You are a prisoner and the warden a collective of minds also reffered to as an entity
have sent various prisoners into this broken down old as fuck facility and now its our turn to go in there collect valuable resources so they can maybe use what turned/created all those mother fuckers as a biological weapon or collect valuable resources that are hidden in there
To be sold on the black market or used for their own gain etc
Or even their objective is to clear the whole place out so they can collenize/change the entire complex into their own facility
although all this Information about what they want/what they are doing is speculation

i quests this enemy's have some infected worm virus in side of them, they look human but not any more so, my theory is we are going to get some thing so this infected worm virus can't go to the surface. that my theory...

cerulean forum Jul 25, 2019, 7:54 PM

@sand pawn A very good theory but maybe virus is a alien like thing from the eggs or a cocoon used to transform humans

I'm very curious about the story behind the Complex and why there are all these The Thing-like monsters in it.

#

I seriously can't help but to imagine that they found something deep underground that's not unlike that alien organism and it got loose.

sand pawn Jul 26, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

i think the hole on the ground dose have some ancient lore in it , like the theory i say, this scientist find some thing in it but... it hard to know. i watch the trailer again and again and the boss one and all other look like human, maybe the deep under ground is a area 51, it may be true the some alien type have virus in them to effect the human body, or they find a artefact.

there is so much theory i have but... that all i can say guys, wish one do you pick? 😑 edit, sorry of my english

i maybe pick the alien type have virus

And theres only one button saying “contact” connected with an Email adress

#

@west snow

west snow Aug 7, 2019, 11:28 PM

#

oh so that's what that page source belongs too

#

maybe there is a key word or phrase that's needed to get a response?

#

I was curious what Santonian meant and this is what i found:

#

The Santonian is an age in the geologic timescale or a chronostratigraphic stage. It is a subdivision of the Late Cretaceous epoch or Upper Cretaceous series. It spans the time between 86.3 ± 0.7 mya (million years ago) and 83.6 ± 0.7 mya. The Santonian is preceded by the Coniacian and is followed by the Campanian.[2]

#

maybe that's relevant to something?

tall anchor Aug 7, 2019, 11:58 PM

#

yeah

#

I've been over this before, but here we go

#

The GTFO Complex is supposedly set under the Chixiculb crater in Mexico, and the crater was made by an asteroid that supposedly ended the dinosaurs.

#

So, it would make sense for the depth of where the complex is, to be somehow related to the Santonian era.

#

Or, maybe there's something in the Santonian age that is important for The Complex to be running off of, or make it economically viable for it to be created.

#

Side note, we kinda need a pin of Slewey's original comment about it being under the crater, but it doesn't super-ly matter.

Put them together, and you are led to Chicxulub (demon tick)

The name Chicxulub is Yucatec Maya language, where ch’ik means "flea" or "tick", and xulub’ means "devil, demon, or horns"
From there we theorize the underground aspect of the game connects to the nearby Chicxulub Crater drilling site

I mean it is an Interesting/important part of the game

so it makes sense

but really the original one should have been pinned

Wait, the pin was removed, I saw it

Yeah I saw that, I checked the pinned messages, and it just dissapeared the moment Mirrors editet the message, now it's back there, I was just a bit confused, I thought I witnessed a pin getting removed in real time. Now, we got that figured it, let's keep the channel for lore chat.

a good route to take for possible dlc is other dig sites around the world

#

with new infrastructure, enemies, etc

tall anchor Aug 11, 2019, 5:56 AM

#

That would be interesting

#

but I don’t think they’ll really shift from “the complex” setting too much

warm canyon Aug 14, 2019, 10:24 PM

#

So about the origin of the monsters...

tall anchor Aug 14, 2019, 10:26 PM

#

Yeah?

#

I've got a headcannon that they came from something in the asteroid that made the Chixiculb Crater, probably wrong though, seems too obvious.

warm canyon Aug 14, 2019, 10:29 PM

#

I recently watched an anime called "Made in Abyss" and was quite pleased with its similarities to that of GTFO. (I don't want to spoil the story, so please don't discuss spoilers). In the anime, we are first introduced to the concept of a "curse of the abyss" which is some sort of inexplicable force that hurts people trying to ascend from the abyss. I was thinking, what if there is something in the complex of GTFO that is producing a sort of "force" that is responsible for mutating the people who once lived/worked in the complex?

tall anchor Aug 14, 2019, 10:30 PM

#

Well, we have some evidence that one of the prisoners owned the main company down there.

#

There's also the point of "why aren't the main protagonists/prisoners infected yet"

#

So, really, it can't be a force unless it's some sort of slow acting stuff.

#

Some evidence that would turn this upside down would be if we could see Mr. Bishop's office (the prisoner who owned the company/website thing)

#

Although, I'm not sure, the obvious choice would be to go for a virus type thing.

#

There's also infrastructure based on containing these alien things, so IMO, something went wrong, althought that's a little cliche.

warm canyon Aug 14, 2019, 10:35 PM

#

lol, so it's either some kind of T-virus or some kind of marker responsible for the monsters.

tall anchor Aug 14, 2019, 10:35 PM

#

Maybe, but let me grab those screenshots that show the infrastructure

#

Here's two for now, I do need to fill up my folder with the video stuff.

warm canyon Aug 14, 2019, 10:36 PM

#

Oh, how interesting. Yes, it definitely looks like some experimentation was going on in the complex before hand.

tall anchor Aug 14, 2019, 10:37 PM

#

Yeah, hence the thoughts about it either being a virus that one of the scientists got or one of the containers burst.

warm canyon Aug 14, 2019, 10:38 PM

#

Or there's the possibility of an alien parasite that the scientist tried to utilize as a "symbiote" of sorts.

#

I'm actually leaning towards the alien parasite at this point, considering the fact that the devs have described the "potato blood" as being parasitic eggs.

tall anchor Aug 14, 2019, 10:40 PM

#

Well, I don't think that they've directly said eggs apart from once in that tweet that I found.

warm canyon Aug 14, 2019, 10:41 PM

#

I remember them saying something like "eww, they're some sort of parasitic eggs!"

tall anchor Aug 14, 2019, 10:42 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot about that

#

I'll have a look in a bit

west snow Aug 15, 2019, 1:47 AM

#

ah right

#

hold up why do mods have to sign a NDA if you know as much as us........ suspicious

tall anchor Aug 15, 2019, 1:49 AM

#

It's because they could be getting extra screenshots from the developers.

#

Let's say Slewey PM'd me a screenshot (he didn't)

#

If I go and leak that, and it makes gtfo lose sales

#

it's technically his fault for leaking something he shouldn't have, and could cause issues for the developer team

#

at least, that's what I've read into it

frail pollen Aug 15, 2019, 1:50 AM

#

We're under NDA as some aspects we may learn sooner than you guys, such as when a newsletter might go out, when the alpha will drop so we can prepare for activity, etc (we don't know alpha date, i promise you and that's not the nda talking) but things like that

tall anchor Aug 15, 2019, 1:50 AM

#

D0c might have a better answer

#

Yeah, there we go

west snow Aug 15, 2019, 1:52 AM

#

wouldn't expect anyone to have an alpha date i don't even think the devs have that knowledge

tall anchor Aug 15, 2019, 1:52 AM

#

I would expect that they know a week that they're planning on

#

If they didn't, that would be a huge yikes

west snow Aug 15, 2019, 1:54 AM

#

the impression i got is that is more of a "its done when we finish it however long that takes"

tall anchor Aug 15, 2019, 1:54 AM

#

I mean, that's fair

#

But they have to have plans and stuff, I don't think that you can really release a game with no plan at all

#

At the least, they've got a general outline

hello I would like to enquire as the the current mining venture you are engaged in and the lack of information about the mines operations and purpose available. this lack of communication has raised concerns about the mine and the potential risk of damage to the natural ecosystem in the surrounding environment. I would like to ask if you would be willing to give and official statement answering the many questions this has raised.

And yes I dis write that email and several others

indigo gale Aug 15, 2019, 12:24 PM

#

Do you guys think its more likely its some sort virus/parasite that's the reason for these mutants in the facility in GTFO, hence why the protagonists are wearing gasmasks?

toxic sand Aug 15, 2019, 12:26 PM

#

Could be. But wearing a gaz mask could also mean a security measure for unknown environment. We know there zone with poisonnous air / lack of O2.

We are of no use to the warden dead, even if we are expendable.

indigo gale Aug 15, 2019, 12:27 PM

#

Yeah, that makes sense too.

#

At the same time though, I'd be more comfortable going around in a full on hazmat suit, preferably one that's armored, if the area is contaminated with who knows what else along with the poisonous air and such.

shut mountain Aug 15, 2019, 12:37 PM

#

My theory is that there was something underground that they wanted to extract and experience with, however, this thing was more than likely something that they did not conteminate properly (In my theory probably a unknown virus that is not from Earth), or someone made an oopsie that later caused a domino effect, infecting all around them, which later made the underground complex a living hell. But I also really like the theory of just hidden experiments going incredibly wrong like that tends to happen 👀 I can't wait for the game to come out and see what exactly is going on tbh

indigo gale Aug 15, 2019, 12:38 PM

#

That does sound very likely yeah.

#

Wouldn't be surprised if it is as a lot of people suspect that it is something not from this planet, which makes it even more like The Thing, minus the shapeshifting alien and paranoia of course.

plot twist

tall anchor Aug 25, 2019, 4:14 PM

so given that Simon in the Dev documentary says “who are the warden”

#

and it being obviously scripted to a large extent

#

the warden is no one man

#

Governmental entity?

ornate zephyr Aug 25, 2019, 4:15 PM

Could be a misspoken English word as well

tall anchor Aug 25, 2019, 4:16 PM

ornate zephyr Aug 25, 2019, 4:16 PM

#

He very well could mean who is the warden

tall anchor Aug 25, 2019, 4:16 PM

#

but I’d assume they’d really script out this

#

my instincts are to agree with you

#

but it doesn’t quite seem right

#

especially given the singular references to “the entity that is the warden”

Both

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 4:36 PM

#

Here is fine since it relates to lore.

winter plume Aug 26, 2019, 4:38 PM

#

I bet the beasts are humans themselves owo

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 4:39 PM

#

Yeah tbh my headcannon is that they're some sort of virus

#

Like, i've got some evidence to back up my claims

#

I just can't remember where

winter plume Aug 26, 2019, 4:42 PM

#

They could be like the little crawlers from ‘Until Dawn’

#

It’s said in the game if you get to the book part, possibly after or before deciding whether to kill someone that they themselves are humans without internal organs

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

So, I was thinking, since GTFO predominantly takes place underground, each of the playable characters could be considered a "Geologic Tactical Force Operative." Lol, just had to get that out there. 😄

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

I mean they’re all non military

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

Yet, they function pretty much as a military unit

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:06 PM

#

and specifically not a well prepared task force, in anyway

#

that’s true

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:07 PM

#

I was thinking this mainly because all they seem to do is shoot to kill and grab stuff to go.

#

None of them are actually repairing mechanisms or doing anything technical beyond basic military stuff.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:08 PM

#

I think there will be evidence of the characters not having similar training to military characters

#

but yeah, most definitely not a task force and they’re untrained for this stuff

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:09 PM

#

How well do you have to be trained to be a task force?

#

Especially if you're a prisoner?

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

The prisoners are essentially expendable assets thrown into the Complex to recover valuable items.

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:13 PM

#

But can they be considered a task force of some kind?

#

Since they're carrying out a "task."

#

And they are using force to do it?

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

technically yes

#

but they’re most definitely untrained specifically for this task

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:14 PM

#

Task force is generally a group of highly trained experts

#

The prisoners are neither

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

point being that Bishop was either a web designer or a ceo

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

So, they are severely untrained Geologic Task Force Operatives.

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:15 PM

#

I mean you can assume that's what you think GTFO stands for.

#

That's just speculation.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

ooooooo

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

But we know they're not highly trained.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

I didn’t pick up on that

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

They have no military background.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:16 PM

#

yeah, what slewey said

#

Quote from Simon being something along the lines of “non military”

#

and how they’re trying to see how this relationship pans out given that they’re all forced to do this stuff

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:17 PM

#

Also lore wise the reason you start out with a limited arsenal is you need to prove yourself to the Warden you can survive and retrieve the artifacts.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

oh nice

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

Since people routinely get killed

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

Do you know a source for that point?

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:18 PM

#

They're not going to spend money and resources on prisoners who are going to be killed on their first expedition.

#

Simon said that.

#

I can't get the exact quote but you can ask him.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

like where

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

He can verify it.

tall anchor Aug 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

oh no, I believe you

#

I just wondered if it was in a interview I’d missed

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

I think he said it in discord

#

it was awhile back.

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

So, you start off as a rookie, untrained Geologic Task Force Operative and have to prove yourself to the Warden to rise up in the ranks and receive better training/gear.

pliant quail Aug 26, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

Basically.

#

Gameplay wise you gather resources to expand your items and weapons. But the lore is there to explain why you start out with basic stuff.

#

For the sake of explanation i guess

warm canyon Aug 26, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

We all have to start somewhere...

fathom cloud Aug 27, 2019, 11:31 AM

Geological Task Force Operative: that sounds COOL, also really possible for the lore.

tall anchor Sep 3, 2019, 1:51 PM

Yeah, they’re not military at all

#

they’ve got no background in this stuff: see one of the prisoners might have been a web developer/ceo of whatever the hell the complex was built for

lost ore Sep 3, 2019, 1:52 PM

#

yeah i read something like that.

tall anchor Sep 3, 2019, 1:53 PM

#

People also get routinely killed down in the complex

lost ore Sep 3, 2019, 1:53 PM

#

they are expendables, i know that.

#

but the team we play, seems the most capable of all them.

tall anchor Sep 3, 2019, 1:55 PM

#

I think they’ve been at it the longest lore wise, but then again, I don’t think an expedition has been completed by any non-developer, so it’s more of a specific character rather than a large group

lost ore Sep 3, 2019, 2:11 PM

#

i just want to know the origin of the creatures. the place, having its location at the meteor site, maybe was first used as a mining place, then the "bacteria" was discovered, and after that, a laboratory took place later. at least is my suggestion. after that something went really bad.

#

also, it could have been unleashed on purpose.

tall anchor Sep 3, 2019, 2:21 PM

#

Don’t forget that the creatures aren’t alien, and are hinted to be humans/people affected by the virus

#

see the beginning of the trailer/name release thing to hear something about how the faces scare the main narrarator

#

Trailer narrative transcription:
“It comes every night without fail”
“There are different people every time”
“But I recognize them somehow”

“They’re screaming at me I don’t hear them but I know they are screaming”
“Such hate, and anger”
“I don’t know what I have done to them”
“They want me to feel what they feel”

“Then I wake up and I’m not sweating or screaming, I’m perfectly calm. I just open my eyes and I’m awake!”
“It’s not a nightmare, it’s just a part of me, who I am.”
I don’t fight it, I just, live around it”
-Dauda, the Nigerian character

pliant quail Sep 3, 2019, 3:09 PM

#

Task force makes no sense because its a bunch of prisoners with little training or expertise, task force is the complete opposite of that.

#

Prisoners are routinely sent in and killed before they complete their missions.

tall anchor Sep 3, 2019, 9:36 PM

@fathom cloud

#

it's here

fathom cloud Sep 3, 2019, 9:36 PM

#

How did I miss it

#

I’m ready to become sick the moment the alpha is released

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 4:42 AM

#

So guys, I really like my Geologic Task Force Operative idea, but I never considered the possibility that GTFO could actually be referring to the biological threat that is responsible for the monsters in-game.

#

With this in mind, GTFO could actually stand for something like a "Germinating Terra-Forming Organism."

#

Either that or it could be an acronym for a virtually endless list of possible chemical nomenclatures such as "Glycerol Tetra Formyl Oxide" (that's not a real compound, just an absurd example).

formal thunder Sep 4, 2019, 4:49 AM

#

Makes sense

#

And sounds very nice

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 5:01 AM

#

So, I also looked up the definition of a task force and Google says it's "an armed force organized for a special operation" or "a unit specially organized for a task."

#

Note that it emphasizes "organized" but doesn't specify any "special training."

#

Sounds perfect for a game that emphasizes cooperation and "organization" between teammates.

tall anchor Sep 4, 2019, 5:05 AM

#

well you are alluding to them being “operatives” but then again the dictionary definition for that doesn’t have special training in it

#

I mean, just remember that they’ve got no training

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 5:06 AM

#

Yes, untrained, unskilled Geologic Task Force Operatives.

#

Also, what do you think of the "Germinating Terra-Forming Organism" hypothesis?

pliant quail Sep 4, 2019, 5:08 AM

#

I doubt there is any terraforming involved because they seem to breathe oxygen fine, so there's no point to it.

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 5:09 AM

#

Oh, so I can take off my gas mask?

pliant quail Sep 4, 2019, 5:09 AM

#

And they tolerate the environment fine.

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 5:14 AM

#

I remember the devs mentioning the possibility of the lack of oxygen, in some areas, as an added environmental hazard. Why would there be areas of the complex with no oxygen? Vacuum chambers? For what purpose? (other than certain chemical analyses of course).

pliant quail Sep 4, 2019, 5:20 AM

#

I assume some parts are in a state of disrepair or accidents happened that damaged certain areas.

#

Considering the complex was overrun by monsters it's safe to assume parts of the facility was damaged in the process.

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 5:22 AM

#

Ah, life support systems malfunctions, excellent.

lilac island Sep 4, 2019, 5:25 AM

#

Also ain’t the facility deep underground? So maybe

#

breathing might get harder for the player? Idk I’m not too smart on how the lore works

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 5:40 AM

#

Technically, the lower in the atmosphere that you are, the easier it is to diffuse oxygen into the membranes of your lungs (due to increased air pressure). However, many professional underground installations require special structures or air pump systems to ensure that fresh air from the surface is constantly flowing throughout their complexes. If any of those systems become compromised, then the subsequent lack of air quality could become an added environmental hazard.

#

There have also been studies showing that staying deep underground for long periods of time can negatively effect one's health in subtle but noticeable ways.

#

In GTFO, the ill effects of staying underground for too long become very apparent.

lilac island Sep 4, 2019, 5:52 AM

#

Yeah,understandable

#

I just know it gets harder to breath due to some news events I learned years ago about miners being trapped and such for periods of time

waxen birch Sep 4, 2019, 6:21 AM

#

I wonder if GTFOs lore will tie in with Payday's mysteries

warm canyon Sep 4, 2019, 6:23 AM

#

So, we've discussed the Geologic Task Force Operatives and even the possible origins/mechanisms of the monster infestation; but, what about the technology? I know the devs mentioned that the game is "sci-fi" but how far sci-fi? What kind of sci-fi technologies can we expect in relation to the complex itself? Is the Warden responsible for the technology that appears in the complex or is the Warden looking to steal that technology for itself/themselves?

#

What if the Warden IS the technology?

sick basin Sep 12, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

*Are

#

All references to the Warden are plural. So what if the Warden ARE the technology?

#

Doubtful. The Warden are very understandable, from a human perspective. They have human-congruent identities, motivations, behavior.

tall anchor Sep 12, 2019, 9:38 PM

#

What if they’re a governmental organization?

sick basin Sep 12, 2019, 9:39 PM

#

that seems more likely, but that implies oversight from somewhere else - unless they're a 'black' agency. I think it's more probably that the Warden are a private group.

Just to set expectations, Matze has only played the game way back when at a convention. Anyone that says they are playing it, playing some form of it like a bug tester, etc is most likely trolling. We don't know how long an expedition will take, only the devs do at this point 😛

winter plume Sep 19, 2019, 4:36 AM

#

Isn’t GTFO still TBD

#

But yes, because of what happened before, the fact it’s a 9 man team, and there’s 4 parts until early access, it’s pretty much TBD

pliant quail Sep 19, 2019, 7:43 AM

#

So to clarify what TB meant, there's still an Alpha and Beta planned it's just that while the roadmap shows there's two Betas in the pipeline it's not guaranteed that will occur.

Meaning if Beta 1 is a big success and fixes most issues, then a second beta MIGHT be skipped and goes straight into Early Access.

I know, you might be thinking "who the fuck is this retard ConfusedUlf "

It must be that Warden wants something from the underground depths

The purpose is to retrieve items from down there, specifically for the warden

winter plume Sep 29, 2019, 11:24 PM

#

Maybe a container broke open and got most of the workers

#

Maybe an object was discovered, which is more dangerous than anything known to man so he wants to contain it and keep it stored somewhere else where no one can absolutely find it nor steal it

#

It could be anything really

coarse tapir Sep 29, 2019, 11:25 PM

being fair I'm gonna stop the meme, either they're finding the root cause for it, they're actually looking for something (or it could be a good easter "egg" haha) or it's just that they're trying to research what these monsters are capable of

but I'm gonna say we will be able to use ReversedConfusedUlf and to meme actual GTFO lore

winter plume Sep 29, 2019, 11:26 PM

It doesn't have to be one thing

There can be multiple reasons

After all, it's an underground facility or mining operation, and something was stored in there

A little while after whatever was needed was stored in somewhere, someone fucked up horribly on transporting an object or found a far dangerous mineral that cannot even be possibly made by just earth elements, possibly outer space element

#

It caused the monsters, which as normal as any living thing does, breed more. This is the reason to the big ass horde you see in the trailers

I liked the pinned meteor idea the most;

But instead of the Meteor bringing the Alien, it was simply done to damage the earth to make it easier for the Alien to escape. But mostly failed only weakening the earth a little.

And 🌍 became its final prison, which later formed around its original prison and became earth we now know. And the drilling was the last bolt out of the door.

That allowed it some influence outside of it's prison.

#

So is there a backstory to GTFO or is it a more theory based focus on gameplay kinda thing?

pastel silo Oct 9, 2019, 8:26 PM

#

well the Prisoners are in a complex, the complex is on the ground of the Santonian facility (which is a maybe a real company in mexico?). you are held as prisoners and have to do what ever the warden needs, so far as i know the story about that

#

i could be wrong tho

river mantle Oct 9, 2019, 8:26 PM

#

so basically

#

it's g-mod prison

#

but with like, aliens

pastel silo Oct 9, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

well the thing is, i played with simon last year on gamescom, the layouts are changing from every session

#

so it is compleatly random to obtain stuff

river mantle Oct 9, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

i like that

pastel silo Oct 9, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

it is more random thatn payday2

river mantle Oct 9, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

one of my favorite parts of payday, makes shit more replayable

pastel silo Oct 9, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

that what he told me

fickle canyon Oct 9, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

ok so i got the basic layout of the game but i meant like is there going to be information like how you got there, why the Warden is sending you down there, like specifics pretty more

#

*much

pastel silo Oct 9, 2019, 8:28 PM

#

so far i cannot answer this question, i would pass that to a dev (if they wanna answer it)

river mantle Oct 9, 2019, 8:28 PM

#

youre a prisoner for commiting the crime of uhh.....

I’m trying to put more time into the gamepedia wiki

I’ve not done much, just made a couple of the developer’s pages

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 10:05 PM

#

I'm very curious about what's going on in that teaser they've released.

#

Are the "Prisoners" kept in some sort of state of sleep until they're woken up, rather forcibly, for a cage drop into the Complex?

vapid prairie Oct 11, 2019, 10:06 PM

#

that's what it seems

#

to me at least

tall anchor Oct 11, 2019, 10:06 PM

#

maybe they’re just bodies

#

controlled by other people

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

Clones perhaps?

tall anchor Oct 11, 2019, 10:07 PM

#

idk

#

I don’t think so

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 10:07 PM

It all looks quite odd though, especially with the computer interface that they show at first.

Teaser Trailer narrative transcription:
“It comes every night without fail”
“There are different people every time”
“But I recognize them somehow”

“They’re screaming at me I don’t hear them but I know they are screaming”
“Such hate, and anger”
“I don’t know what I have done to them”
“They want me to feel what they feel”

“Then I wake up and I’m not sweating or screaming, I’m perfectly calm. I just open my eyes and I’m awake!”
“It’s not a nightmare, it’s just a part of me, who I am.”
I don’t fight it, I just, live around it”
-Dauda, the Nigerian character

vapid prairie Oct 11, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

it reminds me of something

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

So in other words we may be looking at that the four characters in the trailer are actually directly controlling these unlucky "Prisoners" in some sort of cyberpunk interface?

vapid prairie Oct 11, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

the cortex interface thing

tall anchor Oct 11, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

that’s the script of the teaser trailer

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 10:10 PM

#

It all reminds to me of Ghost in the Shell and other similar types of cyberpunk work where characters can be controlled remotely.

#

Also, Hydrostatis, that has to be the name of the "operating system" for this thing.

tall anchor Oct 11, 2019, 10:11 PM

#

idk

#

because you’re supposed to be retrieving a hydrostasis container

vapid prairie Oct 11, 2019, 10:11 PM

i want to know more about the world

god fucking damnit

toxic sand Oct 11, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

The system told you the prisoner is no ready for redeploy, and yet there a system override that throw you down into the complex.

tall anchor Oct 11, 2019, 10:14 PM

@indigo gale

📎 image0.png

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 10:14 PM

#

It is very possible that the "Prisoners" are in a form of stasis until they're brought out for the task of going down into the Complex.

#

And ah, I must have missed that.

#

I'm gonna hazard a guess that the Hydrostasis units are the liquid filled containers we've seen in some screenshots.

tall anchor Oct 11, 2019, 10:15 PM

#

Yeah

#

you’ve seen the one with the monster inside right?

#

^ this one

Gonna be interesting how we're supposed to extract those things.

“yo pop the lid on that bad boy”

idle crypt Oct 11, 2019, 10:36 PM

maybe in the "matrix", got a new player like candy out of the box

indigo gale Oct 11, 2019, 11:14 PM

#

Gotta say I really like the lo-fi style they're going for with the computer interfaces.

hardy ibex Oct 11, 2019, 11:44 PM

#

So I have a theory about the latest teaser for the vid on monday

#

It seems like the game could possibly function like Escape from Tarkov

#

You have the ability to upload your consciousness per se, the nural link. Up to a prisoner who is kept in those pods

#

Or you could have the possibility to insert as yourself, a much more capable dude, better stamina etc

#

but obviously if you die as you, I dunno, bad things

cold umbra Oct 12, 2019, 1:03 AM

#

Maybe if that dude dies. He gets turned into one of the mutants

#

And they act like the survivor zombies from l4d

#

But well..

#

I need to see some suggestions of debuff for that

fathom cloud Oct 12, 2019, 3:13 AM

#

What where they getting injected with when it said inject during the new trailer

hardy ibex Oct 12, 2019, 5:19 AM

#

@fathom cloud seems to me that it was referring to 'injecting' your mind into another body

full iris Oct 12, 2019, 12:17 PM

#

Yeah, I think Cortex Injection implies some sort of Avatar thing going on. Your mind being injected into Dauda's body or whatever.

indigo gale Oct 12, 2019, 12:22 PM

#

Or it could be Dauda who is getting his mind "injected" into someone else's body.

#

A Mirrored Yeehaw brought up about what Dauda said in the Game Awards trailer from 2017 yesterday.

full iris Oct 12, 2019, 12:26 PM

#

That could be, too. "There are different people every time, but I recognize them somehow" rather supports that.

#

Still... an Avatar type thing going on.

#

So the Hydrostasis Units we are retrieving are bodies for future expeditions. It all starts to make sense!

tranquil dome Oct 12, 2019, 12:34 PM

#

Its likely

#

however.. This thing, like the elevator shaft and all that, its much bigger that we actually thought

#

Good stuff

idle crypt Oct 12, 2019, 12:35 PM

#

and the choice of available characters depends on the number of mined hydrostasis?

tranquil dome Oct 12, 2019, 12:35 PM

#

I doubt it,

#

I think that just goes for the lore and story

#

don't think it has anything to do with "Oh, Since we extracted this guy, Imma take him cuz he has a better hat"

idle crypt Oct 12, 2019, 12:38 PM

#

but what we will get at expeditions, which will give improvements

tranquil dome Oct 12, 2019, 12:39 PM

#

new guns, attachments and all that

idle crypt Oct 12, 2019, 12:41 PM

#

because this is a very important point on which replayability depends

full iris Oct 12, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

The gear you equip is still "provided" by the Warden, it's just been upgraded by you as part of the gameplay process. And as Konficker states, is an important component to replayability. Not to mention survivability as you dig deeper into the complex.

indigo gale Oct 12, 2019, 12:50 PM

#

It'll be interesting to see what type of weapons we've get "provided" by the Warden as we upgrade.

toxic sand Oct 12, 2019, 1:08 PM

#

Soo.. you get injected into new body,everytime

#

Hence why they never show the prisoner face?!?

#

Always wearing a helmet

idle crypt Oct 12, 2019, 1:10 PM

#

yep... Always wearing a helmet and respirator (infection?)

indigo gale Oct 12, 2019, 1:12 PM

#

Yeah, don't forget that if you look in the teaser they released, you can see that the prisoner that's being "injected" into has got high infection.

#

Which probably means most, if not all, of the prisoners are infected to some degree by whatever is down there in the Complex.

idle crypt Oct 12, 2019, 1:17 PM

#

yes, but what does it affect, and the image of the brain on boot may be something like the level of madness

#

anyway damn interesting🙃

how do you get that

cerulean burrow Oct 12, 2019, 4:20 PM

I don't know when the delay was announced, but I do recall it being slated for "spring 2019"

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:20 PM

#

oh I see

#

well, T time can tick upwards

#

it’s t - pre launch, and then t+ after launch

cerulean burrow Oct 12, 2019, 4:21 PM

#

I've only ever seen T- tick down

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:23 PM

#

It’s “Mission Elapsed Time”

#

and shown in a t+ format

#

at least, that’s how NASA uses it

cerulean burrow Oct 12, 2019, 4:25 PM

#

yeah, in the video the time went from -32 to -34 so it's ticking the wrong way.

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:26 PM

#

the wrong way to indicate anticipation of a date, yes

#

the right way if we’re counting the total elapsed time since something happened

#

which is what I believe is what it is indicating

#

the minuses before the numbers are weird though

cerulean burrow Oct 12, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

could just be dashes, on second glance, nope

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

the thing is

#

it’s in the correct format to be a dns server address

#

well, almost

cerulean burrow Oct 12, 2019, 4:30 PM

#

Meanwhile the devs are sitting back thinking "Shit it's just some numbers, now we gotta make up some lore" 😆

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:31 PM

I think that it’s a total elapsed time since an the incident that made the monsters/since the monsters got loose

somewhere here

#

yeah could be the outbreak countdown - since the incident

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

so what the fuck happened in January

brazen path Oct 12, 2019, 4:35 PM

#

assuming the t is ticking up, it started about 23rd Jan

#

in real time

#

if that's the game incident time - then it's something else entirely

tall anchor Oct 12, 2019, 4:36 PM

#

It’s most definitely incident time

#

but the thing is

#

gtfo is set in the future

#

“The near future”

#

okay so I gotta attempt to make a breakdown of gtfo’s trailer don’t I

#

but the thing is

#

will I get in trouble for the music or not

formal thunder Oct 12, 2019, 6:58 PM

#

Okay so looking at the trailer again and again

#

The whole thing seems like that there is something implanted into their brains

#

could possibly be a "on/off" switch, they are being put to sleep when not needed, and on when it's action

#

I mean would make sense, that the lobby and menu looks like if it was inside a computer, not even on a screan, but inside the code or something

#

once you start that shit your characters suddenly wakes up and breathes heavily

indigo gale Oct 12, 2019, 7:21 PM

It makes me all the more eager to get the game once its out on Early Access.

#

I need to learn what its all about with the "Cortex Interface" and such.

stiff bluff Oct 12, 2019, 7:31 PM

#

ok "cortex interface injection", what does that sound like, VR simulation or something like the matrix

indigo gale Oct 12, 2019, 7:50 PM

#

I'm gonna say more like something for interfacing directly with people that perhaps have implants in their brain.

sly sluice Oct 12, 2019, 7:52 PM

#

perhaps they mean like a literal interface - bullet counter and stuff

#

and for communication with the base

fathom cloud Oct 13, 2019, 2:37 AM

#

the game has to come out in the next week or so

glossy cargo Oct 13, 2019, 2:52 AM

#

Not really the right place to discuss that matter (And I doubt it).

tall anchor Oct 13, 2019, 2:57 AM

#

I also doubt it, and would recommend #gtfo-chat for future points on the games release

lost ore Oct 13, 2019, 2:50 PM

#

mmm the concience theory is pretty accurate cause of the words of the previous trailer

#

maybe the charactters are in reality "stored" somehow as a form of DNA sample and injected into "shells" bodies, who are actual people in captivity.

indigo gale Oct 13, 2019, 3:36 PM

#

That's a pretty sound theory right there. Considering how advanced the tech looks, it wouldn't be out of the realms of possibility that they're able to "store" DNA samples of the characters for future use, in this case expeditions into the Complex.

polar forge Oct 14, 2019, 4:39 PM

#

that seems like a bit of a stretch though i got nothing of that sorts from what we saw, from what the text log scrolls in the recent trailer it just seems like all or at least the one in the trailer are prisoners infected with the virus and kept in hydro stasis until they are put to work for whatever reason.

jaunty steeple Oct 14, 2019, 4:50 PM

is there a wiki, and where can i go for consolidated media relating to the lore

holy shit

it is an infection

indigo gale Oct 14, 2019, 7:03 PM

the asteroid

mmm but then what is Dauda talking about?

he’s talking about seeing the people that are infected tbh

lost ore Oct 14, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

"different people everytime..."

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 8:20 PM

#

or he could be talking about who you take control of

#

I’m beginning to think the latter rn

lost ore Oct 14, 2019, 8:21 PM

#

maybe

#

you mean the Sleepers? or the Scavengers?

#

also the drop pods are different from the first ones seen in the 2017 trailer

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 8:24 PM

#

yeah

#

and we’ve got some sort of cerebral complex link

lost ore Oct 14, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

something like a hive mind?

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 8:27 PM

#

I don’t think so

polar forge Oct 14, 2019, 8:38 PM

#

i think what gives you your hud that cerebral injection is in world what the group sending you down there uses to track you and help you do whatever your task is like its an implanted gadget.

Did you guys see how they were dropped in?

bleak atlas Oct 14, 2019, 10:23 PM

Yeah we've had the elevator footage from the first trailer too. But them getting woken up from some sort of stasis is new.

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 10:24 PM

#

well

#

the first trailers footage was much more rickety

#

it's quite a contrast tbh

#

you've got this rickety freefall

bleak atlas Oct 14, 2019, 10:25 PM

#

Yeah it has a different (grittier?) feel to it, but it's the same in principle

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 10:25 PM

vs this hyper quiet hydraulically powered freefall

bleak atlas Oct 14, 2019, 10:25 PM

maybe it changes as you go deeper?

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 10:25 PM

I gotta say, I prefer the grittier clickety clackety free fall

I am a fan of tasteful audio cutouts for mood

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 10:26 PM

It feels like in a way we've pivoted from having a very primitive elevator/system in general

#

to being a lot more high tech

faint shore Oct 14, 2019, 10:27 PM

#

You know, Maybe theyre so deep they have to go under some sort of stasis or be pressurized or something

tall anchor Oct 14, 2019, 10:28 PM
