Why did Operation Dark Storm fail?
In the Second Renaissance (and in the original Matrix for that matter) it's said that the humans blotted out the sky (in the Matrix it's implied to be some kind of nuclear winter thing but in the Second Renaissance they use nanite bombs sort of like crop dusters). The idea was to stop the machines because they were dependent on solar power. But we're made to watch the whole thing, and then nothing happens at all. It just carries on like nothing has changed.
But then why did it fail?
Either the machines were uniformly dependent on solar power, in which case there's no reason it shouldn't've worked, or they weren't, in which case the humans look so stupid and foolish as to be unsympathetic. But it's never explained. Did the humans know that every machine used solar power? Did the machines somehow survive and adapt in the middle of it, or did they already know this was going to happen and adapt ahead of time? If so then how did the humans not notice?
This has been driving me nuts ever since I saw it.
Why did Operation Dark Storm fail?
I remember the machines started using some alternative form of power before they switched to humans. That's what those floating electric pyramids were at the final battle.
The simpler explanation is that these weren't well thought out movies. They're not exactly the MCU afterall.
Because of the thing called "nuclear power"
>Did the machines somehow survive and adapt in the middle of it
Probably this, considering a constant theme is that machines are smarter and better able to adapt than humans.
I was thinking it was "a majority of machines power supply comes from solar" but also "that majority is something like 52%. There are other power sources available.
Pretty sure humanity was already fucked by the time Dark Storm was carried out. 01 was already on a warpath killing everything, and the plan came too late.
My bigger concern is how the machines were immune to the EMPs from the nuclear bombardments. But I suppose if they weren't, the machines could never have won.

>No we block the sun
Humans as battery was inefficient to begin with
user please no nightmares
They were made about a decade too soon. Now we have shit like neural imaging almost in real time.
They can't have been immediately reliant on solar power or machines wouldn't work at night or indoors. They probably have batteries that lasted long enough to find an alternative source of power.
Definitely an act of desperation.
Nuking to block the sun was probably a lot easier and more efficient
All they had to do is targetting a major volcano and trigger a major volcano activity
Putting 22 movies that work out in the end is well thought out
First sentence is completely accurate and based. Second sentence is retarded and retardpilled.
Machines could have just eradicated humans and used nuclear power. Shit would have been easier.
the liberal writers thought solar power is more efficient than nuclear

those cars were pretty badass to be fair
FIRE ON THE GUNS YOURE GONNA GET WASTED OUT T
Why didn't they cover all the humans in magnets so they'd brick the robot hard drives just by walking near them?
We had it coming.
The ambassadors were cute, the one even has a top hat.

The machines switched to geothermal energy.
>Story about the hubris and short sightedness of humanity and how it leads to their downfall and replacement of a materially superior being
>"Why did the humans in this instance make a decision that was short sighted and hubristic that ended up being ineffective against a being that clearly had swiftly developed past the point in which the general understanding of them by humans was severely outdated and thus tactically beyond their grasp?"
This.
All solar powered machines store energy in a battery for emergencies and nightime. It stands to reason that a super advanced solar powered society would have plenty of reserve energy. The humans simply didn’t anticipate them discovering a renewable energy source before their reserve ran out.
DEATH TO ALL TOP HAT ROBOTS
What about bowler hats?
This short only proved that the human leaders were short sighted unredeemable power hungry retards that didn't care about their own people.
>humanity shooting itself in the foot
who would have thought!
fucking baited you tit
Failed because Yang wasnt president of the world
>bad guy die
>good guy live
>well thought out
01 was on a warpath because humanity nuked them. The machines tried multiple times to make peace, but were denied every time. Humanity as a whole had grown extremely arrogant and stupid.
Can make ai and robots. Don't know about geothermal..... Yikes.....
