and tell my if this is all correct
This video goes over the GTFO Lore from Rundowns 1 to 4, it also talks about the back story of the sleepers in GTFO as well as the reason we are in a massive complex in the game.
Thank you guys so much. I did a much better job and put in way more time into this video and I am working on the next one which will go over GTFO R5-R6 Lore. Sorry for...
i just finished my new video of R1-R4 and im starting to work on R5-R6 just wanna make sure this video makes snese
if you watch it lmk of anything i missed dont be afraid ot @ me
Can anybody give me a summary of Rundown 1-5s lore?
My and my friends have never made it very far in a rundown, mostly due to scheduling incompatability, but we've got some more people willing to play so we actually might get this one
Let's see
But we don't have a clue what happened in the last 5
Without spoiling ofc
Nothing from this rundown if you please
Sure
Basically the game occurs 30 ( or 40 ? anyway it's several decades ) after an incident that occured in the complex we're sent in
According to the logs there was an attack of sleepers & the such which caused the complex to go into lockdown
with several instructions such as shutting down reactors
Time passed by & everyone in the complex died
(excluding those in HSUs as i don't really know if they're considered alive or not)
HSU?
There's also the matter of that one of the characters talks about in the very first trailer for the game, way back in 2017, how its all basically like a dream that repeats.
yeah
And that he can't remember why they, the other members of his group, look at him with such anger.
Ah, ok
There are mentions of a virus named NAM-V & a parasite as well
Supposedly NAM-V became a pandemic with a high mortality rate
As well as the whole thing with this Cortex system.
Do we still know what it is, really?
not really
For me, it feels like that it could be that the characters are being put in bodies kept in the HSU pods, as in their consciousness.
But it may be something like transfering "memories" or "soul" into clones or some similar stuff
That is what I was thinking.
Anyway the warden (who seems to be an AI called BIOCOM) sends us into the complex for various tasks
That their "souls" or "memories" are stored in this Cortex system and then put in these clone bodies or whatever.
BIOCOM who was initially used to help employees in the complex & started becoming autonomous and going crazy
As if its sole objective is to destroy the sleepers
Without caring about anyone else
In the meanwhile we have schaeffer who seems to be an escaped prisoner and has been roaming into the complex for several rundowns (i know he already did back in R4, don't know about the previous ones)
watch my video
Who is also crazy af and just wanna fuck up the warden
@crisp lance
also
im working on a new vido for the chacters that are present
and im lookin at the wiki
Oh also each prisoners has a reason for being there
Like was it dauda who started a genocide ?
What’s bishops reason
I saw that one shot a bunch of marines
And I get the feeling that we will learn more about this "other world" that we see when picking up, for example, that matter device in the first expedition for this rundown.
Idk which one it is that also studied NAM-V
Bishop ig since he's mentioned on santonian's website
Ah, there are some profiles about them on the website.
thats woods
"Woods, Isaiah F-2056
Isaiah Woods was a religious man of honor and courage who saw too much. The brutality of combat changed him from a spiritual man to a ticking time bomb. When his fuse finally burned down, he went on a rampage and justified it as divine retribution for the evils he saw around him. Even now, with no memory of the carnage he wrought, he feels the presence of God flowing through him. Some fires burn too deep to smother."
"Dauda, Abeo T-3701
A brilliant young mind. A groundbreaking researcher. A pillar of the scientific community. Nigerian-born psychopharmacologist Abeo Dauda was all of those things before his obsessive ambition broke his moral compass. Dauda’s blindness to the human cost of his experiments made him indispensable to unscrupulous drug companies. As long as they stayed out of his way, he didn’t question them. By the time he realized the depravity of the people he worked for, it was too late."
"Hackett, Aiden O-4711
The first person to admit Hackett isn’t cut out for this world is Hackett. Even as a child, his feral mind was a deadly force. When he joined the military, discipline loosened the grip of his dark impulses, but nature always finds a way. Inevitably, Hackett’s instinctive cruelty was unleashed on a peacekeeping mission that couldn’t have gone more wrong. Clear-eyed about his actions, Hackett knew that redemption would cost him life as he knew it."
dauda was supposedly a doctor who locked himself in the HSU to protect himself then itwent toteh wrong section
"Bishop, Frank GO-1395
A lifetime ago, Frank Bishop made a losing bet. He’d robbed, kidnapped, and trafficked in a bid for fortune and power. This time, it was blackmail, but things didn’t go to plan. His target turned the tables, condemning him to years of brutal captivity. The torture and deprivation he endured ended with Bishop suffering an even worse fate: Hydrostasis. Now, unable to remember the man who destroyed him, he’s left with only the rage and mistrust that sustained his tragic existence. "
this isnt true
anymore
as it shows in the new audio files
Interesting.
They might need to change that then on the website.
as a secuirty officer
yeah
im gonna work on that tmr
and getting a full explanation of each character updated so we udnerstand
them
And again, this was what I found on the game's official website.
I wonder if the devs aren't being a bit more straightforward regarding lore
once i get everything written down
they arent
they wnat you to die
dig*
xd
and they want you to make theories that will be proven in new rundowns
like a lot of theories have stemed off of what these things are in R6 like this planet and stuff and wether its a dimensions but no one knows
and we have to wait for the devs to annouce it
Yeah, I saw that in the first 2 missions
Hmmmms like Joseph Joestar
Btw do you still need to understand the first couple of rundowns?
Do you have a lore series?
Yes
I got 1-4 and 5-6 will be out hopefully tmr or the day after
This video goes over the GTFO Lore from Rundowns 1 to 4, it also talks about the back story of the sleepers in GTFO as well as the reason we are in a massive complex in the game.
Thank you guys so much. I did a much better job and put in way more time into this video and I am working on the next one which will go over GTFO R5-R6 Lore. Sorry for...
Btw do we know what's the thing at the end of D1 ?
your mother
epic
I take it, experimenting with teleportation is the cause of the infection at this point? I mean, where it came from anyway...
This story is fascinating. Im so lost though 👀
it's a lot to keep up with lmao
Well in r5 bishop audio it was hinted he was a worker for santonian or kds and tried to uncover some secrets from some VIP....so he became....disposable
He was taken hostage for 3 years as a hostage and once santonian took him back, they deleted his past and personal data and put him into hsu
Now in this rundown it's obvious he was a general ( that why he was into a warzone)
So...why it's that not true?
🤔
IN r6
THERE IS AUDIO
sorry caps lock
that says
he was sgt for KDS
Unless its a different bishop he was a security officer
Oh yeah I said general....well sarge yeah
As mentioned in the c1 logs
It would be needlessly confusing for there to be two Bishops, I think
But in previous audios from r5 it was never hinted he was a doctor or military, just a worker of dreifus industries
Kds is a company of dreyfus
is htre any proof of that?
Yeah, the audios on r5 lol
The four audio logs in R5A2. There's dozens of corrupted log files but four of them are playable, they are the four that have a much larger size than the others.
Rundown 5 seems more lore heavy by this point, looking forward to what future lore gets revealed.
0:00 Woods' Audio Log
4:22 Bishop's Audio Log
8:24 Dauda's Audio Log
12:30 Hackett's ...
Log 2
because i have proof of KDS trying to use leverage on Santonian indsutries tyo get hired as their security team for it
so why would they do that
if they have the same parent company
He was kept as a prisioner for 3 years in a warzone, now make sense he was a sarge
Yup, but what this guy says?
"Bishop, Frank GO-1395
A lifetime ago, Frank Bishop made a losing bet. He’d robbed, kidnapped, and trafficked in a bid for fortune and power. This time, it was blackmail, but things didn’t go to plan. His target turned the tables, condemning him to years of brutal captivity. The torture and deprivation he endured ended with Bishop suffering an even worse fate: Hydrostasis. Now, unable to remember the man who destroyed him, he’s left with only the rage and mistrust that sustained his tragic existence. "
Its not false
He was taken into hsu because he tried to uncover some santonian secrets
He was "deleted" from every document or paper, his identity deleted too, and they took him into hydrostasis
He was blackmailing some big dude at santonian or dreyfus
The fact that now we know that he was a sarge does not make everything else false 🤔
Presumably he's a KSO in the B1 audio, iirc the logs mentioning Bishop (implicitly) are very old.
EXTREMELY old, actually.
So he's absolutely a KSO in the B1 audio.
He looks as though he's surprised he's caught
so what is the... for lack of a name, "nemesis" in D-1? is it a organism, did someone create it?
@analog frigate so the nam-v doesn't mutate but it is the global pandemic currently going on and did it come from gargantua known as gargantuan fever?
u mean the squid-stuff boss at the end of D1?
I guess that's more like some sort of alien creature..
“The native inhabitants of Planet Alpha”
Anyone had word log for the final audio log in D1?
It is named Kraken as far as I can see on the wiki right now it's like a guardian on Red Alpha the planet you get teleported to
But devs said it was not aliens
Or am I crazy?
I heard simon or some dev in a video saying something like "they are not aliens, they are not zombies, they are something darker...."
🤨
parasites
I don't think it's that neither the virus
If it was the virus, planet earth would be covered in sleepers
🤔
Maybe its contained
its not 'just' outside it's some kind of other dimension thingly
Yup
Interdimentinal Virus
So I think there are several viruses or something else separate from the nam-v
Nam-v is I think the global pandemic mentioned in A1 log
But something else is causing mutations
global pandemic… hmmm… seems familiar.
covid-19
sort of
i have classes rn so i will answer fully later
So do we know anything about the mysterious white creature schaeffer saw? Besides the fact that it predates the outbreak.
where does he mention this?
@icy swift c2 the security door at the start to the left. Where there's a bunch of fog repellers theres a terminal with an audio log. tldr is he saw a white creature w blue veins walking around trying to talk. He's going to try and kill it the next time he sees it.
gotcha, havent done c2 yet but i'll look out for it
One of the logs mention how this one is much worse than Covid19-21, let's just hope it ends this year 😬
what are the symptoms of Nam-V?
lol creature just wants to have a chat and he's gonna just go kill it
ok so
yes
it's the Kraken on Red Alpha
The logs mention hallucinations and ossification of the cartilages

Growing Concern over NAM-V
by Duncan Keith
Saturday night at the Manchester Royal Infirmary. Usually, the emergency room sees a steady influx of patients. It’s busy; but no more than they can handle. the Infirmary is well staffed and stoc...
they never said that, they are in fact aliens
the regular sleepers are mostly mutated humans
The sleepers are not aliens, but the floaties are
it is in fact not the virus that caused the sleepers to be, but it is the virus that fucked the entire world
correct
not in A1, it's the santonian terminal
technically yes, but NAM-V is the main one and if there are other ones, it would be the thing that causes humans to mutate into sleepers, which as far as we know hasn't spread further than Garganta
probably something we will see during the expansion
that should be everything unless i need to clear some answer up
then you can just ask :)
Some say it’s a parasite that turns you into a sleeper, explaining the striker’s toothed tentacles and the intestine-looking stuff
Unless those are just intestines
it's probably the intestines since they tilt forward when they attack, as if their stomach area is contracting
currently that's a theory but we don't have enough proof to prove anything
sucks to be infected by it
yes
also another thing that is currently speculation is that NAM-V could cause sleeper mutations
in the log they say that they don't know the long term effects
it's a possibility and seeing the surface of earth can lead to a conclusion
Nam could be the thing in the air on the other side of the portal
Idk I heard there being something
but Nam is prolly in the deeper levels
the parasite is still unknown though
Logs say people die in 5 weeks, if it’s the virus that makes you a sleeper something doesn’t trigger it on the surface
Sunlight?
All the sleepers in the complex are the workers left there? Though apparently new ones can be born too
what does the spitter spit at you anyway
yes they seems mutated
new ones can be born since
genetics
I mean some are not mutated humans
some aren't
like the babies, and the cocoon made ones
I mean you can see multiple body parts on the tank and the mother
true
but again, genetics
they have incorporated a part of human dna into themselves
We didn’t learn about the sleepers in biology
The thing I'm wondering is
well me and dagga have been trying to learn that
How are the meatballs and the gigantic squids created
Are they native, or just another species that got consumed by the plague
so until we learn more about it it's only assumptions
they do not attack sleepers though, that says something
they are part of the same species
Or they carry native germs
like, they have adapted to it but it reacts wierdly with humans
and how does the squid float above ground
we have mainly theorised that they are filled with some lighter than air gas
balanced to float in the air, and they fly by using their tentacles
seems the likely option since when they die they just go pop!
squid just falls down though
as in?
or yea, our weapons are not powerful enough to kill it normally
the Kraken you mean?
yea
ah well i'm not completely sure it's flying
sader says so but it doesn't make sense
it's too split open to be filled with light gas
and if it has wings they would be massive
the only thing i can imagine is that it's a giant worm
or whatever ravenna doesn't want to say in the server calls it
it is flying
you can see that it's main body ends down to a bunch of large tendrils that hang down underneath it
R6C3, does “sys-purge” mean the Warden purges itself in software or clean out the complex system?🤔
it's related to Garganta's systems
yeah the kraken is some weird shit lmao
we had the theory almost perfect and then flyers come in to the mix
Does someone know what does scaffer says on D1 cause the audio bug showed up at the last moment for me
from what I gathered he's losing his mind more and becoming more paranoid and he thinks we might be the warden lol
I knows it’s baseless speculation, but I think it would be neat if the other planet were future earth, and the flyers were mutated human biomass
Yeah absolutely, I haven’t finished the rundown, just tossing ideas
Kind of odd that R6 was before R5
Somni are you gonna get your bots to do stuff?
Oh something I forgot to say maybe the wardens goal is to modify the genetic code of neonates to be immune to nam-v
possibly
Cause we still don't know the wardens goal with that genome we obtained
true
That would be mindblowing hahahaha
is red alpha and Mars the same thing?
im asking cause of that log
oh wait its probably the name of the mission, im dumb
😂😂
red alpha is the planet that you go to
mars is another planet that you don't go to
Anyone know what’s going on in D4? Are the teleportations real or just hallucinations?
very real. touching the "unsheilded" artifacts causes it
stuff like the data cubes. matter wave projector, and presumably the things inside the artifacts themselves. but iirc those have a special resin coating that prevents it
Specifically the crystals like what you see in the other place. Presumably they act as an anchor or even somehow exist in both places at once. Coming into contact with them allows you to temporarily switch places
Before you know it, we're gonna be in Chernobyl.
"I said come in, don't stand there!"
yes, in a door log it was said that two workers disappeared instantly after touching an uncoated crystal
they most likely switch your position yes, but not with other crystals, but just with the particles in a certain area
quantum entanglement explains it
Hey anyone able to get the voice logs from C1?
if you can hmu
i think rayalot recorded them if i'm not mistaken
@solar nova sorry for the @ but you got them?
The ambient stuff?
Naw, unfort.
I have two C2 audio logs and one B1 audio log (from Brazil).
Anyone else notice how similar the log on terminal ||305|| in C1, I think, is to describing the Warden, it could possibly actually be the Warden, because the Warden doesn't worry about the ethics behind it's actions, only the effectiveness. And we are only just getting human operators during missions.
atleast it was that terminal for me when i attempted it
this is the log, BIOCOM fits the wardens description and basically seems to answer why the warden behaves the way it does
we've already comfirmed BIOCOM is the Warden
fuck i'm late
😂
have you guys discussed the research outpost like area on B1
wdym? like on the other planet?
where?
i wasn't paying attention someone i was running with while i was streaming told me so
i think there was a log i missed
ah, yeah i dont think its been confirmed yet
oh
lots of speculation though
well that planet has a very similar terrain to that of around New Mexico, maybe even around Nevada
unless @analog frigate knows something i dont
very true, we're not quite certain what it is
those rock formations look very familiar
nicknamed it Planet Alpha or Alpha One
they do yuh
you could very well be right, its very hard to know though lmao
the lore seems a bit... scattered this rundown
There is a geographic location in a desert with that exact rock formation and cave system placement, which if i remember right it's called the "Silent Zone" or something
it could make sense that its a future earth since plant samples died upon travelling
on jah? can u find pics of it or something?
that sounds mad cool
Basically all electronic equipment just doesn't properly work, like compasses and other stuff. but with how advanced we are in GTFO, it is possible we found a way to shield our electronic equipment
Yeah i'll see if i can find one
oh wild, so is it like an electromagnetic fucky zone?
proof?
how would it not?
it can be across any distance
not necesarily bound to a multiverse theory
if we dont have proof of this one, we cant confirm anything
quantum does not mean multiverse confirmed
idk i think it has to be acorss unvieres
are you sure?
look it up even
i have too
yes
it can literally be across any distance, yes universes included but not limited to.
i dont know whati have read was it must be across unvieres
I couldn't find one of the cave system but i found one of the pillars of rock you see when you grab the Matter Projector
and surrounding terrain when you enter the area
is that the real life comparison?
yes
cause yeah that looks very similar
heres a basic explanation: "
Quantum entanglement is one of the uber-bizarre phenomena seen when things get itty-bitty, or inside the quantum realm. When two or more particles link up in a certain way, no matter how far apart they are in space, their states remain linked. That means they share a common, unified quantum state."
so. not exclusive to universes. any distance.
"Zone of Silence" it is in mexico, coincidentally we are in mexico when we do whatever the Matter Projector does
the matter projecter, well, projects matter lmao
idk im not an expert bouta go to college just to understand the lore
through space and/or time
i'm not blaming you mate you're fine 😂 misunderstandings happen bro
it gets confusing
especially quantum shit
"if you think you understand quantum physics; you dont understand quantum physics"
also places on Earth can look very other worldly, like this other place in Mexico with red dunes
oooo
thats pretty
yeah so far im leaning more towards future earth tbh
makes a bit more sense than other planet
just specifics wise
uhh as far as we know its just Nam-V going around
so yes, you're right
not fully post-apoc yet
you're all good
Yeah, but the Zone of Silence could also explain why we don't see civilization, and if it is in another dimension it would explain those Topaz like crystals, we know those aren't Topaz or amethyst because of how deep a purple it is, and how they are above surface in such a large number. It also doesn't appear to be eroded, which means it has a stronger resistance than either crystals
that took a while to type
Its "maw" looks a lot like a sleeper's mouth, and when it spawns it does a sleeper-esque glow.
lmao
yuh
at this point thats been ruled out
me and @analog frigate basically confirmed that sleepers are a seperate species
you guys have to consider D4 in all of this
with hive-mind like behaviour, similar to ants or bees
havent gotten there yet, been busy. what does it entail?
cause D4 isnt main-story based
teleports you to alternate complexs
The world is essentially becoming the sleepers, reinforcing it is a highly contagious pathogen, i no longer use antigen for the fact that we can easily rule out bioweapon and artificial virus. at least i think, don't quote me on this, someone correct me if i am wrong and the world is safe
hm
how it works is there are 5 'sections'
the first and last ones are 'real' (map works)
pretty sure the world is safe. it was Nam-V that escaped and spread
the 3 in between are, different
weird
i cant understand
what the fuck quantom engtanglment is
i understand that they get entangled
the electrons
but how do they teleport to eachtoehr
orwahever
magik
ok, i still think what creates the sleepers is an antigen then since it could be artificial
so basically
but then how do they move
Something about a quantum field in which two particles have correlated spins.
Roughly that.
Quantum teather in the voice lines.
idk weird shit
Not entanglement.
no, not quite. the initial sleepers were formed from mutations from a parasite-virus tag team situation. eventually sleepers became their own species
thats the TL;DR
dagga do you know?
know what?
@glacial idol if you need a catch up on lore dm me
like how they bring them together
i like how when i'm right i second guess myself
like the particles
thats the part we dont know yet. but must be explained in the quantum tethering they mentioned
probably a different made up quantum state or action that they used to explain it
which is BASED on quantum entanglement
😂 happens all the time man you're fine
a longer explanation was: at first a virus would alter DNA strands to allow a parasite to infect a person and cause furthur mutations; transforming them into sleepers. eventually sleepers found some way to reproduce without the parasitic transfer (evident by mothers, the sacs, etc.)
they take on a hive-mind type system similar to ants or bees
dedicated roles, etc
and they mutate or evolve depending on what the system needs
so essentially what happens is
Ok
baby strikers are birthed from the mother
they mature and go through "puberty" in the respawn sacs, which can transform them into shooters or strikers
beyond that, they have a cycle
Also anyone wanna work with me sometime this week on getting updated character lore?
they can become big shooters and big strikers
Because bishop def needs a change on the wiki
big shooters can become scouts, taking on a protective motherly role, if the need arises
(all shooters have the pores that the feelers can sprout from)
and thats the gist of it
its actually really fucking cool
likely based on chemical releases, similar to ants
got all that? @glacial idol 😂
yo I was right in run down one hell yeah
epic
shadows are purely sci-fi, cant really explain em
flyers, our current theory stands that they are full of some lighter-than-air gas that keeps them afloat
movement is guided by their tentacles
as for the kraken, nothing solid yet
the new creatures are just weird
Would anyone be down to help me with C3 I’m trying to look for lore I have a theory
Beans.
actually we can, the shadows are oqaque, only being able to be seen with the light. Well it could be the fog in combination with the light that allows us to see them, we can kill them, and they can kill us, so they're real. They are very photosensitive, more so than the sleepers, so there's that. It's possible the light they reflect is not in the visible light spectrum of us, at all. They could only give off IR or another light wave frequency we can't see.
So we could just be seeing their shadows
so their name could quite literally be what we see
hmm i suppose that could be true
They could contain helium or just shot air out to the ground to allow them to fly like a vtol idk
or hydrogen
yeah my 1st thought was helium as well
it's most likely hydrogen, since whenever we kill them they explode in a way that makes it seem like hydrogen igniting
and since it's the lightest element we know, it would allow them to float
yuh yuh
i forgot about this one
Idk i'll have to fight it to see how it behaves first, though maybe it is an entity formed from the merging of multiple large biomass bodies, into one and still uses hydrogen, it's possible those tumors are how it filters hydrogen from the environment to it.
or the tumors contain the floaters
yuh maybe
Whether it's future Earth or an alien planet, I think its really cool that the Other place looks so earth-like. Adds to the uncanny eeriness. Very very good sound design in this game, the wind howling through the caverns in B1 could easily have been monsters hootin' & hollerin'
Hey, does anyone know if there's an upload of the audio log at the end of R6D1? Extracted half way through it
Hm.. so the D4 are mostly hallucinations based?
maybe idk. i just mean the first and 5th sections are in the real area. you can use your map, extract, etc
is it possible that there are more than one kraken in the dunes?
The name of d4 means something along the lines of forgetting things you already know and thinking they’re you’re own idea. Maybe the in between are old memories we have, of doing this exact thing before.
Cause doesn’t schaffer say something about “waking up” and we “aren’t what we think of we” in one of the audios from the main tier missions.
only the first and the end part of d4 is real
waht do the prisoneer's eat?
scout spaghetti
no like geniunlt
scout spaghetti
i don't know much more than you
also yes it's in another dimension
they are a separate evolved species
originally to survive on red alpha
then using human dna to survive on earth
the future earth theory is possible but there aren't enough signs pointing towards it
maybe i will have to play d1 again to see the night sky and if the stars make sense
also the new facility in d4 probably is just another part of garganta
since we have the same markings and everything
it is a tampered data cube which explains why it teleports us there and not red alpha
there most likely are more since it wouldn't make sense for there to be only one near alpha 1
current issue with the kraken is that big crack in the middle
all the tentacles add mass and i really don't know how it can float
there just doesn't seem to be enough space within it for it to be filled with the lightest gasses we know
seems like best theory is just another fantasy material which is a super light gas
also it shoots barrages of mortar like fire from the top at points and by the third law of motion it should move but it doesn't
physics are unfortunately not very common in this new rundown
🤔 did their cortex interface connections malfunctioned so the memories evoked
idk, i wanna find the logs in the terminals and read them, they might have inside info on whats going on in the complex.
i wanna finish D1, D2, D3, D4, C2, C3 so I can get the lore but none of my friends will get on i hate this
Wait for the YouTubers lol
question; do we know exactly what infected the sleepers?
my working theory is that it's a sort of tapeworm that is non-native to infesting our species; since the nodes and lumps look like cysticercoses in tapeworm infections;
If you want to get all physics-y, you can’t just fill things with lighter and lighter stuff and it will float. Even if it was a rigid balloon “filled” with vacuum, it can’t lift more than the weight of the displaced air. So there’s probably something else making them float
ahhhhh question wasn't bishop a programmer?
true
as far as i remember about the HSUs, no matter what happens, the inside person's memory deteriorates
and that's the main issue with them
a
with the introduction of red alpha, there might be some creature we don't see that infects people
@analog frigate would be offended
this
who
what person posted this
Also put gameplay as easy
probably only played A1
lol half of the players that i seen saying they played A1 didn't even check the terminals for the audio log
such noobs
imagine not going to every terminal and doing logs
Trueeeee
they probably don't even know how to use a terminal since "ooh i'm not supposed to check anything" "where titorial
"
^^ whenever i play A1 (CAUSE IM A F**KING TEACHER DONT KNOW WHY PPL DONT GET THAT) i let the plays figure out the keycard with the top left helping massage
dont anyone that says oh game doesn't give you directions shut tf up
1.0 has been so kind to new players
i also have ppl that done A1 but never heard the log so ya
We barely got any direction, and now they have so many things that are just handing them lore
i know scaler would agree
1.0 is literally introducing a titorial with A1
and all the reminders on the top left
ya and some say oh thats not a titorial
h o w
the game literally takes your hand and guides you through some easy stuff in A1
the game isn't even that hardcore like in R5 the new players were struggling coming in A2 and A3
It should be toned down a bit in future rundowns and levels
I dont need the game telling me to open the door everytime on D3
lol
ah yes, less than 4 and you die
skill issue
anyway let's stop chatting about this in here
solo players want to know your loc
agree
bots my beloved 😔
R2C2
R6D4
yes?
the garganta systems aren't updated
an error for illegal access attempt to the system would be the same
the attempted instruction could be the same
since it could be just some infiltration command
Hmm but wouldn’t the code after “AT” be something different since they are intruding different area of the complex?
where exactly?
The 548CA92F1D79E2DC
hmm
interesting
but what exactly is that checksum/code name
it could be something else than a zone
but a system location
or something similar
isn't the checksum a way to identify transmissions ?
I was thinking since in R2 they are intruding refinery-storage area and now R6 they are going into data centre-lab area, the coordinate code should be different if they really got an warning by the Garganta system.
So looks like most of the sections in the level are hallucinations 
hmm
Or the devs made a mistake & forgot to change it 😳
🤔
.
we'll see after the stream
It’s all a bad acid trip
There were mentions of the warden/BIOCOM acting by itself for some reason
Maybe cuz he has a very specific objective & wanna clear it at any cost
even if that means yeeting the complex out of existence
yes, the warden fucks up, reason is given in R6B1, there is a terminal with an email from BIOCOM's lead engineer directly mentioning that a lack of direct access to the complex will cause there to be a huge amount of objectives for operators better handled by automation, stuff like turning on reactors, bioscans, terminal use. also mentioned is that as a result, operator deaths and failure rate would skyrocket, all of which reflects directly as to why the prisoners are having to do bioscans with alarms and all this nonsense when an AI with a vast knowledge of everything in the complex would reasonably be able to control everything. BIOCOM, and thus, the warden, have minimal system access, and so has to do it's best with no security clearance, leading to fuckups as a result and leading to a high prisoner fatality rate.
there's definitely a difference between the warden and BIOCOM, but how and where that line is drawn is super murky right now. i was also convinced wholly that the warden was a group, that trailer where woods says "get what the warden want" and not "get what the warden wants" was something that made me think that
but it would appear that whatever the warden is, it WAS BIOCOM at some point, a decision intelligence based around surveying current circumstances and making educated objective lists for operatives based on those circumstances
also, base on the email logs in R5A3, and the audio logs of dr. stokes from R6C1, schaeffer witnessed what the matter wave projector did, and was given to the legion program for it
i looked over at the wiki for it
but schaeffer's employee code was C067, which was mentioned as one of the two witnesses to someone disappearing as they touched the matter wave projector by dr. stokes in C1, along with C085 but we dont know who that is to my knowledge
alright lads
time to remove the lore mole tag
i think i'm known well enough that my goal and role is known
but there still will be lore
Anyone got that log from D1 near the reactor room? The audio transcript
i posted the transcript a while ago
let me find it
here
i think it's this one
It's a diff one, something about hallucinations
I think it could tie back to the 2 Schaeffer logs irc about the transcripts convo
We used to think matter couldn't be created or destroyed, the hadron collider does that, as well as creates energy. It's possible this does that in a more controlled way and can disburse the energy into keeping it a float
also me hoping my infared hypothesis is right about the scouts or i feel stupid
wait that could also be how we are transported, we are literally in a somewhat safer version of a hadron collider(from the surroundings it looks so in B1), that might be what the Matter Projector does, and it channels the immense amount of energy created as a product of the collision of particles and their anti-particles into transporting us. idk how it would work, but I feel as though the crystal has something to do with it, and the flyers and kraken could do something similar
what i think i recognize that, it might be a encoded message, i'll have to figure out the cipher to try it, look after those entries. How has nobody noticed this
ofc that is late reply but i can confirm, we started in R5 and tried A1 for 2 evenings before we made it lol
it's not a hedron collider at all
2 workers disappeared from touching the crystal only
without any equipment around
i believe the teleporting room is for controlling the location
what infared hypothesis
in C1 when we collect the third data cube we teleport into some kind of an outpost, does that mean that they had some research stuff going on there?
I though they just found it by accidently teleporting inside
the same outpost in d1
is there a updated summary-like thingy for the lore
currently five has some videos
I kinda want to translate it into chinese for my Taiwanese community
wait i remember some audio log about them sending bishop with the team inside that Alpha 1 dimension and them did come back apparently?
he did
yeah since he is one of the main characters
there is another audio log from a door that says he somehow appeared back holding the wave transmitter
not saying anything about how he got back
but did they manage to install an outpost there and made some research work?
since we get in one in C1
yes they did
you mean wave projector>
?
The mystery thickens down in the Complex with that second expedition now.
As in Hexahedrons.
yup
Spam!
<@&408548765599793173>
i've been away from the game for a while. Is Schaefer the guy who talks to us in A1 and D1?
yes
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm @analog frigate i sense tea
Okay. I missed the very end of the audio log in C2. Does anyone know what the person he's talking to says at the end?
I had very high infection and my teammates were yelling at me to get a move on
There is. After it says "We are not so different" Theres a long moment of silence and then he asks "are you a prisoner" (no answer) "are you human" "I'm-"
Schaffer and the creature he told b4
there's another voice log that Schaffer said "it...try to talk...to anyone, to no one" and "the voice that doesn't belong to it"
also said "...white, blue vein and paper skin...almost human, almost"
I belive the voice log just stopped right there [
no sheafer told us his going to kill it next time he sees it
sooo the thing is most likely dead
scheafer doesn't fuck around much
"the voice that doesn't belong to it" part implies that whatever that thing is, it has the possibility to "speak" in a voice that is not their own. So, sound mimicry maybe? And if that is the case, how do we know its not the creature mimicking schaffe at one point or another?
Just a theory, a game theory
so was the resist terminal ever found? the one that was supposed to be below 1100 meters
it's at R5C3 iirc
or C2
there was a terminal with password
actually
it can be opend lol
it's just a terminal with password
inside there was a voice log record by scheaffer
oh did someone post it already?
yep
ill go look for it
tanks
looks like a replacement crypto
maybe its some form of hex or binary
There is a pinned analysis for what it could mean but as far as I know it is still the an enigma
what
probably mimicry except it also could be the original voice of the mutated person
but we also don't know if it's a normal sleeper or even humanoid
this is brainfuck code
it has been translated if you go up in the chat there were a lot of messages about it
it's currently gibberish but the only thing we have sort of managed to get is that the start says initiate
from that point on we have no idea
if you have any questions about what i said ping me so that i can see the notification and reply in between classes

not zombies, not aliens
what
if they aren't aliens then red alpha is earth from another dimension
this was in early september
so they must have been doing stuff for v1.0
but they might've not made red alpha yet
idk where else to say this but this channel seems to be the right place
have you seen heard the new voicelines when u give a bot the biotracker @analog frigate
no because the bot spawns with no weapons or anything
at least when it joins mid-game
so i've never gotten an opportunity to clearly hear them
although it did say "no enemies on scanner" when there were two sleepers in front of me
each of them have different voicelines, calling out what they see on the scanner
hackett even cracks jokes still and the others respond to it
i would've clipped it but i was too busy panicking at the giants we just triggered 
oh yeah bots are good at causing
<@&408548765599793173>
clicking that link teleports you to alpha one is canon
You haven't seen the log about them on R6[REDACTED] yet?
is there a doc specifically on the biology of the monsters?
cause i see a timeline, location and generic analysis in the pins. but nothing specifically about the monsters
There was a report about how the transformation goes for regular sleepers
but nothing about how giants are made for ex
or where do mothers & tanks come from
me and another guy have been trying to figure it out
i havent even seen mothers or tanks ingame yet so thats gonna be fun... i remember scouts and giants from the beta but everything else is a mystery to me
basically the more humanoid ones like giants and regular sleepers seem to be mutants
mutation stemming from radiation or infection?
and the tanks and mothers are birthed
neither
oh?
some type of parasite we don't know yet
the implications are... interesting
it's still a theory though
a parasite that can affect genetic level cell growth is quite the threat. especially one as hostile as the sleepers get
and the ones we naturally encounter in garganta
garganta being a specific area?
are probably endemic to that area due to evolution not spreading back
garganta is the facility
well if you have questions just ask
is it known why we are being sent down into the facility? or how we connect ourselves to the prisoners brains
whats the cortex interface thing form the intro then?
cause to me it looks more like we are "along for the ride"
it's the interface between the HSUs and the KSO inside
is it known what caused the facility to uhhhh go down the drain as hard as it did?
also the why is because the warden wants to
NAM-V plus sleepers
NAM-V?
NAM-V is a virus the spread from the inside of garganta
it's not caused the sleepers
but a disease that kills
it fucked the entire world and it seems that everyone not isolated in an HSU is dead
almost everyone
i think NAM-V might be what causes those corpses with shit bulging out of their skulls and stuff that we often find around the complex
is there a specific reason why sleeper corpses decompose within seconds? or is that just to remove bodies for gameplays sake
there's some that clearly died to monsters, but some just look like they died for unrelated reasons and something sprouted out of their heads
its gameplay purposes
currently we haven't found a lore reason so just gameplay's sake
ill be back in a bit
they didn't turn into sleepers so it's just death
something after they die causes them to be afflicted with it
yeah, i know that, but iirc there was something to do with ossification that was going on in NAM-V patients that makes me wonder about those guys
well they did say in the hospital log that they don't know the long term effects
its basically just forcing the cell's to mutate
and i would guess the long term effects are death and transformation into a sleeper
I wonder if death doesn't cancel the transformation into a sleeper
Like as if being alive is a necessary condition to transform
I would assume it has to do with how "usable" the body is
fucking god damn and he also said they aren't zombies what
who wrote the script andres read
Since enough damage to a crucial area will put them down for good i think being alive is a requirement or necrosis is going to cripple them quickly
It also depends on how quickly sleepers are "created"
it could be that once they die, transformation stops which would explain why there are only some bodies
Infection with the sleeper stuff beforehand and bled out mid transition so only partially transformed?
Well any cause of death can be inserted there
pretty much
What scale of parasites are we talking about here?
uh
Cellular or multi-cell?
maybe microscopic ?
not sure
oh that
Im on my phone and its cold so i cant type as quickly as i want to but heres the gist of why this is interesting to me:
Sleepers are not hostile to one another afaik. That means at least some sense of recognition is there.
The head seems to be replaced with self defence weapons or other "tools"
There seems to be no inherent communication among the regular sleepers so a societal structure among them is unlikely. Elites however (especially the scout) seem far more developed or at least changed in a certain way to make use of their sound sensitive nature to lure them towards us or alert one another
Im not super informed on biology. But what else would be stable in earth like conditions?
Is this intentional by the parasite or simply a side effect through evolution?
I know others are theoreticaly possible. Just not here
it doesn't have to be stable as soon as it arrives, it mutated through humans
genetically this introduces survival capabilities here without the need for long evolution
just mutate through a human base and done
Yeah, but stuff like amonia would require incredibly cold conditions as a baseline. I dont think time could help there
Just as an example
And if it is intentional how does the social structure work? Is it simply a instinct based structure where each sleeper acts independently from one another or is there something coordinating them
we have found that they are most likely a colony like bees or ants
at least the structure seems so
a territorial species
Seems to be raw instinct to me, highly territorial at that. The sleepers dont seem any more malicious than a bee
Actually scratch that
Bees can be mean
More like wasps or hornets
Laughs in africanized
That does pose a question
In other less hostile conditions, i wonder if the sleepers would be less hostile as well
So far i havent seen any clear sign of structure but i havent met mothers and tanks yet so maybe im missing some information here but to me it could just be a bunch of things close together
Like plants simply being close to one another doing the same thing
what kind of less hostile conditions ?
only thing we can tell is that they are very territorial and do not expand
we never see them hunt or do much of anything except defend their territory
As bee and ant structures both have some sort of communication between workers or at least towards their queen and i havent seen anything indicating such a thing from the sleepers
Not necessarily
they aren't a hivemind
They may just react on the same instincts
Well they don't consider a hierarchy at least
I dont know about you, but the facility doesnt seem like a very welcoming comfortable place. If water and food is as scarce as it seems to be. Especially for a large population like what we see. You'd violently repell intruders as well
And since the instinct across all sleepers may be identical it could just be looking like coherent actions
While being completely instinct based
Do they even need to eat in the first place ?
Presumably at some point. They might be sleeping because of a long term lack of resource based hibernation
@leaden dagger theorised that the split in the middle and all the eggs within the sleepers might have removed mental capabilities a lot and left sleepers acting by only instinct
This might be their "winter" state
It would explain they all look malnourished
Hold up. Eggs?
yeah it could be hibernation
Ye there are eggs within them
that's what we call the egg shaped things in shooters
… why have we not been given a flamethrower yet?
I've been wondering this since i knew of the existence of spitters
also not practical
I beg to differ. Vehemently.
maybe
but it's still not likely since there isn't much of a way for the warden to provide that
It'd be interesting to know their resistance to fire tbh
also KDS has to have had that
In general a reaction to fire
that as well
Since theres so much mist around the temperature has to be pretty cold
Maybe heat "activates " them?
Huh
Epic
I gotta drive now. Cya in a few.
Yeah some logs specifically state iirc that its unbearably hot close to the 2km mark and the systems struggle to maintain livable conditions
i don't remember who but someone managed to establish that the temperature can vary from 40 to 60 celsius
it's hot down there
Wouldn't it be natural for the complex to have an air cooling system though ?
yes
Maybe it's still working
but power and maintenance
Otherwise i'd expect hearing prisoners mentioning how hot it is down there
I wonder if we'll ever see the location they broke into and initially discovered the sleepers
Its such a signifigant place we have to at some point right? I cant see the wardens efforts not bringing us there eventually
it probably will want for us to go there at some point
as soon as i see an E1 that's almost 2km deep

The depths are weird to me
At this point it'll probably be an F-tier level
R5C3 is the deepest level we got right ?
how deep was it
over 1100
C3 this time is around 1143 without looking in the game iirc
i'm gonna check the wiki
1109 for C3
yeah that's the deepest
ayo good morning
good evening
😂
Maybe the sleepers are only sleepers because of the lack of food
With scouts acting as wake up call if they find something of note like a human thats still alive and presumably now shooting at them
maybe
yeah current deepest appears to be r6c3 at 1194
ooh
no
d4 is at 1314
we are reaching the meteorite
good
I wanna touch the space rock
gooood goooood yess
roughly
noice
does anyone have the transcript for the story levels?
transcript as in?
schaeffer voices / the doctor voices
just text of the entire dialogue
its pinned right?
<@&408548765599793173>
very goood
so quick question is there a human civilization left during the events of rundown 6
or was there a mass extinction that occured
We know there is a pandemic
but no idea about how many people are still alive
You'd expect a mass extinction to occur very soon anyway
huh I thought the virus was contained within the facility
no
it escaped
Considering its high mortality rate, i don't see what would be an outcome
aside from extinction
is it possible that a cure was created within the complex or at least the materials nessary to create one
no one knows
from what was gathered basically everyone is dead
currently everything says not likely
there were tests
and maybe the HSUs somehow stop it a little bit
but we don't know enough
Humanity being completely wiped out seems kinda lame to me
well it's lame but realistic seeing how deadly NAM-V is
Dang
here how cool or uncool something is doesn't matter
only how true it is
lore is lore
and the more we find and explain the better
It's probably at least very devastating, so much so that nobody has tried to reach the complex from our knowledge since it was evacuated.
Might also be the case that the flyers have taken over, or something.
but wouldn't explain why we only see them now in R6.
we should've seen them earlier entering the complex
also flyers couldn't have taken over since the only time they can go to earth is if the portal to red alpha is open
unless there are some more of the telecrystals
The highest depth we see them at without our interference is 986m or 1080m.
so they most likely have come up from down
1314m is the lowest we see them, and the lowest expedition in general.
yeah
we will have to wait for the extension to get more about how they have come to be on earth
Here is the thing tho how are the prisoners you play still alive if this virus was so deadly you think the prisoners should be dead considering in the game you have to deal with the infection bs
Also even if the virus is highly deadly you humanity should gain an immunity like with the Black Death
Logs imply that if it's treated you'll be fine, but it'll be dormant. It's kind of suggested in Dauda's log that everyone has it, it's probably just under control as much as possible, and most likely hydrostasis is an environment in which the WRDN can treat prisoners.
Hydrostasis also probably helps slow the progress of the virus, since the prisoners are probably only let out of stasis for missions
Hm
you are out of stasis for a couple hours per expedition
at least that's how it works out lorewise
Idk the way it seems to me is that warden is having the prisoners do certain tasks in preparation for a grand return to the complex
also i remember someone made a theory that hydrostasis could've been a cure of sorts for nam-v but it caused memory loss as a aide effect
not sure how likely that is but it's within the plausible category until we get more information
maybe
it could be planning a KSO raid
WRDN log kind of implied it might be trying to "search and destroy" something.
a mission with like 10 officers
it's a military ai
at least the basis of the warden
Don't let R6 distract you from the fact that nobody has decoded the BrainFuck yet.
since it's mainly BIOCOM under that
i know
but i think we can't decode it until we learn how the d-block cipher works
only thing highly probable right now is that it's some sort of linux type command and it starts with initiate
To me it makes no sense that humanity is extinct because it seems very unlikely that the warden just randomly turned back on
After shutting down the complex
it didn't shut anything off
and it never turned off
at least it never appears to
I thought the warden was shut off after the complex locked down
it's not directly supported by garganta
the warden is the biocom
and the BIOCOM was made by the US military and KDS
what does that mean?
is that important in any way lore wise?
i see they moved HSUs from zone to zone
if any of these personnel are actually important
but I should probably look for personnel ID tags mentioned in here
well you can look at the biosignature
maybe it matches with something else
if it exists then it must be an important log in some way
seeing as how useless it appears

this is the bf message that you get i'm just confused as to how this turns into a linux command, there are too many indents no? looks more like a message
this is of course assuming 13 is treated as the return character
there was a very long discussion about it
we used different decoders, manually changing brainfuck data and using different ascii libraries
the full ascii library mainly gave random japanese
i decoded it into the nordic letters ascii library and it takes a much more normal looking form
and i think it wasn't 13 but 127 that was backspace
