Im probably wrong but, are these cookie 'codes' any help to anything?


Do you think it is capital golf?

I tried that. I even tried doing every letter in the alphabet but that was taking too long so I stopped.

EDIT: Delta's new images file name is the password. Gonna try it.

yeah this comes when that 'first'? password is entered.

1/7 completed - a nice start

expect more to come

since the first password was in the 2nd image he posted (and took down) then what does the image name now mean:
Miller_Industries_Secure_File_kLAciESP6aP0IebR-7.png

edit: from the 'source' image, the second letter is : 德 which means 'moral' in English.
edit3: AH, no, it is:商
商德 = Business German (using crappy Google translate, does anyone know of a good Chinese translating program).
edit2: Good morning, if anyone find anything relating to 'save a crew' or 'west Germany', please say so

What could Business German mean (or German Business)....

The 2 Chinese characters on the "source" image posted earlier are 商標, which just mean "trademark" anyway. I won't know what it means if they are meant to represent Japanese kanji instead.

They should mean exactly the same.

What is it with all these fucking viral marketing campaigns? JUST MAKE GAMES PLEASE?!

[NoFace]

Not very viral eh?

[Dr. Delta]

For what I expected it's viral enough, couple hundred unique visitors to the website. The people I've spoken with seemed to enjoy the ARG, so I guess that counts too. But not CANVAS viral, no.

Marks, you're either eagerly awaiting what it's all about or you're just really fed up with viral marketing. :p

[Ich 666]

The second (at least for me).

yeah blame the guy for trying to get people interested in a mod/game?
it does take time and planning to get this sort of stuff on the road you know.. it doesn't come falling form the skies and it's like 'here take this, use it as an evil marketing scheme'

True this but is that bad? I would like to see arg's have better/tighter integration with the games. Maybe for example secret levels that only get downloaded if someone has found the arg page and whatnot. arg's have been around for awhile but their possibilities are still not fully explored. At the gdc I heard some interesting stuff about the future of 'multi reality gaming' where arg's will tie together traditional games with augmented reality games.

But all that aside I think it can also be a good way for people to go deeper into the mythos of a world/character/game, perhaps there are clues in delta's arg that can help us to better understand the circumstances of the game world? Perhaps there can be 'in-jokes' or references in the mod that someone not familiar with the arg would pass by, but someone familiar with it would laugh or say 'oh thats cool!'
