[cunning cairn]

must be a UESC deep cover agent

[soft grotto]

I love it, Durandal told us “hey you’re gonna get your shit rocked, but that’s just how it goes”

[candid crystal]

RESET JUST HAPPENED I LIED I WANNA SEE U GET 4 RUNS IN BEFORE NEXT

[lime anchor]

wait what the fuck

hi

[earnest ivy]

I'm back again after being out what's new what's happened

[lime anchor]

why am i getting recognized i dont release music

[white pawn]

LMFAOOOO whats up goat

[white pawn]

oh true

[lime anchor]

luv u purple i appreciate u

[lime anchor]

now less talking more running

[plush terrace]

To folks new, here's an interactive map

https://crowdtypical.github.io/Marathon-arg/terminal_maps.html#dire-marsh

[white pawn]

SIR YES SIR!!

[native steeple]

just logged in to complete this

[elfin bone]

i wonder if all these failures to exfil is gonna cause statistic issues lol

[native steeple]

where exactly do we start ai uplink or algae ponds?

and what does us doing this actually do?

[elfin bone]

cause ive failed to exfil like ... a hunred times ?

[agile ravine]

Cyan building, 2nd floor

[agile bluff]

WORDS TO LIVE BY. AND RUNNING FROM ALGAE - BIO IS THE WORD

[fresh bolt]

no need to exfil

[agile bluff]

God i hope not 😂

[flat star]

ARG to work towards cryo archives

[earnest ivy]

this is hella useful thank you

[elfin bone]

like, if/when they add player stats page in codex ... im gonna have a horrible success rate 😄

[agile bluff]

someone link the website

[agile ravine]

This completely changes the game I thought i purchased. So we getting the story via ARG, amazing stuff bungie

[native steeple]

okay so just do algae to bio right now?

[flat star]

yep!

[agile bluff]

Ahahahaha that’s SO TRUE

[agile ravine]

Yup

[broken light]

Just killed a guy with only a knife after doing a terminal

[native steeple]

cause the map had us start at ai up[link

or is that already done

[jade star]

@broken light that was probably me🤣

[blazing steppe]

My meta quest somehow woke up and started talking about it's battery being low while I was crouched outside of bio and I nearly jumped out of my chair

[flat star]

ignore for now, just do algae to bio

[valid maple]

ALGAE PONDS -> BIO-RESEARCH

[agile ravine]

Already finished, on step 3

[candid crystal]

DURANDAL SPEAKS TO YOU... HE TELLS YOU TO RUN

[elfin bone]

yeah, i go on a kamakazi run after i hit the terminal lol ... teams be all 'wtf is this rook doing ?!'

[soft grotto]

The idea is once we secure the three dire marsh associated camera feeds for the marathon, the three on outpost will turn on. We get those secured and then we’ll have found “the way” on board the ship

[flat star]

nah we haven't gotten AI uplink but we need to focus one pair and we're doing algae to bio

[agile ravine]

Rook is your friend for current run, super simple

[wind cedar]

Hey im asking if they are going to make lobbys for duos

[wraith valve]

i think theres more after that probably lol

[wind cedar]

Anyone knows?

[agile bluff]

45% ITS GOING UP

ALGAE - BIO

[broken light]

I play destroyed, you move way faster, works out better fkr what were doing

[elfin bone]

ask in general, not here, thanks!

[tired roost]

It’s going up?

[soft grotto]

Oh probably, knowing Bungie

[tired roost]

I’ll log in and do more runs then. I took a short break

IO.yster thank you for doing this all day

[elfin bone]

i waste too much time spawning too far away and going through setup and waiting in queues .... rook i drop in instantly, seem to always be near the start terminal, and i just bolt through fast

[agile bluff]

Because we’re such Silkies - keep resting if you need

[soft grotto]

Did 7 (lmao) runs this afternoon before work 🫡

[lament stirrup]

of course everytime i try to do terminal runs everyone suddenly is incredibly bloodthirsty for rooks

[tired roost]

Can’t rest when something like this is happening

[agile bluff]

You don’t even wanna know what i’m doing right now 😂

[open shoal]

I sentence you to 5000 years in the arg mines

[elfin bone]

rooks join an already-in-progress round, so there is ZERO wait time

[tired roost]

The terminal campers are so bad tho bro

[candid crystal]

SOMEONE DID 7 RUNS BEFORE A RESET DO WE HAVE THEM BEAT

[faint thicket]

gently reminder

[polar nacelle]

holy marathon

[toxic igloo]

Anybody knows what these are for?

[soft grotto]

I got CRAZY lucky with my spawns dude

[elfin bone]

go touch green!

[flat star]

yeah it's been getting worse

[tired roost]

Yeah just don’t touch the runners while they touch the terminals.

[late wing]

Now I wanna know

[elfin bone]

maybe ask in general chat

[toxic igloo]

I can't send images there

[elfin bone]

so, we aint gonna answer in here 😄

[molten umbra]

Can we touch erm... while they touch ... okay nevermind

[tired roost]

my guess is he’s marathoning his uhhh

[jovial dune]

contract unrelated to this, this channel is dedicated to the arg please go somewhere else

[flat star]

it's a quest

[delicate minnow]

traxus story quest, robbed someone of their quest run

[agile bluff]

BE LIKE THIS GUY AND DO 7 RUNS FROM ALGAE - BIO. BUT DONT BE LIKE THIS GUY AND QUIT YOUR JOB TO RUN ALGAE - BIO

[soft grotto]

Traxus contract, probably looted the off my corpse earlier (I did 3 runs in a row to complete that and got shot on sight all 3)

[wispy storm]

they dont stop killing me in the middle of the terminals :((

[toxic igloo]

Thank you
See it wasn't hard to just answer

[flat star]

use prox chat

[tired roost]

I’m logging in now, can’t rest

[agile bluff]

To be blunt I’m in the shower 😂

[lime anchor]

Skarrow just said to lock in, he's not impressed

[rigid trail]

Skarrow is asking yall to lock in! He's here and pushing

[stark marten]

skarrow says yall gotta lock in

[plucky parcel]

Skarrow says to lock the f**k in

[rigid trail]

LETS DO IIT

[flat star]

sure, but this keeps happening and this isn't the chat for it

[dawn sun]

Man what does he think is happening in here lol

[elfin bone]

GO! stop wasting time answering rando question! GO!

[flint copper]

Algae to Bio you say?

[flat star]

I mean he in here haha

[rigid trail]

he knows lol

[late wing]

I respect the dedication to the arg and still keeping up personal hygiene

[wraith valve]

who tf is skarrow

[tame stream]

what is a reset

[dawn sun]

Yah if he sees this he needs to lock tf in too

[marble mesa]

first run I got killed by someone camping the algee pond terminal

[agile ravine]

The sooner ARG info gets out to gsming public, the sooner this game really takes off.

Its so just not a normal extraction shooter

[polar nacelle]

wow, dinner can wait then, logging back

[dawn sun]

Twitch streamer i think(?)

[toxic igloo]

Actually what is this channel even about

[agile ravine]

ARG

[lime anchor]

yeah, one of the ppl helping to mobilize ppl

[jagged geyser]

Just did 2 terminals with a fellow Rook

[polar nacelle]

yep, he played previous args

[small scarab]

it's for a traxus quest i did it earlier

[dusk venture]

someone that you should and need to know of.

[agile ravine]

Puzzle and quests bungie has behind puzzles

[toxic igloo]

Wasn't that a pre-release thing?

[dawn sun]

Chat whats an arg

[red sentinel]

real quick, what's the biostock terminal path?

[fresh bolt]

its also a post release thing happening in game right now

[lime anchor]

theres plenty ARGs

[dawn sun]

Actually chat now that Im thinking about it, what's a terminal?

[agile bluff]

YOU HEARD HIM SILKMASTERS. LOCK THE F IN. DURANDAL IS HUNTING YOU. HE WANTS TO TOUCH THE TERMINALS BEFORE YOU DO

ALGAE PONDS TERMINAL - BIO-RESEARCH

[toxic igloo]

Oh cool, do they give in game stuff?

[agile ravine]

GO GO GO RUNNERS

[ocean yacht]

not the bad touch!!!

[lament stirrup]

these runners are starting to piss me off

[tired roost]

Side note what does ARG even stand for

[fringe pike]

RAAAAAAAAAAAA LETS GET EM

[polar nacelle]

terminal is out bond with durandal

[agile bluff]

It will lead to cryo archive releasing

[red sentinel]

🙏

[bleak heath]

alternate reality game

[tired roost]

Just the new map and lore

[toxic igloo]

Oh damn

[agile bluff]

Eventually

[celest crest]

Also curious 👀

[tired roost]

Ah okay

[dawn sun]

No erm actually the terminal is bingus

[agile bluff]

IF YOUR TYPING AND NOT RUNNING YOU WONT BEAT THAT ONE GUY WHO GOT 7 RUNS FROM ALGAE PONDS - BIO RESEARCH

[polar nacelle]

glory to bingus

[tired roost]

i’m typing while the game loads and i load in. does that count

[dry arch]

So you could say our need for people to go Algae to Bio is…Dire

[lime anchor]

access to a whole map i'd say

[cyan lantern]

I thought my 5 was good... Dang

[random dove]

SekGen slaughter this ones shells

[lime anchor]

good lord.

[lunar skiff]

Just getting on. Algae to bio... got it

[fast valve]

wait can you do it multiple times in a round?

[tired roost]

No

[molten umbra]

That was cool met a fellow arg runner haha

[tired roost]

In a 15 minute cycle, yes

[fast valve]

ah right

i think my best is like 4 or 5, 7 is diabolical

[plucky parcel]

You cant do multi per round, but you dont have to exfil

[toxic igloo]

So what have we done for the ARG and what do we need to do

[tired roost]

my back hurts so much from sitting in a chair doing this for 2 days now

[still loom]

reporting for duty what we doing?

[tired roost]

for perimeter and now dire

[agile bluff]

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU TERMINAL TOUCH :youtuber face:

ALGAE PONDS - BIO RESEARCH

[sage garden]

can someone link the doc so I can get caught up

[agile bluff]

How long till next update?

[glacial sluice]

now

[opaque sphinx]

NUMBER GOES UP!!!

WE ARE MARTON!!!!

[fast valve]

we found a website, discovered how to talk to durandal, found that you can increase percentages on said site by talking to him, are now grinding percentage bars by running to activate terminals

[fringe lance]

ive been able to do all three in one run with minimal issues, the route on Dire is much better than it was on perimeter

[keen copper]

nice progress

[agile bluff]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?usp=drivesdk

[glacial sluice]

13m to next update

[still loom]

do we know a good route for some of them on dire marsh?

[candid crystal]

DO 1 RUN AT A TIME SOLDIER IT KEEPS GOING DOWN IF WE AINT CONSISTENT

[toxic igloo]

I'd like to ask who tf is durandal but that'd take long so what do I do in game

[agile bluff]

WHATS THE NEW #

[candid crystal]

FOCUS ON GREEN ONLY

[wanton lintel]

Does anyone know what the UESC kill tresholds are for?

[fresh bolt]

up 3%

[north crown]

😅 Are we... helping... rampancy? 🤨

[candid lodge]

Rampant Ai from the OG Marathon Trilogy games

[glacial sluice]

not active right now

[fresh bolt]

45% to 48%

[still loom]

roger that

[amber ivy]

https://crowdtypical.github.io/Marathon-arg/terminal_maps.html#dire-marsh

[wanton lintel]

Thanks!

[kindred turtle]

can we log runs on Rook?

[fringe lance]

show me the source for this

[candid crystal]

STILL GOING UP BETTER THAN GOING DOWN KEEP RUNNING

[fast valve]

focus the green route in the pic above and if you want to catch up read through this site https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/preview?pru=AAABnPiQHhs*z2d5J9onjrhbdzmJ8UTUlw&tab=t.0

[dawn sun]

Yes

[mighty echo]

Aight got 1 run donee

[wraith valve]

yes

[agile bluff]

Duradanl is a AI from the UESC Marathon, he kinda the main character from the original games. Not the one you play but VERY important

[celest nova]

is he a good or a bad guy

he sounds pretty evil

[agile bluff]

Yes

[torpid meteor]

Hes... a guy

[candid lodge]

yes

[torpid meteor]

Not really good or bad

[celest nova]

I understand

[torpid meteor]

I guess it depends on your perspective

[still loom]

can rooks do it?

[wraith valve]

yes

[candid crystal]

I'm at work can't really do it but there's a doc u can find that explains a lot all we know is if we don't run on sync it usually goes down pretty quick we tested it yesterday on permitter

[still loom]

ty

[calm cobalt]

where is the cryo site to monitor the progress?

[fresh bolt]

https://cryoarchive.systems/cargo

https://winnower.garden/marathon/cryoarchive

[keen bay]

man dire spawns suck...

[toxic igloo]

Cool af but I'm too busy getting better loot

[bleak heath]

https://winnower.garden/marathon/cryoarchive is the best place to monitor

[agile bluff]

in a nutshell he wants to escape the heat death of the universe and so does all kinds of crazy shenanigans to do that, hence “Escape will make me god”. He’s also Dramatic as hell

BUT ITS WAY MORE COMPLEX

[broken light]

I've killed 3 guys now with a knife after doing the terminals

[stiff violet]

alright chat i was at work and just did a game of deadlock what we doin now

[copper totem]

Well, I did what I could do, in the end unlocked another few factions. Now time for bed, gl out there and may the camera feeds be stable in the morning.

[fervent wadi]

WhatdImiss

[broken light]

I dont even exfil

[dry shore]

why cargo shows unlocked and the other ones still locked???

[fringe pike]

He has a flair for the dramatic for suuuure, it gets way deeper too

[rancid warren]

Its funny when i get killed doing terminals cuz they don't get anything

[fervent wadi]

Last time I checked in here we were still figuring out Perimeter, I'm so lost now

[fresh bolt]

perimeter is done

[agile bluff]

OOOOH WHO DID YOU PLAY I LOVE DEADLOCK

WELCOME AND GET RUNNING FROM ALGAE - DIRE MARSH

[wraith valve]

same thing just in dire marsh

[copper totem]

Perimeter is done, on to dire marsh

[stiff violet]

ivy, rem

[pulsar ocean]

Holy shit yall got perimeter done???

[whole bridge]

Perimeter finished just afte 1AM

[fervent wadi]

Man this shit is moving too fast for anyone to keep up with 😭

[candid crystal]

THIS THE ROUTE

[stiff violet]

Is it still Rook Runs?

[candid crystal]

What ever gets it done quick

[torpid meteor]

Sooner we get cryo archive the better

[candid lodge]

Would be cool to see if they made more Battleroids after the events of the OG Games. Glad to see other oldheads here xD

[celest nova]

Ive been doing rook runs and its been going really good

[tawny topaz]

rook is the way

[stiff violet]

imagine, the raid boss is a battleroid and when he dies we unlock rockets

[whole bridge]

For those catching up to timeline from yesterday

[north crown]

Rook it to rampancy 🙌 🔥

[tawny topaz]

impossible to get into algae without dropping 10k without rook

[agile bluff]

REM DESERVES TO DIE WITH HIS PILLOW AND HIS SUPER POWERED CREEPS.

BUT IF HE TERMINAL TOUCHES HE IS WELCOME

ALGAE - DIRE

[fringe lance]

i found bingus on dire marsh...does he lead to a secret or is it just for funsies

[open shoal]

Based

[whole bridge]

Puzzle progrss from 7:30 EST yesterday

[turbid rivet]

Hey man that’s uncalled for

[fervent wadi]

Yeah but it'd still be nice if there was like, a proper way top catch up instead of 10 different people saying a slightly different thing before the next 10 people with slightly different things start talking

[wraith valve]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/preview?pru=AAABnPiNuG8*4P3YhRLq0JJPiJvijRQ9Qg&tab=t.0

[agile bluff]

There’s a lot of the OG fans around - some even in this chat but I won’t tag them 😂

[fringe pike]

just do the terminals that simple

[fervent wadi]

Yeah no shit but everything else around that 😭

[keen bay]

Yeah I'm done with that shit, blocking

[agile bluff]

OMG that’s really funny i’m sorry

[turbid rivet]

😂

[candid lodge]

I think the boss is gonna be the Compiler we saw in the trailer for Cryo...but I'd love to see a Rocket Launcher of some capacity eventually added

[dry arch]

People camping the terminals gonna get their consciousness re-uploaded to a lobster if they keep this up…

[fringe lance]

try and use comms/diplomacy

[candid crystal]

The ones camping the terminals are definitely working with the clankers

[candid lodge]

I've been hanging around the end terminal to help those doing the runs after I did mine.

[toxic igloo]

Getting some players to interfere with the ARG is such a bungie thing to do

[dry shore]

why only 'cargo' is unlocked????

[agile bluff]

ANYONE WHO CAMPS TERMINALS WILL GET THE BAD SILKWORMS NEXT RUN. SEKGEN TOLD ME

KEEP RUNNING ALGAE - BIO

[broken light]

I heard other people say it but I just wanna be sure, I dont gotta extract after doing a terminal right

[candid crystal]

Ye

I was jus leaving run

[broken light]

Ok good

[agile bluff]

The voice line is the trigger

[stiff violet]

just had a guy kill me and mock me lmfao

[celest crest]

Do we have to exfil for the run to count?

[agile bluff]

Thanks Null 👆

[candid lodge]

Love to see it! Honestly was my biggest fear coming into this game was that it wasn't gonna respect the og games....boy was I glad to be wrong. Back to running in the murky water!

[wraith valve]

negative

[noble eagle]

You’re Arachne man, tell your people to skin them alive 😭

[toxic igloo]

Oh so that's what the random voice line I've been hearing is

[agile bluff]

nope as long as you get the voice lines

[distant plover]

Just ran all 3 in one run, didnt interact with terminal just walked up to start and end and got a different dialogue for each one. Is there anything else to do? Or just keep running that circuit

[agile bluff]

That’s the Big D himself - played by Ben Starr

[noble eagle]

Which one are we focusing on? I might be able to get a few runs in soon. I don’t know which ones go to which cams in this new set

[tawny glacier]

Have any of the loading bars finished?

[candid crystal]

NUCAL WILL PROVIDE DRINKABLE CHEESEBURGERS FOR LIFE FOR THOSE WHO CAN DO 5 ALGAE RUNS NEXT RESET

[agile bluff]

😂😂

[celest crest]

Cool, cause I just ran like 5 times naked and had a toxic plant take me out after I finished. Then realized I didn’t know if it counted still 😂 thank you

[opaque sphinx]

SO MANY MORE MARATHONS TO RUN!!!

[agile ravine]

Extract not needed

[proud gyro]

If i complete this one it will be my 10th successful terminal

[old harness]

Are we filling a meter or something. Don’t understand why just spam the terminals?

[flat star]

cryoarchive.systems

[torn hare]

U guys are goated for figuring all this out

[digital gate]

So they activated? sweet

[fossil spoke]

How we doin? Only 1 more hour of work till running lol

[torn hare]

These plants are SO DEADLY LOL got hit by one for the first time today

[candid crystal]

Yes exactly that

[gilded drift]

1 minute

[fringe ore]

i think i just ran into one of yall on rook thats whats up

[agile bluff]

I HEAR IF YOU TOUCH ALGAE PONDS TERMINAL AND THEN TOUCH BIO RESEARCH TERMINAL THEN YOU GET EXTRA HP ON YOUR NEXT FIGHT CAVES TZTOK-JAD NO PRAYER SPEEDRUN ATTEMPT

[celest nova]

mightve been me

The plants are the fungus that killed the colonists right

[fringe ore]

[formal cosmos]

carry MCH kits

[keen bay]

a lot of things killed the colonists.

[stiff violet]

Got a terminal duo done

[digital gate]

well yes

[keen bay]

plants, lack of food, AI mishaps, the anomaly.

[somber patrol]

Can someone catch me up to speed from yesterday

[midnight surge]

what are the new paths?

[keen bay]

atleast from what the records say

[polar nacelle]

got 2 more runs

[agile bluff]

🥳🥳🥳 Absolute legend

[agile bluff]

KING OR QUEEN OR INBETWEEN 👑

[stiff violet]

since im doing rook runs, i can just like, leave

[sinful compass]

Tryin my best! o7

[flat star]

jsut got a terminal run in while also just doing a normal shooty shoot run

[somber patrol]

So Dire marsh terminals opened?

[polar nacelle]

48 BIOSSTOCK

[somber patrol]

sick

[agile bluff]

LETS GOOOOO

[whole bridge]

Yep

[clever radish]

What’s the percentage

[gilded drift]

48

[polar nacelle]

WE ARE MARATHONING

[wraith valve]

went down 1%

[glacial sluice]

bio stock down 1%

[bleak heath]

we actually went down by one to 47

[long jackal]

hello just confirming my runs are adding to biostock? 🙂

oh its down 🙁

[glacial sluice]

steerage up

[lofty oak]

What's biostock?

[polar nacelle]

still good

[agile bluff]

they will be

[polar nacelle]

1% is nothing

[digital gate]

how did it go down o.O

[vocal carbon]

Can someone link a rundown of what the deal is with these terminals?

[rapid hearth]

So what is the status?

[wraith valve]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/preview?pru=AAABnPiNuG8*4P3YhRLq0JJPiJvijRQ9Qg&tab=t.0

[formal cosmos]

doin these terminals makes me so good at these maps man

[final leaf]

its the number of completed runs in a given 15 minute window

so it can go down

[candid crystal]

Guys it went down 15% earlier down by 1% isn't the worst

[mortal kite]

i wonder when the streamers are gonna start helping

[vocal carbon]

❤️

[agile ravine]

Failed terminal runs cpunt against it?

[final leaf]

theoretically we could gtom from 99-0 if no one ran for 15 mins lol

[flat star]

we have no idea tbh

[agile ravine]

Ahhh ok. Just spam running this at this point

[agile bluff]

We’ve never tested that theory and we don’t want to now

[formal cosmos]

no, it just decays on its own

[flat star]

yeah better option is everyone focus algae to bio

[whole bridge]

Need to do an unknown number of runs just to keep it even

[safe karma]

im starting to think it does just reset to 0 every time, and the count after 15 minutes just represents how many people did it within those 15

[whole bridge]

More to make it progress

[flat star]

nah cause 48 wouldn't make sense

[final leaf]

it absolutely goes back to 0

[flat star]

they say one voice one trigget so multiple runs should be okay

[slate oracle]

gotta be the case.

[safe karma]

why not?

[flat star]

we don't know this, actually.

[rapid hearth]

What was unlocked at cargo?

[raven cobalt]

Then there should be only 48 ppl running it. We got more for sure

[gilded drift]

This has been my thought the whole time

[final leaf]

if it didn't goback to 0 this would be so easily solvable

[agile bluff]

1% IS NOTHING LOOK AT THAT UPWARDS TREND. AN UPWARDS TRENDING GRAPH WILL ALWAYS TREND UPWARD FOREVER. ITS BASIC STATISTICS RIGHT CORPO ECONOMISTS

SHED YOUR CORPO CHAINS AND GET RUNNING FROM ALGAE - BIORESEARCH

[flat star]

there's more than 48 runs happening

[minor spoke]

this is so cool

[candid crystal]

Yeah but not successful runs

[safe karma]

I mean I dont think the number corresponds exactly to each time its activated

[formal cosmos]

if it reset to 0 we would se it go to 0 lmfao

[gilded drift]

No it can be for every 100 people for example it goes up a percent

[fringe ore]

this guy stock markets

[slate oracle]

agreed

[whole bridge]

Yah single people are doing 2-3

[marble mesa]

that sounds like Traxus propoganda

[flat star]

there's a decay rate but it doesn't reset to 0

[minor spoke]

I need to get to work

[flat kindle]

So realistically it should be this week it unlocks probably Thursday-Friday I’d imagine

[agile bluff]

They also said “one voice one count” and “the whole time counts”

[tawny copper]

just died cause the game decided i shouldnt be able interact with a fucking extract.... nice.

[flat star]

we have been explicitly told by Null that one voice one count so it's about the voice triggers, not the runner

[quick gale]

There is almost definitly more steps after outpost

[whole bridge]

Right. That's my point. No way only 48 triggers are happening

[agile bluff]

It’s more steps per camera IIRC

[flat star]

oh haha I totally misinterpreted what you said my bad

[hasty edge]

there's people camping the terminals

lmao

[safe karma]

I feel like if it was just a decay rate then we shouldnt be going down at all

[flat star]

yeah exactly.

[agile bluff]

STOP ARGUING AND START RUNNING. YOU’RE ALL PUTTING IN SO MUCH GOOD WORK AND IM SO PROUD OF YOU ALL YOU BEAUTIFUL SILK WORM POO-MADE BODIES

ALGAE PONDS - BIO-RESEARCH

[ivory shore]

Why are you guys typing in here

[candid crystal]

LETS AIM FOR 50% NEXT UPDATE

[ivory shore]

You should be running

[candid crystal]

Working man I support the runners with my VOICE

[ivory shore]

I’m at work

[hasty edge]

loading

[flat star]

it's more that we see people just do other terminals and maybe they didn't hit the one we're focusing this round, so rate goes down as we lose runners. but the rate has stayed the same before, so it isn't exactly resetting to 0

[digital gate]

Terminal campers would camp the working toilets in a zombie apocalypse

[tidal sundial]

• message sent with autodictate while running

[whole bridge]

I think is threshold-based decay.

Pulling an arbitrary made up number - at 1000 runs, stays the same. 800 -2%, 900-1% - 1100 + 1%, 1200 2%

[autumn flint]

Why cant my team activate the terminals on dire marsh, is there a step we need to do to get caught up?

[agile bluff]

Nope - should be able to

[autumn flint]

hmmmm wierd

[sacred plover]

I am back from work its time for terminals

[flat star]

there's an order to go, and there isn't an activation. You just walk up to the first one, it starts to show a map, second one, voiceline

[nova bluff]

just make sure right order, algae to bio

[safe karma]

well maybe not to zero, but surely we arent like stagnating around 48 just because suddenly everyone stopped doing the run, its more likely that that's the maximum we've managed to reach based off everyone whose currently doing the runs

[final leaf]

this doesn't track with yesterday though, we had huge jumps in numbers just later in the night, before we had 2 streamers coordinating their communities to focus on terminals

[nova bluff]

i had to hit interact

[agile bluff]

IF YOU'RE TYPING CAUSE YOU'RE LOADING. BUY A NEW COMPUTER. IF THE QUEUE ISN'T POPPING, BUY ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY THE GAME TO GET MORE PLAYERS.

ALGAE PONDS -> BIO RESEARCH

[autumn flint]

ohhh we are on termainal 3 gotcha

[gray idol]

Board the Marathon...
Just did all 3

[flat star]

Yeah I'm just saying I don't think it's helpful to say that something is happening for sure when we don't really know.

[whole bridge]

Without real data on number of people & successful runs, it's all just a guess based on that output

[broken light]

bro ive been running a bunch, i reccomend destroyer, you can get around the map pretty fast, most of the time you dont even run into people if your quick enough

[polar nacelle]

goat

[flat star]

the huge jumps started to happen with the streamers. Went from like 40 something to 72 in a single reset period

[safe karma]

yeah at the end of the day pushing it will get it done

[lilac turret]

What do the UESC kills have to do with this arg if anyone knows?

[flat star]

exactly, just gotta push at a time we have the most people available

[flat star]

nothing as of yet

[whole bridge]

Lost of Algae campers in the last hour

The kill opportunists are out

[flat star]

Algae just a popular spot for loot and pvp

[toxic igloo]

Did one run 👍

Touched it twice

[agile bluff]

THERE'S A LOT OF CHATTER AND NOT A LOT OF RUNNING. SHED YOUR EARTHLY DESIRE AND GET TO RUNNING SILKY

ALGAE PONDS TERMINAL -> BIO-RESEARCH TERMINAL

[formal cosmos]

blowing chunks o piss outta my ass.

[toxic igloo]

Just to confirm - I don't need to interact with the terminal, right?

[flat star]

i... what

what the hell

[fossil spoke]

Nope just approach

[gray idol]

During my runs, I'm pretty sure some people where camping, so run like you stole your shell

[dense schooner]

Excuse me, what the fuck?

[toxic igloo]

Cool

[fossil spoke]

No button input

[toxic igloo]

Then I did 2 runs

[candid crystal]

U will hear a beep when u get close

[toxic igloo]

Yep

[nova bluff]

as long as it makes the "tink" sound and at the second you hear the voice line

[gilded drift]

just walk up to it

[formal cosmos]

i am ascended

[fossil spoke]

You will hear a voice line on the second terminal

[agile bluff]

You dropped this - 👑

[flat star]

if it's the same two terminals it only works once

[fringe ore]

j finished my 4th this cycle

[candid crystal]

No you are a wizard

[whole bridge]

nice

My best is 2 lol

[toxic igloo]

No?

[flat star]

no what? like if you're in a single run, you can't do the same two terminals twice in that run

[pulsar ocean]

^^

[toxic igloo]

Then someone else did it at the same time as me lol

[agile bluff]

I HEAR THAT IF YOU DON'T TERMINAL TOUCH ALGAE PONDS AND THEN TOUCH TERMINALS AT BIO-RESEARCH, THE NEXT TIME YOU LOAD IN YOU'LL HEAR

"Hey, you, you're finally awake"

[agile ravine]

2 more done

[flat star]

the voice line doesn't activate twice

[rapid hearth]

1 minute

[whole bridge]

The donk does tho

[flat star]

wut

[agile ravine]

The DONK

[flat star]

now I'm just imagining the CS pro

[whole bridge]

If you run as a team all 3 players get independent 'donk' confirmations approaching the terminal

[agile bluff]

6 SECONDS FOR REFRESH

[flat star]

OH yeah the terminals are client based it seems for that

so for trios each player can get one activation

[pulsar ocean]

Hey did we confirm whether you have to activate the terminal before or during the refresh period?

[autumn trail]

during

[flat star]

don't know if it even matters. But we tend to say hold during refresh

[agile ravine]

We need an ARG roles, just saying

[fringe pike]

good good, we are doing good

[whole bridge]

But voice line only runs once - so with hint that voice lines count unsure if trios get 1 'point' or 3

[agile bluff]

As far as we know - it's the whole 15 minute period, the bot said "whole time counts"

[fringe pike]

Keep up the pressure

[agile bluff]

AHHHHH

[dawn sun]

From some of the really early testing we did, the 1 minute window seemed to be a dead zone

[agile bluff]

52% HUGE

[sinful compass]

Hey ya!

[flat star]

FIFTY 2

[pulsar ocean]

That’s what I thought

[raven cobalt]

Lets see how many we have running

[final leaf]

Right, but everything we have is a guess based on that output. Put together the data we do know and make an assumption there.

• Prior to alrge-streamer co-ordinated runs, we stagnated at certain values based off of this community doing the majority of runs
• Once big streamers got involved and made a push, we saw huge gains in numbers
• After we finished out index and began to truly focus one terminal at a time as a group (here and streamers doing the same tasks) we finished them out quickly

The key thing to note is that without an influx of runners from other communities we stagnate at certain values. The people active in this channel rotate, but its not a huge amount, likely not enough to get a full 100 checks just from us here. That means we can assume that either it fully resets to 0, or it just so happens to be some kind of scale or etc that sets it back exactly right to force us to hover around the same number for multiple 15-minute periods in a row. And that that scale/algorithmic adjustment just happens to reduce the percentage enough that this group alone can't do it, but with the streamer communities we were able to hit 100% in a few attempts.

I'm not saying it being a ratio is impossible, or even unlikely, just that a reset to 0 is more likely based on the data we do have.

And I've been doing runs between typing in to this lmao

DURANDAL IS RIGHT. YOU WILL SUFFER. AND WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE OF RUNNING ALGAE PONDS -> BIO-RESEARCH

[sullen axle]

im laughing my ass off im doing this with a friend and my wifi disconnected so he kept going with the terminals, i load back in, im dead cause i guess ticks were attacking me while i was disconnected, which is fine lol. But as he's walking along he sees a team LOOKING AWAY FROM HIM a good distance away off the path we take, and YELLS "PLEASE DONT SHOOT ME! IM DOING ARG STUFF!" he then got fucking shot in the head lmao

[rain bay]

you know this might be a selfish thing, it could still be this way but im hopin cryo is a personal unlock like this terminal stuff is just to unlock the way and then the player has to do some puzzle to get into marathon ship

[polar nacelle]

poor soul

[toxic wadi]

Whats the website for the % again

[candid crystal]

There is no poor soul only a soldier who died with completion of his mission

[flat star]

We know once the community unlocks it we get it

[agile bluff]

https://cryoarchive.systems/cargo

[ivory shore]

Guys do we get anything for contributing?

[final leaf]

its possible that you could complete a part of the puzzle and be able to go to cryo early, and there's a communal unloc date. I doubt it though, but it would be cool

[whole bridge]

You're right, there's quite a few possible, and some more likely than others. Just meant impossible to prove whether it's a fixed number with +/- that builds and declines or full reset each period as we can only log the output. I mean, it's possible, but you'd have to convince everyone to just stop for 16 minutes and see if it goes to 0 or drops some amount less. Nearly impossible to cooordinate that.

[agile bluff]

10 MINUTES TILL NEXT REFRESH - IT'S GOING TO BE A CHALLENGE. IT'S GOING TO BE HARD. BUT I BELIEVE YOU CAN DO IT.

[broken light]

you get a warm feeling in your heart

[rain bay]

yeah kinda bummed a lil on that, mostly cause i want to unlock upper complex and the algae ponds bunker more ;p was wanting that to be connected

WE SHALL GET THIS TERMINAL

[finite plaza]

ive done 2 runs already in 15

[sullen axle]

i think we gained a lil more progress too nice

[pulsar ocean]

Does the progress stop decaying at 50?

[candid crystal]

Amazing job soldier. Let's aim for 4 next update

Nope only 100

[raven cobalt]

Because we are with pretty low numbers. Isn't it smarter to join full teams solo and try to educate ppl and show them to do the run?

If we get enough that spark the interest we'll maybe manage faster. (Without big streamers)

[pulsar ocean]

Oh damn

[fringe pike]

evil ahh terminal

[pulsar ocean]

You should walk up to that terminal

For the cause

[keen bay]

ya run into atleast one shitty arachne player camping already

doing runs as rook is much easier in my experiencce

you load in late in the match, and teams are mostly dead or extracted

[candid crystal]

Earlier it dropped to 32 not a bad drop at all

[real geode]

[agile ravine]

[candid yacht]

[agile bluff]

REMEMBER WHEN IT WOULD DROP BACK TO 1% - PEPPERIDGE FARM REMEMBERS. THIS ISNT THAT TIME. ITS OUR TIME.

ALGAE PONDS - BIO

[plain tulip]

Algae ponds to bio research we have to just take that route?

[sinful compass]

DEATH IS RESOLUTION

[thick current]

I was referring to the camera progress

[crude kelp]

yes thats what it says

one route at a time

[candid crystal]

54%

[plain tulip]

Will be going back and forth soon

[barren ginkgo]

ohh! I’m on mobile n it won’t work for me lmao

[thick current]

Oh yikes still on algae bio

[tulip karma]

Hell yeahhh!!

[flat star]

took a while last night to get there but once we got the first they all fell to us soon after

[agile ravine]

Route 3

[candid crystal]

Gotta remember we keep going up guys !!

[thick current]

Okay, thats good, keep it up runners!

[candid crystal]

It may drop but the next update will be the highest we ever seen it!

[agile bluff]

AMERICANS ARE STARTING TO GET OFF WORK. WATCH THOSE NUMBERS CLIMB.

ALGAE PONDS - BIO-RESEARCH

[dusky quiver]

LOCKED IN

[magic leaf]

confirmed off work

[thick current]

I said it before but id be right beside (or behind) you all if i could be

[agile bluff]

Some of us still haven’t even had coffee yet 😂😂

[humble maple]

IM ALMOST HOME, WHAT DO I NEED TO DO

[drowsy sparrow]

New strat unlocked: bully people who kill you while running terminals for not doing the ARG.

SHAME THEM UNTIL THEY DO IT

[agile bluff]

I literally rolled out of bed

[plucky parcel]

I got one more hour till im off work

[craggy plinth]

do we know if you can do rook runs to progress it?

[agile ravine]

Yes

[plucky parcel]

Rook runs work

[rapid hearth]

I'm literally going to bed

[drowsy sparrow]

Affirmative

[thick current]

Run Algae ponds to Bio research for the terminals there

[agile ravine]

Rook runs are extremely efficient by pressing F

[vocal oasis]

How do I get a Cryo archive key?

[thick current]

Refer to this for the routes

[woven lintel]

worm is better than key

[agile bluff]

SHAME THE SILKIES FOR NOT TOUCHING TERMINALS. BUT THEN EDUCATE THEM ABOUT THE TERMINALS CAUSE THEY ALSO MAY NOT KNOW AND A HELPFUL RUNNER IS A HEROIC RUNNER

ALGAE PONDS - BIO-RESEARCH

[balmy gale]

can you leave run after getting 2nd terminal or do you need to die?

[mystic parrot]

finished my run convinced 2 ppl to not shoot

[mystic parrot]

you can extract or die afaik

[flat star]

can also die

[humble maple]

Do i do all 3 or just 3?

[vocal oasis]

How do I get a Cryo archive key?

[thick current]

Has the term killing been real bad

[agile bluff]

I’m going for like a vibe where I’m using Silkies both as a derogatory and a compliment, keep people on their toes 👌

[drowsy sparrow]

SHAME THE SILKIES FOR NOT TOUCHING TERMINALS. BUT THEN EDUCATE THEM ABOUT THE TERMINALS CAUSE THEY ALSO MAY NOT KNOW AND A HELPFUL RUNNER IS A HEROIC RUNNER

ALGAE PONDS - BIO-RESEARCH

[slate oracle]

I think the Wraith Warden drops them occasionally

[north crown]

Dying is the 1st step Kappa
Just exfil bro. 👍

[autumn trail]

[thick current]

Preferably 3 and repeat

[drowsy sparrow]

Jarro-ic 😉

[vocal oasis]

What's the terminals for then

[sacred plover]

[drowsy sparrow]

Me on the floor losing my 5th Rail gun today

[humble maple]

can i repeat on the same run or do i have to exfil?

[elfin bone]

more terminal camper pssies

[sullen axle]

GRAHHHHH MY BODY IS A MACHINE THAT TURNS TERMINALS INTO ACTIVATED TERMINALS

[slate oracle]

We don't yet know how the keys fit into everything. The terminals are for the cryoarchive website. Check out this doc for all the info

[brittle tulip]

Did we successfully get perimeter completed?

[plucky parcel]

No exfil needed

[shut meteor]

So, will we ever see our Twitch skins for Demolition or Longshot, or have they been lost to time

[ionic ivy]

Yes.

[autumn trail]

the map needs to be unlocked to use the keys on presumably

[agile bluff]

THE NEXT RUNNER YOU MEET COULD BE ONE OF TODAYS 10,000 TO LEARN ABOUT THE TERMINALS

GET US TO CRYO ARCHIVE SILKIES AND TOUCH ALGAE PONDS TERMINAL AND THEN DONK UP TO BIO-RESEARCH

[north crown]

Ahh, rampancy in its infancy sips tea

[crude kelp]

getting the map in the first place, we aint just getting it for free

[fossil spoke]

Home starting it up right meow

[vocal oasis]

Oh

[hallow cobalt]

is there a new map for dire marsh?

[lyric trail]

You you have to knife it or interact with it or just look at it?

[sacred plover]

once people are done eating dinner i assume we will clear these easily

[flint copper]

You don’t know that for sure lol

[sacred plover]

unless they upped required runners we clapped them last night like it was nothing

[hallow cobalt]

just walk up to it

[flint copper]

I feel as though its going to be a timed release

[agile bluff]

WE GOT BINGUS IN HERE. WITH THE POWER OF BINGUS WE CAN MAKE IT GO UP

ALGAE PONDS - BIO-RESEARCH

[sacred plover]

[thick current]

Exfil, die, doesnt matter as long as its a new run afaik

[sacred plover]

i have yet to see bingus in game 🙁

[agile bluff]

Don’t ruin the illusion shhh just get immersed in the fun

[tulip karma]

Very soon this American will contribute! Cyro archive or bust!

[wary notch]

I did one let’s goooo

[candid crystal]

WITH EACH SUCCESSFUL RUN BINGUS HAS A HIGHER CHANCE TO VISIT YOU

KEEP RUNNING

[agile bluff]

For D2 raid races content was locked behind the end of raids so even if the content was that day, it could be literally any time

[shut meteor]

How does one contribute to this cause?

[scarlet crane]

Are there terminals at both Algae AND bio-research?

[north crown]

[agile bluff]

Martin Freeman from Peter Jackson’s the Hobbit, he will touch terminals if you will

[north crown]

Nailed it on 3rd attempt without looking at a guide, just follow Algae > Bio, look around carefully, found both terminals pretty easily. 👍
