Its comedy be honest when is there ever logic in thatkozmo said:What the hell was that!? the entire episode was weird. One of the weirdest things was the fact that they showed as in the episode that Toad is an extremely well trained soldier but yet from some reason, everyone think he is horrible. If it wasn't for the Michaels invincibility they would have died so many times and yet he is considered by everyone to be horribly untrained.
Seriously, did you see how fast he responded when he heard shanks? Did you see how fast he pooled out his gun and got direct hits to Shanks face even through his other hand was holding Lund and that his pistol was probably in his pocket or something? I have many other points about Toad, but the biggest point is-Toad isn't a wimp. He seems to be a war veteran but yet, from some reason he is considered a wimp.
That doesn't make sense.
and about the invincibility- I vote for god mode
edit: how did shanks look at his forehead, that's impossible, why did the new guys that were killed start screaming in horror after they were shot rather than screaming of pain? And of course there is to ask why did they scream the same before, during and after they were shot without the shot actually making a difference in the tone of the scream?
Why did toad carry so many weapons if in the last episode he was just leaving Mario that doesn't respect him, rather than just carry a pistol?
In short- logic has left the building
This gets my vote. I never played the game, though, so I have to ask: does Mercer's health really regenerate that quickly?IAmWright777 said:ALEX MERCER POWERS!!!!! I wondered when they would appear.
That makes a lot of God damned sense. I'm probably going to side with you on this, but there's another theory that caught my attention. Somebody said it has to do with them eating Alex Mercer, and that makes sense too. He can get shot a million times, and not be slowed down, so they probably gained his power.benylor said:I'd be inclined to believe this guy. Remember, video game laws. They were just recently in RPG land too, and this is common RPG territory.Kalezian said:or, Toad cant do any damage because he is a weakling, like Mario said.Nimbus said:Uh... Hmmm...
I'm guessing you can't be killed by a non-agressive NPC?
The Michaels (sorry) are probably at like level 40 by final fantasy standards by now - they were able to directly challenge the Dice Lord and get the exposition out of him, but unable to hit him. 30 sounds roughly right to me, at least. In any case, their level is relatively high.
Toad, of course, is a little *****. Level 1, if that. If a 10-small guns skill Lone Wanderer shoots a Super Mutant Overlord with a The Terrible Shotgun, it's still going to do shit damage on account of the skill being so low, despite the animation being exactly the same as if the skill was higher.
Ergo, Toad is simply too low level to do any real damage.
Depending on how far in the game you are, yes, his health regenerates very quickly. But even without fast health regeneration Mercer can absorb a ridiculous number of bullets without taking much damage.sooperman said:This gets my vote.

I was going to quote the same thing. I'm excited for that episode. 8Dcrotalidian said:"Vita Chamber?"
"not yet"
Lol it all makes perfect sense nowIAmWright777 said:ALEX MERCER POWERS!!!!! I wondered when they would appear. another great episode too
If Mercer possessed delayed regenerative capabilities before Shanks and Lund ate him, then it could work. They would be restored to full health and fitness in a few weeks, giving them time to take the hits this episode, and be fully restored in two weeks. Simple (to me) and effective.Carne said:Alex Mercer probably has something to do with this.
He's right. They can't have used god mode.trollboy said:It can't be god mode because in the second episode they were stopped by the server for enabling god mode and hence cheating.
Hahaha! He's such a little *****!maddawg IAJI said:Poor Toad. All he wanted was respect from his peers......To bad he's just to much of a wimp.
And a cliffhanger? Really? Come on. Tell us your secret? I won't tell anyone.
No he didn't Mercer's ability to regenerate was based on consuming people. But his body was a walking virus that could take a lot of hits. Probably because it wasn't really a human body as it was a viral colony created from everyone he had consumed. After a while you do unlock regeneration though.CounterAttack said:If Mercer possessed delayed regenerative capabilities before Shanks and Lund ate him, then it could work.

Always nice to see a revival of the 8-Bit Tie with Tom and Ryan.
I think IAmWright777, is right.IAmWright777 said:ALEX MERCER POWERS!!!!! I wondered when they would appear. another great episode too
