-CivGeneral after receiving his CODEC

Coming soon to your iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad. The CODEC!

-Steve Jobs

Wait, CODEC? He installed CODEC in my brain?
Of course, Stylesrj is an expert with nanotechnology

- Rhiza Kalanin and Rosalina talking about why her head is ringing.

Yeah, how do they see each other?

DYOS Use

It's unknown if J.C. Reitan possess the CODEC, since his Gmod model is of an older Snake. Let alone which version[1].

Classic Solid Snake CODEC

You see, there are a lot more practical uses for the CODEC than you think

-General Kwai

CODEC is a device which Stylesrj uses for communications between two or more people. It utilises nanomachines in a person's head to send and receive signals.

Normally it comes with a beeping ringtone, but Stylesrj modified his versions to sound more like the phones from 24

CODEC is found in many different places, including market research and delivery companies, making it more of a civilian communications system rather than military. Though other factions and nations have modified the CODEC to fit the needs of there armies (see below)

Modified Solid Snake CODEC

It's more than likely this modified variant of this CODEC is utilized by members of the Brotherhood of Steel within the command hierarchy (Paladins and above) as well as Army Officers and NCOs in the field in the Armed Forces of the Republic of Coruscant as well as the Storm Commandos. It's referred to as the MSSCODEC on official records as well as within it's source code.

The CODEC comes in a different form of an internal cybernetic component which works similar to Stylesrj. The MSSCODEC has the ability to go into text mode (referred to as IRC mode). The user simply mentally talks to or types in there message. The MSSCODEC is also backwards and forwards compatible with existing CODEC technologies, including nanomachine based CODECs.

It's unknown whether or not if it's an exploit or a bug. Fully cybernetic individuals like Motoko Kusanagi can make herself as a CODEC interface[2] to allow characters who don't have the neural implant communicate with CivGeneral via Motoko.

Notes

  1. More than likely the classic variant if confirmed
  2. Similar to what she did in Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KV_SLpT8jok

Behind the Scenes

  • In the real world, a similar concept exit. Abet in a scale larger than nanomachines/neural interface. Though it's known as Videoconferencing instead of "CODEC".
  • Did you know: This contraption is being developed behind the curtains by CivGeneral and Stylesrj?
