Gotta be Fallout. The website reminds me of the UVB-76 broadcast.
 
See thats how you build exitment and hype!! and something cool for your game not just get a ART book!!!
But Fallout:New Vegas would be cool or something cept under a big shroud....
and if it is crappy COD news maybe it will be for dedicated servers and better gameplay... with free maps for pc
 
Another point to make that this is about Fallout: New Vegas is the word choice for the acronym, CIPHER.
 
They better hope they know where it's coming from before they just start plugging in those flash drives. It could be loaded with something nasty. I remember hearing not to long ago about how in China they were giving high profile businessmen free flash drives as so called "gifts" but little did they know that once they used the drive it would allowing them to get whatever they needed from them.

And that, my friend, is why God invented Linux.
 
Sounds like Fallout for sure its been what 2 years since fallout3 sounds about right! New Call Of Duty is pending! Doesn't matter wont play anything for a while BFBC2 is the *%#$ don't even want to think about anything else right now!
 
[citation][nom]carlhenry[/nom]the site is weird. try to stare at the blue thingy and you'll start thinking its shrinking.[/citation]

uhm...it sort of is. Did you close the page too early? :)
 
This is the data I got from listening all the way through

1st line spoken: "men have sought to make a world of their own conception to draw from their own mind all the material which they (employ)"

Male/Female voice back and forth spelling this out. Spaces were put in where there were pauses. :

mod novas is novasixnovasixnovasixnovasixnova hell is purple

If you look up Hell is Purple on Google, it takes you to purplehell.com, a "one stop shop for riddle tools and resources".

The page provides cipher tools to decrypt messages. So I imagine the answer lies there. Good luck.
 
[citation][nom]mlopinto2k1[/nom]I TOTALLY thought the same thing. First thing that came to mind was Fallout 4...[/citation]
this did remind me of fallout... it was also quite creepy to be honest...

Perhaps this can be decrypted with the Caeser Box Cipher on purplehell.com?

is what you get if you decode it in such a way
 
Just a thought, but remember you have to assign columns, and I already tried 6 😉. But perhaps you have to take everything into account, including the letter they received in their packages. But it could be any cipher on the page really. Some significance to the MOD and the text file they got reading Cryptography Isotope Philanthropy Hydrogen Ember Rebirth ( I know it is how they got Cipher, but perhaps the rest of the letter hold some significance?). Oh well, why the hell am I wasting time on this again?
