Capsuleers are uumans with tech similsr to ours but less advanced.

Their pods act like the chips stuck in our heads. So if your in the pod your thoughts and junk get transferred over to new clones. But if you get all deadified while not in it well your dead end of story.

The pods can let you out but its hella messy think the matrix scene when neo wakes up in the goo pod.

You are 100% wrong.

If you would read the EVE novels including latest one that introduced DUST merc tech. We have sleeper technology that is very advanced. Before capsuleers were the only ones that could have conciousness transferred because the apparatus was large and had to be in perfect placement to do a scan. This enabled only capsuleers in pods to ahve this. Once New Eden unlocked the tech to have it implanted IN the brain did that allow DUST mercs this same capability.

yeah that's it : ) You'd wake up not knowing what happen the last week while you were in the pleasure hub

oh also the tech we have only works in the fifth lobe of the cerebral cortex.

whats that you say there are only four lobes in the cerebral cortex??

you sir know your anatomy. Just not your dust clones anatomy, dust clones cant really be called human by any stretch of the imagination they have a whole load of weird things like additional spins and organs. They are apparently down right hideous.

which is why I think its funny that the female models are designed around a grade school idea of the perfect female form. That said the only dust clones whos appearance was mentioned in eve lore that I know of were early proto types so maybe Mordu learn to make them sexy extra spines and all.

tho those combat heals are still a bit much.

Hi guys! I'm one of the dudes who's worked on the EVE Lore before, though not the great degree that many others within CCP have, so allow me to clear up a few misconceptions and whatnot.

1) Capsuleers can get out of their pods and without cloning. They use what's called a pod gantry which extracts them. They plug in to their capsules via neural rigs along their spine.
2) Capsuleers and DUST mercs use fairly different technology. Capsules were developed by the Jove and cloning was added in later by the other races. The cloning tech that capsuleers use is bulky and restrictive, hence their need to be in the pod to use it. DUST soldiers have small implants in their brains which can transmit consciousness easier. DUST implants are derived from the Sleepers, a race which was once part of the Jove but broke off thousands of years ago.

Though great explanations ill try to give a frame of tv refrence to this.

1) I like to think of matrix's machine civilizations pods used in the human battery. Though mabey without the goo.

2) for those of u who have seen the tv show Dollhouse think of the wireless mind implanting without most of the freedom of being implanted in anyones head. According to new eden the tech can only transfer u to an identical brain due to well lets go with size issues.

We're humans evolved by 50k years and genetic tweaking.

Maybe I am wrong on this, but I thought the body you use in the Mercenary quarters was your own body, or a high quality clone of your real body, but the clones you use in combat were mass produced, purpose built, generic clone bodies. I would assume it would be the battle clones that have the reinforced spine and redundant organs. I also assume that there are female clones because female mercenaries found it disconcerting using male clones. I am referring more to body type here. I am not sure if battle clones of either gender actually come equipped with sex organs.
