Tallgesse VS. ________

[Demongod86]

I'm wondering...does Tallgeese III have a ZERO system? If so, wouldn't Zechs absolutely wipe the floor with anybody since it literally predicts all of the situations way ahead of time with supercomputer power?

If that's the case, being attached to the ZERO system would blot out all newtype influences, and out-newtype the newtypes.

A.) No it does not.

B.) Even if it does, the ZERO System does NOT actually predict the future. It only offers POSSIBLE outcomes to tons of different situations which all depend on the course of action a person may take, which has tons of possibilities. Therefore, there is no set course of action for the pilot to take unless the system takes over, in which it makes all the decisions for the pilot (which has bad consequences as shown in the anime). Even then, it's not a 100% possibility that the opponent will do exactly what the computer THINKS it might do either, so it can still be taken over by surprise.

Hell, the Universal Century actually has its own ZERO System really...known as the bio-computer used during the F90II and F91 series, which actually does perform the same type of actions as the ZERO System really...from MAHQ:

"The F90II also served as the first testbed for the revolutionary new "bio-computer" system, a derivative of the classic psycommu system which relayed tactical data, sensor system input, and piloting control advice directly to into the pilot's brain. This system, which not only allowed a new pilot to more easily adapt to the Gundam F90II, but also made for faster pilot decisiveness and reaction time, would later be incorporated into the Gundam F91."

That's pretty much what the ZERO System does. And it has already been proven that it is NOT an invincible tool at all. Any good enough pilot (sometimes can depend on the unit they use too) can even beat a unit equipped with the ZERO System.

Wouldn't the ZERO system drive you insane? I mean suicidal and homicidal? With that computer inside your head.... it would definetly drive someone to the brink of madness.

Only if you let it take over your actions like most other pilots ended up. (even Heero and Zechs fell victim to it a couple times, but managed to retake control later on).
