There is also a number on the encom helicopter (do we know what company makes the helicopter?) and there is a time on the clock tower.
Hopefully there will be more hints in the mail.

the numbers look like 48521 (74?) (7H?)
I can't quite make out the last two characters.

Agreed. But that doesn't mean we couldn't be wrong too. Oh, just a suggestion: maybe by entering the numbers and letters in order in ISOlated thinker's hacked Flynn-Encom program site (forgot the site) might give us a picture (or something else) again! Have anyone tried that one yet?

I noticed that one building is labelled "Pixel Towers" and the boat does indeed say Boat 234, not 534.

5 cars say 09
2 cars say 20
1 car says 03

we also have two buildings labelled A-725 and B-725 and one labelled 3-42.

Not sure if this will help, just some observations.


Maybe there is something to the 'hidden' numbers and all... a couple things I noticed.. first, two of the Flynn Lives posters have blue colored disc shapes in the corners, on the building with 'duty' on it, just below, has the lower right disc colored blue, and on the building with the fox image the poster has the lower left disc colored blue.

Also, there are both small grayish circles and squares scattered in the streets. Interesting, again not sure if it means anything... yet.

Sorry if someone already mentioned these and I missed it.


I think those small grayish circles/squares are manhole covers and electrical panels/access panels.

PS: A lot of the 09/20 cars are duplicates, not unique cars with the same numbers.

What about the telephone company

the giant cell phone and telephone booths and everywhere a telephone is seen has the same company name or logo on it, cant quite discern what it is though, perhaps it is backwards like the boat.

Go for it! There HAS to be SOMETHING we're missing!

Holy shit, I think I found something that could help us! Look at the signs that say "ARCADE AID VIDEO GAMES" and "BURGERS". The parts in the middle that spell "ADE A O GAM" and "RGE" are highlighted in a different color than the rest of the signs. Maybe they spell out something!

That would be because they are at a different angle. Confused

I think they are highlighted that way because of the lighting to give it a wrap around effect.

BUT...

If you look at the Encom OP Tron event, there is a building to the left where there is a guy for breakout, I think we are supposed to climb that roof and break through a brick wall. Meet you guys there.

"Do you think we can BREAK THROUGH THIS WALL, bit?"

Looking at this from another angle...

Some operatives were provided phones, right? What if the people with phones are supposed to make calls, rather than receive them?

Maybe the numbers hidden in the arcade aid poster are phone numbers?

One other random thought, maybe the green dots of the completed puzzles completes a picture?

I've posted this in the Arcade Aid challenge thread but I figured I'd post it here too just in case it happens to mean anything. There's more grasping for straws in this thread and that's kind of what I'm doing (heh)

Looking from the poster to the game, the two towers near the grid are lacking numbers in the poster that they had in the game. Like so:



Any ideas? I've tried everything and am not getting anything out of it. I keep thinking it might just be for ascetic purposes but... there's got to be a clue somewhere and this is the only difference I've noticed so far

Um, isn't Trump tower #B, 725 5th Ave in NY?
