Lately I've been tackling rogue drone pockets and missions involving them, and from time to time, I am seeing strings of random binary code in local that they broadcast to me. Now that got me thinking just tonight, has anybody already deciphered the rogue drone binary code? If you have, does it reveal anything interesting of the sort, or just warnings for you to leave the area?
The rogue drones are rather fascinating, and their connection to the Sleepers that was hinted at in another thread is highly interesting and makes me curious as to their nature.
I am also wondering what questions everybody else has regarding rogue drones, and I have many more myself, but I prefer not to clog up a thread with just my own questions.
Thank you in advance for any answers that you have.  |

Isn't that the truth?

So that's what they are saying! I was interested, as I was wondering if CCP had stuck in bits of lore here and there with the drones.
And Drop-Me-Own-Stocks Darius, that sounds like a great future idea for the rogue drones themselves. As well as if Rogue Drone level five missions receive more content, maybe they will start showing up with Rogue Drone converted capital vessels to look at, and even possibly fight.
Also, I've always wondered how in a piece of fiction from the Empyrean Age how Rogue drones were turned into servants by the former head of Ishukone, yet the pirate factions deal with them like the Empires.
Any other ideas regarding rogue drones that people would like to make? |

Hmmm... after rereading the Great Harvest, I have to say that that is some interesting stuff. The cold, emotionless, dead voice? Unknown as of yet. I am wondering though, where did this programming come from with the Rogue Drones collecting isogen-5 and other things of the sort? I don't believe that they would have found out for themselves, so that is unexplained.
But possibly the Jovians have some connection with this? After all, they have tinkered with just about everything imaginable. What stop's them from doing something along these lines? |

In terms of the weapon, yes. In terms of the rogue drones and their activity... I am skeptical towards that. I am inclined to believe that the Jovians do have a connection to this, somehow. |

Any other theories that people may have? What about the Sleeper/Rogue Drone connection that was apparently hinted at by CCP Abraxes awhile back? |

The only problem with the theory regarding VILAMO is that he seems to be more centered around protecting Mila and the Insorum facility... it is likely that he got hijacked by another entity and spoke to the Blood Raider captain, but I think that it is someone else, someone of Jovian origin. And the Jovians as Rogue Drones... then we must be killing quite a bit of them some times in missions and what not. |

The Kuvaki family might be important, but I am trying to also figure out what is the endgame of the Jovians, the ones who control the Rogue Drones, what the Sleepers are doing and what they are (possibly planning to do), as well as how all might tie into one another very cleanly and easily. Hell, even Sansha might have a hand in all of this. |
