Max_Caine Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) The Chief Scientist is quite a character. Sarcastic, aloof, vain.... and those are his good traits. His personality is as abrasive as steel wool, and I couldn't imagine for a moment working with the man, and that's what great about him - you have a good picture of who he is. I'd like to ask was the Chief Scientist based on anyone in particular? While his personality is fairly one-dimensional (he hates everyone) I've known and worked with people like the Chief Scientist, and he's more real than you might first think.

Shadow86 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 He reminds me of Otacon, from the Metal Gear Solid series. At least in appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrakorn Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Hey, he saved the base a bunch of times and is a freaking genius (designing aircraft in a few hours like it's nothing), so I can kinda forgive his bad attitude. But yeah, I would love to know if Chris based him on someone he knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solver Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I would say most programming nerds, myself included, could have served as an inspiration for the character Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selgald Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I think he is this doctor guy from stargate universe ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isoor Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 His appearance reminds me of Otacon from MGS, but his behaviour reminds me of Dr McKay from Stargate/Stargate: Atlantis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I'd say he's at least partially inspired by Baltar from the new series of Battlestar Galactica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MortuusSum Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I'd say he's at least partially inspired by Baltar from the new series of Battlestar Galactica. I just started watching that (at the insistence of my friend's dad; he just pushed a stack of blu-ray discs into my hands and told me to watch) and that is spot on. I am hyped beyond belief by this revelation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chefsbrian Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Excellent, because he speaks exactly like that in my head . Makes the reaper autopsy a beauty to behold . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
