ArmA 2 site hacked

Has anybody worked out what XOR gate on the side of the APC was all about?

XOR logic is mentioned on the Wikipedia page for the number 42.

Yes it was the technique used to obtain the picture from the four other pictures on Saturday's hack

How's about you use the all-so-useful search function?

The absolute excellent end result, a real photo is found by Kamran, most likely by utilizing the XOR logic gate functions.

Guys come on... even if you don't want to read through 50 pages of posts, a look in the wiki is the easiest way to found answers regarding latest hacks.

what if we interpret the 21 numbers in 3 sets of seven?

1113015 1112001 0101310

The questions all relate to OFP/Arma universe places - are all the weapons/places and dates valid in the game, ie is there an extra as a clue ? I am thinking there was an OFP mod for the Falklands, so I wonder if the other weapon questions are also current or past mods, and where the Nogova 1982 crisi is accurate (can't remember offhand) or would have been 1985 ?

cj

Yeah, already mentioned this.

Most of them were made in some mod, but I don't remember a railgun or AN-94 Abakan anywhere. It doesn't make much sense to me to ask about some random mod content anyway and it doesn't seem to have any connection to the previous hacks either.

And the 1982 is accurate.

Got a reply to my PM:

No comment

Looks like this is a no go, just as I suspected. ;)

We need to find out how to turn the numbers into a date.

[rhaggan 10]

if you add them together in the 3 sets of 7 you get 14/6/6

which could be june 14th 2006 or june 6th 2014

[maddogx 13]

Neither of which makes any sense in this context.

Worth a shot. At least we now know its all about the numbers.

Isnt that 12/6/6 ? Could be 6 June 2012 in that case.

[Big-Rooney 5]

does the first set of numbers when combined not equal too 12 1+1+1+3+0+1+5=12

that would mean it it would be 12/6/6 not 14/6/6. 2012 sounds like a plausible release date for an expansion

Edit: Just before me CJ

[Alwarren 2767]

I think it is safe to say that "shedding some light" on this is going to be much earlier. I would think that the date we're looking for is not too far into the future.

At least I frigging hope so :)

Maybe yeah, but on aan news you can read that the date is supposed to the date where we would get answers. So 2012 is still out of context.

...so we convinced the developers to at least hint when they will shed some light onto the matter.

not if BIS seriously wanna play this out.. they could try and mostly fail to drag this till 2012 but i do believe that information will find its way out long before this date.

This seems to just be a good date to release DLC not announce it :cool:

[Sky999 10]

I thought there was meant to be some big reveal today? :j:

[Coffeecat 10]

i didnt follow every hack, was the site with the login and pw allready "cracked"?

maybe the numbers are related to this?

[maddogx 13]

Wishful thinking is abuntant in this thread.

[jakerod 254]

How do we know the numbers are supposed to be a date? Did I miss something?

EDIT: Also is there perhaps some meaning in the reason why some questions are short (multiple choice) and others are long (multiple choice)?

[Big-Rooney 5]

nobody's 100% sure they are dates but its the path this clue has gone off on, nobody has suggested they be anything else, this one seems to have everyone stumped.

From the AAN report today.

Quote from aan-online.com

We decided to ask the developers themselves to comment on the situation. At first, they didn’t want to comment at all, even in the future. It’s quite clear the fans are really impatient and most importantly do not see any tangible results, so we convinced the developers to at least hint when they will shed some light onto the matter. We received only some sort of weird questions after they agreed. We have no idea whether to send back the right answers or wait for some explanation.

[nettrucker 144]

Bear in mind that this year's gonna be the 10th year anniversary of OFP CWC and I speculate that BIS is cooking something in their magical kitchen to celebrate this event.

OMG can't believe that a decade has passed since I first played OFP CWC.

kind regards

Or: 151515 17515 111515 1545 5155 15515 17155 using the table on AAN

Whoops, didn't even realize that the table actually was a question. My bad! :D

[jakerod 254]

21 (Wikipedia)

I thought that might give someone an idea.

Is it possible that the numbers in the last question are also used? 15 4 17 7 11

They chose those ones for a reason... or randomly which ever.
