The x wings caught the death star before it unloaded even a fraction of its on board armada, the ig88 was stopped by ONE LONE ASTROMECH there are a few hundred thousand on board, so yea not saying the network in impenetrable but certainly pretty sophisticated.
Tarkin underestimated the rebel's offensive capabilities, so through blind ambition and arrogance he lost.

If ig88 nearly detroyed it, then surely aleast some of the capabilities of the deathstar can be crippled(defensive or offensive ), same going for the destroyers, and a few well timed MAC cannons can then take out the deathstar.

Edited by DarthBrando: 9/1/2015 2:23:53 AMDeath star is ray shielded and has like a few KM thick of special density alloy blast/impact armor. Ig88 is a one of a kind assassin android who killed his programmer after he was turned on. Each droid an astromech has their OWN AI and there are a few hundred thousand on the death star. Star destroyers shields must be dropped FIRST otherwise any incoming projectile with less than 1/3 the mass of the ship WONT get through the shield.
-
Each droid has its own AI? Man, the logic plague is gonna have a field day
-
They arent networked unless that droid happens to be plugged into that network: Androids are standalone non networked systms After the battle of naboo even the trade federation made their battle droids non network linked
-
The droids have to give and receive broadcasts to give and receive orders, ergo the logic plague/Ancillas,Smart AIs could infiltrate them.
-
No they dont, in star wars, droids recieve orders the same way people do; by holonet broad cast over a coms link that IS NOT integrated into their on board OS systems.

And how did an A-wing get past a destroyer's shield. (Ball park guess: its probably not a third of its size)
-
Edited by DarthBrando: 9/1/2015 2:57:24 AMBefore the a wing impacted they lost one of their shield generators er deflector arrays (those ball things on top of the bridge section)
-
Really, because i remember them having to lower their shields in order to release fighters, and they couldent raise it back to full power in time.
-
The hangar bays are on the bottom and sides of the super star destroyer not the top. So they are protected by separate shields. A set of x wings an bombers did a strafing run on the bridge section destroying one of the deflector arrays: Admiral Piet "intensify forward deflector screens" Imperial officer "one of our deflectors are gone, no time!" Then boom On the death stars: The hangers are ray shielded, then the ports the hangars are located in along the mid rim of the battle station are also protected by a individually controllable deflector screen independent from the rest of the station (on the completed stations) Ect... (Notice when the executioner (super star destroyer) smashed into the 2nd death star there was a massive explosion but minimal dmg to the station it self)

A dumb AI might have trouble , but smart AIs are on a whole different level
-
Ig88 is far from dumb, hes sighted as one of the most intelligent bounty hunters in the galaxy and hes an android. R2d2 is also extremely smart tho quirky
-
Dumb AIs arent dumb, they are incredibly smart like ig88, they're just called that because Smart AIs a FAR more intelligent and much more capible than their fellow dumb AIs. (Smart AIs can use reason)
-
C3p0 can use deductive reasoning and compared to ig88 and 4 lom or ig86 hes a dunce
-
Dumb AI also can reason, just Smart ones are much more capable and better at it. If your saying C3PO is on the same level as a Dumb AI, no. Dumb AIs are far more complex than a protocol droid.
-
C3p0 is fluent in 6 billion languages/communication forms, can compute intense logic sequences, carry out menial tasks, recognize objects and individuals, handle diplomacy himself and more Compared to any of the assassin droids or bounty hunter droids hes a total moron though
-
The UNSC haven't encountered 6 billion dialects yet, and the AIs can decifer any dialect just by encoutering it. Plus 3PO had those languages programed into him. Hes just a walking roseta stone.
-
Im aware but like i said 3p0 isnt any where near the smartest droid the SWU offers. The data droids at the jedi temple can do similar things. Check out the deleted scenes from ep2 when obi takes the kaminoan saberdart to be analyzed
-
I remember that, but aren't those just memory banks being acessed. Its practicality the future google.
-
Thats what an ANDROID is; Independently thinking AI contained in a standalone system bound by its programming with access to any reference materials or programing it is given; Having logic minded AI almost ALL have 10k to 1billion times the aptitude for pattern recognition and decrypting vs a normal super genius human being And thats just a simple explanation and it applies to 3p0 as well.
-
Thats what i would describe as a VI(virtual intelligence) , I see (smart) AIs as fully aware of things, having a personality, being self preserving, and haveing emotions such as loyalty, love, hate, fear, and so on. And most of the feelings arent programmed, they grow and are discovered as the AI grows as a being.
-
Right but i mean 3p0 and r2d2 as well as all but like the gonk droids an binary encoded droids all pretty much are self aware: obey asimov's 3 laws of robotics and have their own personalities as well as being functional logic and computational machines.
-
From what ive seen, i would agree with r2 being more self aware based on his feelings he displays, like his loyalty with Skywalker
