[copper totem]

We could explore any area that makes alarming sounds

Again though, grasping hard here 🤣

[fleet elm]

worth a shot, we have really no direction right now

[robust quarry]

we're all kinda grasping at this point tbh

[sly cradle]

Where are you seeing this by the way? I can't find the origin

[copper totem]

So can anyone list all the areas that can create or have sounds that can be described as alarming ?

[normal flame]

the DAC is only used to identify those who've entered the password, probably for some rewards

[clever tendon]

anyone able to link the site quick?

[fleet elm]

only thing I can think of is Hauler or alarm safes

[spiral anchor]

Kinda grasping at straws here too but I explored the INDEX location from the website

Which had this

All of these are space things

-------Arrivals-------

Rohini: Indian satellite launched between 1980-1983
Asterix: French satellite launched 1965
Ohsumi: Japanese sat 1970
Kosmos: The operational name for soviet satellites

Sputnik: launched by the Soviet Union on October 4, 1957, was the world’s first artificial satellite

-------Departures-------

Juno: NASA's space probe orbiting jupiter launched 2011
Vega: Now this gets tricky, Vega is the name for... a LOT of things in the astro field. It could be the **vega star system **(Found 1983) and a part of the **Lyra constellation **OR it could be The Vega (Vettore Europeo di Generazione Avanzata) a launch system built by europe started 1998/maiden flight 2012 OR OR it could be the russian 1986 Venus missions "The Vega Program" as its dubbed.
Safir: The Safir (Persian: سفیر, meaning "ambassador") was the first expendable launch vehicle the Iranian Space Agency made

[clever tendon]

thank you

[robust quarry]

complex, all of outpost pretty much, supply drops, secure caches, lockdowns

[digital gate]

I figured they were asking about the message in general

[unreal sedge]

We are blaming this guy?
https://bungie.fandom.com/wiki/Stosh

[robust quarry]

lockdowns unironically might be the best lead

[opaque kernel]

I remember seeing someone showcase a MIDA jacked lockdown on twitter

[digital gate]

Always blame stosh

Lockdowns are just a high risk high reward loot area, i doubt theres relation

Source_Format Serial... Serial numbers are unique, manufacturer-assigned identifiers
Do we know of any serial formats in the game?

[robust quarry]

im aware of that but they could still have a decent clue of some kind

[spare lichen]

https://klipy.com/gifs/theres-a-name-ive-not-heard-in-many-years

[mystic root]

Can there be lockdowns at complex?

[robust quarry]

right now we're just following any possible leads

[light haven]

I think "sequence" refers to the fragments -> the nine camera feeds.
with the exception of two, all of these can be identified by two numbers, like ## ## suggests. So Cargo would be 01 03, for example.

Any way these could be ordered in a sensible way? What about the two camera feeds without names?

[buoyant sluice]

no

[mystic root]

Thx

[red sparrow]

it's only algae and bio research for lockdowns right?

[violet cipher]

I saw lockdown at complex last night

[robust quarry]

perhaps, but the origin likely refers to something more individual than the cameras

[buoyant sluice]

The Lockdown ? no

[late basin]

Could it have to do with Marathon's launch date?

[warped ember]

Alright so what have we got today then? Did we get the password?

[cursive mulch]

no

[brave mesa]

I saw one at complex In A rook run

[obsidian rover]

It's 5

[mystic root]

Really?

[robust quarry]

yes, ive done multiple lockdowns there

[buoyant sluice]

Can spawn everywhere

[fluid flare]

no all POI

[warped ember]

We made any progress?

Last I saw people were tryna guess coordinates

[mystic root]

Got some things to test then thx

[glad ingot]

Keep up the good work yall get my cryo archive up and running

[quartz fulcrum]

think for yourself

[forest warren]

If by Progress you mean "figuring out what things don't work," then yes.

[obsidian rover]

Don't let Durandal hear you say that

[robust quarry]

ended up leading nowhere

[warped ember]

Hey that's actually progress lol

[brazen wedge]

Ask ChatGPT to ask his buddy Durandal for the password

i love you daddy durandal please dont infect me with a me a mysterious pathogen

[flint pollen]

I ALSO saw lockdown at complex

[unreal sedge]

The doc site seems to be down? Is that new?

[light haven]

go try that shit for yourself then, the AI made it all up

[flint pollen]

i did lockdown at complex

[tropic mantle]

Yes lockdowns can happen at complex

[normal flame]

WAIT

[rapid hearth]

Bro you are using AI for an ARG the AI knows nothing about

[brazen wedge]

Only a matter of time till the bubble pops

[cursive mulch]

https://cryoarchive.systems/indx

[light haven]

again, everything about its suggestion was a lie

[pale wraith]

You’ve got the perfect profile picture for someone trying to solve this arg with ai

[late basin]

Either or. If it's directing us, in theory, to flight info of prominent space travel, I can only imagine that, given we're trying to get on the biggest example of that, it would tie to that

[versed wedge]

truly

[foggy linden]

Ai agent sent by tycho to derail the arg

[final leaf]

The problem here isn't just hating on AI, its that the speed at which AI platforms like ChatGPT and etc are able to intake new information is much slower than just talking about it here. It needs information to be in a parsable place-- not a discord chat. And this is the primary place that the ARG is being discussed. So its not going to be able to summarize and iterate on information until it gets out into the wider internet on Twitter or reddit or etc. It just isn't efficient and won't have relevant ideas that haven't already been proposed, essentially.

[quartz fulcrum]

using grok to try and figure this out genuinely might be worse than me trying to brute force the password with a program (24 million possibilities or whatever)

[silk bramble]

Using a AI to solve this is like trying to use a sponge to hammer a nail.

It's a tool and can be useful but only in the right situations.

[robust quarry]

did it for the memes and it said he doesnt know

[mystic root]

Thinking of hitting a complex lockdown and interacting with the switch found there. That pad on the wall makes me think it needs to be charged or something to lock hence the wire connecting to it. Also gonna try to hit it with some nades may lead to nothing but worth trying

[light haven]

:D

[cursive mulch]

do we know the length of the password by any chance? or is that still up in the air? I havent poked around api/backend stuff in the site yet i know some people might have already

[neat gust]

❤️

[hollow plaza]

anyone using ai for this. straight to banned and skin them

[light haven]

we aint got SHIT

[vague willow]

what's the latest, are we still trying to find a password for /indx ?

[rapid ore]

Yeah

[forest warren]

God, AI bros are so annoying. And yeah, still on the Password.

[sharp lichen]

asking LLM to solve a riddle on a game about AI and how they fucked up is really something

the password is ben starr is a daddy

[versed wedge]

no I don't think so 🙂
I'll just use my brain

[agile bluff]

this is the one 👆

[unreal sedge]

Oddly enough 'durandal.ai' is a site clearly made by ai that has nothing to do with marathon

[normal flame]

people, check the feed with the names, I think we need to put the video feed sequences on the correct cameras, the video fragments we have are not belonging to the right cameras, for example the video saying biostock is camera 06, the video for cargo is camera 05

[light haven]

no worries and welcome to the server!

only good use for ai 🙏

[cinder frost]

super new to this, but can I still catch up to the DAC thingamajig?

[agile bluff]

on second thoughts though actually…

[robust quarry]

dude I have no issue with you using AI as a tool to help, but they're right, its not gonna be able to solve a cipher or find a password when even we don't know what the basis for those things are

[zenith cape]

Is there a chance password validation isn't active yet and it's currently a deadend?

[cinder frost]

just finished the personality quiz an shi

[agile bluff]

Absolutely!

[cursive mulch]

we're all at the same part essentially, you dont need to do any catch up

by the way, there is a change to index from early yesterdau/ When index first opened, there were 2 columns of the scrolling ENTRY_#### - ACCESS LOCKED. Now I see 3. Has anyone else noticed that change or am I just misremembering there being 2 columns in the beginning?

[elfin osprey]

Anyone have a good place to start for someone wanting to get caught up with the steps solved so far?

[agile bluff]

given we got a clue i’d be very surprised if it want accurate

[ornate orchid]

what about serial number on faction profiling?

[forest warren]

Is there a chance? Yeah, I guess. Will that stop the people tryinna crack the password? No.

[versed wedge]

can't even write a discord msg on your own

[rustic whale]

@Grok skin this man

[astral spoke]

alright, I just woke up from my 7hrs of sleep
where we at
last I checked we didnt have a password and practically no leads
where we at

[cinder frost]

but the contracts are still on yeah?

[hearty pasture]

wait how did we figure this out

[forest warren]

the bot sent it earlier today

[tropic mantle]

Its active just finding the password is proving very difficult

[hearty pasture]

like how did we figure out that its not the correct video / camera

[pale wraith]

Are you in middle school?

[robust quarry]

pretty much the same tbh

[final leaf]

where did it send it? I missed the OG message lol

[green minnow]

So, the "room" with the Marathon control thing, SHOULD BE in processing (FYI no such room obv)

[warped ember]

What was the clue?

[normal flame]

that's the thing, I think there's more of them jumbled and we need to order them?

[quartz fulcrum]

literally nobody is talking to you still please stop talking

[torpid hollow]

where though? I must have missed it

[tropic mantle]

Ai bros being pathetic 🫃

[forest warren]

They always are.

[sick crown]

i mean it kinda defeats the fucking purpose of solving a puzzle to use ai no?

[forest warren]

Was way earlier this morning I think

[agile bluff]

the info is moving so fast across so many different places that AI can’t keep up, give it a shot but the info won’t be usable 🙂

[vapid plume]

That's a sign outside of Biostock labeling it Biostock, 05 is inside Biostock

[kindred bone]

anyone figured out why some of the cams say "captured" and the others are "completed"?

[robust quarry]

the AI doesnt have the info needed to guess the password cuz we dont even have the info needed

[plush iris]

Biostock Infinite

[forest warren]

Yeah here, way back at 1am my time

[warped lagoon]

Yes please continue using the misinformation machine to get nonsense bs while destroying the planet on the side youre so smart actually 😍

[agile bluff]

yeah but how can you identify them without obvious signs

[astral spoke]

I found the exact location last night
no terminal at all

[digital gate]

I hate to be a broken record, but any feedback on my theory? 🤔

[rapid hearth]

Being an AI apologist in a chat about a game where AIs become rampant and commit slaughters is surely a choice

[polar knoll]

not really sure but went to bed last night and only two had the status but now 3 of them do

[late basin]

re: this, is it possible it's one of the many strings of numbers that showed in the intro when talking about marathon's signal getting lost?

[silk bramble]

You missed the point entirely and only read what you wanted to read. Literally everyone is saying AI as a tool is FINE. But in this very specific situation, AI isn't gonna be able to randomly solve this password with no real information to go off.

AI can only imitate intelligence, it has to have SOMETHING to go off first, and there was no info about how it could possibly find the solution here.

[normal flame]

most of them have writing in them, like cargo feed says "LOAD"

[clear pier]

Have we found the password yet?

[tropic mantle]

It most likely has to do something with the UESC kill count tied to the areas or “Big timegate”

[torpid hollow]

thanks!

In one of the feeds from the perimeter terminals there is something that looks like a serial code when it turns fully to the left, would that be relevant?

[median oxide]

Guy who thinks AI actually has some kind of intelligence

[white pawn]

if you are still able to run terminals, do we think that we still have more to do there? like a certain order they have to be done in?

If your takeaway from Marathon is "AI rampancy is when it goes insane and kills people and thats why AI are bad" then you need to play the games again

[green minnow]

ye sucks, woulda been cool

[zenith cape]

Had anyone found any consistency to the letter "replacements" in the password field? Like a cipher reference? If you put the same letter, delete it, then put the same letter again, it just puts a different symbol

id have to look into it, but durandal usually speaks in a poetic rythm and uses flowery language as part of that so it prob doesnt mean much

Mate you're being so unbelievably obtuse and making up talking points no one is arguing about. Just give it a rest lol

[agile bluff]

Fair - See if you can come up with a theoritical correct order!

you should ask chatgpt to read the message for you cause you couldnt apparently

I build Data Sets for LLMs and and work with Data Scientists to create custom LLMs for my job. I'm telling you it isn't the tool for the job to actually solve this puzzle. It would need to be a more agentic solution that is keyed in to this discord chat for it to have relevance to this puzzle in anything close to real time/with accuracy to any discoveries potentially made. Not freaking out over mention of AI, telling you to not apply AI to every problem. You have a hammer, and you're using it to try and tighten bolts, screw in a screw, cut plywood, etc. Just use it for nails. This isn't a nail.

Serial number of some kind in the feed from the data wall terminal, I don’t know if it’s relevant or not

[quartz fulcrum]

Community manifest has a link to the drive i think

[meager zealot]

lost some of your messages but I'm trying to "order" the thing but it lead to camera06 wich is unavailable, my logic is starting from 1 and then following the same "camera name" in grey and the number above it, might lead to nothing but I have nothing else to do

[tropic mantle]

I think the hashtags are just a password obscurer like * * * * *the sequence origin is larger than 4 digits

[kindred bone]

hmm, thats interesting. maybe we have to "complete" them all for the password or a clue for it. If the other guy is right and its actually tied to the UESC kills, each cam has its location so I guess we need to kill more UESC at the "captured" locations

[hasty fog]

Has anyone looked into national satellite designations? If we're looking for 2-4 character inputs like (## ##), these satellites are often categorized by their country using codes like this. For example, the Rohini series is designated as "RS", with each satellite being RS-1, RS-2, etc. For Astérix, there was only one so it has the designation "A1". Not all of them have these designations, such as Ohsumi, but might be worth looking into. They also all have NORAD and international (COSPAR) designations that you can view here: https://www.n2yo.com/satellite/?s=11899

[fluid estuary]

its already over but it was watching marathon streamers and claiming it on twitch

[runic topaz]

Dead game

[robust quarry]

they paced out in groups of 3 that feel kinda like stanzas and if you read them aloud they flow kinda like a poem

[alpine torrent]

ahhh I see

[final leaf]

serves went down for maintenance. not the place to ask, try gen char ot new noise pls

[agile bluff]

especially not exclusive ones

[candid birch]

nothing on the password yet family?

[white pawn]

people gaslit me last night saying they were still on, unless they got turned off on update?

[wet garden]

im not sure if its still there, it was there when the game released

[void saffron]

Greetings fellow crackheads

[robust quarry]

idk maybe im overanalyzing it lol

[brittle grail]

Ok thanks

[raw orchid]

it’s over guys let’s pack it up

[cursive mulch]

i like this one a lot (whenever it goes live)

[hearty pasture]

for brute force as well

[raw orchid]

mmmmmmmm

[late basin]

I got 91 19 or 19 91 from the Breach protocol image

[agile bluff]

maintenance about 6 hours ago they got turned off

[spice drum]

went away for a bit, still nada?

[rotund pine]

Did anyone else get the video feed videos that includes the audio? I saved them thinking there might be steganography hidden within but so far have found nothing.

[cursive mulch]

and the battle pass one mmmmmmm i love the blobs so much

[spiral anchor]

Maybe?

[green minnow]

Anyone got any of those ?

[normal flame]

is the video from camera 9 also the only one that has sound?

[obsidian rover]

Damn, u rite, uninstalling now

[final leaf]

so

[spice drum]

they have been checked already

[robust quarry]

OK lets get back to actually trying to decipher the password lol

[waxen nebula]

are you able to extract the banners out of the game or are those screen shots?

[neon belfry]

Have you guys tried using your game account passwords after uploading your DAC?

[neat crown]

have you tried 21 R2

[agile bluff]

Has anyone tired Deadgame for the password

[white pawn]

ah okay, at least that takes more fucking around with terminals off the list LOL

[runic topaz]

Congratulations! You escaped

[rotund pine]

All of them have sound

[west latch]

WHERE ARE YOU INPUTTING THE PASSWORDS

[digital gate]

nah I get ya, that was just my way of saying I saw it and couldn't think of anything to say

[runic topaz]

Yoooooooo

[final leaf]

the breach protocol banner DOES reference MIDA

[spice drum]

https://cryoarchive.systems/indx

[west latch]

THANK YOU

[agile bluff]

the rest are just really quiet

[spice drum]

upload your DAC from the bot

[spiral anchor]

Ok you're funny whomever you are

[toxic igloo]

So what are we doing now?

[final leaf]

there is a hidden/special MIDA lockdown even on outpost... I wonder if you acn find the password during that evemt?

[raw orchid]

god id cry if this was what worked

[cursive mulch]

from fanmade file archive site (nothing relevant to arg)

[hasty fog]

which image is that?

[agile bluff]

priority contract

[robust quarry]

i have 2

[mortal pine]

where

[waxen nebula]

can i get a link please?

[unreal cliff]

do we think these numbers mean anything?

[quartz fulcrum]

I did try this it doesnt work

[cursive mulch]

sure

[green minnow]

dang it

[forest warren]

I think people chased that lead for a bit, and it came up a Dead End

[neon belfry]

🥰

[normal flame]

yeah, I haven't found a valid DAC for that one

[white pawn]

the amount of times i’ve seen this makes me wanna run a full loadout into outpost and die in two minutes

[agile bluff]

No one’s sure - maybe maybe not, best guess no, haven’t been able to turn it into anything

[torpid wyvern]

how do i get my dac?

[wary kayak]

has anyone tried their discord password?

[robust quarry]

the 2 i have dont have any clues

[slim depot]

so business as usual

[unreal cliff]

alright alright sry I just started looking into this. lol

[raw orchid]

has anyone chased the dorms lead at all? i remember hearing some whispers about something to do with dorms on outpost yesterday

[spice drum]

#leaderboard

[hasty fog]

oh interesting, how did you get those numbers? i think i missed this

[green minnow]

That's why I wanted to see if there was anything on the others

[torpid hollow]

damn this doesn’t work on mobile? I’m at work lol

[rustic whale]

First thing i tried last night haha

[wary kayak]

has anyone tried their grandma's yahoo password?

[brazen kestrel]

does anyone have the glitch timestamps written down somewhere from the captures?

[final leaf]

turn your phone sideways

[spice drum]

open in desktop mode on phone maybe?

[rotund pine]

Is there a reddit thread or forum where people are working on the ARG? Hard to follow in this Discord

[late basin]

I'm a graphic editor. I'm just messing with the slices/values/rotations. A lot of the noise are Xs or crosshairs, but 9 and 1 are the only real numbers I can see.

[agile bluff]

IIRC some people ran it but nothing - it was based off the “home” line

[robust quarry]

this is that place

[jaunty ravine]

while the 02 is just for the index section itself the numbers in hexadecimal that would fit the format are not the passwort

[hushed gorge]

What if the numbers are supposed to be used with the little poem or w/e we got from Durandal

[neat gust]

https://klipy.com/gifs/knock-knock-it-over

[vague crow]

r/marathonsecrets

[raw orchid]

gotttchaa im remembering how

now*

[quartz fulcrum]

Im seeing numbers 👀

[late basin]

MAYBE a 6 if we don't count it interverting the one on the side

[agile bluff]

Man i’m on fire 😂

[neon belfry]

I’m going to say part of this next part also has to be tied to something in the game. Think we should look for new things/events in game and go from there.

[obsidian rover]

Have you considered trying the numbers on your Credit Card and the 3 digits on the back? 🤔

[jaunty ravine]

would be interesting to check if there are any boxes ingame that are marked with these numbers

[cursive mulch]

i do think that's a little more important than we're considering but who knows

[cursive mulch]

agreed

[hasty fog]

oh ok that makes sense. do you know where the image came from for context?

[torpid wyvern]

maybe the real DSC was the marathon arg all along

[frosty oar]

Could this be anything?

[agile bluff]

☝️ Definitely worth a shot!

Just remember the clue from Null Bot implies we have all the pieces, but I don’t know

[mystic root]

the new event on dire marsh that had a white cube with no real purpose yet if that helps

[viscid lily]

We still on password?

[white pawn]

i don’t think it’s a new event. my idea is the numbers on the password screen are a cypher for something in the game that bungie came up with themselves

[cursive mulch]

old step

[late basin]

@hasty fog

[zealous falcon]

which numbers? ur gonna have to post them i dont quite understand

[charred herald]

password was password

[proper furnace]

Who redacting google doc file? need to say something . I think I find a clue

[vivid bobcat]

we are the password

[rustic whale]

was the IP to the webpage

[neat crown]

what was the clue for index again?

[hushed gorge]

I mean if they turned off the terminals it means we have everything we need

[wary kayak]

wait...WAIT

Has anyone asked bungie for the password?

[robust quarry]

The security briefs talk about AI rampancy

[torpid wyvern]

is uploading the dac supposed to do anything? it just save invalid dac

[hasty fog]

ah gotcha thanks

[prime stratus]

one thing i find interesting is that throughout all the terminal lines he references knowing the next step or trying to understand the next step, and questioning ones purpose/actions. We know what the first step is, its "death" the tagline of the game. Have we ever had anything tell us what the next step is?

[rustic whale]

Some @ the dev team

[hushed gorge]

It has to do with the video cam and what we already have

[agile bluff]

What’s up?

[quartz fulcrum]

With the new update being dropped; it might be possible something new has appeared in game somewhere??? Has anyone been looking around ingame?

[hearty pasture]

@devs wake up

[keen bay]

any new hints come out on the password?

[sharp willow]

Clearly the password is Mortal Kombat 2

[charred herald]

copilot said the password is marathon 2988

[cursive mulch]

Password123

[late basin]

I need help. I think the slices on the Breach Protocol image can be readjusted to be in alignment and spell something out, but I'm one man and this will take a while

[robust quarry]

been scouring Outpost, nobody found anything yet

[final leaf]

do we think the password is 4 digits or do we think that's a hash/key for a cipher?

[agile bluff]

Thanks CoPilot go become rampant 👌

[cursive mulch]

i do not believe the breach protocol is anything important

[drowsy halo]

Yo where are yall checking the password thing at

[robust quarry]

the 4 digits are the location or origin system of the password

[wary kayak]

which slices?

[bold iris]

It would have been brute forced by now if that was the case

[raw orchid]

this is what im thinking
have a sneaky suspicion it has something to do with Darius maybe

[hearty pasture]

ai is not gonna be useful here

[quartz fulcrum]

guys copilot gpt told me we have to fly to Tau Ceti to find the password

[charred herald]

jokes

[drowsy halo]

Is it on the cryo archive website bc it’s just showing me the cams

[viscid lily]

Wait i thought it was 7 charachter password?

[quartz fulcrum]

“## ##”

[cursive mulch]

the breach protocol profile background is a reference to last april's ARG, NOT RELEVANT TO THE CURRENT ARG!!!

[obsidian rover]

Well you'll need my ID too to go with it, here you go

I hesitate to say this, but that's actually a task that would be applicable for AI use. Not saying to do it, but that work can be done pretty quickly by ai I'm pretty sure

[robust quarry]

We have literally zero Idea how many characters the password is

[pastel harbor]

Merci

[hearty pasture]

i dont think its referrencing how long the password is

[warped lagoon]

the fourth chairman knows ball??

[normal flame]

I thin the sequence order is related to the order of the camera numbers

[cursive mulch]

me neither i think it's just the beginning of password

[late basin]

we're in a chat called breach protocol and the hint talks about a translation layer application. i don't think it's that out there

[charred herald]

is there a rate limit on requests? if this is the format just send the 10k combinations it could be lol

[hearty pasture]

Its referrencing what camera order is correct

[pastel harbor]

I read fourth horseman

I’m too chainsawman pilled

[torpid wyvern]

it in fact does not

[signal frost]

Ay everyone, the internet has been pretty shit towards this game.. the doomposting is making me worry a bit.. I love this game, feels good, looks good and sounds orgasmic, but I'm now afraid sony will pull the plug or something... Any words to cheer up a fellow runner? :c

[cursive mulch]

its called breach protocol because of last april's arg lol

[spiral gull]

play what youi enjoy and no one can take your happiness

Fuck the haters fuck the UESC MIDA for life run them pockets

[glass patrol]

Its odd to me we have [6] Preservation and Camera06...

[hearty pasture]

^

[robust quarry]

yes there is a rate limit and that format isn't the password format

[signal frost]

thats a good one ngl

[fast valve]

theres a sick ass arg thats part of the game and this is the chat for it so help us figure it out 🗣️

[shy hull]

It’s a new channel tho, we use to be in “new noise”

[tardy rapids]

Any progress from this morning on the hint fellas

[quartz fulcrum]

I had a code running 1-99 in each slot. Nothing worked. To add letters/symbols would make it take ages to brute force

[torpid hollow]

:/

[raw orchid]

if it makes you feel any better the fact that the fans of this game are REALLLY really liking it proves there will be at least A player base after a while

[robust quarry]

preservation is Vault 6

They pulled a plug on a game in the past that had like 700 players at launch and it was an absolute trash game that looked exactly like other ones in its genre. Marathon is not even in the same galaxy as that one… relax it’s not going anywhere

do we have a hint on what the sequence is?

[charred herald]

just numbers would be 10k possibilities numbers or letters would be 1.7mill possibilities

The password is definitely going to be found by doing shit in game. Go in the game and figure out what needs to be done.

[astral elk]

Anyone got any luck

[green minnow]

I'm checking AI Uplink or stuff in the codex but, I didn't find all the shit

[hearty pasture]

none so far

[quaint sparrow]

Anyone notice the "A C" in the recent marathon story post? I noticed some mildly hidden letters in ascii type font, but this recent one those 2 letters stand out

[final leaf]

in reference to my last message, its the smaller A after you click on the little rectangle. I had to zoom all the way out.

[astral elk]

Tryna figure out wtf a superdac is rn

[normal flame]

@agile bluff so...I changed my theory a bit...could we be needing to create a sequence of camera numbers as we move through the facility? The landing image you can sort of discern INDEX above the door being guarded, so we'd sort of have to follow the route through the cameras?

[proper furnace]

@agile bluff read DM plz

[hearty pasture]

one thing i dont get

[forest warren]

stg if the password is just on the door itself

[hearty pasture]

why is camera 09 the only one which says " completed "

[signal frost]

hell yea brother!

[wary kayak]

3 say completed for me

[brazen wedge]

anything in the patch notes?

[final leaf]

the numbers here match the font of some of the shipping containers you can find in world. has anyone found the shipping containers and tried the numbers that are on the other sides?

[glad stratus]

Apple moment

[forest warren]

There's a couple that say Captured, I think, yeah?

[mortal pine]

are all of the terminals off across all maps now?

[agile bluff]

That’s not bad 👌

[surreal shale]

I spent too much of my life staring at the ticker showing ENTRY_XXXX - ACCESS LOCKED looking for a missing one. Have not found anything and now I need to find eye drops

[agile bluff]

👍

[hearty pasture]

these are all the completed ones for me

hold.

[wary kayak]

wait...could this be something? the discrepancy in ones that say completed

[cursive mulch]

i wanna say yes

[wary kayak]

for different people

[hearty pasture]

3 6 9

[drowsy halo]

Ok not a bad plan

[obsidian rover]

Mobile chrome on android doesn't like the site either

[terse sedge]

lol I did this yesterday too, was pain

[hearty pasture]

which terminals corresponded to those cameras

do we remember?

[final leaf]

Sorry, I mean the numbers in the background of index match the font for shipping containers in world. Has anyone found the same shipping containers in world and seen if other numbers are present on them? I looked around some on perimeter yesterday but didn't doa thorough search.

[cursive mulch]

i think 369 is everyone

[vale carbon]

The completed ones are the ones from Outpost, right? The other 6 could all be captured, but it went directly onto the next step without letting us do the capture process iirc

or at least it's not letting me attempt the capture now

[torpid hollow]

zooming out that way worked, thanks man

[cursive mulch]

i dont but regardless if they're not active I don't think they're relevant rn

[mossy compass]

my camera feeds read the same

[final leaf]

of course!

[unreal sedge]

If you use chrome to listen to the page it says all entries are locked from 0001 to 1036

[hearty pasture]

im gonna run over to peri and try overflow to nr to see if they're locked

[obsidian rover]

if you are talking about the numbers in the password background image, I guess people think it is a location on the new map so not possible to check that room

[old granite]

Why is there a Cyberpunk 2077 minigame as a channel name?

[hearty pasture]

if they arent, can we somehow backtrack and figure out which terminal path corresponded to those and get the voicelines given in them lined up?

[cobalt flame]

What'd I miss over the last 12 hours?

[drowsy halo]

Wait I have a really REALLY dumb idea

[quaint sparrow]

I think thats all in the doc

[drowsy halo]

I will report back momentarily

[cursive mulch]

kk, im pretty sure they're dead just from what a few people have been saying but yes let us know. If they arent I highly highly doubt they're relevant to this step, I dont think they'd rely on memory for a step

[oak venture]

Basically nothing

[mossy compass]

banging our heads against the wall to figure out the password :]

[green minnow]

Could this be anything ?
(anyone got the alphabet pls)

[brave lynx]

What does DAC stand for?

[regal heart]

people have been consistently losing more braincells as we have made zero progress even with a hint from NULL

[brazen wedge]

thats big

[final leaf]

I'm not saying the room itself. Each one of the shipping containers on the roof (assuming they are containers) have a 3 digit number on them. Around each map there are shipping containers with the same or a similar font, has anyone investigated if any of the containers in world have the same numbers and if there's anything on those containers? if that makes sense

[obsidian rover]

That says: "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine"

[cobalt flame]

What was the hint?

[mossy compass]

oh wait NULL hinted?

[wary kayak]

I checked south relay term in peri this morning , was not on

this hint isnt helpful ;-;

worst one out of all of them for sure

[tranquil ore]

okay so

[wary kayak]

how did you get this hint?

[tranquil ore]

serious thing

[warped ember]

Pretty sure this was just the bot catching up, it's not really a hint

[tranquil ore]

maybe this can help ?? https://youtu.be/lR1mFMh9PgY?t=90

[cursive mulch]

sequence origin: uh um

[torpid hollow]

can’t even react

[hearty pasture]

discord...?

[spice drum]

I thought I was looking at BlazBlue Entropy Effect for a second there

[tranquil ore]

I bought another copy of marathon

[robust quarry]

look into the codex entries i own, didnt find anything

[tranquil ore]

but I noticed in the intro cinematic

it talks about a passphrase

thoughts?

[cursive mulch]

tommmmmmm where are you tommmmm

[wary kayak]

no duh..did it dm you, did it put it in chat, did you have to type a command for it to return that...?

[warped ember]

Oh that's... Really interesting

[regal heart]

just showed up in this chat

[hearty pasture]

sent in here, no command no nothing

[celest ice]

it dm'd it here like 9 hours ago lol

[wild tapir]

Huh

[hearty pasture]

#breach-protocol message

[wary kayak]

gotcha, I was asleep as were a lot of people most liely

[south sky]

So we know it’s a sequence of letters or numbers (serial) and the location we can find that sequence is something with four letters or numbers divided by a space

[opal hatch]

whats been happening, saw that we got all of the cameras. is the doc updated?

[final leaf]

here's an example:

[cursive mulch]

where is tom when we need him ☹️

[tranquil ore]

if you scroll up a tiny bit to the intro cinematic, I timestamped in

[thorny lintel]

Hmmm the camera for Index says [D2] RUN_DIAG as in run diagnostics. MIDA are the very tech literate ones, maybe there's a clue somewhere with them?

[west locust]

So weres the site link since people here mentiond a fake link?

[hearty pasture]

we got all the cameras, docs updated yes

camera index changed to run diag, where if u upload ur dac you get access to "input password" we're stuck here now

[tranquil ore]

roughly 1:30 into the video, it gives a few sentences similar to the ARG

seems likely

[mossy compass]

the run_diag page didn't like my DAC :/

[robust quarry]

MIDA are also anarchists lol

[wild tapir]

The guy repping thraxus?

[mossy compass]

i showed you my DAC pls respond

[green minnow]

thx

Wish I could :tom: react

[wild tapir]

I feel there’s something there

[warped ember]

They also have a banner and emblem in game called breach protocol

[thorny lintel]

Yeah trying to sabotage uesc who want to cover it all up and are hiding smt

[wild tapir]

Also w the voice line

[kindred turtle]

we need to get in the mida mindset, 10% of the server has to go

[drowsy halo]

Idea did not work

[cursive mulch]

when we needed him most he vanished

[drowsy halo]

Wait I lied haven’t tried the other idea

[wary kayak]

for anyone who missed this - lets put focus on this

[forest warren]

Godspeed

[wild tapir]

God fuckin damn it I wanna play

[unreal sedge]

When you are inputting a password the symbols it uses to garble the input are the same as the ones at the bottom of the page in the ticker bar. What if what you type isn't important but that it matches one of those sets?

[robust quarry]

The sequence origin is not the password or related to it other than where it came from, it's a dead end unless we find out what the origin is

[timid ice]

I've tried every possible combination ordered by camera

[wild tapir]

Wanna explore outpost fully
There’s something there I’m sure

[tropic mantle]

damn

[rich night]

We are missing 2 numbers

[drowsy halo]

I had a similar idea to the cam order but something I realized is that each feed has both a number and a camera number so I tried ordering it like that

[cursive mulch]

i think i agree

[forest warren]

Nah, that's been tried a few times.

[slate thistle]

I posted them yesterday, but someone drew different symbols over them and told me not to just post everything I find. 😄

[lethal turret]

Damn we already got the password?

[drowsy halo]

For example biostock is labeled as 5 and is on cam 1, therefore I put 5 as the first number in the string

[forest warren]

No

[rich night]

What are the empty spots in the sequence?

[cursive mulch]

breach protocol is NOT relevant guys 😭 that was last arg

[warped ember]

Lol that's dumb

[obsidian rover]

­

[wary kayak]

‼️

[short patio]

I did some translating (installing the font and typing random letters with it). Assuming the square ISNT B, but a space and the hakkë-looking thing is an end. It gives a string of UX SVXW YTZ

[drowsy halo]

However cams 6 and 9 don’t have labels like the rest so I am at a lost as for where they would be

[ebon needle]

artefacts overlayed with the image is sadly not very helpful

[grand kernel]

Maybe it needs to be encoded somehow?

[late basin]

If we know the answer is ## ##, is it possible it's the missing Quadrants for the two in red that have their quadrants listed as ERROR?

[steel gyro]

Is this current?

[cursive mulch]

i think looking at the serial numbers in codex might be a good lead? but i think other people tried with no luck

[spiral gull]

wait, flip it both vertically and horizontally, i think i see something

[drowsy halo]

Nope other idea don’t work either

[hearty pasture]

all the serial numbers are the same

[foggy solstice]

i did notice that if yuo put the name of the ones that have labels you get a different background image, then if you put in random names. e.g. https://cryoarchive.systems/biostock

[spiral gull]

flip artifacts i mean, before overlaying it on the normal image

[hollow steppe]

If the other labels follow a pattern the missing labels could be the password if you figure out what should fit in the missing spots

[ebon needle]

I'll give it a poke

[cursive mulch]

yes they are lol thanks for the shout

[obsidian rover]

Bop it

[drowsy halo]

Wait you’re right there are 4 dead cams if we use the camera labels

[amber ermine]

maybe its the sum cost of all the expensive cars?

[hearty pasture]

..

[rich night]

Thats what I'm thinking

[sage sorrel]

NEW IDEA PEOPLE:
What if we go back to the teaser trailer, and watch every single teaser, trailer from Marathon. There might be some answers there. They have done it before in Destiny 2.

[cursive mulch]

i do quite like the codex pics 🥰 i <3 dither

[mossy void]

Purely inference, but I'd guess that Camera09 is [8], and Camera06 would be [9] IF they have any numbers that they're tied to. But that's based on Index being the only camera to use the same number as its camera number

[astral spoke]

yo I found this over in Complex
is this new i dont remember seeing this

[hollow steppe]

I've not been able to work on the arg shit because of work

[drowsy halo]

Couldn’t be if I’m using the theory that the camera number is the order

[raw orchid]

dither and displacement 2 of my 3 favorite d words

[obsidian rover]

New New Idea, What if we all go get all the achievements in the 3 Classic games on Steam

[obsidian rover]

is DAC the third?

[drowsy halo]

I envy the fact that you have a job icl I am a broke ass college student wasting my spring break lmao

[hearty ocean]

Could there be something wrong with the video file name?
02d34536-1155-41d2-9f05-9e7087a0fc7f

[tropic mantle]

it says sequence unresolved so it could possible be involving the cameras or area numbers but you are right that it could just be a dead end

[raw orchid]

so close! it’s disestablishmentarianism!

[robust quarry]

we know this answer ISNT ## ##

[zealous falcon]

this is cargo btw

[vast badger]

Did anyone try 023 820 320
It's shown several times in the intro cinematic.

Probably not it but

[wild tapir]

Exactly
We get the answer from ## ##

[hollow steppe]

I work at a uni and we get free tuition but i still havent enrolled in anything after almost 2 years

[drowsy halo]

No dice

[late basin]

gotcha

[amber ermine]

no luck

[pastel harbor]

are the cameras filming in game locations, cus i think it might be a good idea to try ot get to cam 6 and cam 9's location and see if anything's there

[obsidian rover]

Damn, I was only off by 21 letters

[safe helm]

looks like DAC file name

[vast badger]

Worth a shot

[cursive mulch]

true!

[amber ermine]

tried that aswell

[tropic mantle]

no, ther cams are all cryo archive locations

[normal flame]

nothing to do with filenames, those are just CDN UUIDs

[grand kernel]

What if the order of the camera feeds has something to do with it?
A.) they're out of order
B.) The grids aren't used correctly

[pastel harbor]

third is DEEZ NU-

[vast parcel]

theyre in cryo...

[short patio]

My brother in shell im in class at uni working on this 😭

[molten coral]

Is there any chance this is a location of some map?

[ebon needle]

flipped in every way and its not particularly clear

[vast badger]

"My brother in shell" 🤣

[normal flame]

this is the theory I'm working on right now

[pastel harbor]

ah right

[grand kernel]

## could refer to a row column designation, like A1, B2

[robust quarry]

tehy are in game, but theyre locations we cant go to yet

[drowsy halo]

Wait elaborate

I see what you’re saying

[zenith nest]

did someone try using the code in the deluxe edition skins

[hollow steppe]

What if you have to visit the locations and find pieces of the code then put them in correct order?

[mortal kite]

not a bad idea

[drowsy halo]

Where are you getting the column order

[rocky patio]

why does it only say "completed" on three cams on the cryo archive website?

[zenith nest]

^^^

[pastel harbor]

well top left grid is the same label as another camera

[simple rain]

we still doing the password?

[amber ermine]

is there no flashing numbers on the cameras if you watch it long enough?

[pastel harbor]

i see

[robust quarry]

the other grids are prob just dead or destroyed cams

[grand kernel]

I don't have it unfortunately, just speculating

[hearty pasture]

yes

[fierce flume]

Those r areas on the marathon

[drowsy halo]

Hella bad idea to lock an arg behind paid skins

[hearty pasture]

still on password

[fierce flume]

We can’t visit those locations

[grand kernel]

The placement seems a little deliberate though, no?

[normal flame]

you likely weren't here to capture the glitches before the index password entry was unlocked

[light haven]

uninspired try 0/10

[hollow steppe]

We can, thats outpost

[zenith nest]

i mean isnt bungie known to put some easter eggs in their deluxe editions like in destiny

[robust quarry]

it could, but at current the only concrete answer we have for the origin is TC IV

[rocky mica]

I mean one of the answers was in the collectors edition box

[robust quarry]

its def deliberate

[fierce flume]

The cameras on the website are all on the marathon ship

[hearty pasture]

?? which one was

[south sky]

D2 is index, if you go from left to right and down to up it works out

[amber ermine]

im trying 🙁

[obsidian rover]

It's clear as day, It says, Live, Laugh, SUBMIT TO DURANDAL

[rocky patio]

ah ok thx
yeah no I wasn't

[mortal kite]

yeah why do they keep switching to captured

[hearty pasture]

WAIT

WAIT

[ebon needle]

if anyone wants the alpha from the artefacts.png its here

[hearty pasture]

WHO SAID THE COLUMNS THING

THEY'RE ONTO SOMETHING

[grand kernel]

Yeah?

[hollow steppe]

My bad #3 looks like the interior of one of the outpost buildings

[hearty pasture]

index is D2

[drowsy halo]

What that mean

[tacit seal]

where is this from?

[wise jackal]

What’s the indx password I just woke up?

[pastel harbor]

yeah yeah i already got told

[warped ember]

What?

[gilded lake]

so i just got shelled in. do we know if there is a length yet?

[hearty pasture]

left to right, top to bottom

[light haven]

THE CAMERAS MASON WHAT DO THEY MEAN

[topaz idol]

I see we’ve made 0 progress since last night lol

[obsidian rover]

7

[rocky mica]

iirc the starting code to the unityispower website was on the box

[drowsy sparrow]

Which columns thing?

[mortal kite]

there were 5 that said completed yesterday and now they say captured

[vast parcel]

It is kinda strange how the cameras are set up as

Blank blank blank 5
Blank 1 6 4
6 3 7 2
Blank 9 blank blank

Why are they in this order??

[scarlet umbra]

What do I do if the indx page won’t let me input my DAC?

[empty copper]

not true @mortal quail spoke to us

[warped ember]

No no, I made a sandwich, that's progress

[unreal sedge]

I assume we've dug through the page source on the site?

[grand kernel]

So A B C D across/down, then use a 0-index, so 0, 1, 2, 3?

[molten coral]

I just saw on the loading it said 181 B91. hwat is this connection?

[crimson tiger]

Columns thing

[cunning flare]

It is sorting the columns in an array, left to right a b c d and top down 0 1 2 3

[ebon needle]

wrong tag my bad

[topaz idol]

Yeah but after that I’ve seen no progress. Unless it spoke again?

[pastel harbor]

this seems like more logical yeah

[silk bramble]

where is the previous message from him, and why are they never pinned!

[obsidian rover]

Indeed, it said "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine"

[cunning flare]

Sorta like a spreadsheet

[eager grail]

What would we use the rows and columns for?

[hearty pasture]

yes

[empty copper]

oh you were here for that. Yeah nothing else

[drowsy sparrow]

This thing?

[eager grail]

What’s this?

[white pawn]

can someone send me the numbers on the password screen i’m on my phone

[hearty pasture]

it links up

[violet cipher]

Could someone try shifting the artifacts png by the numbers on indx and layering it?

[drowsy halo]

Can you run this down for me I’m kinda a dumbass 😭

[obsidian rover]

Someone would have to have pin permission to pin important stuff @chrome marten

[drowsy sparrow]

That's what I was thinking

[grand kernel]

Ok, so if we go by location order it would be:

[empty copper]

We need to find serial numbers we can use as a cypher

[silk bramble]

Yeah i wish the discord mods would pin those important messages for people to keep track of.

[raw orchid]

these look like timestamps of some sort

[normal flame]

you search by "FROM: username" in discord too

[ebon needle]

unaltered artifacts.png is here, but it's just alpha gradients

[pastel harbor]

shifting?

[raw orchid]

hour:min:sec

[hollow steppe]

Try the numbers inside the cameras without feeds

[white pawn]

ty

[cursive mulch]

huge

[hearty pasture]

okay looking at the cameras, left to right, we have a b c d, then top to bottom, we have row 1 2 3 , index camera is located on D2 AND has D2 in its name

[violet cipher]

Slide the image across by that amount and see if it forms any characters

[faint portal]

There is a 124 in the middle of the top 2

[hard valve]

has anyone fed it into like

[grand kernel]

B1 D2 B2 D1 D0 A2 C2

[hard valve]

audacity or something

[drowsy sparrow]

We have a compilation of Google docs that track a much is different things including the NULL messages

[obsidian rover]

which numbers? there are 1200 numbers

[spice drum]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/preview?pru=AAABnP-_KxQ*ZulG7BfzSXaUt1gv_aCUrQ&tab=t.0

[safe helm]

Also there is one more 124 number on the top

[raw orchid]

this is a good point, lists of weird audio in those cams they could be hiding spectral analysis stuff in

[turbid raft]

whats the status on the password? anyone solve it yet?

[zenith nest]

^

[raw orchid]

lots**

[empty copper]

im confused. For me, its the UESC. I was looking at their serial numbers last night unprompted just because they were on the screen

[zenith nest]

are those not color IDs?

[drowsy halo]

Wait I see what you mean now

[cunning flare]

Problem is we need to know which 2 cameras

[cursive mulch]

02184073124

[hard valve]

I can feed stuff to audacity later today

[zenith nest]

are these color IDs at the end?

[neat crown]

what the date the timer is counting down to on the index screen

[robust quarry]

how would the way the grid is laid out change our understanding of what the password is?

[fierce flume]

Hey

Slow down real quick

[warped ember]

Anyone got a transcript of the voice lines that played when we accessed the terminals?

[wooden fog]

Mood

[fierce flume]

Someone maybe check this

[wet garden]

where is this from?

[obsidian rover]

It's ⭕

[lilac hollow]

as an array the cameras read:

Preservation - A2
Cargo - B1
Steerage - B2
Camera09 - B3
Camera06 - C1
Control - C2
Biostock - D0
Revival - D1
Index - D2

[fierce flume]

Go to the mechanic kit part

[zenith nest]

@wet garden

[mossy compass]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/preview?tab=t.0

[scarlet umbra]

If you go to cryoarchive.systems on mobile and the image scrambles, where UESC is there’s something else layered that looks like 4 letters or digits

[drowsy sparrow]

What's this(

[fierce flume]

Maybe a hint heresy

[silk bramble]

I've seen yeah, but realistically it's not huge ask for the mods to just pin the null messages right here in the channel where everyone is gathered trying to solve this stuff. It's great to have outside sources but everyone is here lol

[neat gust]

Where did bungie post this?
Bungie has released a hint related to this part:

//: TERMINAL ACCESS: GRANTED
//: FRAGMENT SET: 9/9 CONFIRMED
//: SEQUENCE: UNRESOLVED

source_format: serial
translation_layer: applied
SEQUENCE ORIGIN: ## ##

[wet garden]

ty

[empty copper]

4 #'s

[faint portal]

If you change the order based on the camera number it looks like a sequence of events

[rich night]

where is this from?

[quaint sparrow]

IG Story

[safe helm]

here 🙂

[zenith nest]

yeah but are those not color IDs?

[neat gust]

ahh ok ty ty

[grand kernel]

So I'm basing that purely on the location numbers, not the camera numbers

[vast parcel]

Wait upon closer inspection the cameras are numbered like this

. . . 1
. 3 6 5
7 8 4 2
. 9 . .

Got it wrong first time

[pastel harbor]

👌 sorry what’s the amount? I’ll try to do that

[raw orchid]

this goes in line with the time stamps idea on that terminal in game

[normal flame]

wait those are blocks, like layout blocks, that's useful

[robust quarry]

Why are we just throwing out the grid IDs with no explanation of what they potentially mean?

[grand kernel]

So starting with Cargo (B1) and ending at Control (C2)

[drowsy sparrow]

It's on a few different things around the map

[empty copper]

idk why would they even be there?

[raw orchid]

thissin

[rich night]

looks like time and quadrant

[south sky]

Now put them in number order and put the array in as the pw for that order

[drowsy sparrow]

The left certainly are time stamps

[cunning flare]

Yeah I know, which two cameras on the array that could maybe be the password, is what I meant

[grand kernel]

Trying some variations on that, no luck so far

[rancid warren]

We still doing the password?

[robust quarry]

wouldn't you start with A3?

[safe helm]

++

[raw orchid]

for #what tho
no idea where to even begin with that

[cunning flare]

Location wise

[grand kernel]

Oh gotcha gotcha. I didn't think the password had to be 4 characters

[slate drift]

wait youre right, for like have a second the runner is (i think) in cryo archive

[violet cipher]

Oh sorry I don’t have the image pulled up rn but from left to right on the index page where you enter the password. Could try to shift horizontally or vertically

[cursive mulch]

Preservation - A2
Cargo - B1
Steerage - B2
Camera09 - B3
Camera06 - C1
Control - C2
Biostock - D0
Revival - D1
Index - D2

738964152

[amber ermine]

also the ## ## would imply a space between the numbers but who uses a space in their password

[violet cipher]

^

[zenith nest]

each runner has a different code note @wet garden

[viral glade]

No clue if this matters but here's the camera layout

[brittle bolt]

to me the ## ## makes me think of hex code

[cursive mulch]

lol it does line up sooooo

[robust quarry]

Throwing out grid numbers with literally zero explanation for what you think they might mean is not helping

[drowsy halo]

Hold up let me try something

[ornate delta]

are we thinking the 4 sequence origin numbers are the password

[drowsy halo]

Oh wait no already tried this dead end

[fierce flume]

He is

[steel gyro]

There’s numbers on here

[robust quarry]

we know its def not the password

[fierce flume]

It mentions a frost debuff

[sage sorrel]

What about "DEATH IS THE FIRST STEP" ?

[fierce flume]

Then it glitches with a screen that says test

-2

[zenith nest]

^

@sage sorrel

[steel gyro]

It’s a serial so maybe only numbers and no letters

[cursive mulch]

||||ABCD
0|. . . 1
1|. 3 6 5
2|7 8 4 2
3|. 9 . .

[spiral gull]

It's an odd set of numbers. But 073 and 02 both appear in the actual image. Is it possible it's 7302?

[robust quarry]

Serial just means its in a specifc order

[cursive mulch]

idk if that makes sense lol hard to make a grid

[whole vigil]

What if the ARG reveals Destiny 3? lmfao

[cursive mulch]

let me bust out excel rq

[torpid hollow]

A0
A1
A3
B0
C0
C3
D3

All of those are ‘missing’

[drowsy halo]

Nope

[amber ermine]

i already tried typing d3 and destiny3 as a joke haha

[neat gust]

what if it isn't just 4 numbers or letters. What if ## ## means like some sort of Product/Shipping number? Maybe that's why the password background image has what looks like shipping containers?

[vague gyro]

Gamers

Any news?

[ornate delta]

why does everyone want them to reveal destiny 3 in marathon's arg like just let us have our game and put the copium down

[heady blaze]

it's 073 and O2 (as in oxygen)

[whole vigil]

I'm saying it just as a joke.

[grand kernel]

Here's it gridded out on the image

[robust quarry]

Can someone ACTUALLY EXPLAIN what we're trying to go for with the grid thing instead of just randomly posting

[neat gust]

What if its like UESC-2794 (placeholder numbers for now)

[steel gyro]

https://tenor.com/view/venom-gif-27487650

[south sky]

Destiny players are completely mindbroken, just ignore

[crimson tiger]

Why would one of the rows be 0 though?

[noble laurel]

Couldn't resist

[zenith nest]

is this background in outpost right

[keen bay]

because computers start counting from 0

[heady blaze]

beautiful

[mortal pine]

guys why haven't we figured this out yet - wtf am I paying you guys for

[final leaf]

I'm trying to find shipping containers with these numbers in game now, if someone else wants to look as well. I don't know all locations so I'm just searching each map for a few runs

[fierce flume]

No

[ornate delta]

peak

[obsidian rover]

https://tenor.com/view/the-office-glitch-matrix-gif-25245096

[south sky]

Wait

[zenith nest]

where is it

[slate drift]

most likely cryo archive
