The Plague: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 02:19, 23 February 2024

This article is about the disease featured in Red Faction. For the alien race featured in Red Faction: Armageddon, see The Alien Plague.

The Plague is a result of the nanotechnology experimentation conducted by the Ultor Corporation and, more specifically, Dr. Capek. The disease was featured in Red Faction.

Progression

Plague victim who has just collapsed.

Death.

Full mutation.

Though the exact nature of the Plague is never explained in the game, fans have speculated about its progression.

The Plague results from human exposure to nanites created by Capek. It is thought that when such nanites enter a human body, they begin to attack the brain. The attack stops all non-essential neuro-muscular functions, causing the victim to fall to the ground and making them unresponsive.

It is at this point that the nanites proceed to replicate, systematically taking over the entire body of the victim. Some nanites appear to over-replicate, producing tumor-like bulges on the victim's body. The victim's body and immune system will either accept the nanites -- leading to severe mutations -- or reject the nanites, resulting in death.

Cure

Curing the plague is fairly straightforward; in Capek's own words, all that needs to be done is stop the replicators. This is done by administering an antidote.

This is done by administering an antidote -- likely a chemical solution that interrupts the nanites' replication process. Once the replicators are stopped, the remaining nanites will eventually stop operating, and the body will slowly return back to normal.

-==Trivia== through out the mission of red faction there are some graffiti  saying "the plague is coming for you" it maybe be a reference for future missions and upcoming enemies.
