bp9801 Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 I'm betting on it being like, "Drink your Ovaltine" or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Ivy, it's a collection of the deciphered collection of morse code, code etc that showed up on the Survivor2099 website Incorrect. It's proof that some people have way too much time on their hands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 Ivy, it's a collection of the deciphered collection of morse code, code etc that showed up on the Survivor2099 website Incorrect. It's proof that some people have way too much time on their hands. And that it's probably a hoax since the Survivor 2299 site is hosted in Poland, among other things: "Reddit users have traced the countdown code to a Polish web developer, Krzysztof Furtak. The code is available publicly under the GNU GPL license. Does this explain the presence of Polish variables in the code? Maybe. It doesn't explain, however, why the site was initially hosted on a Polish server or why a multimillion dollar gaming company would use a GPL code when they have enough web designers of their own. A strong dose of skepticism is recommended." "ZeniMax does not use GoDaddy for domain registration. They rely on the services of CSC Corporate Domains, Inc." "The site references assets from the defunct Prepare for the Future website, rather than a new domain. Furthermore, it is possible to submit fake registration details while applying for a domain, allowing one to mimic a corporation" "Another issue is that the supposed reveal uses the European date format, rather than American (i.e. days are in front of months, not the other way around)." Basically, it's incredibly fishy. If Bethesda is actually outsourcing to a Polish company, it's doing things in a very weird way. I'd like it to be Fallout 4, sure, but I'm leaning more and more towards a very well done hoax. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanTheGamer11 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 Ivy, it's a collection of the deciphered collection of morse code, code etc that showed up on the Survivor2099 website Incorrect. It's proof that some people have way too much time on their hands. Well actually the page is dedicated to what's been on the website so you're incorrect Whether it's true or not is is yet to be seen... probably a hoax though.

ClayMeow Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 I'm going with fake for now. Maybe there'll be something during the VGAs, but who knows. Sorry to disappoint, but.... No, folks. I am not going to VGX. Bethesda is not showing/talking about anything at VGX. Just some PR meetings in LA. Take deep breaths.

bp9801 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 I said "maybe there'll be something." The fact that Bethesda isn't announcing a thing during VGX doesn't bother me in the slightest. Other people? Hell they'll probably revolt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyt Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 probably a hoax though. And after clicking the hyperlink at the bottom (after censoring the swearwords): And the faint glimmer of hope for Fallout 4 is now slowly fading... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 LOL Bethesda didn't say anything about the website too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 Because it's probably not Bethesda running it, like what I said in a previous post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 I don't think they'd be that unprofessional Yeah, pretty much every website said that too, started to fall apart when they discovered the Polish host. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 MOAR "War. War never changes," "Casting calls for both the male and female versions of the player character note that the player begins the game in a cryogenic sleep chamber." I read this first, I thought it was going to be a Rage sequel. How do you change the highlight colour with the new forums? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
