Well http://www.1029.io/repository/asset9...522212/RGY.jpg returns a 404 so I’m all out of ideas

e: Seriously all the words I’m thinking of aren’t working – obey, obstruct, open, obscure, omit

Oh.

That was actually an honest mistake on my part ^ ^'

Well, that's a first.

Phoetux 03-13-2017 03:35 PM

Been trying to recognise the deleted words (the ones with the x marks on them) from the flyers.
It's hard, since the images quality it's not that high. And the misspelled words don't say anything at all to me. Tried to vary them but nothing comes out, what I'm interested on are the deleted words now.
Maybe they don't say anything at all, but they might be. Remember the message "Let the thing that's missing guide you"?

edit: wait, you guys analized this before right?

Gunnr 03-13-2017 04:30 PM

Got a moment to try things. I tried punching in obtain, order, tooted, own but got a 404.

Then I looked at what's written on those 2 pages
"We can't hold much longer.
It's dark, and cold. So cold. They don't seem to [REDACTED]. They. Them. It's hard to know how we'll [REDACTED], but we'll try. This can't last forever. We won't last forever.
Look what they're doing to us. Just look.
There is spirit, but it's waining. We need you, [REDACTED]. Help us."

Is there a word that would make sense written in the redacted spaces AND go in the url?

Shade_Meadows 03-13-2017 04:30 PM

Weird to think that maybe the next clue was "sent" to us long ago...
NAH, Waiting for SPIRIT! Where are the clues???

GlitterPanther 03-13-2017 05:03 PM

I dont know if its just me but on the original images from the asset9X website it looks like has hidden words, could just be my eyes.

Could the order, obey comply and work appear in be a code?

My guesses

"We can't hold much longer.
It's dark, and cold. So cold. They don't seem to [Notice]. They. Them. It's hard to know how we'll [Survive], but we'll try. This can't last forever. We won't last forever.
Look what they're doing to us. Just look.
There is spirit, but it's waining. We need you, [Abe]. Help us."


Also wanna bring these Circle words back up

I found the next step and it's as awesome as it is disturbing!

All you need are the two last clues Alex provided to reach it. I got the approval to share one hint:

Discard the Asset9x clue, the message doesn't come from Asset98​ or Asset99.

Connell 03-14-2017 03:48 AM

Are we looking for a URL? I've been looking over the posters this morning trying to find the answer there. I'm stumped

Yes. And it's one you already have.

Xavier 03-14-2017 04:11 AM

No need to look at the posters, re-read my post.

Connell 03-14-2017 04:14 AM

Asset 100? :goof:

I don't think I'm familiar enough with this stage to get it

Xavier 03-14-2017 04:24 AM

Take a step back... It's not coming from an Asset

OWI_Alex 03-14-2017 05:44 AM

Remember the coded message you learnt from the six photographs. Consider they're from the Spirit of 1029 as a whole, not an asset. What could you make from those two pieces of information?

Connell 03-14-2017 06:24 AM

Got it. Ha. Man that was a lot easier than I was thinking it was. Still confused now though

Edit: oh shit. oh fuck. that was.. fuck.

Follow the numbers, find the truth

Connell 03-14-2017 06:34 AM

I've found what they're trying to show us. It's... wow. I won't spoil it though :p

Gunnr 03-14-2017 06:46 AM

^Arg! You guys!

What is is it?:fuzconf:

Shade_Meadows 03-14-2017 07:04 AM

Damn... re-reading all of this trying to understand!

Manco 03-14-2017 07:05 AM

It’s interesting is what it is. ;)

Shade_Meadows 03-14-2017 07:16 AM

Reviewing all of http://oddworld.wikia.com/wiki/Soulstorm_ARG
well, will clean my mind with lunch, will be back to crack this for me!
;) i love ya braniacs!

STM 03-14-2017 07:48 AM

Damn, that is capital F Fucked.

artemisbot 03-14-2017 08:02 AM

Welp, got it the first thing I tried... this is spooky asf.

Nemin 03-14-2017 08:11 AM

Hello guys, long time no see.

I have lurked here following the ARG for some time now. And holy crap is it good.
I also found the latest piece and well. I'm stuck...

I hope somebody more clever than me will find it.

Manco 03-14-2017 08:17 AM

It’s easier than you think. Way easier.

Shade_Meadows 03-14-2017 08:29 AM

"You have all you need to follow the trail.
The interesting thing is that we know that at least one person has found the next step in the puzzle and they're very good at reading...
Somebody sent us a message, in private.
Maybe it's not the sort of thing he wanted to share, or - indeed - was asked not to...?

Think. What message could 1029 be trying to get through to everyone? Something not so easily picked up if only one half of something got intercepted.
OK, and who's trying to get that message across to you?


It's one you already have."



Huh... i think i may be on to something *still eating*

Phoetux 03-14-2017 09:06 AM

Holy shit! That's definitely a Vykker's hand! And that mudokon, he looks like he's going nuts.
If someone's wondering, the code morse code in the video is the Soulstorm site link. I'm afraid we need to see if there's something hidden in that video and in the 'whatifwetoldyoutoo' link.

tmakz 03-14-2017 09:07 AM

Guys watch the transmission its on youtube and ill advise you to have it low volume its ugh terrifying geez should have watched it in daylight

Pohatta 03-14-2017 09:07 AM

It's nice to see video footage.

Nemin 03-14-2017 09:12 AM

It's definitely creepy as hell, but after a few watches, it becomes kind of disturbingly funny. I mean if that sound sound weren't so distorted, it would be very derpy.

Havoc 03-14-2017 09:13 AM

I still technically found it before I saw the announcement :D Be it with Manco's help >_> I'm not very good at this stuff.

HTML_Earth 03-14-2017 09:15 AM

The source code of www.1029.io/whatifwetoldyoutoo
contained this:

doYOUsee? think of a number, any number.
The last line was the clue that lead to whatifwetoldyoutoo/8291, but what about the others?

Manco 03-14-2017 09:16 AM



The video description is morse code for “oddworld.com/soulstorm/”

Nemin 03-14-2017 09:20 AM

So what do you think? Will we get Picture4 soon? Or is there still something we need to uncover?

Xavier 03-14-2017 09:23 AM

The videos has little squares appearing at the end when it's glitching. I don't have my computer with me so I can't look much further into it.

tmakz 03-14-2017 09:26 AM

That video was a bit terrifying never again but that claw though....

Gunnr 03-14-2017 09:27 AM

*headsmack* wow.
