Proposal: NieR Automata lasers&EMP should count as light speed.

[TheAngryOrange]

Do they have the same maximum ranges?

Yes.

Well, here it is.

The struggle is that the laser is so long it always flies off the screen. Also, all laser wielders are stuck in different areas of the map that are sometimes too narrow. So I put them all in the largest open area they all had access to and see if they could hit the far wall. Any further and things begin to cease rendering.

Is this enough?

 

[TheAngryOrange]

I don't know. Give it a go.

So will that be enough?

Is that a yes?

 

[ByAsura]

It goes a long way towards getting a yes.

What else would need to be done?

Would this help? This is a related character describing its thought processing time in nanoseconds. That would put its thinking speed in the FTL to Relativistic+ range (and that's just thinking and not reaction). So it would make sense that there is a weapon that scales to that range.

I think that should be enough. Make a new thread about it, though.

2) Origin: They always originate from some sort of mechanical/technological source. For the Pod program, in cutscene you can see the laser being fired out of a lens.

Lenses are used on cameras & optical lasers for manipulating light, including refracting it. So additional proof?

• The beam refracts in a new material, such as a liquid or...

Done. Can I get you to sign off on it?
