This is lowkey one of my favorite jokes in the show

I feel like I AGAIN nearly forgot about this blog. Silly me. NEW-U STATIONS THIS TIME. I consider them as a canon.

1. Much like Fast Travel Network, New-U stations can capture then later revive someone only in a certain area. That’s said, if you go too far away from the station, you’ll probably be lost. Turrets at the outskirts here for a very that reason.

2. You can also be lost if somebody turn New-U station off when you die…

3. Or if somebody pull your data off from the New-U stations network database.

4. To have a privilege to be resuscitated, you have to be indispensable enough but not god-like indispensable. CEOs, Chairmen, Directors can’t reappear at such positions after their tragic death, only in minor roles like Chief CEO/Director/Chairman Advisor or Saw-Afterdeath Ghostly Board Advisors. This rule is unbreakable or the Galaxies would have an almost absolute Undeads, and whoever came up with this Rule of Duying was an asshole, and his name was Lawrence de Quidt.

4.1. Handsome Jack’s DNA was corrupted by vault hunters. Angel’s never found. Roland could have been saved but Angel didn’t had a chance to add his DNA to the system again (she did for 6 others, though). Lilith, Mordecai and Brick and other newly joined vault hunters and their allies and friend can’t die on most part of the Pandora at least for now.

4.2. imagine how tiny tina might have been hated the fact that her parents and roland were cut off from the new-u system while jack’s not

4.3. new u can be hacked. this is how in bl1 vault hunters were respawned

4.4. jack did broke The Rule sometimes. the reason why he isn’t an Advisor is his election. nobody had claimed his position officially, and this topic is what i’ll talk about later

5. You can buy a spot in New-U for a very reasonable price (you need a life, you buy a new one!). Or a company can pay a spot for you while you are accomplish some very dangerous task. Speaking of indispensability… Sometimes it’s better to give you a second, third, 100th chance than find another a bit too smart idiot to do something correctly.

6. How New-U stations know when exactly you have died is a mystery. Only New-U specialists can tell you but nor Hyperion neither DAHL will let it happen.

7. The answer, however, hiding in the A.I. acronym.

8. Bandits do not resuscitating. They can’t afford it neither hack it.

9. Not all companies have their branded New-Us. E.g., Atlas was that confident about their technologies that they used it as a marketing strategy. Why backdooring & cheating when our guns as merciless as die-hard money wasting?

10. You’d better not commit suicide while being in the New-U database…
