[coral gorge]

right?

[eternal talon]

me and LFKitty have been looking for about 20 minutes

[coral gorge]

ngl i feel like it is within the realm of possibility to convince someone like Elon Musk to buy that land and actually drop a fucking mining/research complex there

[coral gorge]

skill issue clearly

you are doing it wrong

you just gotta go to mexico and camp there for like a week

eventually the owner is gonna show up

s u r e l y

[fresh gyro]

Lfkitty

I am now lfgs

[eternal talon]

does mexio have a form of squatters rights where if you just camp there for a couple years you automatically get the deed like america?

[fresh gyro]

LMAO

[coral gorge]

great question

if yes

well

im moving to mexico

[eternal talon]

its all heavily forested woodland

[fresh gyro]

Uh

[eternal talon]

wouldnt be that hard to hide

[fresh gyro]

5-20 years

[eternal talon]

hardest part would be sneaking in and out to resupply and funding

[coral gorge]

i mean hey, define camping. If i just need to sleep there then thats golden

[eternal talon]

in america at least, you must use it as if it were your actual residence

[coral gorge]

ill just get the best possible tent and work in the nearby city (theres a nearby city somewhere right?)

[eternal talon]

so if it were barren terrain, basically just setting up any kind of structure

i was looking on government websites to see if it was owned by the city or the state

and different parcels have different designations in the states at least,

like commercial properties arent covered by squatters rights

so if it was zoned for say, logging, that would be a no-go

[coral gorge]

i mean tbh... if its owned by a private dude then i doubt he would want too high of a price for it anyway. Like its a bunch of empty land in the middle of nowhere

[coral gorge]

just eat all the trees there and make them stop logging there

flawless

[eternal talon]

you'd be surprised, some of the plots @fresh gyro found were up to 100k

in bum-fuck nowhere

[coral gorge]

what da fuq

fucking inflation

[eternal talon]

^

135k

[coral gorge]

christ

like dedication is one thing but taking a loan for life is another thing

[eternal talon]

neither of those plots were near the coords, though

this entire side of the road is empty.

unless it is all zoned as one huge fucker, at least one plot should be avaliable realistically

[coral gorge]

s u r e l y

[eternal talon]

if it were cheap enough, do you think 10cc would buy it just for the meme?

[covert tangle]

ulf's holiday home

[honest summit]

Man the R8A1/A2 quake Just keeps bothering me. Is that supposed to be the Sound of world merging together? On First glance it Could be the other Team dropping in, but it is Something that both of the Teams Heard, If it were the other Team dropping in, then the other Team should Not have Heard anything

[eternal talon]

i'm pretty sure its the former.

[coral gorge]

yeah im guessing its the wordline merge

it would make sense, after all we find literall upside down rooms in A1/A2 so something like that happening surely would make a sound

plus had the merge happened earlier, surely one of the Scheaffers would have noticed it

[eternal talon]

what, like the r6cx corpses?

[honest summit]

Tbh it can be Just random No Name KSOs, who Just Happens to wear Same Masks as our protags

Personally i dont think that all the different Masks are Cannon

Shaeffer did mention that countless KSOs are Roaming inside the facility, some of them are bound to die

[coral gorge]

Ehhhhh fuck i forgor about that

[eternal talon]

bro... they are literally named Dauda's Mask, Hackett's Wetworks etc

[coral gorge]

also yeah

im p sure bodies of our characters are the bodies of our guys

Like had they atleast given them diffrent masks or anything then sure. But like… they are the same

[coral gorge]

i mean we still have the whatever the fuck R1D1s code is to figure out

[eternal talon]

there are generic versions of those masks too.... they just didnt use them

[coral gorge]

yeah

cuttiny corners is one thing but cmon, i refuse to believe thats not on purpose

[eternal talon]

and its not just the masks, its the entire getup

[honest summit]

Arent they called that Just because its their old Masks pre Release?

[coral gorge]

bots wear them im p sure

[coral gorge]

also skin colours fit dauda

[eternal talon]

no, in the cosmetics, there are both the named ones and the generic ones. they are colored differently.

[honest summit]

Bots have the uncoloured Versions i think

[coral gorge]

which i doubt would be a thing if it wasnt actually supposed to be our guys, theyd just keep them all white

[coral gorge]

Maybe not sure

[coral gorge]

he looks so happy =)

[eternal talon]

it looks like it is the generic, but it is really hard for me to tell. i should have gotten more images of the corpses.

regardless though, (none have backpacks), but the torso and legs are also the same as used for the bots

3x match unintententional? i doubt it.

[honest summit]

the hackett version of his mask does have the yellow swimming cap underneath it. i really dont believe that the named masks are cannon

according to the wiki this is the pre rundown 6 hackett, and he does have the swimming cap, so i assume that the named masks are nothing more than legacy content if you want to make your character look like in the pre release version

[finite vine]

did we ever find out why the aliens crashed on earth?

[fresh gyro]

did we find anything

[warped bloom]

No gas

Turbulence

[plush nest]

I just billed something like this through, with insurance they paid nothing for a month, without insurance, they would have had to pay 200ish for the month

Ok no more talk about that, back to lore

[plush nest]

Took a left instead of a right

[plush nest]

I thought it was « get out » or « go deeper » something like that

[royal crow]

funny virus + aliens = death

[eternal talon]

nope. just probably

crew killed by virus or sleeperized, then crashed on autopilot

realistically probably isnt much more complex than that tbh

but nah, we dont got any explicit this is what happened answers for it

[finite vine]

what info from lore do we have

or is that just all speculation

[royal crow]

we have a lot of info from the lore

so

yeah

its a shit ton

[raw terrace]

lot of logs from the game :D

[royal crow]

188 logs

:D

[raw terrace]

:D

[finite vine]

well the answer from frostty didn't sound very concrete so i was just wondering if like we know what the aliens wanted from humanity and why they crashed on earth on countless timelines

kinda seems like they did it on purpose for them to crash on earth that may times

[royal crow]

they crashed before humanity was a thing

they were the reason the dinasours went extinct

[finite vine]

ik but why that specific planet

[royal crow]

because yes?
i mean
if your ship gets overrun by monsters and everyone dies

i doubt someone is controlling where it goes

||its a canon event||

[finite vine]

yea but for that to happen on hundreds of earths on hundreds of timelines, when the aliens literally could use the MWP to manipulate space and time it seems like they would have only made that mistake like once

[royal crow]

yeah true
but they didnt know if the virus was going to break containment

each timeline has its own events and timeline

[finite vine]

or, maybe i'm looking at the timelines wrong. maybe the aliens only crashed on earth once, then humans got ahold of the MWP and used it on earth and that created more timlines that branched off of that specific timeline

[royal crow]

nope

the timelines are there

they have always been there and always are going to be there

[finite vine]

im talking specifically of the timelines where there are different version of garganta. the timlines of earth where the aliens crashed on it.

[royal crow]

yeah?

they have always been there

lol

all timelines already exist

[finite vine]

ok these are the situations i'm talking about:

1. did the aliens crash on earth on purpose, on a hundred different timelines?
2. or did the just crash on earth once by accident.

Answer for 1)
we know that there are multiple timelines where earth has a garganta complex, because we travel there in game using the MWP. that could mean that there are multiple timelines where the aliens crashed on earth, and then garganta was built. why would the aliens crash on earth multiple times? it would seem, that since they had the MWP, that they would only crash once, then not make that mistake again.

Answer for 2)
maybe the aliens crashed on earth by accident once, on one timeline. then, humans created garganta and then when they started to use the MWP they indirectly created new timelines that branched off of the OG timeline where the aliens crashed on earth only once.

I feel like the devs just need to come out and release like a lore video lmao

[royal crow]

Ansswer for 1:
they crashed on earth because in all timelines the virus breachs contaiment and kills everyone on board (at least the ones we know of)
answer for 2:
NO, they dont crash once and then we use the MWP to create new timelines
the timelines already exist since the creation of the universe

also you CANT make new timelines witht the MWP (indirectly or directly)

the MWP acts like a door to other timelines not like a timeline-making-controller stuff

[royal crow]

for answer 1: the virus is impossible to actually contain

it transfers through everything and anything

also for answer 1: if they are being killed by the virus they dont really have any reason to travel to another timeline and warn them of the danger
they will doom that world they travel to
or they died before they could use the MWP or died BEFORE they crashed on earth <most likely a mix of all the 3 stuff i just said

once you have the virus you are 100% dead (unless you use something like the HSU)

[eternal talon]

true, but still worldlines apply. every action after the crash is still making new worldlines

and those new worldlines would have the crash as an event that happened in the past, even if it was only the one ship to begin with

its basically infinitely copy-pasting the ship and all of its contents

worldline theory in quantum mechanics never stops happening.

[finite vine]

yea thats what i figured

[royal crow]

look who is here

[eternal talon]

2 is infinitely more likely than 1.

but more than just mwp shenanigans make worldlines

[royal crow]

technically all worldlines already exist

[eternal talon]

everything that could have multiple outcomes do.

for example: you deciding to make toast for breakfast or not creates an entire new universe where the other choice is and was always true instead

[fresh gyro]

did you end up finding anything @eternal talon

[eternal talon]

or maybe you make the toast, and you accidentally burn it. there is now another worldline where you didnt burn it.

and maybe a couple more, where it was only slightly burned, or came out undercooked,

worldlines are infinite and brain hurting

[fresh gyro]

how the fuck do you undercook toast

[royal crow]

it happens alright

[eternal talon]

bread.

[royal crow]

it happens

[fresh gyro]

HOW

ok

[royal crow]

DONT ASK ME

nonsense, this entire channel is a friend group.

literally nobody else talks here lmao

everybody knows everybody that talks here

[royal crow]

yeah true
the same like 10 people?

[eternal talon]

pretty much

[royal crow]

its like a big public gc

[fresh gyro]

yes

[fresh gyro]

this is the entire gtfo server

[raw terrace]

[fresh gyro]

it is not in the most active state

:3

[fresh gyro]

heyyyyyyyyyy

[raw terrace]

heyyyyyy

[royal crow]

honestly
i really like the GTFO community is small

[fresh gyro]

mhm

[royal crow]

everyone knows everyone

good communication

[eternal talon]

its funny, but this will probably be the last active channel on the server just because we dont really need the lore at this point, we are just chilling lore-adjacent

[royal crow]

funny shenanigans every once in a while

[fresh gyro]

except the fucking PEOPLE RULE 7ING US WHILE WERE IN A 10 PERSON VC AHEM

if people are using general or gtfo-chat and stuff, they'll just go to their own servers/channels when this dies

[fresh gyro]

krill yourshellf

[royal crow]

im keeping myself safe

thanks man

[royal crow]

😔

i joined pretty late to the party

[fresh gyro]

gonna be real here

lmao

[eternal talon]

the only things you missed were the brain-snapping ARG logs

[royal crow]

at least i want to get a NMA role

[fresh gyro]

LMAO

[royal crow]

before i leave

[fresh gyro]

dont leave me :C

</3

[eternal talon]

having everything already made-sense-of by the time you got here just saves headache

[royal crow]

i can make a server

[royal crow]

yeaaaaaah

[fresh gyro]

ok~

[royal crow]

i have seen stuff while reading old convos

[fresh gyro]

hmmmmm

[eternal talon]

why would you leave though, tbh?

[fresh gyro]

exactly

mean

[royal crow]

eventually everyone will leave

but

[fresh gyro]

:C

[royal crow]

this is the only discord server i talk in

so its in a far future for me

[eternal talon]

you'll have to make me

[fresh gyro]

[royal crow]

are you challenging me?

[fresh gyro]

pable no

bad pable

:C

[eternal talon]

question: how many enamel pins are required to weigh down a beanie to the point where it is too heavy to wear?

[royal crow]

you just used 2 words i have no idea what they mean

what the fuck is enamel and beanie

[royal crow]

OH

beanies

why are they called beanies? wtf

[fresh gyro]

I mean technically the amount of weight your head can support

Depending on how you wear the beanie

[eternal talon]

so the calculation would be simple...

an anvil's worth of pins...

[fresh gyro]

hmmmmmmmmm

[eternal talon]

That just poses another question...

The surface area of beanie that could be occupied by pins -- would such a number be possible?

[fresh gyro]

no

well no if you want to wear it

[coral gorge]

yeah but the issue is we dont know who gives us that message

[royal crow]

wasnt it schaeffer?

the achivement on steam says: discover schaeffer secret message

[coral gorge]

also why did thia convo devolve into beanies lol

[coral gorge]

Isnt it too early for ALT scheaffer to be there tho?

[eternal talon]

because topics are exteremely limited with the game being dead
-- and i dont remember

[coral gorge]

lmao

[plush nest]

ya i thought it was this?

[eternal talon]

that sounds about right, but i am not 100%.
i do not remember what is required for that achiev to pop

are you guys talking about the r4-r5 stuff, or the alt//r1d1 morse pipe banging?

[royal crow]

just do R1D1

and get to the hallway before reactor

[eternal talon]

ah, morse pipe.

[royal crow]

you hear the metal banging there

[coral gorge]

My issue with it is: isnt alt scheaffer not awake yet?

or does he somehow wake up instantly in ALT

[royal crow]

he already is by then, supposedly

[eternal talon]

and my answer will always be the same in this regard --

there is so much shit wrong with schaeffer, regardinging plot holes and the like, that i just ignore the discrepancies

[royal crow]

what if

schaeffer is just a god

[eternal talon]

he was born on earth, we have his employment file and details about his life pre-employment at SMC

[coral gorge]

Yeahhhh i mean what, we had the theory that we play as X quad in ALT wordline ans in R1D1 its an X scheaffer communicating with us before dying in some hole… srsly how did they fuck him up so much

[coral gorge]

Its all a lie! A fake! An AI!

[royal crow]

so another shitty version of Schaeffer

got it

[eternal talon]

also alt//schaeffer wouldnt be telling us to escape from the warden...
and i'm pretty sure alt// ALSO has the schaeffer being left for dead audio logs in r4

[coral gorge]

Wtf

[eternal talon]

like i said, i just stopped questioning it

[coral gorge]

i know alt has logs of him removing the chip in R3

[eternal talon]

he is nothing but a big ball of plot holes

[eternal talon]

which would also be post r1

[coral gorge]

yeah

Scheaffer is really weird

and i guess thats it, we have to live with it

same as the R8B3 plot hole

[royal crow]

he is dead anyways

so

meh

[eternal talon]

r4b1, alt// unique log. (not from og)

schaeffer removing his chip

[coral gorge]

So yeah this is right after R3D1s log

[eternal talon]

yep, from a dozen things, let alone NAM-V

that he somehow hasn't died from yet

[coral gorge]

he’s just gaming

he is too good to die

[eternal talon]

the tetanus from his lead pipe is the cure for nam-v

[coral gorge]

Also ngl im still amazed how the fuck did 10cc manage to mess up R8B3

[eternal talon]

oh?

i'd love to hear your comments

[royal crow]

elaborate

[coral gorge]

In R8B3 you hear alt scheaffer talk to alt team right?

on da bridge

[royal crow]

yes

[coral gorge]

so thats dialogue from R8B2

except the message that you hear at the end of B3 is the thing you also hear in B1

[royal crow]

what

[eternal talon]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-long-list-list-infinite-list-gif-7915371

[royal crow]

https://tenor.com/view/daspoody-sleep-sleepy-wake-woke-gif-2569845121217246002

[coral gorge]

The automated message about the bulkheads being opened that is triggered by the B3s uplink

you hear it in B1 after geting warped back with the cubes

[royal crow]

worldline shenanigans

thats your answer

[coral gorge]

meaning that B3 takes place both before and after B1

[eternal talon]

schaeffer is the doctor

[coral gorge]

(or rather both after and before)

[eternal talon]

https://tenor.com/view/doctor-who-time-david-tennant-wobbly-timey-wimey-stuff-gif-8120490

[coral gorge]

lol

maybe scheaffer is the friends we lead piped along the way

[eternal talon]

https://tenor.com/view/metal-pipe-gggg-banger-godlike-gif-9885189804401680492

[honest summit]

I dont remember anything TTS related at the end of B1 tho. Could be a Side effect of my Last weeks lobotomy

[coral gorge]

its not the end. Its in the middle after you get 2 cubes and warp to real garganta

[honest summit]

I See it now

If thats the case, during the B3 extraction the alt Team managed to complete the entire B2 in Like 5 minutes

Shaeffer did mention that different membranes have different costants, and If i Recall it correctly, time was one of them

[coral gorge]

But like… we are in the same wordline

id say its just an oversight but how did they achieve it

[honest summit]

So what If, since the worlds merged, the time started acting Up and flow differently for both of the teams

Or ALT Team are giga speedrunners

[honest summit]

Tbh, If they are using Fusion reactors, its already a Wonder that it didnt immediately melted down the Moment cooling was removed

[coral gorge]

actually its worse. Mid B3 you hear B2, and mid B1 you hear end of B3… so ALT team outright jump forward in time and then back

[coral gorge]

We had a talk about this before and i think we came to a conclusion that the meltdown shouldnt do shit to garganta as its way too small

[graceful bolt]

so are the monster number in gtfo like infinite ?

i mean there the mother who birth more of them

are there any limit to them ?

[raw terrace]

don't think so

[honest summit]

It was related to Explosion of a single reactor wasnt it? But Garganta Has more than one reactor, so i dont think that its possible to give exact estimate on what would Happen If all of them Blow, since we dont know how many there even are.

[honest summit]

The Spaghetti ceiling can produce chargers, but i dont think we Got an answer on wether it can sustain itself or relies on prey

[eternal talon]

Nuclear meltdowns are rarely as destructive as media portrays them as, and even rarer -- explode.

They are designed the exact opposite way a nuclear bomb would be

The biggest explosion you'd realistically get, would be the steam cooling system going overpressure and bursting, like what happened at chernobyl, but schaeffer had us disconnect it

For the reactors at garganta... your "explosion" would be a pile of hot sludge melting through the floor of the reactor casing down a couple levels and not much else

There wouldn't even be much of a radioactivity threat unless you are near it as the entire complex is so deep underground the overwhelming majority of the radiation emitted would be contained by the rock itself

If you want to cause destruction with a nuclear reactor, you have to go at it a very specific way, because, y'know, they are designed specifically NOT to explode, and step 1 of schaeffers plan removed the only major destructive possibility

I really don't know where 10cc were going with this, as realistically, it would not be in any way possible

Edit: a Fukushima Daiichi event is the best you could possibly hope for if you were schaeffer, and he fucked up with the very basics. No water/coolant, no pressure, no boom to spread contaminants. Just angry sludge.

[raw terrace]

tbh with how schaeffer is i wouldn't be surprised it is just like intended

at the end the explosion was cause of the teleport, not the reactor itself

[honest summit]

Using Real Life Logic you are absolutely right. The only issue is that ingame technology is Not the Same as ours. Yes i know "we dont know Shit" Argument is lame, but when we inserted the rods in B4 it didnt Sound Like a traditional modern day reactor, so its only Up to 10C to explain the plotholes

[eternal talon]

considering how deep some of these holes are, i genuinely doubt they would ever to double back and fix them, even in a sequel.

-> points at schaeffer

i dont even know how you'd go about fixxing schaeffer tbh...

[honest summit]

Just let him Pipe the holes

[eternal talon]

even in the original rundowns, he was active in a squad before the warden woke him from kds-deep with the rest.

(as he himself caused the lockdown that all of r5 is working to lift to make e1 possible)

[coral gorge]

my guess still is: 10cc tried to make it be a chernobyl-like situation but kinda fucked up

[plush nest]

You think if we asked the devs or whoever wrote the story nice enough they will tell us? I doubt it but never know

But that wouldn’t be any fun so no point

[coral gorge]

ngl i would kill to talk with the writers about this games lore. Like… i wanna ask them what the fuck were they smoking while writing and where can i get it

[plush nest]

Must be some good stuff

[eternal talon]

I did try and ask things in the past during livestream Q/A with the devs. They refused to say.

^ this, the link now appears to be dead but the entire question and answer are posted here.

@coral gorge

Ah yes, 2022. Back when OGr6 was new

[plush nest]

but was that after the game was "finished"?

[eternal talon]

No? Wdym?

Og r6, years ago...

The launch of 1.0

Actually, that is from r6 extension

So post 1.0

[plush nest]

like after r8 is what i meant

[eternal talon]

No no no, that stream was in 2022

[plush nest]

ah, i only started during r7 so thats the only reason i ask. since we have everything just putting things together sort of deal

[eternal talon]

They haven't done a stream like that since afik

And I don't even think we ended up getting that 2nd Q/A, either

But as far as cubix wanting to ask questions to the writers, you can't get much better than the narrative director, and they didn't answer the question.

what does the P mean in P-mother?

Just wondering

Any lore in R8A2 secondary?

In Base Game we have only Shaeffer and an outline of Henrikson

dauda uwu

[tranquil sentinel]

why do they all look so similar

nevermind its just compressed

[raw terrace]

tbh i expected them to be the same before i saw any of em unmasked

i dont know why they actually modeled different faces

considering we never or we barely see em

but well its a nice detail

[gritty sphinx]

what about no boots...

[raw terrace]

u should stop

[gritty sphinx]

[main citrus]

The only part of the prisoner model that actually exists is the face, the rest is just cosmetics

They're all pretty identical

[amber solar]

Yeah. Wasn’t too hard.

[honest summit]

If you think about it, how exactly does Biocom give us different loadouts? Does it Just pry Open our pods and Slit it in?

Could Imagine that our Backpacks with the weapons on them arrive seperately, since it doesnt Look Like it Could fit into your HSU in

[fresh gyro]

Yk thinking a little

I'm not sure as to how we drop with weapons in hand

[coral gorge]

p l o t h o l e

its just another gameplay thingy

we talked about it before, overall our weapons would have to descend down a separate elevator container with us and be given to us after actuly dropping into the mission (as well, i dont think putting guns amd whatnot into HSUs is the best thing ever… also how do they even fit)

[honest summit]

Long enough time passed to Cover it. Its Not Like R8 holes that came Out recently

The Elevator itself is mystery. Its crazy how they are able to Stop a free falling Metal Cage in mere Seconds, without oblitherating us with g force

[loud urchin]

Suspension of disbelief for game mechanics, not everything needs explanation

[honest summit]

When a Game tries to explain everything, but fails at it

[cold sphinx]

Think of it this way

Either you have a weld in rack for those weapons

And when you dropped down you take em

But by no funds for that to actually happens

Just a quick and fast nondescript freeze then u have ur tools and wps

[gusty wagon]

i think itd be cool if we dropped in with the separate pod for our weapons kind of like the few missions where you get a special item like a fog-repeller or etc

[loud urchin]

Where do our guns go when we get into the hsu at extract? Might be a question worth asking before considering where the guns come from when you leave the hsu

Because they're linked, probably, idk

Doesn't matter at all anyhow

[tough wave]

Consider; we throw them on the ground a small gremlin robot picks them up and brings them to us at the start of the next level

[gusty wagon]

probably would be back into a box. clear the sleepers for the time being then hop in the lift

[gusty wagon]

lol then youd run into stuff like
WRDN://
WEAPONS CARRIER DELAYED IN ZONE 65D.
FIND AND RETRIEVE BEFORE PROCEEDING.

and its just hammers until you get there

which would honestly be kind of interesting

[tough wave]

It'd be funny until you ran across something you couldn't kill with hammers

Which idk, I assume varies person to person

[loud urchin]

Everything is hammerable, but I guess tanks, big chargers, and baby waves are the worst

[tough wave]

Look, just because you can hammer it doesn't mean I can fwiw

[tough wave]

Hence the clause

[loud urchin]

Well technically I lied, bit hard to hammer kraken

Please do not paste random images in this channel, and keep it related to GTFO lore

[amber solar]

amateur here, just did some web stuff not sure if i did it right...
If a drop is 1500m deep and we got 5 seconds to decelerate from a velocity of 562.7ft/s that would be 3.49 g's.

roughly

To be more exact...
If the depth is 1500m and we are in free fall for 12.49s falling for 764.919m at a peak velocity of 401ft/s and slow down for the last 5 seconds of the drop, we'd pull the 2.495g's (normal human body can handle 4g's).

BUT amateur. not sure if i did all that right.

[warped bloom]

Thats not much

[cold sphinx]

oh wait

sorry @cunning light

[honest summit]

The Problem is that the weight of our Cage is unknown. Assuming that it weighs at least 1 Ton, the Terminal Velocity should be way way Higher. And that is Not calculating the weight of the Metal thread Rope that we are hanging on

[valid phoenix]

I wonder why we never see any barracks or canteens in the complex, as all of the staff stayed there for months. Also there would have to be some kind of an "entertainment" structures, like cinemas or whatever...

[coral gorge]

p l o t h o l e / gamedesign

overall gargantas architecture makes no sense

[valid phoenix]

Nah still would be cool to fight those creatures in a kitchen

[coral gorge]

true

[valid phoenix]

yup, its like a giant maze with no planning

I wished the whole time to see something that would be "the important thing" over the others, like a giant shaft or a road underground, something that would just connect it all together

[raw terrace]

does kds deep not count

[plush nest]

I assume they meant a giant highway or something

[honest summit]

Garganta is a Mining facility, i dont See a reason why it should have place for Entertainment, since all the workers are probably living on the surface next to the facility

[coral gorge]

i mean… they would have to go up a long way and pretty often

[honest summit]

.

[honest summit]

Dunno man, Something Like a big Elevator is sufficient

[valid phoenix]

I wouldn't believe they would go all the way up just for a lunch each 3 hours or so...

[coral gorge]

Besides, uhhh what was his name? The scientist guy in R8 talks about being in his „living quarters” after the collapse when he was very much stuck in garganta

[valid phoenix]

henrickson?

[coral gorge]

no

lemme check real quick

OH Connor

thats his name

„Full protective gear outside of our quarters.”

R8C1 log

[honest summit]

Hmm. I Could Imagine that its only the Research sections that have them, since they are stationary in comparison to the Mining teams who have to dig deeper

But thinking about it, what If living quarters are Like the Shaeffers hideout in BX

[coral gorge]

I guess it could be? But i mean i doubt it. Like garganta is the size of a city

They had to make atleast some housing areas

and like no way you can have all the personell living up on the surface

there defo wasnt enough room

[valid phoenix]

not even a housing just some restrooms or whatever

[coral gorge]

and i really doubt they let people go home after work, considering what was going on in the complex

[honest summit]

Santonian are owned by Amazon Lmao

[valid phoenix]

there even was one log when some doctor was asking a worker about "stuff" and he wanted go home but couldn't for months

[coral gorge]

imagine lol

[valid phoenix]

bruh

[coral gorge]

i meannnn

Making a giant mine, with a shit ton of spyware and security… not respecting workers…

sounds like smth amazon would do

[valid phoenix]

Nah I just wish we had a giant controll room that would tell us everything about the complex, like the whole layout etc.

[coral gorge]

tbh true, having some sorta control room would be cool

maybe not the whole complex

but atleast a part of it

[valid phoenix]

imagine having a giant ass complex but no even a place to manage it

[valid phoenix]

yea

[coral gorge]

i guess thats what biocom was for

[valid phoenix]

yup, but it wasnt there at the beggining

they introduced it later on

[coral gorge]

although not having a place dedicated to overwieving the complex by humans seems a bit weird

[valid phoenix]

yes and also there is no offices at all

which are mentioned in some logs btw

[coral gorge]

that saying, considering the weird shit Kovac did, they prolly had some super secret controll room somewhere

[valid phoenix]

must be

[coral gorge]

yeah, i really hope if they make a GTFO 2 they atleast try to incorporate that stuff in

like the layouts can still be wonky but having more rooms that had purpose would really add to the atmosphere i feel like

[honest summit]

We need the room of that Guy who was leading it.

Cave Johnson or whatever His Name was

[coral gorge]

lmao

uhhh

Jason Davies?

the CEO?

or Hammerstein the lead scientist?

[honest summit]

A room with more pickled sleepers

[valid phoenix]

Yeah, at least some sort of a priority of rooms etc, cause we just keep seeing the same things over and over again without "the bigger stuff"

and i would love to see some transition in the envirorment, once you have labs and at the other side there is tech stuff, and further in you go you see resting space

[coral gorge]

yeah

im still sad we didnt see the inner

[honest summit]

Could Imagine that we we're somewhere next to in R7E1

[coral gorge]

Ehhh not even i think. R7E1 is 2km deep right? Wasnt the inner like 3?

[honest summit]

Maybe the inner are the friends Pablo we Made along the way

[coral gorge]

also tbh im kinda disappointed/suprised E2 wasnt the deepest mission

like you really would expect it to be that

but instead its just KDS depth

[honest summit]

The R8 depth is weird tho

It ascends instead of descending

[coral gorge]

yeah it bounces a lot to fit both teams

I still stand by my idea that E2 should be us going into the Inner, turning something on down there and then gunning it to KDS Deep

ehhh maybe in GTFO 2

[honest summit]

We need KDS even deeper

[cold sphinx]

WHO?

[honest summit]

Asked

[gilded trench]

Does the game take place, I don't know, for no specific reason at all
Somewhere that's "in the middle of the Pacific ocean"

[royal crow]

In México

The Yucatán Península

The game takes place there

[gilded trench]

Alright, thanks

[topaz pebble]

Why some terminals in game can teleport to other membrane ? no need median to connect.
Some must use jump gate with projector.

[honest summit]

The difference is that the big TP room does a Matter Wave jump, using the datacubes teleporting you to abspecific place

While the Terminals and some other actions are Matter Wave collapses that Take you to random places

Why does it happen? Idfk lmao, Warden fucking around with shiny aah crystals

I Bet we have Gordon Freeman somewhere in the facility

[topaz pebble]

Matter wave collapse ? sorry I m so new about the lore.

[honest summit]

Imagine it Like the cascade resonance from half Life. Not exactly the Same, but very Close to it

[topaz pebble]

ahh..... sorry 😂

the projector who built it? from log there were people discovered and touched it then they disappeared .
so we did not build it?

[honest summit]

In R6 There are logs of people who designed the datacubes , Projektor and the Warp Gate, But i dont have their Name from the top of my hand

The Projektor Uses a Crystal from extraterrestial origin

I assume its from the presumed Alien ship that was discovered during digging

[royal crow]

The Collectors built it

They were Aliens that crashed into earth

[topaz pebble]

So the complex is alien ship ?

[royal crow]

No

The Complex was built to mine iridium
Then they discovered the Alien ship

[topaz pebble]

And the virus was in that ship then outbreak ?

[royal crow]

Yup

[topaz pebble]

Can you explain this , why some terminal can teleport even no datacube ? I think first time was R6 ?

[royal crow]

Those terminals were conected in a way to Alpha outposts in Destination
Most likely due to the nature of the worldlines and Matter wave projector and the constant use of the MWP causes the worldlines to collapse into esch other, teleporting everyone or everything

[topaz pebble]

So the terminal and Alpha outpost is the same membrane ?

[royal crow]

No

Our Earth and Destination are in different membranes

[topaz pebble]

So you will say some terminal is special that connect to other membrane with just type spectific command and then teleport with out median?

[royal crow]

I wouldnt say a command only
But more like there is a tether and the terminals are used to control such tether

They used something similar for the EF01 Expedition

[topaz pebble]

There is method explain, how can they tie the terminals between membranes?

[royal crow]

Idk
Thats above my pay grade lol

[topaz pebble]

or they built in coordinate

[royal crow]

Hm?

Cubix is here
Good

Another lore nerd

[coral gorge]

Probay just a result of R8 being super fucked up wordline wise, so shit just happens randomly

[topaz pebble]

I mean the terminals was buit in with coordinate

ahhh

[royal crow]

We can also see terminals tied in R6 and R7

How do You think we come back to garganta

[coral gorge]

warden actually doing shit right

for once

[royal crow]

The warden: i think i forgot someone

[coral gorge]

Biocom: if you forgot it, then it wasnt important

the best kso squad screaming on destination

[royal crow]

THAT WOULD MAKE A GOOD MEME

[topaz pebble]

So confused data cube projector and jump gate is ok , but the terminals... how

[royal crow]

They were made to establish communications between Garganta and Destination

And using their knowledge on Alien shit and worldlines they managed to make them

Honestly @eternal talon can give a more acurrate and detailed answer

[topaz pebble]

without any median

[royal crow]

(if there is one)

[royal crow]

By median you mean something in bewteen that connects both?

[topaz pebble]

yes

sorry my English is not good

[royal crow]

Then something like the tether the Expedition teams used to "return" to garganta would be the median

I guess they used something similar

[topaz pebble]

you mean when we finish the expedition , that last scan ?

[royal crow]

No

By tether i mean something that connects the person with their worldlines when traveling other worldline
Allowing them to return to their worldline

But that didnt worked all the time

Just look at how EF01 ended

And we almost end in the same situation as them

[topaz pebble]

So they made data cube to solve this ? possible?

[royal crow]

The data cubes were found in the Alien ship

They were made to control the MWP by the Aliens

Allowing the users to teleport where they want

The MWP needs 3 data cubes to succesfully teleport someone where they want

[topaz pebble]

So we did not make it but we understand the cube how its work

[royal crow]

The data cubes are coordinates

[topaz pebble]

even re-coordinate those

[royal crow]

We use especial terminals to delete those cordinates in the data cubes in R8

THEN

We use the data from project insight of other worldlines to get the coordinates to another worldline

Each membrane/world has different coordinates

[topaz pebble]

ahh that farm

This game should be made Series

[warped bloom]

Should

[eternal talon]

what?

im confused.

The complex sits above an alien ship that crashed millions of years ago.

the ship crashed because the virus and the parasite broke out of containment and killed the crew.

^ this kind of stuff is easily covered just by reading the for dummies doc in the pins of this channel

terminals cant teleport you between dimensions... they are just computers.
what i assume you are referring to is r6cx,
but that is mostly just due to matter wave shenanigans.
for years of misuse with the alien device, a whole bunch of worldlines have slowly begun to merge together <thats what r8 is>

we dont have an answer for whats going on other than "worldline spaghetti", but no, it wouldnt just be the random desktop computers around garganta causing it...

[coral gorge]

i think they more meant R8B2 shit with the crystal terminals

[honest summit]

Tbh the R8B2 objektive Just doesnt make sense

We have to wipe the datacubes Clean with strong electromagnetic fields by... Interacting with Broken Terminals and doing Scans inside the McDonald's playground?

The wiping itself probably Happens in Alpha one on the Terminals and the Scans are Just the triggered Alarm, but its lame how you do it with Just Terminal commands

[raw terrace]

i don't think the degausser terminals are the broken ones, more so the ones in alpha

we just tp with the broken ones like we did with the bulkhead dc, i guess it's not the things themselves tping us but an abnormality that occurs

[honest summit]

Thinking about it, why does Warden have the Info on Henrikson that He is specifically a Hacker, even though during the time He worked as an Ingenieur

While He was Not placed into an HSU for treason against His Corporate Overlords like Bishop

So what If, He was working in counter Intel an was the one who caught Bishop?

[coral gorge]

i always thought it was data from a diff wordline

and scheaffer mistook it

[raw terrace]

the warden classified them as an engineer as shown by bx
I need a uh— a programmer, uhh like Bishop? Yes, like Bishop! Was he a programmer? Bishop.. hacker? That's a programmer, right? Yes, yes, a hacker, yes. Ermm.. Christi, no, Fortuna— no, not you. Henriksson? Yes, Henriksson, computer science, yes. At Munich, is that good? As good as Bishop?

well i guess not the warden but

the files before the warden

[honest summit]

So Shaeffer being delusional and Not smart Like Always? Shame

Imagine a worldline where Shaeffer does Not fuck Up Maddox's unseal, for him to create a Sniper buff

[fresh gyro]

hacker is not a cool word

[meager kestrel]

is there a lore reason for why the characters have to wear masks

some of them look like gas masks

but obviously dont function as one as we can see with infection fog

[coral gorge]

Maybe they protect from some other substances in the air or were used to sorta conceal the identity of KSOs

but i dont think we have a definitive answer

[meager kestrel]

why would their identities need to be concealed lmao

[meager kestrel]

protection may also be a part of it

like as light armor

[coral gorge]

I mean some were ex-employees

plus kovac did all sorta shady stuff

We have logs of KSOs searching through peoples rooms and installing spyware

all while refusing to say their names or anything

[honest summit]

We do be Roaming down in a dusty Mine, i would assume that its there to Filter Out dust particles

[meager kestrel]

true

i guess they arent good enough to filter infection fog

[honest summit]

Also since its so deep, there might be Not much oxigen. That would explain the Gas Tanks that we have as backpacks

[meager kestrel]

oh i never noticed that actually

[warped bloom]

Well as long as the ac is on

[honest summit]

Seeing how dust Just sits Up in the Air, its definitelly Not moving

I think its only R4E1 where we actually have a strong current flowing through the air

[warped bloom]

What about rain falling down the elevator

[honest summit]

I dont See how it Could move CO2 Out of the mine

[warped bloom]

It makes a current

[honest summit]

I dont believe that it will be strong enough to ventilate the entire complex

[warped bloom]

I mean bare minimum

[honest summit]

Although, in R8E1 there is a burning fire, so some oxigen is present. Idfk another Plot hole

[warped bloom]

The only explanations are that the ac has partial function and maybe theres some part of the facility with an abundance of flora

[honest summit]

True, but in a Lot of places it is Out of Order and Has to be restarted. Would be lame If we dropped in Just to suffocate.

[next scroll]

maybe somekind of O2 leakage, idfk

[warped bloom]

Maybe theres an oxygen storage somewhere and its leaking

[solar nova]

I mean, gen clusters and some commands indicate that there's clearly some kind of ventillation.

Also, gardens exists

[raw terrace]

my headcanon is masks are for comms, biocom huds with the ammo and stuff and maybe some protection for sleepers/infection

the last one with them being not so great, but better than just going completely uncovered

and keeping dust from the eyes

[warped bloom]

Mother lore ?

Pmom lore?

[raw terrace]

they birth

[warped bloom]

What about the sacks in the mom.room

[cold sphinx]

You know snatchers

only they can snatch ppl and stick em there for conversions

cause you dont know how the normal prey that either is dead or trapped inside that huge body of theirs

relatively speakin they could just form a bio bag in the mean time the said target is in them

or they get help making one

Do yall think the potato is just a kraken that never got its wings?

[raw terrace]

they dont look too much alike

[graceful bolt]

so does the game ever show sign of the prisoner before us or are we the first ever patch of prisoner sent down

[raw terrace]

based on the comms seems like theres other groups that go and die
and some missions hint at other gruops to like r6c3, in which we are a diversion for another undisclosed objective

so yes theres other groups runnin around, us we are just too good and never die

[graceful bolt]

hm, are the hint of a another group of prisoner dwell at the same time as us

[steel spire]

In R8 you'll see plenty of that

[graceful bolt]

So what about r12345 ?

Is it like some kind of a side job that only we the main prisoner characters do

I remember someone said that 1 of the run down is to get more prisoner

[royal crow]

R5E1

We basically give access to the Warden to KDS Deep

So he can get more prisioners

[royal crow]

Yes R5B4 and R6C3 we act as a distraction while other team do some shit

[eternal talon]

the kraken, like the floaters, aren't and never were human.

[eternal talon]

hundreds. the warden has access to ~15,000-24,000 KSOs

(though those are rough baseless estimates, as the total number it had, with zero deaths pre-collapse or during, would be... 32,000?

i dont remember the exact number

iirc it was 8k outside KDS-DEEP and 24k inside

[eternal talon]

well the teams in r8 are us... so its a bit different in that regard. r6c1 was us working as a distraction for another team, though.

[loud urchin]

r6c1 was us getting data cubes, think you've confused it for another mission

[raw terrace]

it was c3

[warped bloom]

browhat

[eternal talon]

Have you not played r8 to completion?

[warped bloom]

nope

[eternal talon]

The entire story of gtfo is based around an infinite multiverse

[warped bloom]

yea ik

[eternal talon]

R8 is a bunch of them being slammed together

First half you play as the ALT// rundown squad, second half you play as the squad from the original rundowns

[warped bloom]

r8 is both ? or all of the universes

[royal crow]

[eternal talon]

No... it's like five or six different main ones (different squads including dead), destination, and the nightmare worldline

Basically the matter wave projector collapsing a bunch of the ones it previously visited into a single spaghetti

(The MWP was malfunctioning, or we were using it improperly since all the way back with Insight pre-collapse)

[cunning light]

It is literally the meaning behind Dauda's voice-over during the R8 trailer

WE as players incarnate the different teams

Which I find quite poetic

[eternal talon]

R8 is the end result of a mile's worth of glitches that kept building and building and building until r8 reached total file corruption, so to say

Every time we restart is just another worldline

[cunning light]

In one of them you are actually married to Pablo.

[royal crow]

This reminds me a lot of Destiny 2

[eternal talon]

The og squad didn't make their own fate... they just were the canonically perfect squad, amongst the known multiverse

[royal crow]

Eeeeh

I wasnt talking about that at all

[eternal talon]

Then I need some further specification, sorry.

[royal crow]

no

Cho said "We as players incarnate the different teams"
Which reminds me about the Destiny lore where the players are actually part of the lore and world of the game

And by players i mean the people that play the game

[eternal talon]

Eh, I'm not quite sure that we do

Our deaths and failed expeditions may be, but r8e2 is still a playable mission, and we win that one

[royal crow]

We are just too good

[eternal talon]

Well, as much as dying a slow and painful death on a previously clean and healthy world could be "winning"

[royal crow]

I'm pretty sure My failed R8E2 attempt where i woke up 6 scouts in 2 mins is canon in another worldline

[eternal talon]

In infinity, everything is certain.

Any chance greater than 0% is 100%

somewhere

It'd just also take you an infinite amount of time to find that worldline amongst all the others

Though... an infinite number of worldlines where that is the case, and an infinite number of worldlines to get through to find that one... this is starting to hurt my brain...

There are an infinite number to go through, but there are also an infinite number of the one you are looking for...

"does a set of all sets contain itself?"

The chance is either certain or 0%, even when dealing with guarantees I think... I'm not sure.

You'd have to infinitely luck out...

[royal crow]

what

[cunning light]

Never played the Destiny games, so I would not have the reference, unfortunately :(

[eternal talon]

The infinite number of all worldlines is bigger than the infinite number of all worldlines (containing what you want)

[cunning light]

Technically it is. Same as our first attempt at R5E1 when we all died to a single spitter while trying to sneak in on a Giant in the second zone.

[eternal talon]

Some infinities are larger than others, I'm just not sure how to calculate that into you finding what you were looking for if actively searching

[royal crow]

LMAO

[royal crow]

[eternal talon]

It is a love hate. I would not really reccomend getting involved in them now if you don't already have a history with them. Bungie has become increasingly predatory over the past decade, including removing paid content.

[royal crow]

unfortunately

they actually delivered with the final shape

[eternal talon]

For example, I pre-ordered destiny 2 for $100. Today, none of that content is still in the game

Even pre-order rewards were eventually re-added as random drops

[royal crow]

you pre-ordered a F2P game

get rekt

(i did too)

(back on 2017)

[eternal talon]

And it's amazing, I finished it this week. I just still can't recommend getting into destiny as a new player at this point

TFS turned it from a 2/10 to a 4/10 for a new player

But there are still far better things out there for your money if not already invested

For example, Outer Wilds.

[royal crow]

but new players have literally 0 content

🤨

[eternal talon]

(You can jump right into TFS and get a high light level care package)

It comes included in the ridiculous pricetag

[hybrid jolt]

What tf are the things that shooters shoot?
Is it ever explained how the lil balls that the shooter variants shoot actually damage the player?
Its obvious with the strikers who do physical damage by hitting you with the tongue, but with the shooters i never know how little balls of light hurt me

[warped bloom]

why do schaeffer's voicelines keep cutting off brruh

[safe sail]

if you wake something up during the voice line it will get cut off

[raw terrace]

on rundown 8 if u aggro an enemy ill cut off

[safe sail]

if you want to listen to it you have to stay still and do nothing

[warped bloom]

i see

[fresh gyro]

lore cancel any%

it also only happens for client im pretty sure

[warped bloom]

does r8a2 secondary have any lore significance

Tf the ending meam

[raw terrace]

its just aa what if

[royal crow]

We play as a experiment from some scientist in Nightmare Dimension

It really doesnt mean anything at all

[fresh gyro]

"some scientist"

[royal crow]

I forgot his name

[fresh gyro]

you goober what

[royal crow]

IFO

Can i ask You something?

[fresh gyro]

what

[royal crow]

|| are You gay?||

[fresh gyro]

you goober

this is lore chat

[royal crow]

Ill take that as a yes

[fresh gyro]

i mean
