Can this become the general theories channel after this investigation us done?

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:15 AM

#

eh, maybe

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

Ok what more have you found?

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

this channel is temporary until such a time as we think it should be permanent

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

Ok

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

and if things go nuclear, we can always pull the old WT channel out of the archive

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

Maybe after wards have a poll asking if it should become a theories channel and conspiracy stuff?

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:17 AM

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

Yup

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

ah makes sense

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

Good idea

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

always happens

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

Looked at the in game derelict for clues. Nothing

bright tendon Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

Good morning everyone! So.. i see this is getting serious.. Did we rule out the chance the glyphs is just gibberish?

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

I guess so

#

Yup

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

to some extent

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

Besides we having fun

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

we believe its not a word, but a cipher and/or a URL

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

since I got off work two hours ago, and love me a good ARG, I'm assuming the glyphs are a lead until proven otherwise

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

Perhaps

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

We've mostly ruled out the possibility of it being a word

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

Really?

#

I missed that part

#

It might be different languages

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

The only way it could be one is if we've majorly fucked up so far, but theres a good chance we have

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

All molded into 1

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

That seems to be a case

#

Cause the first and 9th symbols are more similar to a Pigpen I then a Greek G

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

Because it has both greek letters, elder furthark and maybe some hebrew

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

📎 image0.jpg

#

Just resending the image

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

Weve found alot of potential languages

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

granite sierra

limpid stag Jul 17, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

I don't think it has greek in it

thorn fjord Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

OK, I've just extracted every image from the video

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

Letter 1 looks greek

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

Greek, Cyrillic, Durvak Runes, Pigpen Cipher, Hebrew, and others are what weve gad so far

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

@thorn fjord dude awesome wirk

thorn fjord Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

like, every frame

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

First letter looks like galactic alphabet

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

LEtter 1 is more likely Pigpen

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

holy crap Codex that's dedication xD

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

It's not cyrilic

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

Yup

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

phoenician maybe?

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

First letter is almost certainly a Pigpen I

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

#

Maybe

#

It seems like the first letter is galactic alphabet

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:23 AM

https://crypto.interactive-maths.com/pigpen-cipher.html

Crypto Corner

Pigpen Cipher

The Pigpen (or Freemason) Cipher uses images from a table to represent each letter in the alphabet. It was used extensively by the Freemasons, and has many variants that appear in popular culture.

bright tendon Jul 17, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

I've been thinking if the glyphs are originated from series like Dark or Black Mirror (highly unlikely though right?). I mean i've been thinking since yesterday all possibilities. This is one of my wildest. Because the whole void thing reminded me of Dark. But yeah.. Just saying this in case someone find this useful

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

Put the letter I into there

thorn fjord Jul 17, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

I found a tool to do it, wasn't going to do it manually, heh

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

you get the first symbol

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:24 AM

👁️ WT Dat You? 👀

then I'll consolidate all we found last night

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

Ok

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

Oh wow

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

I've been informed by fellow mods that calling it WT might cause unnecessary hype, so I've been avoiding it lol

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

@turbid cobalt amazing!

limpid stag Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

What is WT?

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

@lyric karma yea probs avoid that

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

Haha, nah we know for sure that's hit on the head anyway right?

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

Try other letters

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

yea, I believe Anashel said at the conclusion of Waking Titan Season 2 that that was the end of their involvement with it

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:25 AM

#

theres a CHANCE that the <'s are pigpen U's, but its unlikely as << would be UU

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

Yeah 100%! Doesn't make it any less exciting though!! Hype. And puzzles

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

that's not to say that HG can't continue the lore there

chrome cradle Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

someone said there is a dot between the second <

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

but I'm always amped for a good puzzle and cryptic stuff c:

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

@chrome cradle There is? good to know

thorn fjord Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

pigpen uses dots alot

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

Hmmm

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

Of it's a pigpen cypher then the first one is I

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

don't take anything as fact until we have clearer imagery 😛

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

The second glyph could he 2 U's but that seems unlikely

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

Ok that's not it

chrome cradle Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

i dont think so either

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

If theres a dot in the second < then its IUY

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

Try numbers

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

Yea thought were on to something

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

I doubt its a Gamma symbol

icy torrent Jul 17, 2020, 8:27 AM

#

But is it this cipher? What about last symbol?

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

I mean, we're tearing apart single frames of a video, feel free to follow whatever feels like a lead @twin token c:

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

as the lines in gamma arent equal link

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

Yup

#

I am

#

Right now let's list down possible languages

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

I'll be right back

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

Im on the side of letters 1 and 9 are pigpen i's

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

Then its 2 I's

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

Is there a way we could get an !glyphs command that'd show the image of the glyphs?

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

as far as I'm aware, those are the only repeating characters, right?

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

Yes

#

@turbid cobalt good idea but that could be abused badly

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

@turbid cobalt I'd have to cook up an alias, and I don't even know if Gunter can see this channel

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

true

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

...only one way to find out though

#

!hypetrain

forest quail Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

Oooooo we have our own channel now!? Thanks @lyric karma

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

The hype train has wrecked

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:30 AM

#

Damn why I gotta be working! 😦 Got a meeting at 10 and then I can try to help, if its not solved by then 😅

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:30 AM

#

Now it's hype freighter

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:30 AM

#

Many are injured in the Hype train crash

#

Its a terrifying scene

#

And i'm to lazy to continue writing this fake news article about a hype train wreck

#

Letters 1 and 9 are the only repeating ones

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:31 AM

#

Glyph 2 (《)

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:31 AM

#

ok there are 2 main possibilitie and those are: 1. its just a joke and HG is testing us out and 2. that HG had put there something that nobody is suposed to see and its secret

twin token Jul 17, 2020, 8:31 AM

#

Is used as speech Mark's in some langauges

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:31 AM

I’m going to bed hopefully it’s solved by the time I wake up
@icy torrent probably not

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:32 AM

Has the update been Datamined for anything? Also can someone post the CEM image?

i heavily doubt its galactic alphabet

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:35 AM

@cedar smelt do you remember how to get Gunter to see commands in new channels? I'm totally drawing a blank on it

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:36 AM

ive used enough enchanting tables to know what galactic alpabet looks like

@lyric karma Haha ❤️ Does he have perms in here? I think he has his own rank right? Just need to make sure he has access to everything in here

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:37 AM

#

we are pretty sure its a mashup of languages

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:37 AM

yea I've set his perms so he can read and write messages but can't get him to fire a message in here xD

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:37 AM

#

Ew

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:37 AM

#

maybe I have to restart him

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:37 AM

that sounds... odd

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

Does he need manage messages to?

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:38 AM

icy torrent Jul 17, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

You will get them soon friend, at some point

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:38 AM

#

Loads of works using I as first and 9th letter, out of 10.
Most fitting one is probably something like Idealistic

chrome cradle Jul 17, 2020, 8:39 AM

doesnt ring any bell

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:39 AM

#

hmmm

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:39 AM

Actually Idealistic doesn't work cause that has three I's 🙃

okay thank god those still work

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:42 AM

@lyric karma You could try syncing this channels perms with the category. If that's set up right it should do the job, but that relies heavily on it being set up right haha

#

Interchain Internship Intervisit

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:43 AM

I know it's set right, but Gunter's a bit rogue compared to the other bots

#

Intervisit = Aliens coming. K I'll stop now lol

#

Can't be intervisit, repeated T

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:45 AM

we need a specific word, assuming the 1 and 9 symbols are "i", that has no other repeating characters

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 8:45 AM

ill try

Yeah there's a few of those... Interchain Internship

10 glyphs?

1 and 9 repeat

Assuming they are I's..

#

back

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

if that's the case, it's possible the repeated glyphs could be any vowel

turbid cobalt Jul 17, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

did we get the dum dum bot working?

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

as vowels most often repeat

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

But, it could be a completely random series of letters to create a bit.ly link or similar. Assuming that this is going to actually lead us anywhere...

In The Air makes sense - but it doesn't take us anywhere. Unless it really is just a tiny little puzzle for fun.
Otherwise we should expect it to take us somewhere like a website

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:51 AM

I actually REALLY like isentropic as an idea

chrome cradle Jul 17, 2020, 8:51 AM

isomorphic needs 2 repeating symbols

lyric karma Jul 17, 2020, 8:51 AM

because entropy is a great rabbit hole

the idea behind Desolation would be that it's warped to the point of LOOKING like glyphs

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 9:50 AM

Well I'd argue how is it supposed to be anything? It could just be artistic fuckery from someone in the trailer department who thought some random glyphs would look cool before writing "Desolation"

tbh i don't think they're meant to be glyphs at all. just heavy distortion artifacts from lossy signal until signal is boosted enough at end to deliver the message that this is...No Man's Sky: Desolation

unless you were, say, looking for secrets, you would never ever see these glyphs

HG know they have a fan base that latch on to the smallest detail like Charlie looking for pepe silvia. They've embedded codes in videos countless times before.
It'd be a dick move to say the least for them to just randomly embed a string of symbols for no reason.

cedar smelt Jul 17, 2020, 10:01 AM

Artists like to have fun though too - if you ever watch the title credits of a show like American Horror Story it's littered with crap you could spend months and months picking apart - but it's usually just the artists having fun haha

Have HG ever embedded something in a "HG" video? They've done a shit ton of stuff through Waking Titan - but none of that was ever No Mans Sky branded - it broke the fourth wall towards the end, but the two were always very seperate

#

HG themselves never specifically embedded any thing into any of their own material that I know of. Exception being 1 tweet from Sean which played into the ARG at the time

(Not saying they couldn't now, but I don't think "they've done before" is valid)

You might have answered your own question though. "Why go to the effort". Maybe they didn't go to any effort, and just picked out a few random symbols and that's why they don't correlate with Desolation - it's so hard to know lol

stuck onyx Jul 17, 2020, 10:49 AM

only thing i could think of without plainly using another alphabet is calculating the degrees of each letter individually and then calculate their position in the plaintext alphabet with modulo 16, but thats borderline esoteric

granite sierra Jul 17, 2020, 10:50 AM

If you can try that

#

I though of some other game

#

Maybe something with Joe danger

Yes it does

stuck onyx Jul 17, 2020, 10:51 AM

its nothing, you wouldnt even know how to add up the different degrees for certain letters, more of a fun thought

require them to prep one specific planet with extra stuff
I've said before that that's basically the only way they could really hide anything well, as it couldn't be found by looking through the files or anything.

#

And if not something like a portal address, what is it going to be? A 10 letter word... What good is that going to do us?

#

"Desolation" was the obvious conclusion, but the repeated symbol(s) don't fit that.

prepping a planet with extra assets would make little sense concerning screcy since dataminers would find said assets easily i think
