Unless stuff starts getting really weird at this research station really quickly...It might be the StarCraft 2 moba that they claimed to be working on a while ago. I think it was called StarCraft II - Blizzard All-Stars? | ||

A long shot is that it relates to project "Titan". According to "leaked" information I read a while ago that probably can't be trusted, Blizzard is marketing "Titan" as a new IP but according to this data it's only a spinoff from an existing franchise. So I guess... Starcraft spinoff themed MMO? Hah sounds stupid, but i'm out of ideas. Could just be some mobile phone game or application as well. | ||

Attempt to pay attention a little more to see if anything stands out in relation to this. I replayed that mission recently. None of this is ringing any bells. | ||

So I broke down all the main characters based on twitter and a short summary of whats up so far that I can see in the main storyline as it were. As of now, experiments are starting and the scientific crew is newly arrived. So is the maintenance crew. Branamoor has been at the facility for a couple days alongside Lee Treicher before arrival. More info gathered from twitter here: Dr. Helek Branamoor:Director. Access level: Omega Major Lee Treicher: Head of Security Access level: Gamma. Monitoring ALL blackstone communications. Adjutant 33-27: older unit. "beat up" according to branamoor. Request for new adjutant unit: Denied. So far: One crew died to one escaped Zergling. Current crew is a replacement one. Transport vessel "sparrowhawk" leaves Gate 3 Feb 1st Transport vessel "beluga" arrives gate 2 Feb 1st -- new maintenance crew online Beluga leaves shortly after 3 more transports arrive: Brook's Folly, Sunset, and Undertow 2 Dr. Daniel Rothfuss: Astrophysicist: Access level Beta Dr. Leah A. Martine: Xenobiologist: Access level Beta Dr. Vera Langridge: Xenobotanist: Access level Gamma. Conducting experiments on something found on the planet Vygoire. Dr. Talise Cogan: Xenobiologist: Access level Beta Dr. Warren G Held: Xenobiologist, Senior Protoss Specialist: Access level Beta. Has some form of condition that prevents him from lifting heavy knives. His usual kinfe set made by Axiom Corp is no longer in production. Dr. Redell Quinton: Chief Engineer: Access level Beta. Likes blackstone, has lots of spare parts to make a viking. Dr. Talen Ayers: Xenobiologist, Senior Zerg Specialist: Access level Beta. Decided he finds red "an interesting fellow". Dr. Pamela G. Foster: Chemical Engineer, Explosives Expert: Access level Beta Dr. Pamela Foster: having datapad issues "unauthorized user" messages. Dr. Branamoor: States that datapads are for comparing data and findings, not socialising Dr. Quinton: works in an engineering bay of some sort makes sense he is an engineer. -- Adjutant: security breach detected -- This is when we started playing the game and accessed the website. Implies the game can move along based on how far we get with it to a certain extent. Treicher is scanning lines, freezing connections made recently | ||

 Note the very early messages of the Adjutant twitter account (from Jan 24). It logs what ships arrived and left at what dock. Also, apparently, there was an earlier accident killing the previous maintenance crew. Supposedly a "single zergling" did it. https://twitter.com/Adjutant3327 | ||

But they do have a flash player layout that loads nothing so there will be flash videos incorporated here :D | ||
