At some point I started to get bombarded by what I assume is mortar fire (HE type i think). Some of the terrain in front of me got blown up. I might be crazy but I’m almost certain I saw a teddy bear hovering in front of me for approximately 2-4 seconds, however it was gone quite quickly again due to the amount of explosions around me. I told my teammates which in turn called me crazy. I want what you’re smoking… 😉 ---

I’ve been listening to the different Morse code messages myself in game and I’ve noticed that if you walk away from the M-Com station after the code is done playing and then walk back up to it a different messaged is relayed than before. Is this something that is already known? I see many videos only showing one code for each map. ---

If you have a computer you can probably plug a usb flash drive into your PS4 and put the photos onto that, then onto your computer. I don’t know for sure, I’ve never gotten photos off my PS4.

There are probably multiple translations needed for a single message. In the case of the Zimmermann telegram, it was coded in multiple languages. There could also be several encryption techniques being combined. Some of the Morse code doesn’t match any examples I can find. Some are obviously ADFGVX, a German cipher used at the time, and others seem to be Alberti-Vigenere ciphers, used by the French and Italians. The remaining seem to be keys to ciphers. I don’t think DICE has created a new cipher. ---

In the history of cryptanalysis, Room 40, also known as 40 O.B. (Old Building) (latterly NID25) was the section in the British Admiralty most identified with the British cryptanalysis effort during the First World War. The basis of Room 40 operations evolved around a German naval codebook, the _ **Signalbuch der Kaiserlichen Marine** _(SKM), and around maps (_ **containing coded squares** _). The British also obtained the Imperial German Navy’s _ **Handelsschiffsverkehrsbuch** _ (HVB), a codebook used by German naval warships, merchantmen, naval zeppelins and U-Boats, as well as the _ **German Diplomatic Code Book, Code No. 13040** _. ---

good mornin’ y’all back again after a evening of playing and semi-searching for things. with all the possibilities on morse codes and ‘‘hints(?)’’ from around the maps, i suggest we focus on searching the maps for other things aswell, might be anything so i have no idea what we have to look for but still, scribblings on walls, documents lying around on tables, markings on boxes and crates etc. ---

and it might darned well be that there are multiple ‘‘puzzles’’ to solve, back in BF4 we had the tiny chinese statues hidden around the map but also hints towards the megalodon and some dude’s name i cant recall which showed up on lockers and websites Dice set out for us. Is there any Dice emp, mod or gamemod around who can tell us if there actualy IS a hidden easter egg sequence we have to look for? since all the information we have no is not realy giving us any insight to something actualy being out there. @JackFrags have you perhaps heard or seen anything from a gamemod,admin (etc) saying there actualy ARE easter eggs we are now looking for? ---

THE LETTER TO THE LEFT (OR SYMBOLS) INDICATES UNIT DESIGNATION. THAT TO THE RIGHT, THE DESIGNATION OF THE PARENT UNIT WHICH IT BELONGS TO.

So all of this kind of leads to Fao Fortress. I tried looking for a Code-Book (regarding the “Room 40” theory) on the Dreadnought ship (which is the only object with the dazzle camo → leads back to our painting) but I was unable to do so because it’s out of territory. EDIT: Isn’t it possible to drive the ship into the playable area? ---

i think we have some good leads now people. Paintings with stormy waters, things refering to the battleship, the Fao Fortress near the sea. headphones being found across maps who give morse codes. back in the day they communicated from ship to ship with light signals (still happens to this day in the navy) they use morse in the form of light flashings. something tells me we have to find something in/around the Fao Fortress or near its waters also, the ship is mentioned as a leviathan, read early in this thread that a leviathan is a mythical creature, just like the megalodon is. _Update about Leviathan_ [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leviathan) the battle for Fao Fortress takes place in Al Faw Peninsula in Iraq (Real Location from historical View) and the wiki page also includes this: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religions\_of\_the\_ancient\_Near\_East](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religions_of_the_ancient_Near_East) You all remember this? [http://www.pcgamesn.com/battlefield-4/the-battlefield-4-kraken-is-dead-paracel-storm-easter-egg-is-no-more](http://www.pcgamesn.com/battlefield-4/the-battlefield-4-kraken-is-dead-paracel-storm-easter-egg-is-no-more) where people would found a map of paracel storm which looks like a giant squid/kraken/leviathan thing and turned out to be nothing? well guess what kind of hints we are seeing in BF1 right now about the stuff i posted above this? thats right! Krakens! so it might be very well we are hunting a leviathan this time (Seeing Iraq is seen as ‘‘east’’ back in WW1) and we are getting all kinds of hints refering to things relating to leviathan like things. it HAS to do something with the waters around Fao Fortress, or atleast we van find new hints that will lead us in a better direction. People already hearing megalodon like sounds in the water of Fao Fortress when crashing their airplanes. my money’s on a leviathan like creature we are going to find. Keep it up people! we are doing a hell of a job here, we might just have this stuff solved very soon!
