    Default Sera... I'm curious

    So it's been said that the Locust were living underground on Sera for ages right?

    Were the humans of Sera living there too? Did they evolve from single celled bacteria and evolve into modern humans?
    If so, why haven't they had contact with the locust eons ago?

    OR....


    Did the humans of Sera travel there from another Earth-like planet? If so, why didn't they just haul a*s off
    of the planet once the locust emerged? Do they not have Interplanetary Travel Spaceships?


    Videogame logic is retarded.

    Why do people always say "Earth-like" in these type of threads, they are either from Earth or Sera just maybe EPIC's version of Earth. You ever realize that there is no real mention of animal species that inhabited Sera in the end of the Pendulum War through the duration of the Locust War?

    Sera = Earth in an alternate Universe.

    There are childrens stories about the locust. But they are things of myth, like elves and giants are for us.

    Turns out, they were real.

    The Locust are the mutated children of lambent infected humans a century ago. The reason there's no contact with the Locust eons ago is because there were no Locust eons ago. Where imulsion came from is the real question.

    Imulsion is just a fuel/bacteria.

    But has it been on Sera since the beginning of time? Or did it come from space? Or... the future...?

    I suspect it just evolved. Like everything does. It's deep in Sera's (nearly put Earth) crust.

    There is no earth in the gears universe. Sera fills tht role. No space travel, no nothing.

    The Locust are reptiles. They evolved from reptiles to humanoids. The Humans of Sera are just humans from Sera.

    LOL man..HAHA.

    There are MANY theories that support that Dinosaurs had hot blood, being reptile does not make an species have cold blood automatically, is just that to days reptiles do. Maybe Dinosaurs have been the only ones with hot blood, but this will make a fictional reptile be available to have hot blood with theory-cal sense, and still you can say what you want on Scfy. And then, we don't know what the Locust are, they look reptile, but since we know nothing, is just assumption.

    Those theories are pretty strong, so there you go .

    PD: Where the hell did you saw there insect features?

    Think he thought seran Locust species are the relatives to earths....

    locust, noun 
    locusts, plural

    A large and mainly tropical grasshopper with strong powers of flight.
    It is usually solitary, but from time to time there is a population explosion,
    and it migrates in vast swarms that cause extensive damage to crops.

    The reptile assemblege is being considered for removal. The term "reptiile" is ambiguous and there are many issues regarding the relationship to animals in there. Species outside the assemblage are more closely related to some than the "reptiles" are to each other. With that said, Dinosaurs are more closely related to birds than modern reptiles. Birds are more closely related to crocs than lizards. It's a tremendous gray area.

    Finally current scientific thought is Dinos were neither old or warm blooded but somewhere in between. The term "warm blooded" and contains multiple characteristics, most important of which is being homeothermic, however dinos are somewhere between pokilotherms and homeotherms.


    Sorry, couldn't help myself, just discussed this w my students a few days ago. And they don't have "hot blood", that's not what the term means.

    Thats because birds come from dinosaurs, perhaps :P...and in Spanish would be call "Animales de sangre caliente o fria" which in Spanish can be use as the science term, you can either call cold blood or "ectotérmicos" so i just made a direct translation. And Dinosaurs evolve originally from the "arcosaurios" which are considered reptiles, with in this enter Crocodriles and birds, even tho birds are no longer enter in the term "reptile" but they do on "Arcosaurio", which confirms(and i agree) that is a very gray area.

    I would like to continuo the discussion but i m afraid I cannot due to my lack of English words knowledge on this area.

    I still remember when i wanted to be an archeologist as a kid because of Jurassic Park which introduced me to the world of the Dinosaurs, I also saw "Walking with Dinosaurs" which just make my interest much higher back then...good old days indeed.

    But if they take out the term "Reptile", what will future Mortal Kombat games use for the character? "Possible Aviary/Lizard Man"??????

    Right. This entire statement here highlights how ambiguous the reptile assemblage is. The connection to pokilotherms and falling between warm and cod blooded only came about recently.

    Correct. Hence consideration of removing the term reptile from the books.
