PC version had Blizzcon Bastion before this. What's new is morse code on Dorado

The end of that video perfectly captures how the whole Overwatch community feels about this ARG. Lmao

Yeah, I figured Bastion was going to be bleeping something out when they were brought up.

Morse code. Woo hoo. Now they should hide picture tiles in different maps that have to be pieced together.

I don't want more of that shit, honestly.

 

[Ricerocket]

So what does the morse code say?

This is so annoying now. It's not fucking fun anymore blizzard

numbers appearing on loading screens?

 

[Stone Ocean]

So what does the morse code say?

First letter is an S, got bored afterwards

Probably something stupid like "Sombra is coming"

 

[--R]

So what does the morse code say?

SQOFJFBNITIZWGDXSDO

I don't have a clue on what that is tho.

OP is just fucking around. Multiple users have posted S Q O F J F B N I T I Z W G D X S D O as decoded result making it most likely right answer.

[Exile20]

is this fun anymore?

 

[fwpx]

is this fun anymore?

Was it EVER fun?

 

[Rocketz]

No it wasnt

 

[Diablohead]

If this was a weekly thing then it would be ok, this is just flat out annoying at all levels.

 

[Omega Kirby]

I'm pretty sure there are some people defending this and saying it's super duper fun

 

[konjak]

It's just morse in some random language and all it will say is some generic hacker lingo

 

[Kyzon]

Great.. a cypher.

This is so bad

 

[KLoWn]

Was it EVER fun?

No it wasnt

Yes it was. And if the ARG hadn't been this drawn out and absolutely botched, a clue like this would've been fun to find too. Now it doesn't feel like it'll lead anywhere so it just gives the feeling that it's pointless.

D...r....I......n....k......y.....o....u.....r.....O...

Can't figure out the rest :/

 

[Bookoo]

This ARG was pretty stupid if they are just releasing the character at Blizzcon. I thought ARGs were supposed to like involve the community to "unlock" the character.

Calling the number has some chick saying numbers in spanish with static interference. Site also lists the date "November 1"

I solved that! (very easy)

The numbers are just letter numbers and the string needed to be caeser shifted for byaxztakecontrol

which led to https://lumerico.mx/TAKECONTROL/index.html

Ovaltine.

 

[KiefbladeMaster]

Man, still going on with this huh. Just tell everyone you're releasing her right before the con, Blizzard. This was dumb as soon as you introduced the timer website.

 

[Mine01]

Someone please stop blizzar, it phisically hurts now

 

[Tovarisc]

Man, still going on with this huh. Just tell everyone you're releasing her right before the con, Blizzard.

You meant to say announce officially at BlizzCon, have her playable on show floor and push to PTR post-BlizzCon?

 

[EmCeeGramr]

the morse code is bastion saying that it has a virus now, and it's dying, and there's no cure

 

[KiefbladeMaster]

Haha, you're totally right - my mistake.

 

[Nirolak]

Close, but it's saying that about Mei.

 

[BannedEpisode]

"Thanks everyone for coming! I'm Jeff. We have a lot of exciting things to ta-"

-Lights flicker out and sombra skull shows up on screen-

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?? Whaaaaaats happennninh?! We're being hacked? Oh my gosh Sombra?!?" :0 "wow isn't this exciting?"

 

[show me your skeleton]

i hope that in an unprecedented move, she's only useable by those that purchase her for 30,000 coins.

 

[KLoWn]

Announcing her at Blizzcon would be retarded. Release her before and announce Doomfist at Blizzcon.

 

[hbkajshdvfbkjhvgkahsgdfka]

Close, but it's saying that about Mei.

Didn't expect a moderator would behave like this. This is allowed?

 

[Sai-kun]

the morse code is bastion saying that it has a virus now, and it's dying, and there's no cure

finally, they're patching bastion out of the game.

 

[KLoWn]

What?

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Didn't expect a moderator would behave like this. This is allowed?

Yes, but not about Mei. There's a specific rule in the secret TOS about that

 

[Fersis]

All this for a characte that is not Pharah in a Voleyball kit seems pretty pointless.
I liked Ana reveal and release strategy way more =/

 

[PAULINK]

We found the mei mein boys, lock him up.

 

[maouvin]

And that McCree shall replace his pistol with the turret.

Some updates for those who care:

We came with Lumérico (thanks to the Dorado Loading Screen, "we got Lumerico from Dorado loading screen, which had the phone number in the corner written smally. The same phone number is on lumerico site." ~Kitsune Discord)
Calling the number on Lumérico gives you some numbers (https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/58bppr/call_the_number_on_the_lumerico_website_and/)
PTR Update? https://gyazo.com/4b33898ddf38d9a21f7070c4fd8f3ec6

This coulda been so cool if the countdown was 2 days instead of 2 months

 

[Sai-kun]

nirolak is probably hacked as part of the sombra arg...let's see where this goes, yall...

He's an admin, Mei trolling is required.

I swear, there are times when I die in a match to a Mei blizzard, rush back out to my team and proceed to get ult'ed again. :/

 

[Evil Beaver]

Stop. Blizzard. Pls

 

[Tovarisc]

Mei get ult charge from dealing damage and gathering salt of her victims. There is plenty of latter so she gets ult back fast.
