So what exactly happened to these guys. The game is giving a total Walking Dead kind of feal to it as far as wandering the wilderness andbeing set upon by hordes of " zombie soldiers"
What does EMC stand for again? and what happened to these soldiers that turned them into Mutants?
I love the vibe this game is giving off..sorta a Mad Max, meets Water world, mixed with Stargate and some walking dead end of the world/Firefly thrown in lol
EMC = Earth Military Coalition.
These guys were a product of the United Nations when they found out about the alien visitors roughly 9 years before they let it out to the public. The EMC were a protect-earth kinda organisation from the "evil" aliens.
Apperently, at the battle of Defiance(some big battles before the game), there were some kind of terra-forming "explosion" that altered the earth, and it let out some kind of mutagenic substance that changed the EMC to the braindead zombies we know today.
ahhhhh so they arent really EVIL just doing what they where trained to do before the war of Defiance....except EVERYONE are there enemies now lol.
Some of these guys are creepy ( the cleaver ones !!!)
thats why they call you a "TRAITOR!"
If you read the info posted the EMC people you fight are people who were outside on patrol when the terraform wave generated by the Arkfall day impacts crossed over them. They are mutated former people. Not the undead and not aliens.Originally Posted by Taxbo
When the world goes to shtako, someone has to clean it up.
They are called mutants for a reason, not a zombie. Like what Thunderclap said it is the outcome from the terra forming causing mutation to these people.
Yeah, their final standing orders and mutations have brought out the worst in them. There's still intelligence and cunning there - Piercer is a pretty good example in the Delta Bunker, as he's quite capable of leading and developing scientific projects (as flawed as they are) - but it's been buried underneath aggression and spite to anyone they perceive as different.
I'm not sure how vehemently racist they would be if not for the mutation, though. I understand there was a lot of anti-alien sentiment present on earth in previous years (especially around Tranquility), but whether this extended to some sort of attempted genocide on a global scale I can't say.
Just an FYI, as the EMC was a global organization, the ones that were not stationed in the San Fran bay area were re-assigned to the E-REP when the government disbanded the EMC.
The big blue guys were mutated on purpose to be super soldiers by the EMC.
Actually the biomen were genetically created as soldiers, and some in the Bay Area became mutated.
