What if two guests got into a shootout?


I don't remember anyone talking about this but what if two human guests got into a fight over a cardgame or whatever? They wouldn't know if they were robots or real people and could easily murder each other cause the guns are real aren't they? They say the guns won't shoot at anything with a high body temperatures but bullets don't just vanish once shot and that leaves a wide range of possibilities of missing their intended target and killing someone standing nearby right? You shoot a bullet up into the air and it comes down somewhere else and could easily kill an innocent guest.

That one fellow that said he'd just been sheriff of Westworld for two weeks? What was he doing? Arresting people for shooting robots? And did they hang them after the trial?

I see they have a reboot series coming and I wonder how in the world they are going to pull an entire season of shows out of this concept. It is great for a single film but an entire series? Wouldn't the military simply move in and nuke the park if they couldn't control it any other way?

I can't see any of the three worlds being big draws for black people either. Would you want to visit the West of the 1800s when slavery was still in vogue?

Yes, in real life this would never operate with real guns, the dangers are just too big. Well, the idea itself is pretty big, it would need hundreds of adjustments thou to work in real life, but I believe it could be doable.

Westworld - No real guns. They would have to do with paintball or with tiny harmless bullets.

The other two - No blades, they would have to do with soft wooden weapons that would still be dangerous.

All the three - There would have to be real people in almost every room to take quick action if something went badly. They could disguised, tho.

Health and Safety inspectors would have a field day in there.

The movie discusses this, the guns don't work on humans... it has sensors
