Decoding the Mount Chiliad Mural

[Awolspitfire]

It's not about dismissing anything. It's about the burden of proof. You have none I'm afraid.

That's why we need to FIND proof. and there is only one way to prove or disprove a hypothesis: Experiment.

I think I know where the Jetpack is. I also think Iknow where the flyable UFO is, and possibly the egg. The reason we've had little luck with the mural before is because we've been taking it on face value, associating the symbols. But then we get this message, 'segregate and rearrange.' THE GLYPHS ARE IN THE WRONG PLACES. The layout is all that matters. By overlaying it this way, the JetPack is in humane labs, the UFO over the galileo, and a cross marks the alien monument. The red eye with the lines around at the top symbolises splashdown, and lines up perfectly with the UFO crash! Can someone with 100% drive to the other crosses on the map? Also, notice Mt. Chiliad is right on the point where ALL THE LINES MEET? http://s840.photobucket.com/user/chalky500/media/THEMURALFINAL_zps9b629e5a.png.html

Can you do better with the picture? I can't see a thing on that, no way to zoom in on it.

I went to the humane labs but couldn't find anything

Maybe there's conditions. It'd suit that they wouldnt make it easy. But why an instant wanted level? Why such tight security, and why, when linign up the mural perfectly with the coast, does the jetpack fall right on top of it?

If you're so sure about the humane labs, maybe try during the mission.

[Chakeino]

Sorry for my question, but is it for real that Jetpack in the game? Well, I mean, is it very likely?

It couldn't hurt to replay it i suppose

It doesn't work, as the crashed ufo is a good 15-20 degrees clockwise... And also about half the distance away from the shore that you have it.

A fair observation but i should probably remind you that like the jetpack icon, the UFO icon could be drastically overscaled. Also take into account that the icon shows point of impact, not point of rest.

Can you scuba through the pipeline into the labs after completing the game?

no it's blocked but im not sure if anyone's been able to search properly, due to the wanted level... which, again, strikes me as odd...

And your proof of this is?!

My friend, everything is but speculation until we investigate for ourselves. And investigate we must. The point of impact theory is simply because of the splash lines, it's no the most sturdy assumption but what else do we have, really? We have to disprove it at least beofre we drown in unanswerd questions.

[BTilla]

This thread is full of half baked theory.

We need to try and THEN share, not wildly speculate.

I can't try, I'm not 100%, so i was asking for some help testing it.

I'm certain the mystery in this egg has something to do with the 5 missing epsilon tracts. R* has had a few updates and still the epsilon tracts stay at 15. Where are the other 5? Five boxes, five missing tracts...

O/ne thing everyone keeps harping on about is a chiliad base... who says there is one? The mural WAS thought to be a cross section of the mountain, and then the hollow mountain theory just sorta stuck, even when we drisproved/repurposed the mural. WTF? We are focusing too much on chiliad here.

[iDogma]

Why do you guys lay the mural every way but the way the Eye symbol atop of the mountain is facing?

It's clearly going this way looking at a map from north to south.

<--------------- >(|)

 

 

Everyone always has the mural running from north to south.

Now it's turning it east to match things up, why not match it up with the plain as day symbol at the top of the hill that clearly is looking west.

[iDogma]

If you do what I said and fly out and look at the mountain to the west, it resembles the mural only backwards, so flip the mural and you clearly have the same outline as the mural apply to the mountain.

i mentioned this a couple pages back but no one has come up with a pic yet

[iDogma]

The mural in the lift room is even viewed by the player while looking at it from the west.

The red eye at the top of chilliad is looking west I think we need to focus on west!

[Awolspitfire]

 

Nice. Find. SO LONG WE HAVE AWAITED A LINE UP.

[AnEvilVet]

Brian, please stop. If you want to contribute, do so in a productive manner. Come up with EASILY testable theories and accept it when they're disproved. You're not the messiah, you're a very naughty boy.

[Awolspitfire]

Just... THIS.

I completely respect you guys who are spending hours and hours trying to figure this all out. I will no way be taking part in this hunt... I know for a fact that if I do, I will end up in a marrage similar to Mikes although, my wife would kick me out rather than leave.

 

I will be keeping an eye on this thread.

[MightyWhite89]

Nothing changes if you do all the good things, and let innocent people live. So what is your point?

[Okin]

Lol hang yourself Brian.
