(it's a deinosuchus finally landing on earth after travelling from its home planet which was destroyed?) anyways I think it's a satellite falling into orbite
#isle-lore-theories
icy onyx
It could help radio towers send signals to one another bouncing off the satellite. .
tiny carbon
A satellite through the clouds? If it were falling into orbit we would see it drastically changing direction. Sattelites aren't slow and I've never seen it change positiins
tribal trench
the flare thing it gives could be solved with it having solar or glass, reflecting light
tiny carbon
Positions*
icy onyx
It probably is just the North Star.
tiny carbon
But then the question of it not being true north when the devs had to intentionally put it there when they could have instead put it where it belongs remains unanswered
How much does it shine through the clouds? Do the clouds block it at all? Just a tiny bit? A lot bit we can still see it?
I haven't gotten to look at it through clouds
fresh rivet
Could be a.... could be a... thing
lucid tusk
My bad for calling it the north star, it was one of the last things I added to that map, noticed it when I was close to finishing and just slapped it on there calling it the north star lol
fresh rivet
loooooooooooooooool
keen seal
I can’t always see the “North Star” through the clouds. It also only stays in the sky for an average of 10 minutes I think? Never counted. But it’s there for a while and then will literally blink out of existence before your eyes at around mid-night. Idk what it is, but it seems important.
pearl palm
@lucid tusk You didn't put the north star on there. I did that in ms paint.
That's without my edit
Oh wait, I see what you mean on the right hand side

I thought that since you were using that map you were talking about how it's said North star on here.
pearl palm
Yea I get it now
I think north star was something dondi mentioned in the past that he put on thenyaw
Not sure if thats what was said or not
cant remember all of it
stone crater
What information do we have on the secret messages in LoadScreen 01? So far, all the words I've found are cryptic and ambiguous: 'real', 'fake', 'dream', 'joke', 'impossible', 'perfect', 'seeking'. I just found these today and haven't seen anyone talking about them, but then again this loading screen isn't that recent, and it's possible I just missed the discussion. Either way, seeing those hidden words in that big old Apollo Engineering logo made my night! It feels like whoever put those in there was either attempting to tell us something without giving away too much, or deliberately trying to shake off theorists who tried to look too deeply into things...
ebon basalt
@stone crater we have all of the words in the Google doc that's pinned, along with other stuff.
They form fragmented phrases.
stone crater
Thank you!
slow delta
i like how people keep finding the older stuff over and over
i suppose the radio tower morses havent changed?
slow delta
anybody notice that the title screen has gotten considerably brighter
tribal trench
I believe It changes depending on time
slow delta
👀
viscid saddle
North star should definitely be north, it's just probable that the map isn't oriented with north corresponding to up
slow delta
oh
umbral tusk
Did you guys notice that in the loading screen, within the logo of AE, the word "forever" comes up?
I almost didn't see it tbh
ebon basalt
We have a pinned google doc that contains that as well as other things. https://docs.google.com/document/d/102ETakYa1vH0VHC9hs_i_kSuum9aVcuH0G4_CobBPr8/edit
umbral tusk
ah ok
icy onyx
...?
pearl palm
Do we have the morse code for the radio tower on thenyaw?
slow delta
ye
slow delta
its right above the v3 one
we didnt specify its thenyaw one cause it was the only one at the time
hazy adder
There is a very short hint of Morse Code in the launch-game-loading-screen of the game. Likely enough for one word possibly.
hazy adder
I believe it plays right before or during the little static effect before the main menu pops up.
main ice
Anyone else see that one random star on Thenyaw?
echo gazelle
same star on V3
umbral tusk
It’s the north star
slow delta
true
proper steppe
Magnatyrannus solus
Hyperendocrine Tyrannosaurus rex
Tissoplastic Tyrannosaurus rex
Neurotenic Tyrannosaurus rex
slow delta
but i guess magna being a refined hyper had more new dna implanted so its kind of a new species
proper steppe
Where are you getting that it's a refined hypo?
That just seems like the popular theory that everyone's taking as fact
icy onyx
I remember someone mentioning it, and Dondi responded, It was on the right track, I do not know if it was in this discord or the one that was deleted.
proper steppe
Are you talking about the long as hell theory that Dondi said was sorta right?
How in the fuck is that solid evidence?
icy onyx
Dont ask me.
proper steppe
Magnas aren't even as consistent with their changes as the strains are
they aren't named like strains either
They're a type, they're a different type of the same species, but I don't think they're a strain
icy onyx
What we know for sure it is the first attempt to create a Perfect Organism.
slow delta
well i think they are a different type of strain, one that doesnt focus on manipulating an existing dino but one that creates a hybrid organism
proper steppe
Then why are they a strain?
proper steppe
I think it works like this little venn diagram
Type:(Strain:(Hypo Tisso Neuro) Magna)
This way they're a type but not a strain
slow delta
could be
or the magna could belong to a type of hybrid dinos that doesnt have a name yet
slow delta
no no i meant a wider group
that could include the magnas
and other "possible hybrid types"
but probably not
since theres only type-m atm
here's something interesting
tissos have not been mentioned in the lore except for the reapers which came from the possibly outdated console stream
proper steppe
Tissos have been getting chenged from their original concept for, like, years
fresh rivet
I believe the strains are a way to force evolution as a test. The magna is the hard work and taking of of the best qualities they achieve and make a more successful and even better than strains organism over a long period of time. Therefore not being a strain, but a new animal, a new species. I don't make sense in my words but i hope you guys find it
icy onyx
I belive the strains were created for military uses,
The hypos failed at their test, tho they were incredibly strong their need of food was hard to work with.
The neuro was perfect for the military, it's EMP attack perfect.
The tisso kept failing with their tests and scientists gave up on them one day.
The magna, the compete version of the hypo, Capable of sustaining itself and being incredibly powerful.
tribal trench
??? where do you get tissos failing their tests and scientists giving up on them from???
icy onyx
Since Tisso was scrapped
tribal trench
its not scrapped
it's being reworked.
as in, its abilities and maybe appearance.
so.. 🤷
median hornet
I think the isle is the average "military tries to create a weapon out of something and fucks up so badly it wasn't worth trying again"
icy onyx
My Theory is that The Isle was a Dinosaur Park, But then was asked to create Dinosaurs for Military purposes, For Example the Hyper to be bullet Resist.
fresh rivet
and that's when shit hits the fan. After the oh so pretty dino park with hidden trials on new creatures started to get even more worked on their test subjects, their test subjects started to cause trouble and became killing machines, and therefore the military got their eyes on it. And then human trials happened, so we got the colossus, reaper and the matriarch
spice coyote
It's not a dinosaur theme park stop being basic
sinful wraith
I must admit if it was a dino park, it would have been one of the most basic plot of every dinosaur related plot
and I think Dondi is wiser than that
fresh rivet
touché
well, maybe they bred dinosaurs and could've sold them to a park? the ones not fitting for testing. It's pretty easy to think a dinosaur park would bring profit to fund their experiments, they didn't need the lesser assets, so why worry about them?
Anyways, if it's only for dino environment and new creature testing, that's alright as well. Which is the most likely scenario
sinful wraith
I think the plotline is more edgy than a park
and all we have so far doesn't lead us to a story like that
wicked belfry
Seems to me more like SCP crossed with JP. Perhaps done out of research purposes but things got out of hand, maybe military had to step in and in return for ensuring dinos don't cross to human-populated mainlands they had to breed specialty dinos for military purposes. The public wasn't meant to even be aware of them until the inevitability of them surfacing once the military deployed them. It would lead to some islands being abandoned after too many dinos got loose where just letting them thrive was easier and less expensive than wiping them out or trying to recapture them.
That's kinda what I'm getting from it.
astral cypress
Ok, I have a theory regarding the character screen (when you press Insert in the game). Not sure if this has been discussed yet or not, but it looks like the DNA helix on the left side of the screen has differing stages of quality. The lower half appears to be decaying/corrupting the further it goes down, the middle seems to be the 'normal' or base state, and the top looks like it is becoming 'better' the further it goes up. I would go so far as to say that this might have been put in place for future gameplay and updates down the road when hypers/ tissos/ neuros and magna-tyrannosaurus equivalent creatures are introduced into the game. Perhaps the corrupting section of DNA is supposed to represent the progress of your creature's mutation towards becoming hyper/tisso/neuro, and the top half 'shiny' section of DNA represents the progress of the mutation that is becoming the epitome of the species you are playing (i.e. magna-tyrannus). Again, not sure if it's already been said or if it is super obvious, but I thought it was interesting that it is there and doesn't seem to have any other function currently.
fresh rivet
I never noticed/looked at it that way. Could also be a work on the affinity mechanic in the future?
astral cypress
I am unfamiliar with the affinity mechanic, is it different than the strains?
wicked belfry
It's something mentioned but not what it is or what it does yet.
We just know it exists.
astral cypress
Interesting.
proper steppe
We also know that DNA stuff is related to it
And it has been explained pretty well
look at pinned messages in #401464048610312195
spice coyote
Dna strand at the character screen's for the affinity system when it's in
Down bad.
Up good.
proper steppe
Dondi also said the affinity system isn't a lore thing
icy onyx
Yea, I brought up that idea awhile back.
tribal trench
It is a. Lore thing.
Was in a transmission
But I doubt it has to do with strains.
proper steppe

So, maybe its stupid, because it sounds and i may be stupid, but has anyone tried to SYNC the video feedback of the cameras in the main menu?, if you see the timers are different each clip, and ae not in any order, maybe telling us a tiny bit of info? about the dinosaurs tested or something?
slow delta
the clips dont seem that important
unless we find a hidden cannibal looking at the cannibal
pearl palm
Has anyone noticed the videos for the text in the bottom left when you die isn't in the game files? At least if they are, their hard to find.
sudden prawn
acoustic pine
i don't know if anyone remembers this or if it could be useful but dondi said on a stream that Halsey's song "Gasoline" has something to do with the lore
snow solar
yes! i remember him mentioning that

It's too small for me too read. I've tried zooming in on it and enhancing it but just unable to make it clear.

What I can make out of the bottom text. Top text is way too small to make out.
pearl palm
The weird thing is
The text is different sometimes
Heres another
I can record them but like i've said, ive tried zooming in and it just distorts it

This is everything on side the DNA strand in the first pic.

Hmm. Words at the bottom of the second pic I can't make out. Looks like they're in all caps which makes it a lot tougher.

This part is old, been in for years probably
Don't know about the rest
But it's incredibly low res if it is even letters and not pixels arranged to look like letters
So it's probably indecypherable
Or you'd need a very high res monitor to read it
nimble cape
All the text is the same
it's just that you don't see all of it one on death screen
because of scrolling and the length of all the text
but correct me if I'm wrong
I haven't payed attention to it in a bit

It's weird, I can't find those files
wicked belfry

I was hoping some of this would apply to being able to login
It makes me wonder why the people who have logged in haven't spoke up
wicked belfry
Could be under a sort of NDA
Not like a legal one but enough to be trusted to not disclose anything and risk losing everything
icy onyx
hmmm
shut remnant
what's that from?
shut remnant
ye but like what is it?
icy onyx
images flash
shut remnant
oohh
icy onyx
looks like a modified/cut up spino?
pearl palm
Well if people are logging in, that means there is a way. I figure the hints to login are hidden in the text that roles by.
shut remnant
neuro spino I think
pearl palm
that picture is old
pearl palm
Phoenix logo
pearl palm
thats also been looked in to
icy onyx
i'm really late into the theory stuff xD
but it interests me
so why not try
also maybe try to get into the game files
wicked belfry
Hmm. If I could make out the bottom text easier I could try to decipher it. The stuff next to the DNA is easier to read but the bottom text is tough since it fades at the top.
wicked belfry
If there's a clue to the login, it'll probably be in that bottom text
pearl palm
Someone told me we werent allowed to edit our game files to login
lucid ermine
Will the picture with the neuro spino is on tapwings deviant art. I think she made it before she was a dev.
pearl palm
The only other way i can think of is through an event
wicked belfry
It could be a certain sequence you have to do in the game.
pearl palm
in game
icy onyx
or is that againsed the puzzle rules?
pearl palm
Theres the north star I keep mentioning
pearl palm
icy onyx
yes
wicked belfry
Like, "if you click here, then click here. Wait 5 seconds, go to this option...."
icy onyx
on a certain cycle
pearl palm
The north star only appears in the sky for 10minutes
icy onyx
moon cycle
pearl palm
a full moon is presumably the 15th cycle
wicked belfry
Well, the North Star is a part of the Little Dipper/ Ursa Minor in the constellations, innit?
pearl palm
I don't think it's accurate
icy onyx
yea
wicked belfry
Dunno if this relates to anything, just kinda spitballing
icy onyx
but the mores code on the radio tower
wicked belfry
If it relates to stars, then it likely also relates to constellations if I had to hazard a guess.
Or with navigation by stars
icy onyx
good idea
pearl palm
is that v3 or thenyaw tho
wicked belfry
Constellations are essentially "connecting the dots" with the stars as dots
wicked belfry
Which radio tower is the morse code coming from?
icy onyx
on dev branch
v3 i think?
the one that also has the dock
they are talking about the dock in the mores code as well
sooo
pearl palm
are these the screens that flash super fast when you start the game up? @icy onyx
icy onyx
yes
in the game files there is just a clip of the title startup and you can go by frame by frame
maybe logging in has something to do with the in game admin terminal?
just an idea
pearl palm
i think there may be something there at that valley
icy onyx
hey what is the contingency protocol?
icy onyx
probs like a thing to kill all of the dinos
wow
gives a good look at time
so the dinos might only be on these islands
no ware else in the world
wicked belfry
Well there's also "extinction event" that I caught on one of the death screens
icy onyx
yes i think that the contingency protocol is the event?
"electro magnetic fluctuation detected in sector 4"
probs a neuro spino
oooh
wind velocity normal
water salinity normal
precipitation normal
seismic activity problem
😮
apollo core access granted flashes as well
site AEeD12
SAT Link verified
omg
sat link
satellite link
that is right before
access granted
maybe not a star
a satellite
hey
i can't decipher this
can anyone help?
it says access restricted
something else
bottom right is electromagnetic (probs another "electromagnetic activity in sector 4" thing)
hey
tulip salmon
The uh. “North star” moves in the game independent of the rest of the stars at night. I’ve sat and watched it, it moves (seems to rise very slowly upward) like the moon/sun while the star background stays the same ^^^ someone might be on to something about the satellite thing
icy onyx
weird text....
top left...
look
only half letters 😦
those aren't in any other shots
i wonder if the top half are hidden in another corner....
to line them up
can they track the dinos?
or maybe it is this jeep
receiving telemetry tracking...
gloomy viper
So, the replicator is an AI right?
icy onyx
maybe
or remote controlled? by the satellite
if we read these error logs we can see the damage needed to be fixed to then be able to log in maybe
gloomy viper
Discord breaking lol
icy onyx
ikr xD
gloomy viper
Anyways, what if it manufactures a substance?
gloomy viper
Like there's this tissoplastic stuff and all that
gloomy viper
What if that's an element created by the system and then it's mixed with other stuff
icy onyx
"syscheck G/S error"
gloomy viper
To create a new, powerful element.
icy onyx
gloomy viper
It's running hundreds of processes to create this artificial DNA
wicked belfry
A smaller thing to note, though dunno if it has significance, is when you're selecting a server, the radar in the background is centered in northern/northwestern Africa
gloomy viper
Alright afk
icy onyx
interesting
it starts to lose quality here
ok here we go
there we go that should be the full globe
gloomy viper
There's a big dot on the bottom of Australia
icy onyx
syscheck error network integrity compromised
:/
"network"
more sites?
or labs?
or satellites?
gloomy viper
Maybe
icy onyx
ok all of that is all of the stuff that happens during start screen xD
finaly got it all posted
so to see any of it just scroll back
gloomy viper
Tasmania Australia seems to be where one of the dots are
icy onyx
correct
gloomy viper
California is highlighted
wicked belfry
One looks near the southern tip of Chile
gloomy viper
And what seems to be yukon
icy onyx
interesting
maybe part of the telemetry sys mentioned
or the targeting system?
probs targeting
icy onyx
ik
gloomy viper
And the lore takes place "live"
icy onyx
and notice the massive room that one shot was in
was back
way*
there is no ware big enough
unless underground
gloomy viper
I want to find out what the gateway is
gloomy viper
?
icy onyx
how the place went to shit
an electromagnetic blast
stopped the sat comunication
and stuff happened here
lemme show you
icy onyx
do tell
icy onyx
ooh cool
ok got it
i will post 19 pics
first to last in chronological order
so scroll up to see the first
and read in order
gloomy viper
Alright
icy onyx
i think there is a pc in that radio tower hut thing with that moving camera maybe!
that can be repaired?
still operating "cortex corruption within acceptable parameters"
and it is sending the mores
that is why it is there
it is trying to signal the dock on the sys net
to get to the satellite
gloomy viper
Ooo
icy onyx
and activate the contingency protocol
which would presumably lock down the island
or location or whatever
but anyway
you see what i mean?
it says how the dinos escaped
gloomy viper
Yeah, that's awesome
icy onyx
the stupid humans did tests
made a neuro
it blasted them with emp
which ruined the containment system
and consequently the network of satellites and computers
stated as corruption
but one was still ok
gloomy viper
Wow, that's amazing
icy onyx
and it is trying to reset the system
😃
it all makes perfect since
basically, they messed with stuff they shouldn't, and made something too powerful
and i'm sure there is stuff in the files themselfs
gloomy viper
Was AE the ones who stole assets And destroyed the atriums in the process?
icy onyx
not just these error logs, and flashes of images
maybe
also
notice
there are two different things
on the logs i just posted (most recent)
they dont have a globe in the back
AND
they also can log into the sys
but the other one
which does have a globe
CAN
log in
😮
gloomy viper
Hold up
icy onyx
the globe one is a satellite, this one is the computer or dock or radio tower maybe
they are all trying to fix the sys
gloomy viper
The one Greek god I posted earlier
icy onyx
yes?
gloomy viper
They also control time and look through it
icy onyx
oh nice
gloomy viper
Maybe the missing globe signifies destruction
icy onyx
nah
gloomy viper
And the one canobal thing had a date from the future?
gloomy viper
Oh yeah, probably that
icy onyx
it would explain the highlights
i wonder if dondi just reads this
and laughs to himself
gloomy viper
Wait, are there 3 smaller maps and 1 giant one.?
gloomy viper
Lol
icy onyx
he is probs just laughing at the theories
gloomy viper
Are all 3 maps currently released around the same size?
gloomy viper
And island 4 is coming soon-ish right?
icy onyx
idk i wasn't playing yet xD
gloomy viper
Oh.
icy onyx
maybe it was though...
gloomy viper
It seems to be a more populated area from what I've seen
With more structures that other places, and I could be wrong but, I think I may have found one of the highlighted spots on the globe
3 smaller island and one huge one
gloomy viper
OHHH
icy onyx
yes
gloomy viper
I found something again
icy onyx
but it might be the satellite 😃
gloomy viper
I was looking up atmospheric weather near the area
And it lead me to another spot located on the globe
pearl palm
The official isle testing server also restarts every time morning begins to come
gloomy viper
Event Hough they are on separate sides of the planet
icy onyx
hmmm
gloomy viper
What the
icy onyx
wow
pearl palm
The north star only appears for 10minutes
gloomy viper
I don't think that's a coincidence because it's the exact spot
icy onyx
wait..
i think ur right earlier
when you said it isn't in the game data
it is just a big treasure hunt
starting from those spots
pearl palm
gloomy viper
Who me?
gloomy viper
Me or wolfy
icy onyx
wolfy
gloomy viper
oh
I did find a link between a spot highlighted in Australia and a spot in Antarctica
icy onyx
interesting
icy onyx
maybe try to find that mentioned island chain
gloomy viper
I think I did
icy onyx
and see if there is a similar valley?
icy onyx
the great lakes are kind of highlighted... :/
wow ur right that spot is exactly on tasmania
i wonder if you could plot a sat course through all of the dots and only one sat goes through them all?
gloomy viper
wHoa
gloomy viper
I just found some th inf
icy onyx
moneyz
gloomy viper
That mgi htj be huge
icy onyx
expensive
gloomy viper
That might be huge
icy onyx
i wish though
gloomy viper
Wow lore hunting is fun
icy onyx
ikr
gloomy viper
So now meteors and extinction events, being somehow linked to a few islands in australia?
gloomy viper
Some people where thinking this area was a gateway to a hollow earth....
icy onyx
the meteor that killed the dinos hit near new mexico..
gloomy viper
Gateway again?
icy onyx
greenland is highlighted as well
pearl palm
oi
icy onyx
?
gloomy viper
a huge 300 mile main impact crater around the meteor
Yeah that's extinction event sized all right...
icy onyx
Lol
pearl palm
Which one looks more clear
icy onyx
People that think there is a hole to the center of the earth arent very geologicaly versed...
pearl palm
gloomy viper
Maybe not into tje earth, but to the sky?
pearl palm
The right one was from The official isle testing server v3
pearl palm
the left one was from dev 4 v3
gloomy viper
Meteors contain lots of types of materials
icy onyx
They look to be taken at different times though...
gloomy viper
Maybe one of the corporations is mining that asteroid
icy onyx
Maybe :/
gloomy viper
Because it has a valuable resource
gloomy viper
Could be one of the elements used to make strains, could be a type of fuel used to keep a gateway open
icy onyx
They looked to be cutting into a neuro spino
gloomy viper
Testing effects of the elements?
icy onyx
And maybe they used genetic modifications to create the strains
So as to harvest them
For unique medicinal purposes
icy onyx
And OMFG
gloomy viper
Bio weapons
icy onyx
I just got it
gloomy viper
I JUST REMEMBERED SORMTHINF
icy onyx
The colossus
Omfg
The medicine made from the neuro strain harvesting
Went wrong and made the human subject into that thing maybe
gloomy viper
SOMEHWERE IT SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THE DINOSAURS NOT WANTING TO DO WHAT THEY WANT SO THEY MADE THEM THINK IT'S WHAT THEY WANT
Oops caps
icy onyx
Oh ya i forgot
gloomy viper
But they might be manipulating creatures to use as weapons
And modifying them with this strain material
icy onyx
"Chaos is the surest form of control"
gloomy viper
Holy
gloomy viper
And someone said the song gasoline related to the game, so I listened to the lyrics earlier. This is what stuck out to me:
icy onyx
Along with the help of the magna rex as seen in a pic of it chasing stuff in a super white image flashed quickly at load startup
gloomy viper
Is about the "fault in my code" part but the other thing seemed to be big
icy onyx
Ya
icy onyx
Maybe they didnt expect it to have emp
Like in jurrasic world with the original indom
And its abilities
gloomy viper
What a out tissoplastic and hypodicerin
gloomy viper
I saw something when I was investigating Greek ties about hypo- something, apollo, titans, and something about the sun and the moon
icy onyx
And using hunans as vessels for making crazy super mutant colossus stuff
Hey
Qe are forgeting about the huge bones
gloomy viper
To make human weapons to sell to a nation...
gloomy viper
We haven't even tried going into the matriarch yet
But, what if they fave the matriarch DNA from all 3 strains..
Gave*
icy onyx
And not a human alteration most likely judging from the spine
icy onyx
Ok
"cranial abnormality"
it is maybe referring to the neuro spino that sent the emp blast that eventually ruined the island
it backs up the idea that the emp ability wasn't intended...
also "all island VISITORS"
icy onyx
oh i over looked that
but i mean
it is a spino strain
so it wouldn't be spinosaurus aegypticus....
gloomy viper
Baxk
icy onyx
yea maybe it was a hybrid :/
proper steppe
That's...
icy onyx
oh it was the species name? nvrmind then
proper steppe
That's a regular allo
gloomy viper
Or a sea snail
icy onyx
lol
proper steppe
What is this about a neuro spino "ruining the island"?
icy onyx
oh god...
gloomy viper
It's EMO ability
icy onyx
long story
gloomy viper
EMP*
icy onyx
scroll up i posted the series of events
proper steppe
Yeah, no
icy onyx
lol
gloomy viper
It might be allosaur but
icy onyx
are you even
proper steppe
I already see you trying to claim that the skeleton is a spino of some kind
gloomy viper
who me I is dumb
icy onyx
lol
proper steppe
Explain your theory to me
proper steppe
Or, if your theory makes any sense, you can explain it
proper steppe
Are you seriously trying to argue that it isn't Allosaurus
That it is referring to?
sharp frigate
It's talking about Allosaurus.
icy onyx
sigh i think we need to focus on the satellite stuff
gloomy viper
dude these things look completely evil
proper steppe
You still haven't explained this "neuro spino that ruined the island"
Why specifically neuro spino, anyway? 🤔
icy onyx
it could have been any of them
gloomy viper
They look like the kind of thing that covers a creature's body and digs into it's skin.
icy onyx
just i know a neuro with emp did it
icy onyx
it interrupted the satellite and radio tower's network
gloomy viper
This fun lore hunting has gotten unfun :c
icy onyx
because there was an emp blast...
on the island...
in sector 4
if you would read
the screen shots
proper steppe
People can do emps as well, though?
icy onyx
herp it is a dino island
proper steppe
Pretty easily
icy onyx
in a clearly monitored area
proper steppe
They aren't big
icy onyx
hell ya they are
proper steppe
We don't know how well monitored it was
gloomy viper
There are cameras everywhere
nimble cape
neuro allo 
icy onyx
and probs also fences everyware
also monitored
but sure..
one human
can get in
if they had a MASSIVE emp bomb, a small army to protect themselfs
and a way through the fences
gloomy viper
I doubt it was outside interference
gloomy viper
Unless the other corporation did it
proper steppe
except we have fucking neurotenic dinosaurs
if technology is able to do that, me thinks an emp grenade isn't impossible
especially since the military has already shown interest in such a thing
icy onyx
emp's and genetics are very different
gloomy viper
Who's to say their technology did it?
icy onyx
genetics is combining and reconstructing
icy onyx
and an emp is battling the force it wields
proper steppe
Then your argument is invalid
pearl palm
icy onyx
somehow
proper steppe
They can make giant mutant dinosaurs that I'm pretty sure are physically impossible in certain cases
pearl palm
This is the north star on thenyaw
proper steppe
chances are they could make an emp grenade
pearl palm
It's incredibly dim compared to v3
icy onyx
i think if any ware the satellite will be on v3, since that is where the radio tower is
sending it's mores code on
icy onyx
to the dock
nimble cape
interesting
gloomy viper
Yes
icy onyx
no ^
nimble cape
I really wonder what the deal with that glowing sky thing is
proper steppe
Just a tank full of human brains
nimble cape
it obviously isn't a star
proper steppe
just because we can
gloomy viper
Uh
icy onyx
it is either a portal or satellite
gloomy viper
A tank full of human brains?
No...
That's not at all how I meant it
I meant as in they are connected into one, fused with the machine and neruotenic
proper steppe
Extracted human brains would seem to suggest brains that have been extracted from the skull, but ok
icy onyx
i still think it might all be for medicine creation
gloomy viper
Maybe, but how would they get the funds?
icy onyx
dont ask me
nimble cape
dinosaur anatomy is nothing like a humans
icy onyx
gloomy viper
The money invested into this project is more on a government level. I'm thinking bio-weapons
nimble cape
don't think that's the reason
icy onyx
icy onyx
gloomy viper
HOLD
icy onyx
?
proper steppe
That's Phoenix Corporation's logo on the first picture
The second picture is just them dissecting a neuro spino
nimble cape
^
icy onyx
yes...
gloomy viper
What if Phoenix is going after medicine and Apollo is going after weapons?
nimble cape
Pheonix Corporation is where they stole the assets from or something similar to that in operation inferno
something along those lines
pheonix got fucked
I don't think it exists anymore
icy onyx
maybe i was all wrong
maybe
it wasnt an emp
the electromagnetic pulse detected
could have been a power surge
nimble cape
I think it's just AE now
icy onyx
from apollo breaking in
gloomy viper
Phoenix was trying to make medicine and Apollo wanted weapons. Apollo has government funding and firepower so they easily took out Phoenix and stole their subjects but they couldn't contain them because they didn't know it's full property allowing a neruotenic I fused organism to cause an EMP that let chaos loose in the isle
nimble cape
i'm pretty sure
icy onyx
and the colossus is appollo trying to compine hypo strains and humans to get GM humans for combat
nimble cape
it's all Apollo engineerings shit
gloomy viper
Yeah Apollo caused it
nimble cape
the only reason pheonix is in the lore is because it was supposed to be a tie in with primal carnage anyway
proper steppe
Phoenix Corp. was the company in Primal Carnage, that's the left over references from back before The Isle decided to stop trying to connect the games because the Primal Carnage team gave a bad deal.
nimble cape
The islands we play on are owned by apollo engineering not by pheonix corp
gloomy viper
Tardis is probably owned by Apollo
nimble cape
if them stealing their assets is still canon to the lore it didn't happen in the in-game islands
gloomy viper
Tardaris*
nimble cape
would have been a completely seperate island
gloomy viper
Alright I'm off, it's 2AM
icy onyx
some of you i didnt show the globe to
nimble cape
Everything on the islands in game has AE plastered on it anyway
nimble cape
Okay?
proper steppe
You don't need to show us each rotation
gloomy viper
I found and linked some locations on the globe and you d some stuff out about Greek mythology ties to the game
proper steppe
it's a globe
nimble cape
What's that supposed to do with anything lol
icy onyx
thoughs are all of the globe sides
icy onyx
and there are highlighted spots
gloomy viper
On parts of the globe
icy onyx
like tasmania
icy onyx
near the bottom of australia
nimble cape
There is another map in the game on the server menu that is probably more reliable
proper steppe
I can't see it
gloomy viper
Which, has a huge meteor crater near the exact spot highlighted in antartica
And there are Greek mythological ties that back this up
gloomy viper
And what about operation Hades and operations Poseidon
proper steppe
Probably the outposts corresponding to the map on the main menu
gloomy viper
Does that mean the final operatione would be operation Zeus? The god of all Greek gods, the god of lightning?
Herp why's an outpost in a crater caused by a meteor with a 300 mile impact zone
Seems to be maybe harvesting resources?
And I still don't trust these sand minnows
They look EVIL!
gloomy viper
These are super rare
icy onyx
?
nimble cape
Why is that in this channel
gloomy viper
It's my exit
nimble cape
not just that
gloomy viper
heckon didn't appreciate my exit...
The Minnow relates to the topix
Now gOttA bLasT

Please stop going offtopic
tribal trench
OK. This is NOT the Phoenix logo. If you look at it, it's the same logo as the caduceus staff, for medicine.
Also, hypo quetz first broke out of atrium c, so they repurposed it for land hypos (and I think smth else but j don't remember)
slow delta
we've gone over all this stuff so many times already
tribal trench
Yep
timber bison
or maybe it has some link with genetic or research. maybe the first purpose of all of this was searching for a cure ?
wicked belfry
How badly do you have to fuck up to be looking for a cure and suddenly dinosaurs xD
dull basalt
naive mountain
It was figured out that it was Caduceus staff a while ago, I mentioned that it is possible that its simply meant to be a nod to Phoenix and dinosauriac seemed to agree.
tribal trench
Yes, but herp said it was Phoenix logo earlier so wanted to clarify
naive mountain
Fair enough
It's interesting because the Caduceus is incorrectly used as a medical symbol instead of the Rod of Asclepius
A lot of the timr
wicked belfry
Going off the theory that dinos could be lab rats, if that's indeed the case then it implies that their genetic makeup is similar enough to ours to be the best thing to test cures for disease, excluding maybe other primates. Since the entire reason we use rats is because they react to diseases and the like in a similar way to us. The caveat of this is that rats are very easy to get, breed and maintain. So if dinos are being used for cures, there would have to be a pretty good reason to use them over rats.
fresh rivet
Well, they tested the strains in both dinosaurs and humans. Which one could've come first? Did they use dinos as test subject for "human evolution"?
(taking the testing idea away from the cure research thought)
tribal trench
I'm guessing humans came after.
wicked belfry
So, thought. Dinos came first, which led to the discovery/creation of hypo dinos. After seeing these results, they tested it on humans, leading to the cannibals.
tribal trench
Unless, ae has some "extendable" people. Like criminals, just like class D in all that scp stuffs
Alec, you mean leading to echidna, colossus and reapers right?
We don't know where cannibals came from or what they are... We do know colossus, echidna and reapers are hypo, neuro, tisso humans
wicked belfry
Well, them. Yeah.
slow delta
when you die, there's some stuff on the right side mentioning "downloading" and other things which coincide with the conciousness transfer thing
tribal trench
Probably replicator stuff, as in u die and the thing downloads ur consciousness into a "database" for your next dino
earnest glade
Ima need to traul through all this new stuff when I get home 👀
Any Juicy new stuff that people have found with the new update?
gloomy viper
What if the isle isn't actually where we think it is
It could be underground, the entire place.
tribal trench
gloomy viper
Look towards the sky, the gateway was there all along?
That makes me think of an area with simulated skies and artificial habitats
tribal trench
that makes me think no
gloomy viper
Somewhere it said, look to the sky, the gaetway was there all along
tribal trench
gateway is the way to get in and out of tartarus iirc.
gloomy viper
Tartarus is a place in the underworld, in terms of greek mythology
tribal trench
we have no evidence of being underground tho
and tartarus and gateway aren't the same building/area most likely
gloomy viper
oh ok
wicked belfry
I think it being underground is a weak theory, too. Nothing suggests it in the least. Even if they're clearly more advanced than we are, nothing would point to that level of technology afaik. "Gateway" can be interpreted in different ways as more than a literal gateway, such as a gateway to knowledge. It might not be an actual physical gateway, but simply what leads to the truth. As for Tartarus, it could be based on the purpose of Tartarus in greek mythology instead of it's actual location.
Looking it up, its a kinda fitting name as it's a prison for the Titans and a dungeon of torment and suffering for the wicked. The latter part could possibly related to the theory about AE being able to transfer consciousness, but the first half seems fitting enough. Interestingly, Tartarus is also the third of the primordial dieties and father of the titan Typhon in some sources. Typhon is the most deadly creature in Greek mythology and is described as a monsterous serpentine giant.
So there's enough there where we can draw some pretty interesting theorized
Theories*
wicked belfry
I stg if that's true imma kill a bitch xD
gloomy viper
Lmao
