Anyone see this today, thoughts?

 

Someone needs to translate the text on the sign ?

I know it was discussed before on here, but I don't remember if anything came out of it. A translation of the words should be the first step.

 

I'm not sure why he said the mountain glyph with the zigzag pattern represented a thunderstorm. Must be one of the more unique viewpoints of it.

 

 

The Korean on the awning says 스포츠웨이 레스토랑 "Sports Way Restaurant." and the sign at the end says 빅스카이 "Big Sky"

Ok so I was messing around with the psychic shoutout/ storm thing. Not 100% sold on it yet although it definitely creates storms. Anyway I died and came out of hospital. A thunderstorm was going on. I wander around and look at the arcadius building. This is the view I got.

Is it me or is there a lightning bolt going down the side? It so was clear in game! Each Tower had one but u can only see one on this picture. I rushed over there but the storm stopped before I could get there.

 

Could just be lighting glitch.

That's called reflection. You know, the thing that light creates. Again, NOT EVERYTHING IS A CLUE!

[jp9865]

Its not a reflection, its caused from the lights inside the building. Anyway I never said it was a clue. Just thought it was a strange coincidence that I've never seen before. Lightning bolts appearing on the side of a building during a storm. Anyway its probably just a lighting glitch. Just thought I would post for other people to see.

[Druminator]

Seems to be rather slow around here lately. Guess we're running out of ideas? Looks like Psychic Shoutout wasn't anything either. I think what I'm going to focus on now are the missing letters. I know there is a list of the ones found so far if anyone could link me to that. I'm very curious to see if all the letters say anything. If not, I would like to disprove it anyway. I would like to gather them all and take pictures myself and try and see if it is a puzzle on its own or not.

It's the reflection from the sun. Look at the shadows. Also, the clue thing was for everybody that is thinking that mirrored images are aliens and stuff like that. People are starting to see things and linking it to the mural or the ufo's.

[jp9865]

From the sun? It was evening time in game. Even if the sun was out ,which I don't remember it being, it wouldn't have been high enough in the sky to make a reflection. I told u what it was, why argue with me about it. It's the lights from inside the building which only turn on at night.

 

@Druminator. There's a building in Strawberry with loads of random letters on the sides.

Not sure what to make of it to be honest. Just anything thing I thought I would share if ur looking at letters! (I know ur looking for missing letters but these just seem random)

 

Also anyone know what made this?

Its on top of a tower iirc. Been a long time since I took that pic.

Happy hunting to you all.

It's been a pleasure helping some of you and a chore reading some of the rest.

My story is complete, I've got all the rewards I want and think there is from the game so it's time for me to move on.

At my age I don't know if I'll even buy a gta6 but if I do I'll likely drop by then with the hope of seeing some of you again.

 

Have fun everyone, I'm out.

@ Drum have you tried the thunderstorm thing yet?

I have not. I was a little skeptical when I saw him say he only tested it on one particular day and kept reloading the game.

Saw a bunch of people on reddit saying it wasnt working for them either. This is getting rather depressing. Really dont wanna see it end this way.

[LawasDS]

I don't know if this has been discussed, but I found this weird looking code that didn't feel like a game thing, it looks rather like an easter egg or some kind of extrange bug.

think just about every possible myth and idea has been milked to the bone this last 6 months. there's nothing more to look for lol.

[SHARKEM]

theres also a z missing from one of the del perro plaza signs. i believe that's worth ten points.

could be more letters to find but i think there's already too many for it to be useful.

[Razgriz67]

Thought just occurred to me. Has anyone had the idea that the 5 boxes indicate the 5 collectibles on the game. Them being nuclear waste, letters, hidden packages (or packages of cash), UFO parts, and epsilon tracts.

 

 

 

Or that what does the random line on the right just above the jet pack and one left of the spaceship mean?

Yeah, one time I got the "no pro's for me" cutscene and saw a girl get picked up so I followed them.Strange thing was after she got kicked out she then gta'd him,drove off down the road then jumped out.

Ya but this wasnt one of the side missions or strangers it was just a car sitting in an ally with its interior lights on and a hooker was straddling some dude as the car was rocking, i waled up and they just kept going so i opened the door, thats when the hooker ran so i shot her then the dude, then i realized i should have taken a pic

[McGyver55]

Somewhere far below lower Manhattan, hidden within a labyrinth of tunnels is a dark room... it's mildewed walls decorated with crude hand drawn copies of the Chiliad Mural, the Textile City Mural and assorted glyphs from the game... all except the far wall which is adorned by a massive multiscreen media center across which scroll various Reddit threads in multiple languages, GTAforums threads and all incoming data concerning the Mural Mystery Hunt... in the center of that room, cloaked in shadow, sitting upon his gilded throne, surrounded by piles of cash and rare gems is the real Dan Houser... a twisted half-man/half-beast monster. It rubs its deformed paws together and laughs at our pain and frustration... it laughs because it knows its revenge is complete and we are beaten... it laughs because it knows it has fooled the world... yet it cries because no one will hold it... it weeps, for it has no soul.

 

Aaaand thats where we stand today!

 

We've been trolled... big time.

 

You know, I really can't believe we haven't found a stupid crappy jetpack yet.

I mean really... how hard was it to make and hide? Did they really have torture us this badly for a friggin' jetpack... I could have made a real one by now.

Bastards.

I don't even know what would be worse now... Finding out that there is no jetpack/prize and that we got trolled by some phantom-of-the-opera-like mutant or that someone (most likely some 10 year old kid in Ottumwa,Iowa who has only played the game for 6 hrs) just found it....

It would be like... "Okay... I have the jetpack now... yay... after 8 or 9 months of searching... and so, it was in a dumpster in back of the strip club the whole time, hu?.... yay."

 

Damn that mural and damn the monster that made it!!

 

Ya, know... I'm just sayin'... thats all.

The Korean on the awning says 스포츠웨이 레스토랑 "Sports Way Restaurant." and the sign at the end says 빅스카이 "Big Sky"

I think it's actually "Sportswear" not "Sports Way." (어, not 이).

 

But come on, people, we covered this months ago...

You're right. I only glanced at it for a second. Looked like 이 at the time. Either way, it's a weird restaurant name.

Whatsup guys hope everyone is well, the thread is dying down but hopefully this "exciting new story mode dlc" talked about on the newswire is what we are all waiting for....

 

Anyway , what I believe as a small but fresh find (i think) :

I was playing GTA Online earlier and encountered some interesting NPCs out in Sandy Shores at around 11pm

 

 

I thought id chill out at the campfire for a moment and see what these hillbillys were up to, and this NPC started saying some very interesting things

 

 

 

He said alot of weird stuff but what stuck out the most were these lines

 

"Tell me you seen those blimps in the sky last night? Theyve gotta be Israeli in design"

 

"Caught some strange sightins in the infra-red telescope past couple nights.....its those Israeli blimps i tell ya"

 

But MOST in-ter-esting was this

" With the new modifications ive made to my spectrometer, theyll never be able to find me"

 

This is the device the altruist NPCs talk about from time to time, another interesting thing to note was when i attacked these NPCs after awhile this guy screamed " they sent you to find me didnt they?!"

Now i dont know what all this stuff about israeli blimps is or whatever lol but just thought it was worth posting about a paranoid NPC talking about spectrometers and things in the sky?

 

If anyone wants to go and spook this NPC out and hear this for themselves here is the location marked with the red X

Notes : this was at 11pm (not sure of the day if relevant) and while playing in online mode

I had the same dialog from an NPC at the Cluckin Bell pageant area, older fellow that also talked about Granada. Definitely an egg to Call of Duty.

[tresshold]

 

 

 

just a thought that I just had, what about if you park the SD out there and honk to try to get a npc in the car just like the hooker thing.

its worth the try.

[Dog_Bread]

I've heard the Altruists say those exact same lines about Israeli war-blimps. I wonder if these guys are altruists or sympathetic to their cause.
