Are they planning to make us wait 4infinity?!

I imagine if this does indeed turn out to be ZE3, we'll all look at this in hindsight and laugh, but right now it is becoming frustrating. :/Still nothing
Don't do this to us Aksys D,:
(And if it's not, riot gear for everyone.)
Hey, you don't have jurisdiction in GAF! ...Wait, do you? Be right back, got a lawyer to consult.
While I'm at it I might as well ask him if there's any way for me to murder a bunch of people for a game and get away with it.
In any case, I've gotten to the point where I think our wisest course of action would be to ignore this teaser from now on. Maybe check up on it once a day. No changes? No discussion, and that's it for the day. An update? Then discuss it we shall, and promote them free of charge like we've been doing so far. Maybe that way Aksys will feel compelled to actually do something with this teaser. Extremely shitty tactic, yes, but hey, in a way it's self defense. They fuck with us, we... Um, respond much less to their teaser website.
I'll be so devastated if it isn't Zero Escape III lol
There's a lot pointing to it being ZE3 so at least even though we're upset there's still some hope. We know about Uchi's post on facebook, the teasers code words and Risingstar at least knowing about it on twitter. It's just a matter of when they'll give us a big update on the teaser.

Thats a good point, it could well mean the Infinity series.
But I think that
"be let out into the world in one fell swoop" is a direct reference to VLR's ending
I think the ship has sailed on that bait.

Aksys be all
At all the people still clinging to hope.
Aksys employees probably looking at this thread like "lol".

Despite the current downturn, I still feel good about it being ZE3. But I don't blame people for starting to doubt it either. Pretty much anything and everything that can be dissected has been, so now it's just more waiting.
As I've said before, Aksys has to know what they've created here, and if not, then I don't know what to think other than this was quite the miscalculation. But again, I've still got that hopeful feeling.

That was probably the domain that was available. It's highly unlikely to be a clue.

When did he post that?
A month or two ago.
It's "on sale". Which means that someone already registered, but won't use the domain. When this happens they usually asks a couple thousands bucks(or even more depending who is buying). You should check if the domain is really available on www.who.is

But even then they could have searched for any other name with ".com", don't underestimate the importance of the domain for a site, how many sites have you seen with ".co"?
Imo:
a)the word "4infinity" is so fundamental that they tried hard to get it whatever the domain
b)".co" or "4infinity.co" is fundamental somehow.
It's just a teaser site, why would they spend more on that than necessary? Whatever's being announced there will likely get its own site anyway.

It's a teaser site, a strange domain isn't going to affect their business. I really think you're reading too much into this.

Come on Aksys. Do something. Say something. ANYTHING!
.co looks kind of like the infinity symbol with a bit missing. Maybe that's what they were going for?
Again how many teaser site with anything other than .com and .jp have you seen? The domain is important for a site.
Think about it, it's a teaser site, if they wanted to be cheap and not reveal anything they could have chosen any name with .com exactly like all the other teaser sites, instead they went with 4infinity.co, sorry but unless there's a serious lack of available internet domains this is really suspicious.
I guess it could be the reason.
Most Aksys teaser sites don't even have a proper domain and only 'major' releases they register a domain. They are a small company and any extra cent saved is worth it.
Last games released by Aksys:
Guilty Guear Series(By far the largest IP they handle):
http://www.guiltygear.us/
Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters
http://aksysgames.com/ttgh/
XBlaze:
http://aksysgames.com/xblaze/
Blazblue -> Registered domain
http://blazblueuniverse.com/
Mind Zero
http://www.aksysgames.com/mindzero/
Sorcery Saga
http://www.aksysgames.com/sorcery-saga/
Muramasa Rebirth -> Registered domain
http://muramasarebirth.com/
Zero Escape Virtue's Last Reward -> Registered domain
http://virtueslastreward.com/
You are proving my point
they could ahve used aksysgames.com/4infinityco
in fact the address of the image with numbers is exactly that:

I like this iidea.
Hmm colombia, interesting. Don't know what the relevance that is for ZE though... What some e said about co nearly looking like an infinity sign is an idea too.
Probably already been seen or not that big a deal but was looking at the website using the developer tools, and I saw there are some divs set up for videos, specifically from youtube and vimeo. No actual video link there though I can see, but I suppose this means a video will either be on the site or will be a clue eventually.

I knew what disqus was, thanks anyway.
Well, it at least means that Aksys has much, much more in store for the site than what it currently hosts.

Will today be the day??
Not necessary, when creating a Wordpress website you already have a bunch of plugins preinstalled but not necessary activated. The HTML templates and CSS stylesheets are already written in order to accomodate all of those plugins but they don't have to use them.
The fact they're using Wordpress also doesn't prove anything, for all we know I think the URL 4infinity.co is just pointing to a directory in the Aksys website (proof is the very link where we found the pictures with the few words which were found through the wp-includes directory of 4infinity.co), that and/or it's a subsite of aksysgames.com
Fighting game confirmed.

Just wanted to add that the Aksys homepage itself is built in Wordpress, so it seems more like a choice of preference because they have one or more people who know their way around that particular CMS.

This has to be the most boring teaser ever. Nothing happens!
Unless
Unless
the numbers will change more often and go up and down like the counter in Ever 17 did
Funyarinpa
Member
If this does not change in Friday the only viable explanation is that the counter is not, in fact, a counter.
grim-tales
Member
Good point but if thats the case, why did it say 0303 at first?
Yeah I'm starting to think its not a counter either...
Maybe its monitoring something or relying on something to happen to change?
Or maybe its trying to tell us something by the time it takes between updates?
At this rate though, we just really need more hints, if we didn't get those images, I don't think we'd really have anything

I'm starting to think that, following the Zero Escape speculation, they changed it, to not disappoint people.

Aksys arent really saying anything on their Twitter or Facebook page, I'll be super pissed if it ends up as this:
https://twitter.com/aksysgames
The JP ZE site is still down...
