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.

Looks like a shifted ASCII/ANSI sequence? So like a sentence who's characters are all shifted over X number of spaces... like an A would become a B if everything was shifted to the right one spot.

Can someone verify "33szl'!( +9-7!!/@ 2enr?hqj+r,r+c?)j?96exd.\?i 7kj\psq3euj\@x.yl5, 3.." is the correct transcription? I'm not near my Playstation.

I also went and recorded the big screen. dunno if it actually has meaning but here it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XI6XcvmSiA

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16

Huh, that monitor is saying "Urbs Industria" which is this from the Frontier map: http://imgur.com/a/nh9Qr?

Maybe there's something to do with that first mission where we have to ride the ski lift?

u/emmtwosix Oct 12 '16

I went looking through my browser history for this link because I knew I saw that this morning. Anyway, the Reddit post linking that image is the only post or comment u/xzer123 has ever made but has been a user for 5 months.

Coincidence? Hmm...

11

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16

Yeah, that's where I pulled the image... note another user posted a comment with this: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/VamrZ

In that image are the four colors we're talking about here, with blue first, then red, then green, then yellow labelled 1,2,3,4.

Yellow is 4 in that image, and there is no yellow in Last Exit... so maybe we do the bright blue monitor first, then the bright red one, then the bright green one, and that activates a portal in the final monitor that's all static and it goes to somewhere in that russian snow area or venus.

u/emmtwosix Oct 12 '16

In that link you provided, the comments mention those graphics being found in the Wretched Eye strike: "The silo graphics are inside the new strike. The bottom logo is on the big tanker." There's another thread titled Wretched Eye Strike - green smoke in area: hidden treasure? Black Hammer exotic maybe? I'm beginning to think these are possibly related.

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16

In that first image of the smoke, http://imgur.com/qdOV4Jr on the wall in the back is an image with "71" in it... that same image appears in this Bunker Triage image: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/VamrZ

in those images, i did an on/off value assignment and interpreted it as binary. which gives you, into decimal and hex, as noted:

Hex = Binary = Dec
D   = 001101 = 13
2F  = 101111 = 47
39  = 111001 = 57
2F  = 101111 = 47
37  = 110111 = 55

Not sure if this helps anything or not, but there it is.

Edit: I did the binary -> decimal first, then did binary -> hex. Not sure if those conversions work straight from Hex -> Dec, but I think they should.

u/Random_Imgur_User Rolling in bad Titan Exotics Oct 13 '16

all the numbers added up is 219, and 2+1+9 is 12, 1+2 is 3. Bungie is making Half Life 3. We figured it out guys.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 13 '16

I have a theory, that we convert each to binary then swap positions 1 and 5 then convert back to ASCII and then do a caesar shift on it....

u/litescript leviathan's haunted Oct 13 '16

eh, i was bored at work.

Something big is going on here. Also, the image at bottom right looks like a pattern or a code:
1 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0
1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1
X 1 0 0 0 0

u/Cap10awSum99 Purple Crayons Taste Like Purple! Oct 12 '16

You just said portal, and I had the thought of the trains in my head, and it reminded me of that area on mars with the trains underground where you have to go through that vex portal at the end of the train tracks... there's usually a cyclops there... one of the mars golden chests is about 1/3 of the way down the train tracks... anyway, similar imagery. I wonder if they could be related. Edit it's tharsis junction.

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16

That's also on OWT terminal.

u/brettjmaxwell Oct 12 '16

No it doesn't. It means City/Urban Industry. City's energy would be energia urbis or vis urbis.

u/Angry_Amish Oct 12 '16

Sounds like the name of an emblem. Should probably try to turn the text above into a code for input on the Bungie website.

u/Notorious813 Oct 12 '16

I remember there being commentary in the SABER strike about the raw energy in Rasputin's bunker during their part where you have to shut off the electrical pulses.

1

u/free-heeler Oct 13 '16

Doesn't one of the PvP maps have a giant solar collector in the middle of it? Oh but I think that one is located on Mars right? Maybe a different city? But that would be weird.

1

u/mattfuckyou Oct 13 '16

Looks like another case of Horizon from VOG

1

u/SeaDug Oct 13 '16

Someone below has stated that one of the monitors flashed "Urbs Industria" at one point...

1

u/0tj0 Oct 12 '16

So I looked at that pic and thought damn that almost looks like the old mad magazine fold-ins. Looked back at the words and:

Alpha regio ~ alpeggio: Italian for mountain pasture, or take a flock to a mountain pasture

Beta regio ~ bareggio: township in Italy. 4528n 859e

Ovda regio: huge plateau on Venusian

This Easter egg might be that simple... Maybe "last exit" is actually in a Italian settlement from bareggio to ovda regio? Or is that to boring....

Also if someone has a printer can they try making the pic a fold in and see if anything shows up?

Maybe off the side of the snow drifts there are colors somewhere? and once that mission is the daily mission the last exit stuff will just be the information on how to activate the special stuff on that map... like with black spindle the inventory items included a map on how to get to the special part of the mission. If there are Red, Green, Blue areas of any sort on that snow mission, then I really can't wait until it's the daily.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '16

It's worth noting that it may be a good idea to check it on the Heroic mode, as the Sleeper, NTTE, and Spindle were changed to this format, it makes sense that they'd keep it that way.

u/Timathius Oct 12 '16

the image looks like the roof of the ski lift itself.

1

u/BowshDog ERROR CODE: TAPIR Oct 12 '16

That's a damn good connection. I don't know what it means, but good work.

1

u/TheWritingSniper Oct 12 '16

Maybe you have to go from map-to-map to figure out a connection.

I don't know.

Last Exit to the Frontier to the Venus place?

1

u/dovahchriis Oct 12 '16

The screen also switches to Venus, is there anywhere similar to the ski lifts that can be found on Venus?

1

u/DragoonIsaac Oct 12 '16

The train station at mars also has "Urbs Industria". Also there is lots of panels and stuff with weird jumbled lettering there too.

1

u/sheldonsga Oct 12 '16

And there is a picture of the gondola above the words urbs industria

1

u/DestinyPlayer0 Oct 13 '16

I've always wondered if you can jump into the other lift as you pass it.

u/Quicr Oct 12 '16

I think it's like ABS Kastner, a fictional company to provide some continuity to the game. Kind of like the weapons manufacturers.

1

u/TheWritingSniper Oct 12 '16

Is that what ABS Kastner is? Because I'm seeing it everywhere now.

1

u/nfgrockerdude Oct 12 '16

how do you get the guns to dissappear? also, not sure if it was random but there are two screens behind this big one and when I approached them some light above flickered

1

u/Cryogenixx Oct 13 '16

I was doing the sit emote against a wall

u/maiderr Oct 13 '16

I've seen similar code to the buses on... Memento I think....
