Today's puzzle has taken a shift in an odd direction. It will definitely take more effort from various people.

Today's image has 3 different sets of characters. One set in each of the Red, Blue, and Green color channels. The numbers are also ALL central in the image, so they will be far easier to discern. The quest now is to find how they relate to form the solution.

Here are the relevant dropboxes provided by Freefall from Bungie forums:

Red Channel output: https://www.dropbox.com/s/g299sie140ghw4o/finalMaskedOutputDay5_R.png

Blue Channel output: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zruwi7mwyinorev/finalMaskedOutputDay5_B.png

Green Channel output: https://www.dropbox.com/s/x20m8m5psklpda8/finalMaskedOutputDay5_G.png

Black and White combined output: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k30mxvnvba14x7v/finalMaskedOutputDay5_BW.png

I'm guessing it's just one really long URL.

Come on Bungie, I don't want to deal with the bullshit of getting info from the 4325342131 different sources they listed to watch, just release everything on Bungie.net. I thought those were just going to be alternative avenues of releasing the same info to reach a wider audience, not to make it harder for people to follow everything :/

That was fast! Having the numbers in the middle of the output image speeds things up considerably.

That's exactly what it sounds like; the Twitter and Facebook stuff is probably just "Follow us so you can see a notification as soon as the ViDoc goes live."

Kind of bummed I didn't get to work on it more. Cest la vie. Good job to whomever it was to get the correct url. At least today wasn't as annoying as yesterdays.

Combining the text we have with the leaked marketing materials gives us a really clear idea of what we are looking at.

I like how the text is getting less vaugue, and slotting more into the idea of humanity exploring their own fall.

Looking at all the solutions stitched together it seems there is only left to completer the image, with 2 days remaining we may get a different kind of puzzle/ problem to solve on Sunday.
EDIT: Then again, there are 7 highlighted intersect points on the map, and it doesn't look like there would be anymore in the missing slice. This might be the complete map and there may be different stuff on Saturday and Sunday ( before and possibly one after the reveal)

I see two sections that could be locations for the next two entries. Circled in red.

My guess: Saturday is the missing slice, Sunday is the full image together. Either that or tomorrow is the full image and Sunday's something else.

And after Bungie's latest Tweet:

I'm 100% sure the next will be "1. This is our Destiny."

Today's puzzle steps it up even further. To help clear up the picture follow this link: http://alphalupi.bungie.net/?day=5 Solve the puzzle (Today's solution is clicking one of the bottom pair of diamonds). That's it. Solving the puzzle lights up one of the nodes (white dots) that you'll see in the picture on the right side after you solve the puzzle. That's all you have to do to help contribute without too much hassle.


Once again, relevant dropboxs to follow, courtesy of Freefall on the Bungie forums:

So far there are no numbers taking shape so this one could be the twist that some of us expected.

Last one guys. Open the top two for today's password. Looks like I'm the only one connected right now.

EDIT: Whoa - just had a massive spike in activity. Take a look.





EDIT2: More.





Once we get the last image, we need to combine it with the previous?

"Note:Sideband frequencies detected across prior sources.]"

Yeah this thing's going crazy right now, note that under the GeoMask: "Sensor relay network online. Signal boost achieved." Looks like Bungie figured we could use some help to get this one done before the actual game reveal :p

The result they're getting over at B.net is pretty interesting.

Still trying to understand the application. We also have all the others up now as well. Were they this way before?

My current thinking is that the symbols in the background for today give an order of the other days from which to form our final url.

This is what I have so far:

/827 932 020 147 ( ) ( ) ( )
(Mon) (Wed) (Fri) (Sun) (Tues) (Thurs) (Sat)
(order for Fri may vary)
