originally i though that was like, the main lift for the complex
until i got to B and looked down seeing a hallway torn up
especially on B2
Really weird
We will have to see for ourselves once the next run downs come out
And hopefully terminals get audio logs
im glad this chat is pretty active, i enjoy every speculation here
Except the thousands of infected
lore and backstory will be revealed through different text and audio logs left behind by the people who lived in the Complex
from AMA
Nice
almost forgot this part
What shape the outside world is in is part of the mystery that will be revealed in the game
im slowly turning into SirActionSlacks of GTFO
i cant get enough of this bloody picture
this was one of the early ideas for enemies
the cube has arrived
this fine specimen is also nice
Explain
Its in early access
its in early access, not a full release
Its EA
Oooh
It'll be early acces untill release right
Yes
I want the game but i have to wait for christmas ;-;
Hey lads, let’s keep this channel about gtfo lore
Ok mod
Btw do mod know something about the lore?
Have you noticed that it is always raining?
is it?
Yeah
2019
One of them is wearing a CIRAS plate carrier
Crias?
That's early 2000-2015
CIRAS can mean:
Combat Integrated Releasable Armor System, a modular protective vest designed for US Special Operations Forces
Confidential Incident Reporting & Analysis System, a confidential safety reporting service for all workers in the United Kingdom rail industry
Cente...
WE cant really say it's 2021 2022 2023
The guns on the over hand are futuristic
But seem more like repurposed mining equipment
Phalanx CIWS, look it up
Pretty cool
Anyway
The mags on the guns are modern ones
The DMR for example uses a MagPul PMAG style 30 round mag
hemMM
The SMG and the AR both use a P90 style mag and a Beta-C drum respectively
It's a mix of both modern and future
And early screenshots showed the M16A4 rifle
So I would say Kerbe, 2020-2030
hmmmmmmmmmmm
Yeah
The weapons isnt that advance
The thingys they use tho
Like the monster detector
Most
I might
sights are pretty easy to upgrade
And
Yes they are important but seems like modern one would work
For example in the screenshots for the burst rifle (m16) they show old style attachments, specifically a Walther RDS, KAC foregrip and a flashlight of some sorts
We get to buy and upgrade guns in full release so
That's cool
But we can assume that it's not present
Its definitely in the future
I do
I want my customized M4 mate
Not sure might change
Also clothing
It's so we can make kits and such for different situations
Anyway
It's probably set during the 2020's
Or early 2030's
i dont think well buy the gun stuff, but scavenge for them in the complex
well, they utilize Augmented Reality stuff, Neural Interfaces, the facility heavily uses scanners
Well not sure
"Go loot this deathtrap for Mr and you get to keep any shiny toy you find"
in current year we have almost all of this
I agree
minus the cortex interface
But the terminals are all python script
And really bare bones gui
I'm pretty sure my dads commodore 64 has better ui
if you need a better look at the scouts feelers
What information waht would really need?
Yucky
Date and time
We cant really
the place uses a lot of heavily automated stuff, and HSU makes me think its no earlier than roughly 2030+
unless we had a huge breakthrough in that field
ye
Cryo is practically impossible atm
some animals freeze themselves, like frogs
but all the attempts to do this to humans are either: severely damaging or fatal
we are incredibly complex beings so its harder for us
Who would have thought that freezing temperatures dont lead to living forever but instead frostbite
they frogs do it is that they dont like, completely turn to ice
The weapon tech suggests jury rigged at the very least from modern weapons
Yeah
they merely lower their body temp in order to slow their metabolism down
I think
they need time to recover when thawing too
I have noticed slaanesh, that the guns are literally jury rigged mining equipment of some sorts
The only real guns are the revolver, shotguns, pistol and burst rifle
they are
for most part what we use is literally makeshift things
hammers included
one uses a crowbar as a handle
Hammers looks diff
Cant wait to be able to find proper equipment
youre practically using whatever you scavenged and put together
which ties in with the planned system for weapons
I need me that sweet sweet burst M16
aka frankenstein your own gun
according to Simon (i think) well be able to change parts of our weapons and tools
an example was sentry spewing c foam
Frick so chrispy dream is comming true
one of the devs said it waaay back then
Baseball bat instead of the hammer would be nice
nani kore
I could make a better gui using notepad
noticed that the terminals arent in their normal function but in debug
I think we can get alot of clue on this
Ah
youre essentially in its BIOS
By just puting the words
That makes more sense
Instead of the normal mode would be like some kool stuff
probably theres not enough power for them to sustain the terminals at full capabilities
"A2 protocol adoption"
Why is there still power?
Auxiliary power sources
enough juice for essential stuff, but not full on operation
main generators probably went on for a loong time before automatically going offline and letting secondary sources take over
Isnt ||D1 for turning on the reactors||
so you can open doors etc but cant operate heavy machinery, lifts etc
you turn the reactor on uh, C1 or so
So it cant be powered by warden?
so, C1 you overload the grid
Solar panels duh
D1 you ||shut it down to gain access to "passage"||
no date right now but itll last into 2020 probably
team needs time for holidays and so on
so, listening to Giants they have some interesting noises
I think early release will end on 2023
I made a dumb suggestion lmao
Normal Hosts more or less sound like youd expect them, as weird as it sounds
Giants however sound entirely different
Must be multiple people mashed together
mm not really since theyd have other bodies in them
It looks like
they look like people suffering from gigantism
Some speical host
Disease ramped up growth
Most likely
Also no gender distinction between the infected
Which is interesting
Shooter
Strikers are exclusively male
Is only females
Shooters are exclusively female
Really
yeah
lmao
Shooter?
sooxy
Fuck they are ugly
Strikers are more of a screeching type
First one is striker 2nd female
I have to go now
dsaoijdoiasj
I have to go in 2 aim
am
Also top pic has serious case of genital herpes
Really sucks for u
Fuck they are ugly
their arses arent any better
Anyway makes sense that they would change infection based on traits
I'm gonna sleep now since its 12.50 am
' v'
sleep well
Check in #lfg-eastern-europe group
I really enjoy how dainty the shooter's arms are, they remind me of chickens
lol very true
my buddy said the big bois sound like a t-rex when they roar so maybe its bird flu?
i..dont see the connection between a t rex and and bird flu
birds evolved from dinosaurs
from a specific breed
I honestly have no idea about any of the lore of this game but I like it
been listening to ambiance near the drop point hole
theres something in there, alongside rumbling and wind currents
the ambience is an ass-clenching drop inhale
hello
Of course, what's a horror game without ambient noises? Dead space did it so good to make an air of tension, really set the mood for every area really, and GTFO does it very well too
it has some interesting sound ques, especially for an area you dont spend much time in
to be specific, theres periodic clicking coming from down below, much more defined than the ones hosts make
its faint, but its there
I do know what you're talking about but what is the 'lore' that has been suggested so far
?
theres a summary in pinned messages on everything we know so far
plus i made a summary on hosts
dead space was the first game i played that i realized how much of a difference having a headset made
no headset the game wasnt scary, headset on and it was the scariest shit ever
oh nice thissa whole powerpoint
Ambient noise intensifies
these are some weird clicks
Even a pipe falling over in the distance can be a spooky noise if done properly lol
I thought the clicks were just going through above floors
it almost akin to cricket chirps in pitch
like the whooshing of going floor to floor
but its loud enough to be clear even between those bloody wind currents
Is it more chirping than clicking? I've only heard a few enemies ever make a noise similar to a chirp
ok so i have a small theory about the creatures, its short because i didnt put so much thought on it.
lets hear it
it switches between clear clicks and chirps
a game is starting so ill text about it later, sorry
no rush
I definitely think the HSU's are people who were immune to the infection
well
i just got a clear look inside one and..
theyre all dead
mid transformation
hmm
The missing link between human and monster?
maybe The Warden is trying to create super soldiers and that was the closest they got
theyre basically same as corpses you find strewn about
you cant open them, but you can peer into the glass
trying to get a right angle for a picture
I'm not surprised they're frozen
Freezing them would isolate them and at the most prevent that one from spreading, while allowing a good test subject to remaon
Remain
theyre not frozen to be precise
its so bloody hard to get a clear shot
Its aight I'll take a peek next run
you cant like, see it proper but you can see the head split and massive glob of blood
The glob of blood could be from the transformation
but can you see the nublets or is it just a split open dead body?
it could just be that they were experimented on
i mean it looks more like flesh goo from that pic
i see what you mean
with the head
but why those specific individuals then?
They could have been the first wave of infections
HSUs would be great quarantine and preservation
Tru, and the other bodies look fairly rotted
They definitely do
but what would having the first wave of infected be beneficial for?
Tests, especially with patient 0
while logs dont reveal their jobs, certain people in HSUs are Officers
in A1 youre going after Administrators dna sample as example
I wonder if any of the ID cards are the same as any of the HSU bodies
And quarantine as stated before
Probably, I don't see why you'd hunt for a guys DNA to get the wrong one
no like all the ID cards in B1
Ohhh
they already say the ID in the terminal
It's possible
maybe you could gather more info with the card
Also possible they're a corpse or a monster
What would be the reason for dragging a monster or corpse down there in the first place unless thats where they died tho?
Warden needs IDs to access stuff such as the powergrid as it states in B1
I guess I didnt see that
My ultimate theory is that there is a half-fleshed out lore and the devs use the lore chat for new ideas
thats what I do as a GM lol
Simon says the lore is extensive and that they already know what happened
itll be revealed in form of audio and text logs by people from the complex
and that the outside world is also part of the mystery
source?
(Simon Viklund is behind the lore in 10cc)
I just waana know honestly
his own words waaay back between alpha and beta, when he was in general chat
i asked him about how extensive the lore is
and the log part is from AmA
Answer: GTFO is not a reinterpretation of George Orwell's "1984", but yes - the lore and backstory will be revealed through different text and audio logs left behind by the people who lived in the Complex before the monster invasion. What shape the outside world is in is part of the mystery that will be revealed in the game, so I won't talk about there here. 😉
I just got this game on impulse and know nothing about it since 3 days ago so I'm just trying to figure out wtf is going on
well, right now we can only speculate
we do have some tibids of stuff from trailer such as coordinates, character descrptions by Simon
documentary etc
the place has been abandoned for "many years" according to it
the hosts are also confirmed to not be zombies or aliens
I trust you but I don't trust Simon. I'd definitely say some shit like that if I needed help worldbuilding
Many years is a conspiracy, corpses are still fresh, zombies cant melt steel beams /s
There is a lot of underlying plot already in the EA game
You just need to look out for it
And lucky for you, we are also lore nerds
I guess I just need to look closer
and get farther than b2 w/o random people hopping in the chat trying to play cod
For example
Did you know that the way we enter the maps (the hole) is blown upwards
like we're going up?
a common feature i noticed is that their heads are elongated
the damage on the entrance point suggests something was forced upwards
oh like an explosion from below
or something
Strikers have their head repurposed into a maw
shooters you can see clearly how their heads is now more like an oval
or even egg shaped
No scorch marks in the pit
Something pushed itself out
That's a likely possibility
heres a quiz for you
Or that we are already infected
Alive
Dead
alive
Alive is the right answer
Everytime
this fucking thing still tried to kill me
you can smack the booty off of the big bois
Torso is blown off but it continues to move
normal Hosts can live through that too
I just had to ask this but our characters are prisoners right?
amusingly
And like, are their sentences done at this point or is it still going?
We are also infected
the big bois like to not die
Like, are they being enslaved by the A.I Warden to do its dirty work
Were prisoners in a sense that were kept against our will
2 shotguns to the heart
I don't think they're that type of prisoner
we dont know if we are convicts yet
Oh
I think we are disposable due to us being infected
^
Im gonna bet that the lore will state that we're like the class D from the SCP foundation where our characters are people who've committed really bad crimes
like mass murder, etc
The clothing we wear is a mix of civilian and military clothes
what i dont get is the subtitles before every raid
Previous expeditions
subsurface transmissions
^
ok
If you place them all in order its depressing
It goes from we can do this to we are fucked
I always thought it was a constant state of fuckery up top and down below is more 'peaceful
Nup
n0ni
Deeper = suicide
@neat sand that's the infection talking
^
😮
Warden expects large mortality rate
"everyone is dead"
eh
yo spoilers bro
ima just
keep away from it
i also notice things like
"infected" at the end of the expedition screen
I just want to know why the shadows are different
Whatever the fuck causes that
unexpectedly, Miss Legs gave me a good view of Shooters head growths
or rather their texture
at the end it differs from person to person
i see
Post saucy shooter pics
The sacs
Yes
like everyone will have a different state for each person
is that a normal sleeper
sigh
unzips
issa slinger
Shooter
oh no
what the hell is a shooter
theyre rough, almost rocky
i'm only on B2
hot nublets
They shoot those yellow balls
Ohhhh
They shoot pods
those are shooters okay i see now
Cursed lamp
It does 5 damage
I always called all of them sleepers
is that the official name? Ive been making up names
I thought that was striker
Strikers have the maw
really enjoyed it when I sledgehammered a Shooter's kidney
There's a chance that the pods shooters, shoot, are what helps spread infection
Strikers are exclusively males, Shooters are all females
and it just flops down to the ground
Big fucker is my nickname for the giatns
so what you're saying
is that the girl sleepers
are the ones that are shooting the
sp0rm?
Kek
BIG GUY is what i call the giants
big bois
They both have serious cases fo genital herpes
smack their booty off
2 shot shells to the chest
Oh dude, they're easy
1-2 good night
^
Fuck stealth
I found that out yesterday
Me and 3 other people just chain charged sledgehammer attacks at it
20 hp gang
And if it's still alive
Absolute mad lad
It's a solid tactic
You smacked the giants booty hardcore?
on my 1st B1 Expedition every single one of us were at 20 hp
and we were just
smacking the big guys with sledgehammers
one to head, second to torso, third to booty, and the last smacks their legs into oblivion
and we somehow still survived the whole expedition
despite running out of ammo for all weapons
Anyway, another interesting thing is that you will be able to find a mix of our dury rigged guns and modern guns in the favility
Eventually
and being at below 30% hp
Also, if you're running, you can jump over or duck under attacks
Yo but what about the scouts?
Duck and weave bois
Scouts ez
like where do they come in
scouts are fucking annoying
in the lore
C-foam
they shoot out hentai tentacles that find you
are they non-binary or what?
Are early warning systems for the hive
They sound gross too
Yep
The tendrils are used as a trip wire of sorts
just wiggling about
yeah
based off of how it reacts ingame
if you touch it, it goes back to the scout
and fucking alerts everyone
For real tho, if strikers are male and shooters are female then what are scouts?
It screams
even those that arent even suppose in the area
Or if light touches it
Hermaphrodite
but fr tho
Dunno
Futanari probably
😳
I can vibe with that
Scout: Vibe check. does hentai tentacle sounds
Scouts are probably blind due to the fact that they require an early warning system
theyre all blind brother
No
That brief second of invincibility is annoying
It's sad seeing the corpses of previous prisoners there
They are not all blind
blind-ish
Like, near the last part of the objectives
you will always see dead prisoners and some dead sleepers
Why do you think lights piss them off
just laying about around the map
heat
yesh
"this guy failed after going this far"
It literally says that they are sensitive to light
Well, they're in a dark pit of despair
not that they see tho
They have normal light on for the most part
And if it is parasitic
Parasite could dislike powerful lights
Prisoner: Accidentally touches hentai tentacle
Every fucking sleeper ever: Cowabunga it is.
the flashlights are about the same intensity as the lights tho
where they eyes be?
Ehhh
no eyes
On the head
show me
pretty sure they detect you through sound
Not all have eyes
or something
Anyway
It could just be individual types of lights, wattage, location wtc
love em
Also gib M16 already 10cc
did they show something of the lore?
They upduct people apparently
or is the same as alpha/beta?
They di
M16 owowo
Do
Beta A1 is now B1
?
Like the smoker in l4d
They grab, drag and incapacitate one poor person
Early Access A1 is the newest out of all the others
Anyway m16 is the burst rifle
Imagine being yeeted around the corner by the tentacle
"What the fuck is tha-"
you know what
i want to see a makeshift AK-47 ingame
like, as an option for standard weapon
isnt this the gulf of mexico?
i'm all cool with the combat shotgun tbh
not russia
Bruh
AKs are common as fuck
Aks are everywhere
Also fick the AK-47
They're the most sold gun
NO
It's not even common
ok i am back
AKM is the most common
i torn the gif apart to take a better look
Same gun, one better built
whats ur theory RUBEHY
it has a bloody hand print on it
I'd like to see more weapon types
You will be able to customize them eventually
currently it feels satisfying shooting enemies with the assault rifle tbh
O
y0s
very good
And then soon
the mods will come
Someone obviously made a blood pact with it
so iirc the complex is a science / storage facility right?
imagine.. anime catgirls as sleepers
and they have replaced audio where they say "NYA" when they get aggro'd
Kek
But it ||a front due to experimenting with whatever the fuck caused this||
Still need to be shot
for now the complex is a mining operation
Dont harm catgirls
hm
@karmic temple nya nya NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH(super scream)
well i can take the mining explanation
mining operation with stasis tubes of dead people
since 1. the facility is underground
Well
and 2. there are some equipment lying around
Well, irl it's a mining operation
i wonder which experiment they were doing when they built this
and if you guys/gals know about the zombie snail / leucochloridium paradoxum
can't be
Yes iirc
i love that parasite
Why?
because when you look up
because of how fucked up it is
during intro phase
i think the scientists were conducting some experiment with prehistoric versions of those creature
It's always bloody raining
you hear rain
and it went wrong
yeah
which caused an outbreak
It rains over the ocean?
so thats my short theory
yeah but you literally hear the rain drops
so it cant be under the ocean
i fuck with that
to those who dont know what Rubs talking about, theres a species of parasite which manipulates snails into getting to an exposed spot, while forcing their eyes to swell in order to get eaten by birds, aka their main hosts
Why do you think there is storms when at see
i wonder which other monsters are down the complex?
oh god i dont wanna imagine the bad side of the internet once they hear about this game
theyre light sensitive, and invade the tentacles
to those who dont know what Rubs talking about, theres a species of parasite which manipulates snails into getting to an exposed spot, while forcing their eyes to swell in order to get eaten by birds, aka their main hosts
Like cordyceps
rule 34 when?
CEASE
CEASE, NOW
well, down the line you encounter ||shades and bullrush strikers||
Behave
I'm calling shadman rn
the deeper you go
shades?
DO NOT LET THE SLEEPERS OUT!!
the shadows?
Shadows
SHIT, SHOOT THEM
and bullrush?
Shadows
wtf is that?
NO SHUSH
You'll see
DO NOT SAY ANYTHING
Kek
oh youll see
D:
you'll see
||use your lights||
😮
stop with the spoilers ;-;
thats why i bloody put a spoiler tag people
i know the shadows
Dont click them
The broodsacs seem to pulsate in response to light intensity, and in total darkness they do not pulse at all
from wiki
people are gonna mention the contents
but not the bullrush strikers
Spoiler tag is for spoilers
use || on both sides of a message to make it a spoiler tag
of snail parasite
which is not cool
people are gonna mention whatever they see in the spoiler
so they ruin it for everyonne
😭
pat
||my pp get big when I see tentacle upduct teammate||
i feel sad
dont be
i shall prepare to hibernnate in my bed
Be happy you'll forget
i still need to stop being a lazy cunt and get down to C myself
and dream about being in the facility again
while screaming at the top of my lungs
so i can take those sweet pictures
that i want out
so is the acronym of the game solved? about its signification?
same
like maybe an underground version of those zombie snails that pulsate light in the dark (which is not real)
im already at B2
Get the fuck out
B2 ez
?t gtfo
The game is called GTFO and it doesn't stand for "Get The Fuck Out" but rather the feeling you have that you want to complete The Warden's objective and GTFO.
but like not now
ohhh
The Warden is an A.I right?
Dumno
i like someones theory that these things are related to deep sea stuff
yes
not known
so what do you all think of my theory?
i finished B1 in 1 run tbh
It could be a literal warden
Warden could be anything from an Operating System to a group of operatives
Its pretty interesting
for now we have 0 clues on its nature
true
OMG THIS GAME IS A CONSPIRACY, SHIT IS GOING TO BE REAL!
only what it wants
or a group of operatives controlling an operating system
mhm
👀
||real dead space vibes from this game||
tfw this chat is going fast now
lmao
or just some sick fuck like billy the doll
idk
eitherway
cant wait for the full lore to come out
Quick write everything in spoiler tags so cross cant read anything
i wonder what the reason was why we took the 12 ID cards at B1 tho
for a power plant I think
Warden needs officer identification to access the power grid
and even then its apparently not enough
yeah that
||I poo poo myself when I round the corner and get jump scared by a sleeper||
gtfo ( great tissue for odds)
We are also infected btw
wait there are HSU's scattered throughout the level in B1 right
in every place
what if in those HSUs are the 12 officers that we had to find the ID cards of
the 4 main characters are infected by the way
In general, Warden knows:
- General sectors with stuff it requires
- If pathways have opened
- specific personnel
just a mini theory
at the end, does it say a different level of infection for y'all
Warden doesnt know:
- Layout of the complex
- Specific locations of items it needs
yeah
other peoples infection was serious for me
it has a sort of diagram of the place
like, 2 out of 3 of my teammates
but it cannot pinpoint stuff
"hackett, your mom is over there"
but was theres serious for themselves?
had serious infection
"she is as beautiful as ever" XD
mine has been saying high for a while now
@last saffron I wonder what's down there
best dialogue
Like, at the very bottom
home base of the strongest sleeper?
the original mining expedition irl went around 1 300 something meters
or like
compare what your game says your infection rate with what other people's games says
the.. tentacle thing..
that place is around 1 kilometer deep
idk if its a bug or a feature
their target goal was 1.5 originally
first expedition was already at 400 meters
holy crap guys
so the last one
there is confirmed a new subtype of enemy
might be 1300 meters deep
please put a spoiler tag on it if youre gona post it
how i do it?
|| on both sides of the message
put 2 ||'s at the end of each sentence
||like this||
ok i will try
alternatively, highlight it and right click > mark as spoiler
were only scraping the surface for now
since your characters are being worked against their will
yeah its not very obvious
||we have the same BIG ugly motherfucker like the striker, but in SHOOTER version D:||
look at that
ok good spoiler tags
and you have to figure it out yourself by shitting ur pants over and over
im not gonna click
o
lol
i dont think theyre new really
ok im loggin out see yah
especially if you read the wiki
the only problem with that is that those parasites dont use snails as their final host. the snail acts as a means of getting into their final dwelling
i wont support it yet
who do you think is the final dwelling...
birds
us
warden is sending us down on bullshit missions to contract the virus for some reason
...i highly doubt the mining pesonnel went about eating unprocessed snails
the sleepers could be former miners and expeditioners
evidence suggest that its the case
But fr tho
you find uniforms scattered, corpses mid change wearing said uniforms
if the players are the same every time there must be something special about us
by the looks of them, theyve been like that for..around a week
It's tough to tell
yeah but the flesh is grey
inb4 the complex has time working differently
does more gravity mean less time or more?
Regardless it's still sad
Time goes faster
because they went all that way just to die
pressure wouldnt affect decomposing much
you could preserve a corpse in immaculate condition, given the right preparation
since its mostly just bacteria eating you
like an HSU
