Apparently if you solve the clues here you'll find a website with info on some new game. Meh.

it looks like all lines use the same letters.
that's as far as I'm going with it.

You can spell Armageddon with the letters too. And have
Ykarcis

left over.

Is there any chance this is a game any of us will get excited about? Anyway someone go translate the hebrew french and german and shit.

For some reason this game makes me think a new Myst game is coming. Which I hope I'm wrong because the Myst games absolutely suck. I'd love it if this was to announce like an Eternal Darkness 2 though.

I HOPE that it's Eternal Darkness.

at evilavatar they're speculating it's Tomb Raider. Also

Click the O

Click the light far left.

Use the viny poles somehow. No idea wtf to do from here.

"german says: something about a "war of darkness""
"french says: "What does that want to say? Who are the Eight?" (+ an allusion to Shepherds)
"2012 is the year the Mayan Calendar predicted the world would end, October somethinig 2012. It's definitly a conspiracy/end of the world themed game or some sort."

OK SO if you click on Yorker you get a different set of three symbols, and there's another light that flicks on in the fourth big building from the left that gives you ANOTHER different set of symbols, AND the light on the boat on the far bottom right gives you a fourth set. There's more, find it on evilav.

The puzzle is cracked and some concept artwork is the reward. It seems that a new picture is unlocked every 24-hours, as the countdowns in place of the pictures reveals. The game seems to be called Cry Gaia, or at least that's the working title.

Disappointing.

if it is, the only logical explination is theyre following the TAoD story, or the legend story is going god knows where.

These 2 things could theoretically lead one to think it might be connected to Eternal Darkness some how.

I need a thread rename.

Cry Gaia Forums

Developed by Funcom.

"The whole "dark days are coming" part of the mystery reinforces my instinct that Mayan mythology and eclipse prophecies for the end of 2012 will be involved, but since all the ancient tribes were obsessed with where the celestial orbits first came into view in the sky on one day in time, it looks like this game will draw from multiple mythologies to make things as fun as possible. It seems like some of the forum members are obviously involved with the game's development team, and are trying to lead readers around like some new form of an Alternate Reality Game. "

"Map coordinates are also popping up, including Shanghai, London, and New York, which when you connect the dots as a triangle, are somewhat close to global 1x, 2x, 3x distances apart from one another. Expect the golden mean to pop up soon in the clues and lead a spiraling path around the globe that points to more ancient civilizations and puzzles."

Nobody knows if this is The World Online or not yet.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Double-agreed if it's really an mmo.

what a fucking let down :(

I just lost interest in this. MMORPGs need to not exist.

That's the fucking truth right there.

Thanks for the flattering subtitle. I like ARG's.

Anyway the four symbols are zodiac signs and the names for them are another anagram of dark days are coming.

So what the fuck are they calling this game?

So, if this an mmo or not? Cause if not, that concept art is awesome.

It is. Even if this game is good, everyone who ready what you said, will say to themselves, yeah but it "could" have been Eternal Darkness, and then just shrug their shoulders and forget about their wives.

I'm still crying that it isn't eternal darkness.

Dam. that looks sick. MMO huh? maybe ill check it out. it cant be as annoying as FFXI can it?
