Rogue System Hack

Description
In the far future, warfare has greatly advanced (Advanced Warfare) to a point where man and machine are very close to being one and the same. In 2056, a new type of military hardware dubbed "System Hack" was developed, allowing temporary partial nuerological control and sometimes permanent disabling of tech in soldiers that have had prosthetic combat inhancements. However, by the time of 2060, most PMC's and terrorist organizations had delevoped countermeasures to prevent compromised security in their operatives' equipment. Unfortunately, this led to the military heavily modifying their existing system hack technology at a rapid pace over the next few years to combat the newly implemented enemy countermeasures. What developed was an insidious, sinister piece of technology that not even the biggest terrorist organizations on the globe could have dreamt up. An Artificial Intelligence that could perform actions based upon its own desires rather than being driven by the will of its creators, an unshackled AI. An unshackled AI that could affect not only machines, but also organic beings. The top scientists testing this new prototype, codenamed "System Hack Mk. IV", have no idea what is about to happen to the world as a result of their research...

This scenario is very loosely based on the "System Hack" scorestreak from Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. The idea of a streak that attacks the enemy team through sabotage of their technology was something that I thought was an interesting concept for expansion. Hope you enjoy. If you find any spelling mistakes or grammatical errors, please feel free to let me know. Thanks.

-Features-
I wasn't originally going to include a features list, as I feel that the best way to experience something is to go at it as blind as possible, but I feel with this many new custom scenarios and so many different things to try, I feel like I must give a little more incentive to give this scenario a chance. If you are interested in discovering what this plague has to offer through experimentation, then this is your spoiler warning.

Features:
-Custom images for most traits.
-An optional ending.
-Trait combinations, both good and bad.
-Balanced challenge, not an easy scenario, but also not impossible.

-Tips-
Upon testing the plague I have realized that there are a few things that may not be immediately apperant upon playing through the plague for the first time. First, in order to enable trojan planes, you first have to infect aircraft in the first place. Second, since the starting country is the USA, there is already a little bit of built-in wealth resistance. If there is anything else that is you feel was too criptic or complicated, let me know and I'll either change it or I'll help explain it here in the description. Thanks.

Ha, might have gotten a little inspiration from MGS4 as well. It's been so long since I last looked at this I honestly couldn't tell one way or the other. Thanks for the feedback though, glad to see you enjoyed it. Or at least enjoyed the description. :plagueinc:

When I read the description one the first things that came to mind was the "War has changed" speach at the begining of MGS4.

Don't worry, almost ALL of the other mods that use the phrase "rogue AI" spell it wrong. The only true "rouge AI" I know of is the one from the Resident Evil movie XD

The fact that you are potentially the first person to notice that is kind of hilarious. Thanks for pointing that out for me. Hope you enjoyed it! :plagueinc:

Just a small thing, but "rouge" is a color. The word you're looking for is "rogue".

Ok cool.

Well now it's 0.65 at the start, but still it has built in wealth resistance. :conwayshrug:

The scenario has a bit of wealth resistance built in at the start. This prevents the game from starting off slow and being unable to infect any new people. The exact multiplyer for wealth resistance at the beginning is 0.8. Thanks for the comment and your enthusiasm, it's greatly appreciated. :plagueinc:
