 		Deus Ex: HR
This code has appeared in the ingame news:

Code:
okM8-+D24Dui?IMh$Mzvm14BSqe7;G.I6=u74b?mkh-45Ki60d+98XBpCku7


It looks like MD5 (ARP) to me, but I can't figure it out. It appeared when they said an announcement was to be made. Any ideas?

Encrypted MD5 - There is a new code now :

Code:
‎5 - / ! f / f q / x c / q y / d 3 / ? x /t $ / l #


This looks more crackable - I assume '5' is a key to decode the pairs of characters.

 		@DavidAnfossi tweeted this - date format, maybe?

Well here's a hint to help you to crack the #DXHR #deusex code: r 5 / i e / y p


EDIT: a couple hours later @sdastous tweeted this:

 		The Deus Ex Facebook page had this to say:
Quote:
Seriously, what's with the moonman language stuff?
b o / z v / 3 n / 4 h / 9 b / $ = / = 8 / s t / - 9, I mean come on.


Edit: Added Facebook status link and changed PNG to jpg

Here are screenies of the code found in the thread Kaltern had linked:

 		The common theme in all of the codes bar the first one is pairs of characters separated by a "/" - I reckon each pair is a character, but I've no idea how to go about cracking it.

EDIT: yet ANOTHER code from one of the devs @Jeffachoo:

Quote:
7 2 / m 1 / . 4


So now we have:

Code:
Code 1:
okM8-+D24Dui?IMh$Mzvm14BSqe7;G.I6=u74b?mkh-45Ki60d+98XBpCku7

Code 2:
5 - / ! f / f q / x c / q y / d 3 / ? x /t $ / 1 #

Code 3:
r 5 / i e / y p

Code 4:
a d / u k / w 0

Code 5:
7 2 / m 1 / . 4

 		Could the later codes be keys to the first one? ie 72/m1/.4 means 7=2, m=1, .=4 ?

Update: scratch that, tried it and it didnt make sense. in any case, the code would be incomplete.

 		Here is the full recap of how that puzzle was solved:

http://deusex.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:29th_August_Announcement_ARG

It looks like this is finished. There could certainly be more to it, but right now it doesn't look like it.

There's more, and it's really sneaky how they hide it!

So, when you go to 13311tower.com, notice the loading reticule before the image pops up. Once the image pops up, there is some sort of transparent autoselect that only allows you to see a tiny piece of the site's source code.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
HOWEVER: if you beat it to the punch, right click in firefox and check source code BEFORE the image pops up...

http://cdn2.netops.eidosinteractive.com/files/deusex/BdW9RxMRr/13311tower.wav -- morse code!

also, a comment tag at the bottom! EDIT: that totally just doesn't want to display right here...

it also looks like they're using something called the Open Graph Protocol to link the page with facebook....
