If this doesn't protect Doctors, our masks will sure as hell not

pastel knot
#

fair enough

analog frigate
#

hazmat class d can protect against any airborne infection

rich blaze
#

well here there's been infection through class A

analog frigate
#

you are literally perfectly isolated from the world

#

oh yeah a

#

not d

#

i switched them around

#

my mistake

#

also they probably weren't using class As

rich blaze
pastel knot
#

also consider that they are far away from the preset

analog frigate
rich blaze
#
little progress has been made. Even after the parasite is removed, the viral
load increases. We cannot stop the progress of the virus, and our only
defense is SCBA Level A suits when in NAM-V hotspots. Even with this level of protection, the parasites are finding ways in. 
pastel knot
#

so technology and shit could be different, etc.

analog frigate
#

ah

#

scba a suits

#

alright i missed that

#

EVEN WITH THAT THEY ARE FINDING WAYS IN?

leaden dagger
#

holy shit

analog frigate
#

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE PARASITES

leaden dagger
#

tough as fuck

analog frigate
#

they literally have to penetrate the suit

leaden dagger
#

tardigrade type beat wtf

pastel knot
#

nom nom

analog frigate
#

such suits are fully sealed off, only way for something to get in is a tear

#

they are literally making a hole in the suit to get in

leaden dagger
#

quantum state parasites

#

small enough to bridge the gaps

#

πŸ˜‚

pastel knot
#

wonder if that's even biologically possible lol

analog frigate
#

they must be very tough to tear that while being microscopic

#

should be

leaden dagger
#

I'm not sure

analog frigate
#

i've never heard of such though

rich blaze
leaden dagger
#

well

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

if we can find out the size of the transistors used for quantum computers

analog frigate
#

people to enter the suit?

rich blaze
#

Parasites, tearing through the suit is the only way for them

analog frigate
#

yes

leaden dagger
#

maybe it's possible

analog frigate
#

no it doesn't

#

single celled organisms are as small as we know

leaden dagger
#

then that rules that out pretty much

#

unless it's some new form of life that isn't carbon based

#

but still parasitic in nature

#

and small as fuxk

analog frigate
#

could be seeing cretasium

rich blaze
#

I mean, if it's a parasite that carries a virus, it just digs through I guess

pastel knot
#

smallest thing I could find was around 0.2-0.7 ΞΌm in length

analog frigate
#

but we don't have enough information

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

it just makes us susceptible to it

#

it would cause a mutation somewhere, to change a protein and allow the virus to attach

leaden dagger
#

what a weird fucking parasite

analog frigate
#

but now we run into an issue

#

there are two parasites if the fog theory with parasites is correct

#

and that makes no sense

leaden dagger
#

ah fuck, you're right

#

so then the fog might be something else

analog frigate
#

we should be getting NAM-V by going through it, not infection

leaden dagger
#

back to our poison theory

pastel knot
#

maybe the fog is sleeper c-foam /s

analog frigate
#

hell yeah we removed a theory

#

2 left

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

we have: toxin and dust

leaden dagger
#

wooo progress

#

good shit guys

analog frigate
#

personally i think dust is incorrect

leaden dagger
#

agreed

pastel knot
#

dust wouldn't really make a lot of sense

leaden dagger
#

or if it is correct, accounts for a small %

analog frigate
#

because the only thing that could cause such toxic dust would be cretasium, since it's the only thing we don't know

pastel knot
#

if it was toxin it would at least explain all the air filters around the complex

analog frigate
#

also all the points about how it will settle after a while and other reasons in an earlier conversation

leaden dagger
#

yuh yuh

analog frigate
#

seeing the new log about the alloy, it appears that that it isn't toxic

leaden dagger
#

so I think we can safely agree that it's some type of poison fog

analog frigate
#

there were no mentions of health concerns or anything else

leaden dagger
#

someone needs to make a doc of this

#

send it to Professor Scaler lmao

analog frigate
pastel knot
#

I haven't checked

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

yessir

analog frigate
#

aight

leaden dagger
#

this theory is pretty solid I'd say

analog frigate
#

yeah

leaden dagger
#

devs would have some insane explanations. If it isnt

analog frigate
#

unless there are other ideas, this is the one that makes sense

leaden dagger
#

stuff we can't envision

analog frigate
#

yes

analog frigate
rich blaze
#

Maybe Fog is just Cretasium dust

leaden dagger
#

the more we can rule out, the better πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

that's been discussed and ruled out

#

a few times

analog frigate
#

you can explain to him dagga, i'm gonna go write the doc for Scaler

leaden dagger
#

good looks

#

share it with me when you're done?

analog frigate
#

alright

leaden dagger
#

I'll check it and see if we miss stuff

pastel knot
#

are the logs ordered in the date they were 'released'?

analog frigate
#

yeah i'll send it before i dm Scaler

#

to make sure everything is good

leaden dagger
#

that's a TLDR version

#

if you scroll up to the 4th I think, we went into it in more detail

rich blaze
#

What if Fog is just high concentration of stone Dust in the Ventilation borked Complex?

#

Stone dust is the reason of the presence of fog repellers in the first place

leaden dagger
#

that was ruled out. it would've posed a health risk so it would've been cleared out. AND it would've settled

#

this is years in the future

#

from the mining process

pastel knot
#

btw, another corrupted log in 7 hours

leaden dagger
solar nova
leaden dagger
#

if ventilation is broken how would it be kicked up and suspended?

rich blaze
blissful helm
#

What’s the lore behind localization 😩

honest merlin
#

Also the way the fog rises on some levels doesn't really look like dust to me. And if it were dust, why would it be dripping down the masks of the prisoners like it currently does? We see big droplets roll on the glass of the prisoners' masks when in infectious fog.

leaden dagger
#

^

rich blaze
leaden dagger
#

that too

analog frigate
#

also we see no particulates within the liquid on the masks, just a liquid

blissful helm
solar nova
analog frigate
#

if there were particulates, they would have to be nanoparticles like in ferrofluid, which are exceptionally hard to make and keep stable

#

you can't just make them from mining

solar nova
#

πŸ€”

pastel knot
#

I think one thing worth mentioning is that the alloy was discovered around 1 year before the 'WHO declaring the virus as pandemic' log

leaden dagger
#

THIS IS THE START OF OUR INFECTION THREAD

#

where we debunk dust

#

and conclude on poison

rich blaze
rich blaze
leaden dagger
#

idk what that means

#

doesnt matter anyway, we're makin a doc with all the info

#

or most of it

analog frigate
#

is there actually a gtfo lore discord?

leaden dagger
#

all i know of is a modding one

dim scroll
#

i recall there is one

rich blaze
#

There is one

dim scroll
#

with around 300 members ?

#

or did it increase ?

leaden dagger
#

anyone got the link?

dim scroll
#

There

rich blaze
pastel knot
#

man we should have a bot that replies with that lmao

dim scroll
#

Me & the boyz bing chillin in the complex

#

😳

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

#

a GTFO social credit system thats what we need

constant error alarm

pastel knot
#

no more sussy

leaden dagger
#

we need that

#

weed out the fake fans

#

and shitty suggestions flooding the thread

analog frigate
#

alright so currently we need something

#

why would the toxin theory about the fog be false

#

we have forgotten to talk about that

leaden dagger
#

ah shit right

#

main one being the disinfect stations again

#

clearing out your insides

#

the disinfect stations ruin a lot of shit πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

why?

leaden dagger
#

the toxins gotta get inside your body to affect your nerves

analog frigate
#

no

#

that's how neurotoxins exist

#

only skin contact is required to cause effects

leaden dagger
#

oh shit right

#

my bad my bad

analog frigate
#

no problem

leaden dagger
#

brain fart moment

pastel knot
#

isn't it kinda like an unavoidable allergy?

leaden dagger
#

one issue is how specific it would have to be

leaden dagger
analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

that's also true lma

#

lmao

analog frigate
#

it is completely possible for it to cause those certain effects

#

also

#

being infected in percentage explains it as well

leaden dagger
#

im running out of ideas to disprove it πŸ˜‚im a firm believer in poison theory

analog frigate
#

it takes time to cover your skin with the toxin

leaden dagger
#

yeah good points

analog frigate
#

and surface area matters

#

the dose is limited by how much skin you have

leaden dagger
#

only issue i can really see is how it gets through all the gear we have

analog frigate
#

it can explain why nothing happens below 10%

leaden dagger
#

but still makes sense

#

very true

leaden dagger
#

it seems bulky but i could be wrong

analog frigate
#

it's not an airtight suit

leaden dagger
#

and would still get through anyways

#

yeah

#

honestly? i dont see any viable way to disprove poison theory

#

it all checks out

analog frigate
#

if you move around with clothing on right now you can feel the air coming in

#

yeah

leaden dagger
#

we need more people on it lmao

#

hmm

#

wonder how it got there?

#

like in such specific places

#

consistency is a bit of a problem with all the theories of the fog

analog frigate
#

fog naturally is denser than air

leaden dagger
#

since its a level design choice

analog frigate
#

that's why you see it in lower parts

leaden dagger
#

i wonder how it got in the complex in the first place though

#

was it a gas leak?

analog frigate
#

it could have been moved there by sleepers moving and the life support system

leaden dagger
#

orrrrr who can say

#

ahh true

analog frigate
#

leaked out of the 2km digsite

#

then the air got taken up and moved to be replenished with oxygen

#

leading to it spreading to all levels

pastel knot
#

maybe some humidity

analog frigate
#

before the air turbines cut out and it remained where it last is

#

would explain how much there is the deeper you go

leaden dagger
#

good point

#

that makes sense

analog frigate
#

and how the earlier fog isn't toxic

#

there is fog everywhere

leaden dagger
#

more of it sank in time

#

yuh

analog frigate
#

yup

pastel knot
#

thicc

leaden dagger
#

thats it, im out of any ideas to disprove or combat poison theory

#

it makes too much sense

#

you got any ideas? @pastel knot

pastel knot
#

nope, just waiting for the next log now

leaden dagger
#

alright bet

#

hows the doc coming Daraxus?

analog frigate
#

pretty nice

#

still writing about the parasite theory

leaden dagger
#

good shit

#

man, if the devs haven't thought this far ahead, we're doing their job for them πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

maybe

lilac island
#

the parasite might have created the first few hundred sleepers but we still dont know how the giants were created

analog frigate
#

mutations

leaden dagger
#

evolution or mutation

analog frigate
#

evolution would take too long

lilac island
#

or they just have a complete life cycle we dont understand

leaden dagger
#

just like how one chain of DNA can be mutated to cause unlimited cell growth, it could happen here

leaden dagger
analog frigate
#

there have been no signs of living creature needs

lilac island
#

and evolution would have happened whilst they were in the meteor aka deep reach

analog frigate
#

true, but aren't sleepers infected personnel?

leaden dagger
#

yeah they didn't come from the meteors

lilac island
#

some

leaden dagger
#

that wouldn't make sense

#

to only now surface? millions of years later?

lilac island
#

kds deep would possibly be the meteor that potentialy wiped out the dinosours thousands of years ago

analog frigate
#

actually

#

maybe

#

locations matches up if i remember correctly

pastel knot
# analog frigate evolution would take too long

consider alien theory I suppose
(not the sleepers being alien, but the parasites/virus to some extent)
or at least the parasites/virus are some sort of extremophile that can mutate/evolve real fast

leaden dagger
#

I dont think that sleepers arriving fully evolved in a meteor makes sense

analog frigate
lilac island
#

someone posted a while back

#

about geothermal patches in the area

analog frigate
#

man we need to make threads

leaden dagger
#

lmao

analog frigate
#

we haven't been doing that

leaden dagger
#

it's fiiine

lilac island
#

someone tell me when the pump failure was and when the virus outbreak was again

analog frigate
#

actually we can't

leaden dagger
#

some time in 2053 I think, idk

analog frigate
#

yes

leaden dagger
#

not sure exact dates

#

my memory is so bad

analog frigate
#

pump failure cannot be told due to there being no dates on autologs

lilac island
#

ok

analog frigate
#

only hours

#

but the virus was in mid 2053 i think

#

you can check the pinned timeline by chase

leaden dagger
#

yeah

#

think again to the fact that sleepers are humanoid

#

a VERY specific trait

#

for them to arrive like that isn't mathematically reasonable

#

just by chance aline

#

alone

lilac island
#

the sleepers were possibly born from say a parasite or "viral infection"

analog frigate
#

mathematically speaking the chance of other humanoid parasitic creatures appearing is way way astronomically low

leaden dagger
#

fact

#

that's why I'm almost certain it's humans that for transformed

#

and then reproduction probably ensued over time

#

evident by mothers

lilac island
#

probably

leaden dagger
#

how reproduction works? who can say

#

all the babies are strikers

analog frigate
#

they would evolve to be perfectly parasitic to as many environments as possible, while if they are infected humans, it would make sense to evolve from the native life form of the planet as to survive literally like a native on it

leaden dagger
#

but Strikers are male

analog frigate
#

by evolution logic, such a parasitic life form would evolve from native species as to survive the best it can

#

otherwise there won't be any sense in evolving by yourself (since you are a parasite) to as many environments, since planets can quite vary. from ocean worlds to dry deserts with no oxygen in the atmosphere

#

there is no way to prep for such environments

leaden dagger
#

yeah

lilac island
#

what about shooters?

leaden dagger
#

not to mention the amount of radiation in space

analog frigate
#

damn i hope people like Scaler or chase are reading this

leaden dagger
#

Shooters are female

lilac island
#

but how do they come into existance

leaden dagger
#

mutation, transformation from women, who can say

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

you could say that about any of the sleepers

hot burrow
#

What are you lore monkeys brain storming

lilac island
#

sleepers

hot burrow
#

And

leaden dagger
#

everything lmao

hot burrow
#

Ok

analog frigate
#

everything basically

lilac island
#

birther that spawns shooters when

leaden dagger
#

who knows

#

it'd make sense we would see them but no

analog frigate
#

it doesn't

lilac island
#

shooters might also be formed from baby strikers growing and changing

leaden dagger
#

maybe Strikers convers yeah

#

that's what i was just thinking

lilac island
#

and thats why there are no baby shooters

leaden dagger
#

like a poverty of sorts

#

puberty**

lilac island
#

sort of

analog frigate
#

why would a mother spawn genetically evolved like the native species animals and not a modified version, still capable of surviving, that is efficient to actually make and infect more with?

lilac island
#

which still doesnt explain hybrids tanks ect

analog frigate
#

shooters shoot and kill the target

lilac island
#

chargers might also have the same thing happen

analog frigate
#

strikers actually hit them and possibly infect them

#

so more of a chance for the parasite to spread

leaden dagger
#

that's true

lilac island
#

there are limits with evolution

analog frigate
#

with an unknown alien species, those are very loose

#

now i'm gonna stop typing and focus on making the doc

leaden dagger
#

although at this point the sleepers may be an entirely different species no longer dependant on the parasite

analog frigate
#

have fun

lilac island
#

we still dont know whats in deep reach where the virus originaly came from

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

#

alright ima make lunch while you do that

#

we shall continue the theory of everything soon stay tuned lads

leaden dagger
#

me and Daraxus are on the fuckin CASE

#

with help of others of course

lilac island
analog frigate
#

hopefully someone like scaler or chase will join in as well

leaden dagger
#

facts

analog frigate
# lilac island r5e1

knowing it's composition and literally every detail we can gather from it cannot give us enough information to determine where it originates from

lilac island
#

thats not what i mean

analog frigate
#

it can be from a system 100 light years away or a system 100,000 light years away

lilac island
#

heres a far fetched theory

analog frigate
#

or the virus

pastel knot
lilac island
#

kds built the hsu vault

leaden dagger
#

oh man there's a whole rabbit whole to go down

lilac island
#

as far as im concerned thats a thing

#

what if that hsu vault goes into deep reach

analog frigate
#

meaning?

lilac island
#

aka the majour labs down there

analog frigate
#

too dangerous

lilac island
#

or is it

honest merlin
#

Can we try writing everything we want to say in a single message so that the chat would be a bit easier to read instead of

like
I think
that maybe
the sleepers
are aliens

leaden dagger
#

no

lilac island
#

nope

leaden dagger
#

I think in separate messages

lilac island
#

not happening

analog frigate
#

with the whole sleeper infestation, fog and depth, it would be too difficult to get everything down there and establish a lab

analog frigate
#

which we will then store on the lore server possibly

leaden dagger
#

^

lilac island
#

alternatively everything in those labs might've been automated

leaden dagger
#

this is about discussion to reach an agreement which we document

lilac island
#

and then legionaries were sent down to retrieve the data

#

aka us

#

basically what the warden is doing

#

if you get what i mean

analog frigate
#

can someone copy and paste the hospital doc from the corrupted folder

#

since the lore server is really lacking

analog frigate
hot burrow
#

πŸ‘€

leaden dagger
#

I dont have it

#

who posted it originally?

lilac island
analog frigate
#

it can't

#

class A HAZMAT suits are fully isolated

#

nothing can go in or out of them once it's sealed

#

the person is inside with an oxygen tank

#

completely isolated from the surroundings

lilac island
#

hmm

analog frigate
#

only way to go through is for the parasite to make a hole in the suit and go it

#

literally the only way

lilac island
#

even a microscopic hole

analog frigate
#

those don't exist on the suit

#

the standards are incredibly strict

hot burrow
#

Parasite just built different

lilac island
#

or the parasite could create microscopic holes

analog frigate
#

that's the current idea

pastel knot
#

kind of a weird one though

lilac island
#

technically it is possible

pastel knot
#

yeah, but I doubt those suits are thin enough to be pierced in normal conditions
then again weird parasites so who knows

lilac island
#

who knows

analog frigate
#

someone please post the file where it says about the class a hazmats

lilac island
#

please

#

or you could find it and post it

hot burrow
#

Who needs a hazmat suit when you got a gas mask made from a trash bag and tape (looking at woods)

pastel knot
#

Now I'm wondering, are the prisioners bald...

hot burrow
#

Probably. Having hair would be bad

analog frigate
#

so they definitely are bald

hot burrow
#

I hope they get updated face models

leaden dagger
#

got those from earlier in the thread

analog frigate
#

why the same pictures twice

leaden dagger
#

oh wait

#

that was the wrong one

analog frigate
#

that's the newer alloy scan file

leaden dagger
#

yeah my bad

analog frigate
#

np

leaden dagger
analog frigate
#

he is offline

#

i don't know what that log is

leaden dagger
#

me either

analog frigate
#

@devout geyser you got any idea?

analog frigate
#

it appears our two people with a timeline are not here

#

scaler is also idle

#

at this point i am going to make one myself

leaden dagger
#

nvm I found it

analog frigate
#

ah ron

#

yes

#

good ty

leaden dagger
#

np bro

leaden dagger
analog frigate
#

yes

leaden dagger
#

i thought i saw one linked earlier

analog frigate
#

pinned notion timeline, personnel and other stuff by chase

leaden dagger
#

ah

analog frigate
#

quite useful but i think there also should be an explanations of phenomena part

leaden dagger
#

i thought scaler made a video on the timeline, i could be wrong though

leaden dagger
#

ohhh wait you wanted access to get it added

#

is that what you mean?

analog frigate
#

as in to add the fog doc?

#

not yet

leaden dagger
#

ok gotcha

analog frigate
#

but i might ask him to make a section for stuff like that

#

the fog, sleepers

leaden dagger
#

good idea

analog frigate
#

a lot of stuff that needs to be explained and we have basically done it

leaden dagger
#

pretty much

analog frigate
#

for example we are close to concluding what the sleepers are

leaden dagger
#

good on us lmao

analog frigate
#

i might write stuff for that as well

leaden dagger
#

sounds good

#

can you share the doc with me? i can dm you my email

analog frigate
#

i suppose you can dm chase about it and i'm going to wrap up the doc

leaden dagger
#

DM chase about what we've concluded? or that we'd like to add the stuff?

analog frigate
#

that we would like to add the stuff

#

a section for explanations to phenomena

leaden dagger
#

yessir

#

did it πŸ‘

analog frigate
#

ty

#

contains the three main theories we had

pastel knot
#

nice

leaden dagger
#

hell yeah

analog frigate
#

we figured out the fog

leaden dagger
#

feels good man

analog frigate
#

one step further into everything being explained

#

(the logical things)

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

#

figuring out fog < figuring out boosters

analog frigate
#

ravenna could pin it possibly when she can

#

i think it's important of a thing

#

now i am going to write about the sleepers

#

i think i got down what they are

leaden dagger
#

sounds good bro

analog frigate
#

i think sleepers are a parasitic life form that ended up on the planet

#

the way they came into being is most likely first imitating us to try and survive

#

then once they started killing workers they started mutating from the native species - humans, so that they can survive

#

they wouldn't try and evolve to survive in all environments, that's why they are parasites

#

they evolve from the native species to instantly get the result of millions of years of evolution

#

then feed off of them and spread

pastel knot
#

would sort of explain the large 'mutations' (tank, mama, etc.)
but it would counteract with the dead bodies with sleeper like features in the ground

analog frigate
#

they are bodies from sleepers killed by KSOs

pastel knot
#

personally doubt it, they don't 100% look like it

leaden dagger
#

im not sure if i entirely agree? maybe im misunderstanding how you worded it

pastel knot
#

but it could be possible, yeah

analog frigate
#

KDS security was sent down to protect workers and fend off sleepers

#

also there will always be failures

leaden dagger
analog frigate
#

not every mutation can go right

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

unless im reading it wrong

analog frigate
#

i am not sure of it

#

but my idea is that they just tried to somehow get some humans killed

#

possibly by imitating movements

#

shape

#

or other stuff

leaden dagger
#

personally, i dont think sleepers are necesarily evil per se

analog frigate
#

they don't have to be sentient

leaden dagger
#

let me see if i can word this correctly

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

yes definitely

#

they only try to kill us to protect themselves

analog frigate
#

no

#

they are a parasite

#

with the intention of spreading

#

or actually

leaden dagger
#

the sleepers themselves? no i dont think so

analog frigate
#

yes you're right

leaden dagger
#

a parasite is small

#

the sleepers are a result of the parasites effects

#

thats what i personally think

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

generally though

analog frigate
#

yes

leaden dagger
#

but the sleepers dont infect us

#

we just die

analog frigate
#

also it would make sense that they are protecting their territory

#

since they don't actively hunt for prey

leaden dagger
#

yuh

analog frigate
#

they just sit and wait until someone goes into their territory

leaden dagger
#

and scouts being like an alarm system for the group

analog frigate
#

yep

leaden dagger
#

scouts the real G's

#

lmao

#

ok so you believe the sleepers themselves are parasites?

#

im tryna get things lined up

analog frigate
#

i think the sleepers are the mutated humans

#

the actual monsters

leaden dagger
#

ok yes, i agree with that

analog frigate
#

the parasites are just tiny parasites that infected them

#

they are probably carried on the sleepers

leaden dagger
#

i agree with all of the above

analog frigate
#

hmm

#

it doesn't feel right

leaden dagger
#

that they're mutations?

analog frigate
#

no

#

how they appeared

#

i think it's sort of a hive

leaden dagger
#

maybe we can compare this parasite to the Flood in halo?

#

though its a completely different game universe lmao

analog frigate
#

true

leaden dagger
#

and halo is in like 2150 or something i forget

analog frigate
#

but there could've been inspiration

leaden dagger
#

yuh cause the parasites infect humans, dead or alive, and are tapped into the Gravemind

#

but its very supernatural sounding so im not sure how well it fits with GTFO

#

considering most of GTFO isn't too supernatural

#

whereas halo is full on space aliens that are very sentient and evil

analog frigate
#

my idea is: they were some species within the meteorite, very territorial, that then mutated through humans and their DNA as to survive on the planet

leaden dagger
#

some species as in, an actual full organism? or still a parasite?

analog frigate
#

hmm

#

i am not sure

#

could be both

#

but thinking now, they don't seem very parasitic in nature

#

there isn't any searching for hosts and when they find them, it's just killing them

leaden dagger
#

i dont think the parasite itself is controlling them

#

its just a catalyst for the transformation

#

nothing besides spitters actively try to infect you

#

and spitters can be argued to not even be a type of sleeper but who can say

analog frigate
#

but it appears to not be the same infection

#

but the fog one

leaden dagger
#

shit right my bad

#

still either way

#

i dont think sleepers are controlled by the parasite

#

but something else entirely

analog frigate
#

yeah i think so too

leaden dagger
#

brought upon by the parasite

analog frigate
#

maybe just survival drive

leaden dagger
#

yeah

#

could be that

#

the brain was mutated down from our level

#

removal of the frontal lobe

#

leaving the stem and the more primitive parts of the brain

#

leaving just primal instinct

#

which would make sense since strikers heads are split in half

analog frigate
#

yeah yeah

#

that is a good point

leaden dagger
#

so without an actual conciousness, its just... there to live and protect its species

#

so it cant be evil in nature

#

just protective

analog frigate
#

seems right

solar nova
#

Respawn rooms do indicate that sleepers can create themselves, to some extent.

leaden dagger
#

the sacs yeah, i wonder what those imply

#

we know they reproduce to some extent

#

ok ok so

analog frigate
#

so it isn't a parasite at all

leaden dagger
#

hmm

analog frigate
#

just a species

leaden dagger
#

yes, as i was implying

analog frigate
#

very nice

solar nova
#

It's possible that humans are something like a "model" they follow, and they are just creating and integrating flesh to make it.

warm bronze
#

could the sacs be like, baby sleepers from when other squads got killed by the mother and they maybe make themselves cacoons to grow?

analog frigate
#

as to survive on the planet

leaden dagger
#

hm, im not sure

leaden dagger
#

incubators of sorts?

#

but that wouldnt explain how babies come straight out the mother and fight you

warm bronze
#

kind of like butterflies

#

but... violent

analog frigate
#

oooh

leaden dagger
#

maybe

analog frigate
#

to mature they need to get into a cocoon

leaden dagger
#

that could be

#

and in the cocoon state they can either be a shooter or striker

#

the puberty type thing i mentioned before

#

the constant respawn is probably just a game mechanic and beyond the functional lore

analog frigate
#

explains why they are not specifically either one until hatching

leaden dagger
#

but yes it makes sense

warm bronze
#

yeah like their mouth head closes or something, theyd probably take much longer to mature than strikers

leaden dagger
#

id say so

#

and then beyond that they can mature more into a big shooter or striker

#

in a life cycle that we cant determine

analog frigate
#

i could write it into a hypothetical part that makes sense but can't really be proved with what we have

leaden dagger
#

yeah thats the hardest part

analog frigate
#

thanks a lot ooopsie

leaden dagger
#

theories are easy but proof is hard

#

Oopsie comin in clutch

analog frigate
#

yeah

warm bronze
#

yeah, the older the sleeper the bigger it gets, maybe some select shooters are given something, like bees give baby workers royal jelly to create a queen- but for the scouts

warm bronze
leaden dagger
#

scouts may mutate based on some chemicals the sleepers emit, who can say

warm bronze
#

I love the gtfo lore so much it's so good
I cant even play the game but just the lore πŸ’›πŸ’›

leaden dagger
#

a lot of stuff could be explained through chemical reactions and shit that we just cant explain without, yknow, samples or proof

analog frigate
#

also it makes sense how scouts, mothers and tanks come to be

#

kinda like bees or ants

#

they start as larvae

leaden dagger
#

shadows are purely supernatural so lets not talk about those

analog frigate
#

yeah

analog frigate
warm bronze
#

maybe well get study logs in r6

analog frigate
#

very very interesting

leaden dagger
#

could be a sort of a heirarchy type thing that happens too

#

?

analog frigate
#

hmm

leaden dagger
#

like lions fight to decide king, something like that idk

analog frigate
#

maybe but we haven't seen such

leaden dagger
#

just a thought

analog frigate
#

probably not

leaden dagger
#

worth it to say it just in case lol

analog frigate
#

yup

leaden dagger
#

gotta think of everything

#

but yeah i think its probably some sort of chemical signal that happens

#

a big shooter will take on a protective role

#

and thus triggers a reaction to make the feelers

analog frigate
#

possibly

leaden dagger
#

cause all shooters have those spots on the back

#

where the feelers spout from

analog frigate
#

they communicate using low to mid frequency echolocation so

leaden dagger
#

so they all have the capability to be a scout

analog frigate
#

true

leaden dagger
#

damn this is getting interesting lol

analog frigate
#

yeah a lot of lore progress today

leaden dagger
#

chemicals could also explain how sleepers can wake when another is killed, similar to ants

#

how when an ant dies it releases chemicals to signal to take it to the death pile

#

so the ants go to the body and do so

solar nova
#

It does seem like the body they use probably doesn't matter, they're probably assigned "roles" that the species needs in order to function as a colony, and they're fitting that into the particular model they have (humans, in this case).
-Dark pigmented sleepers are likely to hunt actively, while pale pigmented sleepers are likely to rest and maintain control over areas.
-Strikers fill a front-line combat role while shooters fill a back-line combat role, with variations within those categories.
-Scouts and hybrids seem to serve special functions that connect hibernating and roaming sleepers. Scouts actively patrol areas where other sleepers hibernate, and, if alerted, they will call to roaming sleepers to help fight. Hybrids seem to drum up aggression in hibernating sleepers to get them to roam with them, resulting in packs of alert sleepers at some doors.

leaden dagger
#

good points good points

#

so maybe its similar to.. a wolf pack in some ways?

#

some designated hunters, can travel as a pack

analog frigate
#

seems like a bee hive or ant nest

leaden dagger
#

the protectors stay in the den with the smaller and weaker ones

#

yeah that too

#

lots of comparisons to nature we can make here

solar nova
#

I like the colony description.

leaden dagger
#

a lot of which communicate in specific movements or chemical releases and such

#

like how ants can be born with a specific head type to block the entrance to their hives too

analog frigate
#

true

leaden dagger
#

so its definitely a role-based species

#

with different functions that come about by the needs of the colonies

#

that's fucking AWESOME if you think about it

analog frigate
#

yeah dude

#

it actually makes completely sense to be a colony

leaden dagger
#

for real

analog frigate
#

very nice job devs

solar nova
#

They have two very broad "classes" that involve specific behavior, hibernation and roaming. They behave in distinctive ways, and can communicate with one another through specialized roles. Apart from the broad classes, there are also different functions in combat that sleepers can fill.

warm bronze
#

you could use bees as a really good example of this kind of thibg

leaden dagger
#

agreed Ray

#

and yeah

#

bees and ants are 2 really good comparisons

#

if the devs really thought everything through like this, they're honestly kinda genious

#

if we just pulled all this out of our asses, we're fuckin geniouses

#

and the devs need to hire us as storyline artists

analog frigate
#

i mean even if they intended it, we still figured it out

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

we are fucking big brain man

leaden dagger
#

literally

#

maybe the real monsters... were us all along...

analog frigate
#

actually maybe but not really

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

we are the ones who infiltrated their place

leaden dagger
#

i was makin a joke

#

but it kinda makes sense

analog frigate
#

but they are the ones who landed here on accident

leaden dagger
#

yeah, jokes on them

#

i hope we can get even a sprinkling of confirmation for any of this

#

i want my big shooter scout theory to be right

#

if it is thats SO FUCKING COOL

analog frigate
#

like the whole ant/bee colony type thing

leaden dagger
#

yeah

analog frigate
#

even a πŸ‘€ reaction

#

does a lot of good

harsh saffron
#

there you go

leaden dagger
#

thanks meat guy

harsh saffron
#

np

analog frigate
#

the question is: will the devs do also

leaden dagger
#

^

#

probably not

#

we know too much at this point

analog frigate
#

yeah

#

we can hope

leaden dagger
#

they would NOT let that much get confirmed

analog frigate
#

true

leaden dagger
#

which sucks

#

so ig we have to wait

#

lmao

#

(unless they pm us in private on a strict no talk policy πŸ‘€)

analog frigate
#

if we have to sign an NDA that's fine

leaden dagger
#

facts

analog frigate
#

but god the satisfaction

leaden dagger
#

i just want the peace of knowing lmao

#

hell, sign me to legion myself just to know

#

start a #SaveTheSleepers campaign

#

from inside the complex

#

maybe thats the whole LETTHEMSLEEP password

#

a hint that they're docile until disturbed

analog frigate
#

#SleepersWerePeopleToo

leaden dagger
#

lmaoo

analog frigate
#

"but are they?" vsauce intro plays

leaden dagger
#

man we'll have to deal with sleeper racism

analog frigate
#

probably

leaden dagger
#

what is.... sleep?

analog frigate
#

but let's not flood the channel with memes

leaden dagger
#

right right

#

imagine if they implemented good/bad karma like in the Metro series

#

good or bad decisions alter the way the game goes

#

that would be fuckin cool

analog frigate
#

so we have established that they are probably a colonial species like ants and bees, with roles established while in cocoons

leaden dagger
#

yessir

#

write this down before it disappears lmao

#

devs may delete it πŸ‘€

analog frigate
#

way ahead of you bud

leaden dagger
#

good shit bro

analog frigate
#

oo

#

greenred stopped typing

leaden dagger
#

ope

#

we hit the fuckin jackpot eh?

#

quick copy it all down!!

#

@analog frigate we should join some federal detective agencies at this point

analog frigate
#

nah that's a bit too far

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

they would've figured this out a while ago

#

we are just randos that really like the game

#

they are trained professionals

leaden dagger
#

to be fair i've only been into the lore for a week at this point

#

ive like 130 hours in game

analog frigate
#

i have 50

#

but i've watched so much to get everything possible

leaden dagger
#

damn you gotta pump those numbers up πŸ˜‚

analog frigate
#

i still have to deal with school

leaden dagger
#

me too

#

its wack shit

#

chase is responding to me

#

πŸ‘€

analog frigate
#

and rayalot is thankfully typing a lot, probably important stuff

solar nova
#

Birthers, I suspect, are probably meant to serve primarily a reproductive or "nest caring" role, where they manage the production of presumably more sleepers and place cocoons throughout the areas they maintain.

Chargers and tanks are just heavier units that can sustain a lot more damage, presumably to control higher-priority areas where the colony is best established more firmly. Hybrids fill this role as well in addition to serving social functions.

Shadows are... shadows. It seems as if they patrol only select areas of the complex, and hibernate in areas off the beaten path, being mixed with other sleeper variants less often. It's unclear what the lore for them is, they might just be a special variation of sleeper or they might be an investment into safety, where the sleepers themselves are meant to be harder to find and eradicate than their more obvious relatives.

devout geyser
#

cool i’ll look into that and add the new logs today

leaden dagger
#

^

analog frigate
#

just perfectly hiding

leaden dagger
#

last lines of defense

solar nova
#

Couldn't find many logs w/ the alias string, though. Would also be interesting to know if there's IDs that we don't have names for.

analog frigate
#

in odd areas that intruders might go through to avoid the regular sleepers πŸ€”

leaden dagger
#

like C1 extreme

analog frigate
#

exactly

#

they are almost exactly like traps

leaden dagger
#

some big brain plays coming in here

#

Ray with the deep shit, damn

analog frigate
#

yeah like damn

leaden dagger
#

good progress on the lore today gang

#

easy breezy

analog frigate
#

i will start writing about the system of sleepers then

leaden dagger
#

sounds good

analog frigate
#

the wording really just sounds like a nature documentary πŸ˜†

leaden dagger
#

πŸ˜‚ it does

#

it could be at this point

#

make a nice 40 minute documentary on it

analog frigate
#

i actually could

#

why not

#

like a 30 minute documentary of behaviour and biological analysis of sleepers

leaden dagger
#

that'd be cool af

#

yknow what GTFO reminds me of a lot? SCP containment breach, the old game

#

not the new unity remake

analog frigate
#

yeah

gilded vine
#

Hmmm "you should be ready at all times to receive the wardens orders. Are you prepared"

#

Something tells me

I swear if they drop 1.0 with no lead up on an anniversary or something this game will flop

totally not off topic

but true

#

It'd be amazing to hear Schaeffer commenting on the new expedition

#

Like him doing a monologue about how the place he's in is a gigantic mess while hinting that the said place is where R6 occurs

lilac island
#

what just you see him through some glass a security doorclose that you cant open

dim scroll
#

Ah yes

#

time to clip through the wall

#

I think hearing him through another door that's closed the moment you get in a zone would be nice as well

#

with an alarm triggering at the same time cuz schaeffer found it funny to do so

pastel knot
#

New objective, retrieve Schaeffer

dim scroll
#

Rescue Princess Schaeffer

😳

celest pagoda
#

Schaeffer makes me think of Doug Rattman from portal.

#

Crawling around a massive facility, losing his mind n all

pastel knot

ends up in hibernation too

Schaeffer hacking the cortex interface to give you new objectives would be kinda sick too

Or simply messing up with your HUD

finite vine
lilac island
#

so warden is a trojan virus confirmed

finite vine
#

I think this is what is happening. allow external execution is set to true, so someone might be controlling it from the outside

solar nova
#

So it's trying to execute a "seek_and_destroy" module?

finite vine
#

also exclusion extension is .wrdn

pure ferry
finite vine
#

yea I think BIOCOM might of detected an infiltration by the wrdn, tried to initiate seek_and_destroy module, failed, then all of these permissions were changed, and external execution was allowed with the .wrdn extension.

solar nova
#

This also means its official name is WRDN.

finite vine
#

yep

pure ferry
#

You'll note that network file scans and removeable drive scanning has been disabled, while external network access is still disabled

shame, no countdown yet

pure ferry

Someone plugged in the changes in person

is someone familiar with this code or it's just nonsense

#

real pewter
#

not morse

#

or

#

could be

pure ferry
#

I can make no sense of it. It's certainly not standard code, but it may have some meaning in the string

soft stone
#

there's no + or > in morse

pastel knot
#

I mean encoded morse

finite vine
#

pasting the command into google gives the result of a programming language called brainfuck...

soft stone
#

yeah

pure ferry
#

Could be some kind of interger string from a loop

pastel knot
#

doesn't seem like it

#

but could also be

pure ferry
#

You'll note that some parts of the text seem to 'grow'

pure ferry
#

Trying to piece it together seems kinda pointless though since, without context, it might as well be meaningless

solar nova

It might be the case that everything besides . and - is meaningless, and it is morse.

it actually looks a lot like brainfuck thou.

real pewter
pure ferry
#

It's probably got errors in the code

real pewter
#

we do have + in morse code

pure ferry
#

If you change a + the whole string changes

real pewter
#

but > don't have any means?

pure ferry
solar nova
#

We might be missing something, or we're supposed to decode the end result.

#

That site doesn't seem to recognize all of the characters, either.

pure ferry
#

Yeah and the result outputs in a way that seems to break the page HTML, cuz i don't think the result supposed to go outside of the assigned text box

#

I don't want to manually decode that crap though, it looks awful, so that's the line where my curiosity and my laziness meet

real pewter
#

i'll just put it in notepad++ and change it

#

so, what's + mean?

#

i still don't understand the above "machine operation":

pure ferry
#

It's a way of encoding text

#

If i've understood it correctly, imagine a long line of cells that looks like this:
[0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0]
Now each of those symbols is an operation. You can add, substract, move to the left, move to the right and a few other operations

#

'+' is add one to current cell
'-' is subtract one
'>' is move right
'<' is move left

real pewter
#

ok

Is . = print

#

And it's not print in ASCII, but a standard alphabet

fervent lagoon
#

so 0=a, 1=b, 2=c, etc?

pure ferry
#

yeah basically, although i think a=1

celest pagoda
#

to note, after the 70 there is a LOT of zeros, but I dont think thats too significant

#

with the zeros the output is

pure ferry
#

So:
++++++++.+.
= hi

holy shit

πŸ˜‚

#

ive never been good with codes, gl guys

fervent lagoon
#

good plan

pure ferry
#

google brainfuck and then you're as well informed on this as i am (which is to say, not very)

#

yeah

#

to be more specific, it's a program that outputs text

granite pebble
pure ferry
#

the registry is just the memory states it uses to get to the text printed

celest pagoda
#

ok ill brb

pure ferry
#

so basically, stop at every "." and read the number at the current register, print the letter associated with that number, then keep going till the next "."

leaden dagger
#

that's so much math lmao

rich blaze
#

I mean, the txt posted does it for every line

#

with memory states and output

celest pagoda
#

granted, theres only one of [ and ] in there

rich blaze
#

It's basically a loop to be on 8 bytes of memory

pure ferry
#

Ah i see what amanes says

#

The initial code is 'corrupted'

#

What should be '-' are hyphens. Some of the '.' are '...' characters

rich blaze
#

yes

#

and we cleared that

#

and we translated it

#

with the text fil being the output

pure ferry
#

did you take "..." to mean 3 * "."?

rich blaze
#

yup

fervent lagoon
#

created a program real quick to run this through it manually, heres what I got:

0 5 5 5 0 9 2 2 0 6 0 6 7 6 6 7 30 1 3 9 13 13 12 3 6 13 2 11 11 12 10 12 30 14 10 13 21 2 21 7 20 25 7 2 30 12 29 29 2 31 19 31 19 18 33 18 20 30 29 35 38 21 2 33 37 33 32 35 37 13 37 37 36 15 30 21 36 21 35 2 37 21 20 1 24 39 24 23 26 28 15 3 30 28 35 28 39 38 30 3 29 39 34 34 30 38 38 39 42 42 42 38 41 38 41 40 40 3 40 42 46 15 5 17 4 30 44 46 46 45 2 50 49 47 47 53 30 53 55 55 47 2 60 52 60 52 51 62 41 51 62 62 43 ```
real pewter
#

what does this mean

fervent lagoon
#

excellent question

rich blaze
#

This doesn't seem in line with our findings

fervent lagoon
#

heres the rules I was using, they may be wrong:

+   add 1
-   subtract 1
>   move right 1
<   move left 1
[   if current is 0, skip to ]
]   if current is non-0, skip backwards to [
.   print current location
rich blaze
#

You forgot the original values of the memory slots it seems

fervent lagoon
#

wdym

rich blaze
#

look the file above

#

our memory bytes starts with predetermined values
