Kain gets his reaver and powers, and Drake gets all his equipment and stuff.

The battle takes place in a football field, with invisible walls, no BFRs or running away.

I know you're trying to cheer BT up with a match he can actually win.

But please, no spite threads.

ScreamPaste
It's not spite. Kain's feats are all toonforce and the only statement about the reaver is falliable, it comes from Kain himself.

BloodRain
Kains toonforce now?

ScreamPaste
By BT's logic, yes. I advise you to check the Ganondorf v.s. Azeroth thread, for examples of BT's logic.

Hes a bloke with some Guns, silly thread, I cant concede when I had not even started an argument yet. I cannot concede to the lollinkclub either because their not debators, their trolls.

If you do not debate in his favour you concede and the thread is over, Drake wins.

Did you see the part where I said game as well? What's not to like about Uncharted? It's not bad, but it's pretty generic for it's genre in my opinion so I don't doubt why people would like it. LoK is a rare specimen that did extremely well. Can you comprehend what you're reading?

So, Nathan Drake wins via bullet to the face. BT made an assertion, but could not prove it. Case closed.

BloodRain
^ Agreed.

Burning thought
Nathan drake does not have the 0.3 seconds of extra mental perception time he needs to realise Kain there before hes cleaved.

BloodRain
And Kain isnt a bullet timer.

Burning thought
Define bullet timer?

kain can dodge a guys aim, because he can move and react at times quicker than a guy can correct his aim. Humans cannot even percieve Kain before he can slice them, their censory is not fast enough.

ScreamPaste
Someone who can dodge bullets.

I'd like to see some form of proof of this. It's not like Drake starts out unable to see Kain and then Kain just appears randomly behind him. This is a fair fight, no element of surprise.

Edit: I might just let BloodRain handle this thread. He seems to have more patience with you than I do.

Kain will have to activate his teleport, by then he's be full of lead given that Drake isnt a complete moron.

ScreamPaste
I'll try not to get this one locked stick out tongue Sorry again.

Burning thought
Based on the mental Chronometry of human brain:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_chronometry

Kain is too fast for nathan to even begin a stimulai in his brain for a moving object. 330ms. It takes 5-800 seconds to actually fully comprehend the object according to the "answerbag" link in the now locked thread.

So....assuming Kain gave Nathan some time to reach stimulas, he wouldnt comprehend Kain, only see a blur before him if anything unltil his brain cought up with Kains movement.

ScreamPaste
Tell that to a skeet shooter. Also since when can Kain move that quickly?

Burning thought
ignoring the actual teleport itself, Kain still has to think, percieve and strike THEN think and percieve the next target within the 0.2 seconds he has before he teleports to the next target.

His reaction time would need to be incredible, Nathan would never be able to hit Kain even if he did attempt a shot at the blur coming towards him as Kain unless he is under PIS in this thread would not stay in the direction Nathan is slowly aiming his weapon, certainly not before the stimulate finally reaches concious thought and Nathan pulls the trigger.

BloodRain
Takes him half a second to activate it. Bullet can get to him faster then that.

ScreamPaste
I'd also like to point out, that normal people in target shooting must also have incredible creation time. >_>

Burning thought
Originally posted by BloodRain

Assuming the bullet does anything at all, yes it can. Thing is the stimulas in Nathans brain would take half a second to comprehend Kain at all, let alone concious thought, decision and actually pulling the trigger.

Ofc that figuire is based on a stationary image, my last link points out that the brain takes longer to focus on a moving object.

So it would be 500 to comprehend, an extra 330 on a moving object.

The human eye has its limits though, Kain may even be invisible to Nathan. Then he gets done to him what happens to Moebius in the end wink

Not that Kain cant just gesture, pull the gun from Nathans hand and then shoot him with his own weapon.

BloodRain
And how long it takes Kain to decide to use it = Drake deciding to shoot.

MooCowofJustice
Aren't those feats all, y'know...

TOONFORCE?! dun dun dunnnnnnnn

Burning thought
No, because as weve seen Kain can actually move, slash and percieve his next target perfectly in the 0.2 seconds, Kain can achieve in 0.2 seconds what the human brain could never even begin to comprehend or percieve, Kain could do this more than twice before Nathans brain even gets the stimulas.

MooCowofJustice
Or, you know, he had already planned out what he was going to do upon deciding to use the multiple teleports.

BloodRain
1. 0.333.
2. Teleport = moveing to target. All thats left is slashing.
2 1/2. Hence 0.333
3. If Drakes familiar with a gun he'll make the shot.

Burning thought
Wouldnt change much of anything, A lot of my results on human reaction time is based on the Jensens box which is a experiment where the guinea pigs know exactly what they need to do, e.g. press buttons when they light up.

Kain would still have to have an extremely fast mind to be able to react at those speeds, he shouldnt even be able to percieve these knights and where to strike, let alone do the movement.

1. Base reaction stimulas without accounting for movement or perception. This is not concious thought. Stimulas remember?

2. Ignore the teleportation itself, I am talking about what Kain does between the end of the last teleport and before he teleports to his next target. He has to percieve, move, strike and decide on where to strike then decide his next opponent, then decide to teleport. It would add up to 0.7+ just for the stimulas for a human unless we assume 0.7 is the base, which would be reaction on instinct, this is not Kains instinct.

3. He knows how to use a gun, this is not going to change matters unless he had training against targets moving as quick as this. In which case he "may" get lucky and pull off a shot, in which case it wont hit, because Kains reaction allows him to pretty much see it all in slow motion, Drake would seem rediciulously slow to Kains extreme mental speeds.

BloodRain
0.333 is Kains fastest moves.

percieve, move, strike and decide on where to strike
^tele - port^, ^strike - ^

Kains mental speed isnt that fast above normal, if that.

MooCowofJustice
So I'm wondering why BT gets to use gameplay to calculate a reaction time for Kain, but Ganon can't.

It was calculated in the thread as an easy 0.2 by many people, wheres this 0.333 coming from?

And you claim Kain being able to not only make concious decision, attack and move while percieving a moving target in 0.333 not above normal when a human would not even have had the stimulas required to percieve Kain stationary? roll eyes (sarcastic)

You just ignored my post, put down your figuire and said something illogical based on it.

Ganons an NPC, balance is important for Ganons actions in gameplay. Also what feat are you suggesting?

Where?

Cant remember which, an old thread.

MooCowofJustice
So a player controlled character's gameplay is more reliable than an NPC's, which technically isn't even gameplay since the player cannot play said NPC.

BloodRain
Yeah, and i checked again. 0.333

Teleport is the whole movement. Not as much thought in it as you think.

Burning thought

Show me your calculations please?

Kain has to do all of those things I stated, think, move, strike. The movement itself is a concious, deicsion making activity as is the use of his sword.

My evidence on the human brain means a human would not even get sensory stimulas for those events.

What do you mean "teleport is the whole movement", teleport is not movement, teleport is what Kain is doing after each attack, and at the beginning.

Originally posted by MooCowofJustice

Depends if its static or not, the move I am talking about is a an ability, the only thing the player decides is when to use it. The actual function of the ability is static and unaltered by gameplay.

Assuming your talking about Ganon blocking Links great spins, this is not static because its the players decision to actually do said spins. The fact the A.I can react is not a canon feat.

ScreamPaste
Actually, the fact they programmed the A.I. To react to it that way does show he was intended to be able to deal with it. Ganon's sword fight A.I. is actually pretty detailed as far as I can tell. They gave him special scripting for each of Link's hidden techniques and weapons.

Burning thought
Or that they wanted you to fight the boss a particulour way, the boss needed to be harder etc, balance, gameplay mechanics etc etc, not canon. Neither is player decision.

So why do you ignore Link's? The only thing the player decides is when to use it, and it then ends at what was it, 0.15?

BloodRain
No calculation. Watched Defiance gameplay. Timed it based on 20 recordings. 0.333

Perceive and move = teleport. That plus a slash is whats happening, not that it matters as his start-up time is long enough to get a shot in.

ScreamPaste
Funny, he can block every hidden technique, except the mortal draw, which is stated to be impossible to defend against. He defends against every weapon, too.

The mortal draw isn't a balance concern?

The only thing you can use in this fight is your sword, that's the challenge. Outfight the A.I. in a sword only duel.

You cannot count in milliseconds however? I just watched it myself about 10 times, Kain takes 5 guys in less than 2 seconds, the first teleport and activation of the reaver taking much longer, perhaps about 0.6, the mini teleports between are instant as far as human perception could ever measure. Prob 0.1-0.15. Kain does things between there that the human brain would not even record in 5 times that, let alone act on what its stimulus has percieved.

Teleportation is Kain just moving his body to where he needs to be, he then has to percieve, move his arms to strike what hes percieving, make a decision (what kind of slash) twice because hes still got to decide on what enemy to target next. Humans could never

Now this is the only thing debatable, start up time assuming Kain uses teleport is around 0.6-0.8 seconds to activate the reavers teleportation. 0.5 and Nathan percieves Kain, +0.3 because Kain is moving, Nathan has to also make a decision, this all increases the time it takes. Then concious movement of himself. I think he would be very very lucky to get off a shot, it may even miss considering hes not aiming or being accurate, his mind would have only just cought up with the stimulas.

MooCowofJustice
Thars another thing, Ganon can block arrows fired from Link.

Burning thought
In a cutscene?

MooCowofJustice
No, in his boss fight. Technically he can block Light Arrows too, since in WW you need to bounce Tetra's shots off the Mirror Shield in order to hit him in the back.

Teleportatio is moving to a desired location, most of the decision is already done. Again, basing on humans without teleporting.

That 0.5 is perceiving before action, same will be for Kain before he uses his.

Why would I combine a human brain with teleportation? my evidence is based on real people, they dont have teleportation do they....

Yes, your right, in 0.6 Kain decides on the first spot where he will teleport to, bends back in his animation for the reaver spell and casts his magic, therefore doing the teleportation. Thats already decision, movement and perception, thats 0.1 second more than it takes for a human to percieve a non moving object kains already>>>human RT, hell he only just gets beaten by human stimulas/brain waves by 0.1.

This is his first move, adding the fact he actually moves to perform the spell, this is not just a brainwave were talking about.

Now thats only the first part. His brain has to percieve, think, reckon on the next target to teleport to and slash, move etc (again, not brainwaves, this is actual concious movement). Every time he teleports between the guys, who are moving btw so he may have to take into account their positions, angle etc. Thats impossible for the human brain to even comprehend let alone to react to. Adding the fact Kain is using some sort of magic to teleport, means Kains multitasking, thinking etc as well.

Kain still has to move and percieve, his enemies as well as make concious thought on to what enemy to attack next. All of these things he can do in less the time it takes for a human to even feel the stimulas of thought, Kain literally can outmove a brainwave or as good as one in the stimulas.

Nathan cannot decide to shoot until his brain has even percieved Kain. Also assuming Kain does not teleport, whats stopping him from just blocking Nathans aim on his sword? Nathan fires, Kain blocks, then uses TK and does what he wants.

Not impossible for Kain, but a human, no human afaik has ever conciously made, even Kung fu artists work based on concious reactions and taking into account their entire environment, sound, movement etc but Kain does all of this off the bat, as soon as he appears from nowhere. Even martial art masters cannot ignore brain waves even if they have trained themselves to react, even sub conciously to various things like punches through training.

Your mistaking concious thought, for brainwave stimulai, Kain can process concious thought and carry out activities, movements etc (and cast teleport) in less than half the time it takes for a humans brain to even begin the stimulai. 500ms is how long it takes for a human brain to comprehend/percieve an object. 330ms for the brain to even register the stimulai of another moving object.

Yes, only a human takes 0.5, Kain takes a tiny fraction of that. If Kain can move his sword in less than half the time it takes for nathans brain to finish processing what hes seeing, yes.

You seem to be misunderstanding "time to think about" and "thought stimulas", concious thought and stimulas are two different things. Martial artists through training learn to work off reflex based on sound/movement and more important than anything, prediction based on heightened senses. Kain is similiar, only hes doing things such as fully concious movements before the human brain can even stimulate.

So:

Nathan- based on the assumption Kain is standing still the whole time to allow for the human brain, eye to process. Times are in MS.

0.01 battle starts
0.1-0.5 Nathans brain attempts to stimulate so Nathan can see Kain.
0.5+the time it takes for his brain to make decisions, I think this was an extra few hundred MS.
0.7 he aims.

Kain:

0.01 battle starts
0.1/2 Kains sword moves into position to match where Nathan is aiming.

by 0.7 Kain has plenty of time to have had his sword in the right place.

No, Kain moving, attacking, and doing all the concious motives required in 0.2 seconds when a human cannot even percieve stimulai in the brain until 0.5, does make him faster however. The fact he teleports is irrelevant.
You mean as much as time as the three experimants in the wikis I presented think.

He just has to adjust to aim, Drake cannot think quicker than Kain moves, he can just about begin the process.

Kains fastest movement is for this is 3-6m/s, bullet 800m/s. Lucky to block one, Drake can shoot more the once. Besides Kain can predict where the bullet will go.

You still fail to realise that Kain can move his sword in any direction he wants in 0.2 milliseconds and it takes 0.5 just for the bloke to percieve Kain and +0.2 aim accordingly, how fast the bullet goes is irrelevant if Nathans aim looks as slow to Kain as a milk float. Kain just moves the sword along with Nathans aim, Kains sword does the blocking, the bullets speed is irrelevant.

You know this is just for lulz because Kain at 0.2 does not have to swing his sword, he could just gesture and have Nathan and his gun flying into the air.

He doesnt have to judge remember? his reflexes mean he can do movements in 0.2 while Nathan is just getting his little brain stimulai, weve been through this already. Kains brain allow shim to make movements at 0.2, so his actual brain stimulai would be under 0.1, his aim would be easy to judge when he can make quick movements with his sword with every brain wave Nathan needs to even re-direct his gun.

Whats range got to do with Kain just smashing Nathan or his guns to hell with TK?

No they cant, but Kains not a human. 0.2 movements, sure when their randomly punching thin air, no human has made a thought process, decision, stimulai, motioned and then chose another target in 0.2, based on 3 piecies of evidence the human brain can only just about stimulate at 0.5, let alone allow motion, decision and accuracy at 0.2. Whoever your talking about, that 0.2 is not a reaction feat.

Kain could block Drakes slow human reflexes just by judging his aim, over and over and over, each time Drakes going to have to correct his error which takes 0.4 milliseconds if he wants to hit Kain, which ofc is impossible becaue Kain still has 0.2 feats of moving his sword.

You imply TK has a range? what makes you say that?

Compared to Kains normal reflexes no expression Theres no correcting errors, just shooting multiple times.

Show me him doing it? 0.333 based on you doing the same as me, where I got 0.28, it doesnt help poor old Nathan whos got 0.7 before he even aims his gun at Kain. Then when he shoots Kains sword because Kain was sitting ready since 0.2, or 0.5 whenever it first became predictable where he was going to aim and has to correct his aim, error correction= another 0.4 seconds until Nathan runs out of bullets, or Kain casually walks towards him only to gut him when he gets close.

How can you claim it has a range from the videos? has Kain ever attempted a TK at long range and was not able to then? I dont remember that happening.

Its a waste of time anyway, Nathan is not a peak human, hes not a martial artist with training of body or mind. And I would like you to find a video, I want to see if i am correct in assuming its just Bruce lee in a film or punching thin air, not actually reacting to anything. No, 0.3 is everything, unless your assuming Kain has precog? he knows the movements of his enemies and the slashes he needs to do before he teleports? lol no Kain has no precog, every time he appears his brain is perceving images and he has to decide and slash in 0.2, you cant ignore those things. He cant decide to slash, or percieve enemies in the future for when he teleports.

a "specific" range being? you seem shaky on this subject. Logically TK has no limit on the range other than the distance a character can see, if he can see his opponent then the distance between them is irrelevant. Their not projectiles of TK, their telekinetic bonds that appear around the target.

Feats show otherwise. No, both are vastly different to reacting to something. Weve got it, youve mathed them at 0.3, I have at 0.28 estimation. I sort of asked you a question and then answered it myself in the same post. Your seeing Kain do something a man couldnt do in twice that time. Yes because moving your body and slashing does not take any brain waves, nor does choosing your target, angle of slash..oh wait no, it does....every movement of a body requires brainwave stimulas, a humans just happens to be around 0.7, not 0.28

Backed up by nothing? Kain lifts moebius, a sarafan soldier in cutscenes and theres no physical bond between either. Only facts that we can see is that Kain seems to gesture for movement and has to see his enemy.

Indeed, no proof of peak humans reacting at 0.17, no proof Nathan has any chance of even aiming at Kain before being cut in half.

Thats weight not distance.

Actually you'd have to prove that Kain has above normal mind in that way before i need so disprove it by showing evidence.

The tests in my evidence shows that simple reaction, which is a reaction without actually doing anything about it is 0.3, brain waves for actually doing something about something is 0.5 (the test was just pressing a button) , it then goes on to say that adding choice, decision and error correction among other things all adds time to this. My other source on brain waves has that diagram that shows us it takes 330 seconds before stimulas in the brain even activates, and Kains already moving, let alone stimulas. Your ignoring this. Each one of those activities adds time, and overall should take vastly more than 0.2-0.3 if an average human takes 0.5 just for stimulas. A driver in my other example in the other thread took 0.7 to put on the brakes, this is a guy whos trained in doing that over and over (if you drive you would know), not just some guy with a Gun facing off the bat someone hes never seen before, moving at speeds he cannot comprehend. Yet your assuming hes going to move with expert efficency and fire accurate shots when Kain can make movement and action before his stimulai even comes into effect.

Distance is space that Kains Tk does not travel.

I have shown evidence that human brains dont stimulate until 0.5, your saying despite actually achieving activity and movement at 0.3 Kains not got stimulas higher than a human? roll eyes (sarcastic)

Remember this is before he moves at 'speeds'. No i just think he's a good shot, thats all thats needed.

Distance is the reach of the 'grab'

But youre forgetting to show evidence that Kain can move faster then this. You fail to see the connection and im not going to point it out to you. ''Kain can make movement and action before his stimulai even comes into effect.'' give you a hint, start here.

"sigh" your faily to comprehend the effects of stimulai, my info shows it to you, you must just be ignoring it because you saw Jackie chan swing a punch in some movie or your overly bias, the info quite clearly shows how stimulai works and its at 0.5 for comprehension of a stationary object, if you want to ignore facts then fine, according to you Kain does not even have to wait for stimulation in the brain before he makes movements. The event is not the same, human stimulation remains the same however, the driver breaking has the advantage of doing something he has trained for, I have no evidence to suggest Nathan is a weapons specialist with his guns and I know hes not trained himself to quick draw and fire accuratly against an opponent like Kain.

Kains brain has to percieve, function and think in 0.2 as well as move. The human brain cannot stimulate until 0.5, let alone do anything about it.

Tk does not cover space, hence distance is irrelevent.

No I see what your trying to do, you seem to be assuming Kain does not have to stimulate when he sees enemies. Kains brain would have to do all this every time he teleports, because hes not seeing/watching the enemy while hes in the space between dimensions after each teleport. His brain is reacting off the charts. I doubt even Dante could do this.

You know it's not very hard to quick draw, right?

Funny, I was thinking the opposite about Bloodrain, he seems to be ignoring human stimulas and the fact Kain stimulates and makes concious actions in less than half the time.

Your entire argument is based around that Kain can perceive in that amount of time. He still needs to use the attack and move to do it. He's got a lot more to do than Drake does.

And this is where I point out, that so is Ganon's stuff.

ScreamPaste
He's stacking times, to make it look like Kain is doing less in more time, as well. Any normal human could move by someone and poke them with a weapon, and Kain's never shown percieving acting or reacting at an above human level.

BloodRain
BT, until you correct yourself on this theres no point in you bringing up feats you cant back no expression Seeing as your whole argument is based of a skim read off wiki no less.

Maester_yoda
this should never have got this far. BT said he wasn't going to get into this argument at the beginning. its pointless. have some decency and just admit when your character can't do something. Obviously Drake wins because he has something called guns. just stop BT, just stop....go home

Theres no correction to be made, i suggest instead of simply copy/pasting your old argument that you read through my wiki, understand that Nathan needs to stimulai and act in over 0.7 and Kain only 0.2/0.3.

No, my argument is that Kain percives, thinks AND moves in that amount of time because he does. humans cannot even percieve at 0.5.

"sigh" you want to troll this thread into a LoZ debate again? roll eyes (sarcastic)

BloodRain
Kain still needs to perceive like Drake before he acts. Nowhere is it said that his is above normal.

MooCowofJustice
The only reason anything LoZ fits in here is because you refuse to acknowledge every character with the same set of rules. Kain can use gameplay, Ganon can't. Kain can be legitimate without directly connecting reasons and statements, Link can't.

He does, just like he has to percieve the Sarafan before he can strike them, he also has to decide on the strike and move. He does this all in 0.2, then his mind percieves the next target. Kain is however at a disadvantage because he is not actually percieving and moving towards his enemy physically, his teleport means he is not actually percieving them at a constant rate, so his brain has to think within the 0.2 that he appears to strike.

Your assuming he is apprently reacting and getting mental stimulai from events that have not even happened. The only time Kain would have time to percieve at 0.5+0.2 is when he first decides to teleport and move in the initial use of the dimension reaver.

''Kain would have time to percieve at 0.5+0.2 is when he first decides to teleport'' he have to pervcieve Drake then start his teleport. Creating a small window of being open.

Yes, percieve drake/sarafan, start the teleport,

This is only the beginning to get himself teleported to the first target, he has to teleport again, and again etc to hit the 4 other Sarafan, only 0.2 seconds of time between each one. Each one requires Kains brain to percieve what he is striking, decide on a strike, who to teleport to next etc. Kain is doing everything in 0.2 seconds that Nathan would prob have to do in 1+ seconds. The only thing that takes Kain time is the initial teleport which takes 0.6-0.8 so assuming Nathan is not in character and is an expert marksman and weapons specialist he is still barely quick enough. Is he any of those things?

What allows Kain to strike at 0.2 would allow him to easily move his sword to block Drakes aim which takes around 0.7-1 second to do.

ScreamPaste

Kain has to realise, just by what you assume it is, 0.2 + 0.6-8 to teleport. Drake gets a shot off, again by what youve said, at 0.7.

Your talking as if their starting miles apart, the arena itself is a football field. If their far apart then theres also a large likelyness Nathan will miss his shots at long range anyway assuming hes using a pistol.

0.6-0.8 to teleport, but as Kain has shown his reaction time is instant, you seem to be measuring from the first teleport, but he teleports 4 times after that, the time between Kains percepton, movement, decisions (several, sword swing), stimulai reach Kains arms and body in 0.2 as well while Nathans brain has only just started. Remember Kain has to do this every time he teleports, because hes losing his senses to the battle scene every time he teleports/disapears into w/e realm he goes to between porting.

If Kain uses the RT he uses in between teleports to strike a guy, he would at 0.2 easily have his sword protecting him while Nathan has 0.5.

Thats if he uses his time to teleport, if he uses the speed of swing shown before each of his mini teleports at 0.2, he can block Nathans bullets until he runs out, or until Kain can close in. Or he could instead of swinging his sword, swing his hand for TK. If their at any long range distance then Kain does what a human would do, only far faster and just runs past his aim in a circular direction until he gets close enough.

Or he could mist for lulz, float up to Nathan reform his special extremity inside his nostril.

lol at BurningPaste, it has to be that one.

BloodRain
He'll have to act and see the bullets to try and block.

^^; worrying

Just like how he acts and sees the Sarafan before he strikes at 0.2, similiar thing.
