can someone listen to this

#

and tell my if this is all correct

#

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

crisp lance
#

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

dim scroll
#

Let's see

crisp lance
#

But we don't have a clue what happened in the last 5

dim scroll
#

Without spoiling ofc

crisp lance
#

Nothing from this rundown if you please

dim scroll
#

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)

dim scroll
#

Hydro Stasis Unit

#

the thing you come out of at the beginning of the dive

indigo gale
#

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.

dim scroll
#

yeah

indigo gale
#

And that he can't remember why they, the other members of his group, look at him with such anger.

dim scroll
#

There are mentions of a virus named NAM-V & a parasite as well

#

Supposedly NAM-V became a pandemic with a high mortality rate

indigo gale
#

As well as the whole thing with this Cortex system.

#

Do we still know what it is, really?

dim scroll
#

not really

indigo gale
#

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.

dim scroll
#

But it may be something like transfering "memories" or "soul" into clones or some similar stuff

indigo gale
#

That is what I was thinking.

dim scroll
#

Anyway the warden (who seems to be an AI called BIOCOM) sends us into the complex for various tasks

indigo gale
#

That their "souls" or "memories" are stored in this Cortex system and then put in these clone bodies or whatever.

dim scroll
#

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)

white moth
dim scroll
#

Who is also crazy af and just wanna fuck up the warden

white moth
#

@crisp lance

#

also

#

im working on a new vido for the chacters that are present

#

and im lookin at the wiki

dim scroll
#

Oh also each prisoners has a reason for being there

white moth
#

and im gonna have to update Bishop's file

#

when im done

dim scroll
#

Like was it dauda who started a genocide ?

blissful helm
crisp lance
indigo gale
#

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.

dim scroll
#

Idk which one it is that also studied NAM-V

#

Bishop ig since he's mentioned on santonian's website

indigo gale
#

Ah, there are some profiles about them on the website.

white moth
indigo gale
#

"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."

white moth
#

dauda was supposedly a doctor who locked himself in the HSU to protect himself then itwent toteh wrong section

indigo gale
#

"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. "

white moth
#

anymore

#

as it shows in the new audio files

indigo gale
#

Interesting.

white moth
#

bishop is a Sgt for KDS

#

and he has been working there

indigo gale
#

They might need to change that then on the website.

white moth
#

as a secuirty officer

#

yeah

#

im gonna work on that tmr

#

and getting a full explanation of each character updated so we udnerstand

#

them

indigo gale
#

And again, this was what I found on the game's official website.

white moth
#

yeh

#

imma change it

#

on the wiki

dim scroll
#

I wonder if the devs aren't being a bit more straightforward regarding lore

white moth
#

once i get everything written down

white moth
#

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

crisp lance
indigo gale
#

Hmmmms like Joseph Joestar

white moth
crisp lance
white moth
#

Yes

#

I got 1-4 and 5-6 will be out hopefully tmr or the day after

dim scroll
#

Btw do we know what's the thing at the end of D1 ?

short ferry
dim scroll
#

epic

tribal bolt
#

I take it, experimenting with teleportation is the cause of the infection at this point? I mean, where it came from anyway...

shadow igloo
#

This story is fascinating. Im so lost though 👀

leaden dagger
#

it's a lot to keep up with lmao

steep haven
# white moth this isnt true

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?

#

🤔

white moth
#

THERE IS AUDIO

#

sorry caps lock

#

that says

#

he was sgt for KDS

shadow igloo
#

Unless its a different bishop he was a security officer

steep haven
#

Oh yeah I said general....well sarge yeah

shadow igloo
#

As mentioned in the c1 logs

raw island
#

It would be needlessly confusing for there to be two Bishops, I think

steep haven
#

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

white moth
#

is htre any proof of that?

steep haven
#

Yeah, the audios on r5 lol

#

Log 2

white moth
#

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

steep haven
#

He was kept as a prisioner for 3 years in a warzone, now make sense he was a sarge

white moth
#

there

#

this is where it says bishop is a Sgt

#

its B1

steep haven
#

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 🤔

solar nova
#

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.

SPOILER ALERT: Warden Face Reveal:

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?

trail inlet
kindred cedar
#

@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?

snow yarrow
#

I guess that's more like some sort of alien creature..

#

“The native inhabitants of Planet Alpha”

wild sparrow
#

Anyone had word log for the final audio log in D1?

kindred cedar
steep haven
#

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...."

#

🤨

dense mountain
#

parasites

steep haven
#

I don't think it's that neither the virus

#

If it was the virus, planet earth would be covered in sleepers

#

🤔

dense mountain
#

Maybe its contained

steep haven
#

No, you can read a log in the first console on a1 that nam v is a global pandemic

#

🤣

dense mountain
#

Wait the outside bits in A1
They are outside

#

What if i cant read lol

wintry summit
#

its not 'just' outside it's some kind of other dimension thingly

steep haven
#

Yup

dense mountain
#

Interdimentinal Virus

kindred cedar
#

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

scenic wagon
#

global pandemic… hmmm… seems familiar.

i have classes rn so i will answer fully later

unborn steppe
#

So do we know anything about the mysterious white creature schaeffer saw? Besides the fact that it predates the outbreak.

unborn steppe
#

@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.

icy swift
#

gotcha, havent done c2 yet but i'll look out for it

void maple
upbeat frost
#

what are the symptoms of Nam-V?

faint sonnet
analog frigate
#

ok so

analog frigate
void maple
analog frigate
#

the regular sleepers are mostly mutated humans

void maple
#

The sleepers are not aliens, but the floaties are

analog frigate
analog frigate
analog frigate
analog frigate
analog frigate
#

that should be everything unless i need to clear some answer up

#

then you can just ask :)

void maple
#

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

analog frigate
#

it's probably the intestines since they tilt forward when they attack, as if their stomach area is contracting

analog frigate
upbeat frost
analog frigate
#

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

upbeat frost
#

Nam could be the thing in the air on the other side of the portal

analog frigate
#

as in?

#

what exactly in the air on Red Alpha

upbeat frost
#

Idk I heard there being something

#

but Nam is prolly in the deeper levels

#

the parasite is still unknown though

void maple
#

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

upbeat frost
#

what does the spitter spit at you anyway

analog frigate
#

new ones can be born since

#

genetics

upbeat frost
#

I mean some are not mutated humans

analog frigate
#

some aren't

upbeat frost
#

like the babies, and the cocoon made ones

analog frigate
#

the humanoid ones are

#

i imagine mainly mothers and tanks are birthed

upbeat frost
#

I mean you can see multiple body parts on the tank and the mother

analog frigate
#

true

#

but again, genetics

#

they have incorporated a part of human dna into themselves

void maple
#

We didn’t learn about the sleepers in biology

upbeat frost
#

The thing I'm wondering is

analog frigate
upbeat frost
#

How are the meatballs and the gigantic squids created

analog frigate
#

unknown

#

they are endemic to Red Alpha

upbeat frost
#

Are they native, or just another species that got consumed by the plague

analog frigate
#

so until we learn more about it it's only assumptions

upbeat frost
#

they do not attack sleepers though, that says something

analog frigate
#

they are part of the same species

upbeat frost
#

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

analog frigate
#

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!

upbeat frost
#

squid just falls down though

analog frigate
#

as in?

upbeat frost
#

or yea, our weapons are not powerful enough to kill it normally

upbeat frost
#

in D1

#

It just drops into the abyss

analog frigate
#

the Kraken you mean?

upbeat frost
#

yea

analog frigate
#

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

upbeat frost
#

Imma send you a pic in dms

#

for some reasons

analog frigate
#

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

lilac island
#

it is flying

#

you can see that it's main body ends down to a bunch of large tendrils that hang down underneath it

heavy lodge
#

R6C3, does “sys-purge” mean the Warden purges itself in software or clean out the complex system?🤔

analog frigate
leaden dagger
#

yeah the kraken is some weird shit lmao

#

we had the theory almost perfect and then flyers come in to the mix

carmine tendon
#

Does someone know what does scaffer says on D1 cause the audio bug showed up at the last moment for me

gilded vine
#

from what I gathered he's losing his mind more and becoming more paranoid and he thinks we might be the warden lol

raw island
#

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

carmine tendon
#

Then nothing would explain about || the big final boss ||

#

Yea, It's baseless.

raw island
#

Yeah absolutely, I haven’t finished the rundown, just tossing ideas

carmine tendon
gilded vine
#

Somni are you gonna get your bots to do stuff?

kindred cedar
#

Oh something I forgot to say maybe the wardens goal is to modify the genetic code of neonates to be immune to nam-v

analog frigate
#

possibly

kindred cedar
#

Cause we still don't know the wardens goal with that genome we obtained

analog frigate
#

true

steep haven
lofty cave
#

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

leaden dagger
#

😂😂

analog frigate
#

mars is another planet that you don't go to

heavy lodge
#

Anyone know what’s going on in D4? Are the teleportations real or just hallucinations?

shadow igloo
#

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

indigo gale
#

"I said come in, don't stand there!"

analog frigate
analog frigate
#

quantum entanglement explains it

white moth
#

Hey anyone able to get the voice logs from C1?

white moth
#

if you can hmu

analog frigate
#

i think rayalot recorded them if i'm not mistaken

white moth
#

@solar nova sorry for the @ but you got them?

solar nova
#

The ambient stuff?

#

Naw, unfort.

#

I have two C2 audio logs and one B1 audio log (from Brazil).

glacial idol
#

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

leaden dagger
#

we've already comfirmed BIOCOM is the Warden

glacial idol
#

fuck i'm late

leaden dagger
#

😂

glacial idol
#

have you guys discussed the research outpost like area on B1

leaden dagger
#

wdym? like on the other planet?

glacial idol
#

it's actually another reality

#

a whole different universe

leaden dagger
#

not necessarily

#

we cant confirm that

glacial idol
#

it literally said that

#

i think

leaden dagger
#

where?

glacial idol
#

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

leaden dagger
#

ah, yeah i dont think its been confirmed yet

glacial idol
#

oh

leaden dagger
#

lots of speculation though

glacial idol
#

well that planet has a very similar terrain to that of around New Mexico, maybe even around Nevada

leaden dagger
#

unless @analog frigate knows something i dont

leaden dagger
glacial idol
#

those rock formations look very familiar

leaden dagger
#

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

glacial idol
#

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

leaden dagger
#

it could make sense that its a future earth since plant samples died upon travelling

leaden dagger
#

that sounds mad cool

glacial idol
#

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

glacial idol
leaden dagger
#

oh wild, so is it like an electromagnetic fucky zone?

white moth
#

we use quantom entanglment

leaden dagger
white moth
#

that requires 2 different univerese

#

to work

leaden dagger
#

no it doesnt

#

it can be across any distance

white moth
#

how would it not?

leaden dagger
#

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

white moth
#

idk i think it has to be acorss unvieres

leaden dagger
#

no it doesnt

#

i've researched this stuff

white moth
#

are you sure?

leaden dagger
#

look it up even

white moth
#

i have too

leaden dagger
#

yes

#

it can literally be across any distance, yes universes included but not limited to.

white moth
#

i dont know whati have read was it must be across unvieres

glacial idol
#

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

leaden dagger
#

is that the real life comparison?

glacial idol
#

yes

leaden dagger
#

cause yeah that looks very similar

leaden dagger
# white moth i dont know whati have read was it must be across unvieres

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.

glacial idol
#

"Zone of Silence" it is in mexico, coincidentally we are in mexico when we do whatever the Matter Projector does

leaden dagger
#

the matter projecter, well, projects matter lmao

white moth
leaden dagger
#

through space and/or time

leaden dagger
#

it gets confusing

#

especially quantum shit

#

"if you think you understand quantum physics; you dont understand quantum physics"

glacial idol
#

also places on Earth can look very other worldly, like this other place in Mexico with red dunes

leaden dagger
#

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

glacial idol
#

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

solar nova
#

Its "maw" looks a lot like a sleeper's mouth, and when it spawns it does a sleeper-esque glow.

leaden dagger
#

lmao

#

yuh

#

at this point thats been ruled out

#

me and @analog frigate basically confirmed that sleepers are a seperate species

fervent lagoon
#

you guys have to consider D4 in all of this

leaden dagger
#

with hive-mind like behaviour, similar to ants or bees

leaden dagger
#

cause D4 isnt main-story based

fervent lagoon
#

teleports you to alternate complexs

glacial idol
#

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

leaden dagger
#

hm

fervent lagoon
#

how it works is there are 5 'sections'

#

the first and last ones are 'real' (map works)

leaden dagger
fervent lagoon
#

the 3 in between are, different

leaden dagger
#

weird

white moth
#

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

fervent lagoon
#

magik

leaden dagger
#

they dont teleport

glacial idol
leaden dagger
#

so basically

white moth
#

but then how do they move

solar nova
#

Something about a quantum field in which two particles have correlated spins.

leaden dagger
#

everything that happens to one particle, happens to the other

#

its mirrored

solar nova
#

Roughly that.

white moth
#

ok

#

but like

#

how does it bring us ot a differnet plant/unievere?

solar nova
#

Quantum teather in the voice lines.

glacial idol
solar nova
#

Not entanglement.

leaden dagger
#

thats the TL;DR

white moth
#

dagga do you know?

leaden dagger
#

know what?

white moth
#

@glacial idol if you need a catch up on lore dm me

white moth
glacial idol
white moth
#

like the particles

leaden dagger
#

probably a different made up quantum state or action that they used to explain it

#

which is BASED on quantum entanglement

leaden dagger
#

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

leaden dagger
#

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

white moth
#

Also anyone wanna work with me sometime this week on getting updated character lore?

leaden dagger
#

they can become big shooters and big strikers

white moth
#

Because bishop def needs a change on the wiki

leaden dagger
#

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 😂

glacial idol
#

yo I was right in run down one hell yeah

leaden dagger
#

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

white moth
#

Would anyone be down to help me with C3 I’m trying to look for lore I have a theory

leaden dagger
#

i cant rn, maybe later

#

i think i still need C2 but i cant remember

jagged jungle
#

Beans.

glacial idol
# leaden dagger shadows are purely sci-fi, cant really explain em

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

leaden dagger
#

hmm i suppose that could be true

glacial idol
#

or hydrogen

leaden dagger
#

yeah my 1st thought was helium as well

glacial idol
#

it's most likely hydrogen, since whenever we kill them they explode in a way that makes it seem like hydrogen igniting

leaden dagger
#

very true

#

thats probably right

glacial idol
#

and since it's the lightest element we know, it would allow them to float

leaden dagger
#

yuh yuh

glacial idol
#

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

leaden dagger
#

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'

scout spaghetti

analog frigate
#

also yes it's in another dimension

analog frigate
#

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

analog frigate
analog frigate
#

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

4.4h game time

Also put gameplay as easy

analog frigate
#

probably only played A1

gilded vine
#

Which is easy

#

But doesn't explain 4 hours of gametime kek

topaz flare
#

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

gilded vine
#

Trueeeee

analog frigate
#

they probably don't even know how to use a terminal since "ooh i'm not supposed to check anything" "where titorial wallsack "

topaz flare
#

^^ 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

gilded vine
#

1.0 has been so kind to new players

topaz flare
#

i also have ppl that done A1 but never heard the log so ya

topaz flare
#

but i still love A1

gilded vine
#

We barely got any direction, and now they have so many things that are just handing them lore

topaz flare
#

i know scaler would agree

analog frigate
#

1.0 is literally introducing a titorial with A1

#

and all the reminders on the top left

topaz flare
#

ya and some say oh thats not a titorial

analog frigate
#

h o w

topaz flare
#

like buddy what is a titorial for you in a hardcore game

#

like H O w

analog frigate
#

the game literally takes your hand and guides you through some easy stuff in A1

topaz flare

the game isn't even that hardcore like in R5 the new players were struggling coming in A2 and A3

topaz flare
dim scroll
analog frigate
#

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

heavy lodge
#

Hmm but wouldn’t the code after “AT” be something different since they are intruding different area of the complex?

analog frigate
#

where exactly?

heavy lodge
#

The 548CA92F1D79E2DC

analog frigate
#

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

dim scroll
#

isn't the checksum a way to identify transmissions ?

analog frigate
#

yes

#

it could be an identification of a command or something similar

heavy lodge
#

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 Cortex

analog frigate
#

hmm

dim scroll
#

Or the devs made a mistake & forgot to change it 😳

analog frigate
#

it's possible

#

if it is a mistake, i won't be satisfied until it is fixed

gilded vine
#

Maybe we are hallucinating the alarm KEKW

#

Real question is why does the alarm stop

hot burrow
#

It’s all a bad acid trip

analog frigate
#

the warden is an AI

#

the BIOCOM

dim scroll
#

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

gilded vine
#

What did the warden fuck up

#

Oh with shutdowns

#

It does say manual override attempt

lilac island
#

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

dim scroll
#

pins

#

Isn't the doc updated ?

lilac island
#

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

analog frigate

i posted the transcript a while ago

#

let me find it

#

i think it's this one

celest pagoda
#

It's a diff one, something about hallucinations

#

I think it could tie back to the 2 Schaeffer logs irc about the transcripts convo

glacial idol
#

also me hoping my infared hypothesis is right about the scouts or i feel stupid

glacial idol
# glacial idol We used to think matter couldn't be created or destroyed, the hadron collider do...

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

lofty cave
analog frigate
#

2 workers disappeared from touching the crystal only

#

without any equipment around

#

i believe the teleporting room is for controlling the location

lofty cave
#

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?

analog frigate
#

yes

#

it's alpha 1

lofty cave
#

I though they just found it by accidently teleporting inside

analog frigate
#

the same outpost in d1

wild sparrow
#

is there a updated summary-like thingy for the lore

analog frigate
#

currently five has some videos

wild sparrow
#

I kinda want to translate it into chinese for my Taiwanese community

lofty cave

wait i remember some audio log about them sending bishop with the team inside that Alpha 1 dimension and them did come back apparently?

lofty cave
#

yeah since he is one of the main characters

analog frigate
#

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

lofty cave
#

but did they manage to install an outpost there and made some research work?

#

since we get in one in C1

yes they did

i've been away from the game for a while. Is Schaefer the guy who talks to us in A1 and D1?

agile plinth
#

yes

topaz flare
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm @analog frigate i sense tea

lilac island
#

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

topaz flare
#

are you are a dog person or cat?

#

or the last last one (is there a last last one?)

lilac island
#

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-"

snow yarrow
#

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 [

topaz flare
#

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

shut mountain
#

"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? Thinkedit Just a theory, a game theory

primal sequoia
#

so was the resist terminal ever found? the one that was supposed to be below 1100 meters

snow yarrow

or C2

#

there was a terminal with password

c3 prob then cause c2 is 1051M

#

guessing no ones opened it up yet?

snow yarrow

actually

#

it can be opend lol

it's just a terminal with password

what did it say

maybe its some form of hex or binary

shut mountain
#

There is a pinned analysis for what it could mean but as far as I know it is still the an enigma

agile plinth
#

but we also don't know if it's a normal sleeper or even humanoid

agile plinth
#

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

analog frigate
#

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

topaz flare

we just have to wait and see

delicate creek
#

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

dim scroll
#

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

analog frigate
sour hedge
#

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

analog frigate
#

basically the more humanoid ones like giants and regular sleepers seem to be mutants

sour hedge
#

mutation stemming from radiation or infection?

analog frigate
#

and the tanks and mothers are birthed

analog frigate
sour hedge
#

oh?

analog frigate
#

some type of parasite we don't know yet

sour hedge
#

the implications are... interesting

analog frigate
#

it's still a theory though

sour hedge
#

a parasite that can affect genetic level cell growth is quite the threat. especially one as hostile as the sleepers get

analog frigate
#

and the ones we naturally encounter in garganta

sour hedge
#

garganta being a specific area?

analog frigate
#

are probably endemic to that area due to evolution not spreading back

analog frigate
sour hedge
#

huh

#

yeah i havent touched anything since beta and havent been digging too deep yet

analog frigate
#

well if you have questions just ask

sour hedge
#

is it known why we are being sent down into the facility? or how we connect ourselves to the prisoners brains

analog frigate
#

we are the prisoners

#

we don't connect to them

sour hedge
#

whats the cortex interface thing form the intro then?

#

cause to me it looks more like we are "along for the ride"

analog frigate
#

it's the interface between the HSUs and the KSO inside

sour hedge
#

is it known what caused the facility to uhhhh go down the drain as hard as it did?

analog frigate
sour hedge
#

NAM-V?

analog frigate
#

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

lilac island
#

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

sour hedge
#

is there a specific reason why sleeper corpses decompose within seconds? or is that just to remove bodies for gameplays sake

lilac island
#

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

analog frigate
sour hedge
#

ill be back in a bit

analog frigate
#

something after they die causes them to be afflicted with it

lilac island
#

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

analog frigate
#

well they did say in the hospital log that they don't know the long term effects

lilac island
#

its basically just forcing the cell's to mutate

#

and i would guess the long term effects are death and transformation into a sleeper

dim scroll
#

I wonder if death doesn't cancel the transformation into a sleeper

#

Like as if being alive is a necessary condition to transform

sour hedge
#

I would assume it has to do with how "usable" the body is

analog frigate
#

fucking god damn and he also said they aren't zombies what

#

who wrote the script andres read

sour hedge
#

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"

analog frigate
#

it could be that once they die, transformation stops which would explain why there are only some bodies

sour hedge
#

Infection with the sleeper stuff beforehand and bled out mid transition so only partially transformed?

analog frigate
#

possibly

#

but we don't know how their blood works so

sour hedge
#

Well any cause of death can be inserted there

analog frigate
#

pretty much

sour hedge
#

What scale of parasites are we talking about here?

dim scroll
#

uh

sour hedge
#

Cellular or multi-cell?

dim scroll
#

maybe microscopic ?

analog frigate
#

not sure

dim scroll
#

oh that

analog frigate
#

they don't seem carbon based

#

multi-cell seems the more likely

sour hedge
#

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

shadow igloo
sour hedge
shadow igloo
#

I know others are theoreticaly possible. Just not here

analog frigate
#

genetically this introduces survival capabilities here without the need for long evolution

#

just mutate through a human base and done

shadow igloo
#

Yeah, but stuff like amonia would require incredibly cold conditions as a baseline. I dont think time could help there

#

Just as an example

sour hedge
#

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

analog frigate
#

at least the structure seems so

#

a territorial species

shadow igloo
#

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

sour hedge
#

More like wasps or hornets

shadow igloo
#

Laughs in africanized

#

That does pose a question

#

In other less hostile conditions, i wonder if the sleepers would be less hostile as well

sour hedge
#

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

dim scroll
#

what kind of less hostile conditions ?

analog frigate
#

we never see them hunt or do much of anything except defend their territory

sour hedge
#

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

dim scroll
#

Yeah

#

it's like a single mind controlling them all

sour hedge
#

Not necessarily

analog frigate
#

they aren't a hivemind

sour hedge
#

They may just react on the same instincts

dim scroll
#

Well they don't consider a hierarchy at least

shadow igloo
# dim scroll what kind of less hostile conditions ?

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

sour hedge
#

And since the instinct across all sleepers may be identical it could just be looking like coherent actions

While being completely instinct based

dim scroll
#

Do they even need to eat in the first place ?

shadow igloo
#

Presumably at some point. They might be sleeping because of a long term lack of resource based hibernation

analog frigate
#

@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

shadow igloo
#

This might be their "winter" state

sour hedge
#

It would explain they all look malnourished

analog frigate
dim scroll
#

Ye there are eggs within them

analog frigate
sour hedge
#

… why have we not been given a flamethrower yet?

analog frigate
#

but they don't act like actual eggs

#

because that would be too op

dim scroll
analog frigate
#

also not practical

sour hedge
analog frigate
#

maybe

#

but it's still not likely since there isn't much of a way for the warden to provide that

dim scroll
#

It'd be interesting to know their resistance to fire tbh

analog frigate
#

also KDS has to have had that

sour hedge
dim scroll
#

that as well

sour hedge
#

Since theres so much mist around the temperature has to be pretty cold
Maybe heat "activates " them?

no

Yeah some logs specifically state iirc that its unbearably hot close to the 2km mark and the systems struggle to maintain livable conditions

analog frigate
#

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 ?

analog frigate
#

yes

but power and maintenance

Otherwise i'd expect hearing prisoners mentioning how hot it is down there

shadow igloo

I wonder if we'll ever see the location they broke into and initially discovered the sleepers

analog frigate

that's the front of the meteorite

#

which will be insanely cool to see

shadow igloo
#

Its such a signifigant place we have to at some point right? I cant see the wardens efforts not bringing us there eventually

analog frigate
#

it probably will want for us to go there at some point

#

as soon as i see an E1 that's almost 2km deep

#

so quick question is there a human civilization left during the events of rundown 6

#

or was there a mass extinction that occured

dim scroll
#

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

west yew
#

huh I thought the virus was contained within the facility

dim scroll
#

no

#

it escaped

#

Considering its high mortality rate, i don't see what would be an outcome

#

aside from extinction

west yew
#

is it possible that a cure was created within the complex or at least the materials nessary to create one

dim scroll
#

No idea

#

We know there were experiments

analog frigate
analog frigate
#

there were tests

#

and maybe the HSUs somehow stop it a little bit

#

but we don't know enough

west yew
#

Humanity being completely wiped out seems kinda lame to me

analog frigate
#

well it's lame but realistic seeing how deadly NAM-V is

leaden dagger
#

yeah

#

\

west yew
#

Dang

analog frigate
#

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

solar nova
#

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.

analog frigate
#

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

solar nova
#

The highest depth we see them at without our interference is 986m or 1080m.

analog frigate
#

so they most likely have come up from down

solar nova
#

1314m is the lowest we see them, and the lowest expedition in general.

analog frigate
#

yeah

#

we will have to wait for the extension to get more about how they have come to be on earth

west yew
#

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

solar nova
raw island
#

Hydrostasis also probably helps slow the progress of the virus, since the prisoners are probably only let out of stasis for missions

west yew
#

Hm

agile plinth
#

at least that's how it works out lorewise

west yew
#

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

agile plinth
#

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

agile plinth
#

it could be planning a KSO raid

solar nova
#

WRDN log kind of implied it might be trying to "search and destroy" something.

agile plinth
#

a mission with like 10 officers

agile plinth
#

at least the basis of the warden

solar nova
#

Don't let R6 distract you from the fact that nobody has decoded the BrainFuck yet.

agile plinth
#

since it's mainly BIOCOM under that

agile plinth
#

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

west yew
#

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

analog frigate
#

it didn't shut anything off

#

and it never turned off

#

at least it never appears to

west yew
#

I thought the warden was shut off after the complex locked down

analog frigate
#

it's not directly supported by garganta

#

the warden is the biocom

#

and the BIOCOM was made by the US military and KDS

lofty cave
#

what does that mean?

analog frigate
#

HSU locations

#

the navigational data of all KDS personnel

lofty cave
#

is that important in any way lore wise?

analog frigate
#

hmm

#

not sure

#

it could be

lofty cave
#

i see they moved HSUs from zone to zone

analog frigate
#

if any of these personnel are actually important

lofty cave
#

but I should probably look for personnel ID tags mentioned in here

analog frigate
#

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

analog frigate
#

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
