Does Bree see the OpAphid videos

I'm curious what the official "ingame" stance is on this question.

If Bree DOES see them, then it leads to certain conclusions about OpAphid's meaning behind her videos.

If Bree doesn't, then it means an almost completely different reason for OpAphid to show us the images she choses to show.

So . . . somebody who knows . . . please let us know if Bree sees OpAPhid's videos or not (ingame).

Thanks

no bree doesn't see the opaphid videos.
this is what we are lead to assume right at this moment, as they are JUST discovering the character Tachyon, but have not seen her videos.

If Bree saw the Op videos it would totaly destroy the storyline...

Anytime anyone mentions the forum, or LG15.com, or OpAphid, she ignores it, b/c she's a Character in a game, and Op videos are player moves she cannot see.

yea they are nessarly "videos" but more like...letting us know what Op is doing.

BRee does videos,
Op just shows us her moves. Same with Tachyon

I understand the logic behind what you are saying.

Personally, I think it's a bit confusing and somewhat strange that OpAphid can see LG15's vids, but not the other way around.

But. I see what you both are saying, and from this point forward, I'll play as though Bree does NOT see the Aphid vids.

Thanks.

I don't think the storyline would be destroyed if Bree saw the videos. It would just change things significantly.

Sorry for three in a row.

One more question/conclusion.

The audience for Aphid's videos are us and Tachyon. Yes?

yea and what i assumed the rest of the order internationally spread out so everyone can keep updated.

AND

the story line they are running with at the moment would be ruined because the assumption is that BRee is completely oblivious to how rooted and powerful the operation is in the world.
For example the police, electritians, hospitals, etc etc.

Although bree now knows that the police can not be trusted (as mentioned in a few of her videos)

I know Oppys vids are aimed toward us, but I don't know about Tachy.

Point Well Made. ^_^ Those are exactly my thoughts.

yeah, that would make the last two videos dangerous to Op since Tach is, to some degree, in contact with Bree and Daniel. It's a strange IG/OOG line being drawn.

Strange unspoken rules of this game. I'll try to keep up, but the PMs really expect a high level of logic suspension with this game.

Tachyon may or may not see OpAPhid's videos
Bree doesn't see them
But Tach and Aphid can both see Bree's videos.

Got it. It's a fine line, but I think I get it now.

Thanks again

I'm not sure that it's on the PM that it goes this way. If only one side ran everything it may be more coherent but each side needs to progress their stories with the help but not the hinderance of the other story.

Sure it's the PM's responsibility.

Tachyon and OpAphid are designed by the same makers, and they make the rules that those characters play by. They had more options available than posting all the videos on Youtube to be publically viewed by anyone at anytime. If it's the intention of the PMs for us to automatically assume the above mentioned rules, then I think it's a somewhat unrealistic expectation causing potential confusion

But like I said before. I understand now, and I can go along with it.

I mean with respect to Bree and Daniel. That is a seperate issue that hasn't been dealt with. Particularly since oppy seems to see everyone at all times.
