of the home.

Or maybe that is just me because I kind of want to make an female partner A.i. who is of the little sister or motherly personality types. In other games where you can pick how do you want your A.I. friend to act I always go with the nice and friendly types.

hink about it. And pet A.I. because it is somewhat simpler than your normal partner A.I. it also means it could fit into and run simpler things. Like say a downloading itself into a little drone or robot to help you combat or when you go into full immersion cyber space both A.I.s could be living inside a house that is your personal computer / sever while the internet can be the rest of the world outside of the home.

I really like this idea!

These are also good read because it makes me think that in Em8er so much more can be done.

What if we had A.I vets who can give indication of potential virus/dmg signs before it could become a serious issue such as the A.I malfunctioning or the pet reducing speed to a crawl etc etc

They may have specialists areas similar to research and investigation procedures

[Forensic systems] - Scans for clues such as trace elements, foot prints, sound detection, etc this helps in solving crimes, missing individuals, finding hidden locations and even recordings etc etc

[Research Hive] - Bringing data research and sharing to all particularly useful to medics/A.I vets. They will have a pool of information used to create a data base to understand e.g if viral sample 3896-adf is more potent to create slow release Aoe poison or that Element Dctbtx-N6 can be used for better crafted bio-tech infused Armor etc etc

[Quarantine] - To keep it in locked & vaulted away from the pet/pilot/A.I and tsihu, the issue is sometimes these Quarantine zones could be a target for sabotage meaning the threats could be released out in the wild or used by the tsi-hu for their gains. In that case the facility needs to be protected because it not only helps our medics who will have clearance and potential be a target too and our A.I vets but also helps everyone else!

[Reverse engineering] - Certain viruses/items could be used to develop e.g. Adaptable Nanobot Tracking sensors (ANTS) that give direct feedback to the user of where several hostils or certain Vip's are heading without them knowing.

[Medi-Vet] could also be a training path for medic class to aid pets and link up with the A.I vet database so that the medic could receive a better overall health diagnostic, and as a result the most appropriate approach to tackle the problem instead of guessing.

So this could lead to the medical center where resources are not just for crafting guns, building constructions, they can also be used to manufacture medical supply types such as Vaccination, Stims, bio-tech gear/weaponry,suits, etc

I don't mind the idea itself. Definitely a post launch item I feel.

I hope there is a button to hide all pets. Seeing a cute kitten running at Mach 1 behind a skimming omniframe would be really funny, but it doesn't do great on the immersion. Even in social areas, all pets standing at the exact same distance from the pilot is a bit weird.

Skins though? Hell yeah skins. Little holographic kaiju to spook your enemies. Panda eating some noodles out of a box, but you can change it to a skeleton panda eating brains out of a skull. Good times.

That's a good idea, having the pet hidden or perhaps as you about to jet off and glide it jumps on your back and despawns as if it has taken a ride or integrated into the mek suit.

Then when your back on land spawns and hops off and if you have a no pet skin what would be a standard pet is that a little robot instead of flying psychedelic chroma octopus pet skin?

A pet that can turn for 2 different skin types depending on the events, environment, such as on the pet there could be a module slot you can have such as

- Adaptive module type 1 (Day/night cycle) e.g. when pet is at night puts on ninja outfit harder to detect

- Adaptive module type 2 (Elemental) e.g. when pet is near fire has little fire hat give small amount of fire resistance.



I like to also see a little pet monkey playing with a little drum set and symbol and lures enemies

If you want to customize it further the drum beat can change so you can have various style e.g

When the enemies get closer Monkey pet starts wacking them on the head and running around, the drum sticks are used as Escrima sticks of the Philippine martial arts.

One the idea of having pets follow after you while you are out in the field. My hope is that only pets that could realistically fight back or support pilot would be out in the open like that. Otherwise they would just wait for you back at base or if they are small enough they would just be inside the cockpit with you. Like something like Luca from the anime IGPX. Amy being the physically weakest of the team, synchronizes with her cybernetically enhanced calico cat, Luca, to form a composite personality during IGPX Races. In other word her pet cat was in the cockpit with her helping her out in fights, and because of the cybernetics it could talk to people. So what for those kind of pets you would see them inside the cockpit with people and show up on coms too.

Also on the topic of skin I think it could also be used to touch on the topic of different types of armor as stuff. Given how we do and are make things based on what we see in planets and animals.

P.s. there are animals in real like that metal body parts. So you could change the DNA of something to just have iron all over its body.

Overlooked the idea of having pets inside the cockpit that would be good too, and seeing them react in coms.

So if the cockpit is clear we can see the pet inside unless it is in hard driver mode.

Do you think the structures of our base can be manipulated with tsi-hi structure technology wonder what their structures would be like compared to the reapers?

Ah just like one of my fave characters Colosus
