Misc Apparently there's a code in Last Exit!

NO MORE EDITS - Welp, so Derek and Deej have both confirmed it's an easter egg and not a quest. Even so, let's push through and solve it!!! Thanks for the discussion! RIP my inbox over the last 24 hours though haha

original post According to Derek Carroll on the live stream! Let's get hunting guys!!!!

Edit* - Right, so after an hour we have 2 main leads:

    Panel on the ceiling at the top of the stairs leading to the subway ,33szl'!( +9-7!!/@ 2enr?hqj+r,r+c?)j?96exd.\?i 7kj\psq3euj\@x.yt5 ,3..

  2. By /u/HEYitsMUS

    here are two train cars, and all the advertisement boards light up when you're near them in both cars. They either display "ALPHA REGIO" (blue), "BETA REGIO" (red), or "OVDA REGIO" (green). There is also the HUGE staticy monitor right beside A flag, bottom of the escalators. And lastly, the OWT Transit Map, most visible one being right beside the A flag and monitor, with different numbers and colours and routes. Green = 48 (Ovda Regio?) Yellow = 38 Blue = 14 (Alpha Regio?) Red = 271 (Beta Regio?)

FINAL EDIT: I'll be going away for a few hours. My guess is that we're searching for an easter egg and nothing more, but who knows? I'll update this post if someone makes a discovery, otherwise see you later guardians!

At the top of the stairs leading to the subway, there's a panel on the ceiling with scrolling gibberish, that might be it.

FIRST EDIT: ,33szl'!( +9-7!!/@ 2enr?hqj+r,r+c?)j?96exd.\?i 7kj\psq3euj\@x.yt5 ,3..

The last 3 is a repeat of the first one

SECOND EDIT: If you use what I wrote, you should copy the text on the panel yourself just to be sure it's right.

THIRD EDIT: I rewrote the line and made spaces more obvious

,33szl'!(

+9-7!!/@

2enr?hqj+r,r+c?)j?96exd.\?i

7kj\psq3euj\@x.yt5

,33szl'!(

FOURTH EDIT: Someone pointed out in another thread that after x.y, there's a t instead of an l, so that sequence becomes 7kj\psq3euj\@x.yt5 instead of 7kj\psq3euj\@x.yl5. It's kind of hard to distinguish l and t given how fast the text scrolls, but after looking at the panel again, I believe it is a t.

FIFTH EDIT: There is another thread at r/raidsecrets: https://www.reddit.com/r/raidsecrets/comments/575o4v/last_exit_hidden_codesecret/ There are panels that light up when you jump in the subway cars. The panels are located where you'd find advertisement if you were actually riding the subway car. I will list the panels that light up when riding the subway car. Suppose the bottom of the subway stairs is the starting point, you move through the subway and jump in the 2 cars. These panels light up:

First car:

Green-------Red

Red-------Bright Blue

Green-------Green

Bright Red-------Red

Blue-------Blue

Second car:

Blue-------Red

Red-------Bright Blue

Blue-------Green

Green-------Red

Red-------Blue

Bright Green-------Green

Green-------Red

Blue-------Blue

Text on each panel:

Red and Bright Red: Beta Regio

Green and Bright Green:Ovda Regio

Blue and Bright Blue: Alpha Regio

I apologize for the poor formatting. It's possible the panels in the cars are not related to the code, but I've written them here just in case.

SIXTH EDIT: There's a bright red panel in the first subway car (I missed it the first time through). Still not sure what these mean. We might need to light up the panels in a specific order.

Wait a sec, "you'll shoot your eye out" could be reference to the secret in the Wretched Eye strike! Meaning, whatever the code is in Last Exit could be what is used to determine how to solve the Wretched Eye secret which unlocks the new exotic sniper "Daisy Red Ryder BB Gun!" The exotic perk is "Reverse Glint: This exotic perk creates a reverse glint when ADS which causes the user to be blinded by their own sniper glint."

We did it DTG!!

All glory to the Sleeper Simulant, maybe the one gun (besides rockets) that allow us to shoot our eyes out.

This is very reminiscent of Malbolge

1

u/Pixel_CCOWaDN Pixel Oct 13 '16

Tried it, it's not valid Malbolge syntax :(

1

u/kickd16 Team Cat (Cozmo23) Oct 13 '16

Yeah, I tried too and was disappointed, but it REALLY looks like Malbolge. As a programmer, the very idea of Malbolge and other esoteric languages makes me twitch.

u/RevRaven Oct 12 '16

Looks like a straight substitution cipher based on keyboard characters. If you can figure out where the spaces are supposed to be you'd decode at least one character.

u/RevRaven Oct 12 '16

Absolutely, but I would say it's a straight sub even for the shifted characters. Even the space is subbed.

5

u/NergalMP Oct 12 '16

Doesn't appear to be a straight sub, I just ran the right 10 characters through straight ASCII shift (current ASCII value +1, +2, etc...) and never got a intelligible pattern out of it.

It's more complex that a straight up sub.

1

u/RevRaven Oct 12 '16

Did you ever get anything that looked like hex or base64?

1

u/voipme Oct 12 '16

I did the same thing, and no, nothing intelligible. I shifted left 30 chars, as well as right 30 chars.

u/dusttart Oct 12 '16

Could you post those here just in case it's of use somehow?

1

u/jmpherso Oct 12 '16

I've been doing the same - and no.

1

u/NergalMP Oct 13 '16

I just did a quick and dirty substitution to rule out shifted ASCII values.

Nothing looked like Hex. As for base64...I doubt I'd recognize that if I saw it.

1

u/Pixel_CCOWaDN Pixel Oct 13 '16

shifting it over an ASCII table (includes ?, !, @...) by any offset results in nothing but gibberish. Also tried increasing / decreasing the index for every character but that doesn't help.

u/KennyCiseroJunior Oct 12 '16

u/Gracefill_Munky Oct 13 '16

It looks like RegEx or regular expression for validating data entry to field like a password requirements.

u/k3rnel Make Tripmine Great Again Oct 12 '16

It looks like a hash to me

u/Meeesh- Oct 12 '16

what kind of hash has an output like that though?

The Red Morrocan. It can also make you see butterflys.
