I swear, I've searched and it's like nobody else wants to know what's next. No Reddit, nothing. It's like it's literally only 3 people trying to figure this out.

I noticed that too, these types of things usually get a following quite quick. It hasn't really been picked up yet but it's early days I guess. I might make a reddit post to get it noticed?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Megaton. Hope that there isn't an asshole who spoils the game for the rest.

That's what I was saying. Would be megaton.

I just find it interesting that a lot of the promotions for this game have been set in current times. Of course it could mean nothing but it could also be a huge clue we're overlooking.

 

[delta25]

You know this cool and all, but the gameplay still isn't doing anything for me.

 

[seabass0]

Mustache hype

 

[raidergale]

That stuff with OTP encryption is way too hard for me :/

They posted a new picture though, but I don't think it's extremely relevant.

Which translates to

There can be meaning in darkness

Kinda irrelevant when this is a thread for the ARG but cool I guess, join in on the ARG!

Hmm interesting, I just noticed the new posts, I didn't expect new ones. Just got home so will have another good look before I eat.

EDIT: One thing I have noticed, the post that has OTP and the numbers in, it now has a dash between some of them. I'm 99% sure that wasn't like that yesterday so someone slipped up and corrected it.. or is giving us a hint since it might be too vague.

This armband is one of the things Ian pulled out of his great-grandfather’s trunk… is it from The Order? Or another group? To be quite honest I’m not sure what’s important and what’s not. It’s always been Ian that made the big connections, I just do the legwork and research for him. And try to back him up when he gets in over his head, which has happened pretty often over the years.

I just hope this time he hasn’t gone too far. No. I’m not going there. He always takes off and then shows up again when you’re at your wits end. I’m sure he’s fine. But I’m going to need all of you to help me make sense of everything and bring this whole thing to light.

Yeah, I checked the linked Darwin book and page 546 is chapter 14, so it could explain the "546-14", but I still don't get how that's linked to the OTP :/

 

[BraXzy]

I don't get what to solve at this point.. I don't think we have everything we need to actually get anywhere yet :/

Not sure what the recent encrypted clue is hinting at, I've tinkered with every image in photoshop and not noticed anything yet.. I'll keep looking.

Could be the fourteenth word is a keyphrase which is 'structures'. Could have something to do with the first paragraph considering it is fourteen lines long. Don't really know yet.

 

[Mr. Giggles]

See lots of avatars here without moustaches...

 

[BraXzy]

Cracked the first One-Time Pad!

The cipher (encoded message) = UcrxtfwvRahfzVuyzwXspgbIsfedXgys (Part 1 of 4)

OTP = How these difficulties can be mastered

Throw that into a decryption program as a key for the cipher and it spits out:

NOVEMBEROSCARTANGOTANGOHOTELECHO

So 'Not The' is the first part of 4. I'm guessing it'll result in a URL?

I found the key to the cipher in the Darwin book; Page 546, line 14 (OTP 546-14)

Fan made or viral marketing? Too high quality for it to be fan made.

A tumblr page is too high quality to be fan made?

Anyone know how the 'There can be meaning in darkness' was decoded?

One of the first posts on the site included a page of encrypted writing (same as that one) and they kindly provided the key to decrypt it. Post can be found here.

This is the key:

Thanks, and good solve on the OTP. I figured it had to do with that page but didn't have time to fuck around with it too much.

Are the numbers from the email solved yet?

Since they weren't posted anywhere in this thread, here is the email I got

Hello,

I’m travelling and will only have sporadic access to my email. I’ll try to get back to you as soon as I’m able.

Cheers,
Ian

Is everyone getting the same numbers?

I believe that's the rebel logo

 

[dave is ok]

I solved the numbers. More military alphabet letters.

 

[BraXzy]

I got the same numbers yup. Using the square cipher method it turns into HISTORY (spelt out in NATO phonetic). So far there's tidbits of clues and things to solve with no lead to anything new :/

 

[Ledhead]

I will join you all in this ARG. Can't say I will contribute much, I'm not too good at these things, but i'm along for the ride nonetheless

Yeah, just figured that one out. They made it pretty easy by tweeting this

That's been posted on the site a couple of times hehe

There's a fair few posts on there already, it's a matter of working out what is background lore and what are clues.

 

[vesvci]

Oooooh I like this. Good stuff!

 

[Auctopus]

I really hope this title does well, purely because the potential to do: The Order: 1942, The Order: 2145 etc. is massive.

 

[GavinUK86]

So is this where everyone hyping the trailer, wanting moustaches and entry to the hype-carriage went after modbot shut the party down?

OT I'm enjoying reading what people are discovering. You're better at this kinda stuff than I am that's for sure!

 

[dave is ok]

They're making us solve a tagline they've already used to promote the game...

hrm

Hmm, if that's the thing we are working out I'm confused xD

 

[Aces&Eights]

Hype!

Can I join your hypecoach?

 

[raidergale]

Cracked the first One-Time Pad!

Oh, I was close then, I would've eventually tried the entirety of page 546
Good job on solving that!

Ha! Told you it was probably referring to something along those lines. It was quite vague, so I'm glad they fixed it heh.

But yeah, along this and the email code, it spells out the slogan of the game. What now lol. Probably wait until Ian's friend puts something else up.

And the arm band was probably from the rebels who teamed up with the half breeds.

That's quite obviously a symbol for the Tower of London (the whole ravens thing being most likely a victorian era myth btw).

Interesting....

Thanks! Was kinda hoping for something more exciting than part of a tagline though hehe!

I figure there's more to it though. If "Not The" was made up of 1 of 4 scrambles, and "History" is from the email.. that means 2 or 3 One-Time Pad ciphers are left for "You Know" which seems excessive so maybe there's more to it?

 

[Deleted member 80556]

Yeah, I guess we have to wait.

 

[Acquiescence]

I just realised, the trailer thread was locked. Fuck! That was an awesome thread.

So certainly confirms rebels are in cahoots with the lycans. Good work on solving the first clue...looking forward to more and will,help where I can.

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

How many of these have there been? They seems to be a litany of these.

They're all the rage.

 

[Arkham]

Mods closed the last thread because of all the hype without anything else new. I'm still maintaining the HypeCoach:1886 and will update it for the OT if the mods allow it.

ARG's? There have been a couple recently but there's nothing to complain about, they're awesome!

Anyone stumbled upon anything? At all? I've hit a dead end.

That's a raven, not a werewolf. It's a reference to the tower of london.

Cool. I don't think you ever put me on it back in the other thread. Would you kindly?

yes I know but is that not the logo and armband the Rebels wear?

I just assumed the next would be WW1

 

[DoubleTake]

Id love to see them go back in time to when The Order was formed, assuming they dont cover that in this installment.

Also, I envy you guys with faces as avatars...Mr. Bloodborne wishes he had a nice thick stache

 

[BouncyFrag]

God I love marketing like this.

It begins...

 

[Cider]

Hype hype hype hype hype hype hype.
Why is it not february yet and why do I have 3 midterms 4 days after The Order comes out?
