nomofica 1 Posted March 4, 2013 Yeah, i've been tackling this ARG with these guys for a while now. given up many hours of sleep when we finally got access to igor's account. We've run through that server several times with a fine tooth comb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antoineflemming 14 Posted March 4, 2013 I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that there's not much left to do, if anything, before the Alpha is released. The last thing we were told to do was to meet Igor's informant at a restaurant on Stratis. So we've got to complete that, and we can't do that until the Alpha is released. Not only that, but seems like the shells.wmv is the same screenshot we saw in Shacktac's ArmA3 preview. Just looks like a similar angle. Could be wrong though. I just don't think there's anything left to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bovine3dom 70 Posted March 4, 2013 According to who? My initial question stands; has anyone done a spectral analysis of the radio transmission and/or the dial-up.ogg? Yes. Read the thread. Someone posted a spectrogram in the very early days of the console. There is no substitute for reading the whole thread - all 78 pages. Grab yourself a cup of tea, and get started.

Burgerlolz 1 Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Don't forget about http://piratepad.net/QeoghALhgK , the pace as considerably slowed down as there seems to be some mistake being made by the ARG organisators, if you read this, you should really send new intel asap, nothing has been progressing the ARG Since the terminal access. Thanks. What I mean is that it's very surprising to see Tom's blog post one entire day after we got access to the terminal, then get a "Disk full" error after Tom's post, now it's accesible again but strictly nothing changed on the FTP. It's not an ARG if there's isn't any progress :| Edited March 4, 2013 by Burgerlolz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antoineflemming 14 Posted March 4, 2013 Lighthouse Restaurant. Not an actual lighthouse. It's codename is the lighthouse. That's why it'd in "quotations". @Burgerlolz: I already explained why there seems to be no progress. We haven't completed the last task yet. The last task was the last email, which says to meet the informant at the restaurant. We complete that tomorrow. That's the very next thing we have to do. Remember, the Alpha and the ARG are not separate. The ARG depends on the Alpha. And the blog did say that we will need the Alpha to complete some of the tasks. This task is one of them. Does it really hurt to take a break for one day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does it really hurt to take a break for one day? This is kzrts by the way, i've heard that a lot alreadly no need to repeat yourself. I'm just saying there seems to be evident proof of unprofessionalism regarding the ARG, some of the info we get just don't make sense. If you think about it for a second, we haven't discovered anything besides the eye candy stuff and that MD5 hash, the password was given to us (not sure it was supposed to) , the login was given to us. (And for the 25th time antoine, please let people do their things, nobody's forcing you to do anything. ) As you know , a bunch of people are seriously involved in it, trying to solve the mystery, yet it's too unclear what we're supposed to do, I'm not saying the clues should be obvious, of course not, but some sort of clues at some point would be nice. I'm still unsure if we were supposed to discover the login/password to igor's account by ourselves, but if this was the case, it was impossible to achieve as there wasn't enough information. A stagnant arg which is not managed daily is just boring and unefficient. So jerry if you read this, we love your ARG and what you're doing, but it seems like your arg is not logically structured, no offense intended, as I said, we do enjoy it. We haven't had anything new in 3 days now, and the message is telling us to do that by tomorrow. Edited March 4, 2013 by Burgerlolz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted March 4, 2013 Criticisms of the ARG can be made elsewhere. Discussions not pertinent to solving the ARG must stop right now, thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very well, I'm not really complaining though, mostly eager to get our hands on more information regarding it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YagrumStrelok 10 Posted March 4, 2013 I wish I realised this ARG was going on sooner... missed out on a lot of fun! I haven't had a chance to read through all 80 pages yet due to work, so apologies if this has already been solved... Mike-26 appears on Armaholic's page with ARG & Dslyecxi's new screenshots (number 20 on the page, cant link due to my first post) Looks like its a sign to some sort of radar installation. In addition to ''lighthouse" maybe it would be a good idea to investigate tomorrow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
