Well I'm going with something like a movie poster, or Deus Ex game case, or some sort of reference to either a movie or Deus Ex not yet mentioned in general game play.

I doubt it would be as simple as that. For a start, it's not 'fucking ridiculously hidden', and secondly something like a DX game case makes sense within the atmosphere of the game, seeing as all the characters are DX fans.

Why wouldn't DX fans hide something DX-ish in a DX like game? :lol:

- the meta-events
- any reference to TNM, e.g. the 'TNM released!' article on all the newspapers, the OTP symbol on the keyboards, the TNM OST CD etc
- references to random characters, e.g. Smike/Klystron Project in ABI
- hidden conversations, e.g. 'summon jonas'
Nahh .. To be this hidden, i dont think its any of those things xD
Actually, the OST CD and OTP symbol was quite a good idea though :P

Damn it. I'ma reinstall TNM Later Even though i'm suppose to be studying for exams coming up in a few months :lol:
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

The more you look for it, the more disappointed you will be when you eventually find it.

Well I'm stumped. I searched through the editor, and found lots of little secrets which I'd never seen before, but none of them were particularly impressive.
Either I (or some someone else) have already found the secret, but just not realised it, or it will never be found (at least not for a while, and by accident).

I would like to ask one question - when in the game can you find it? e.g. day 1, 2, onwards etc

In the weeks leading up to TNM's one year anniversary we should totally be given clues.

Those who are spending their time looking for this secret, or secrets in general, should collect everything they do find into one place. Some kind of catalog of secrets.

Or something.

Am I making sense?

Great idea Chris, although I have no idea what to name it. The Discovery Channel? lol.

I did however find one 'secret' I'd never found before - in Goat City, there's a rock you can frob which leads to some money and weapon mods on day 1, and some ammo on day 2.
Ooooh... which rock? Don't know this one myself after all (talking about that, gotta add the dead girl on the roof in downtown to the walkthrough too).
It might therefore be a good idea to go to conedit and look for all of Narcissus' conversations?
I already looked at each line of the missionscripts and each conEdit conversation for my 1.0.4+, and it's not there. That's why I suggested searching the maps, that's their only hiding spot! :P
(Although I do wonder where stuff like the "bullseye award" are used for)

There's a TNM soundtrack in the DJ booth at the PartyZone, but don't think it's that (or that absurd), for Jonas talking about it as he has...

I'm wondering if this might be something that can't be found by just looking through the code or for secret passages in the editor.
Like maybe a message hidden cleverly in the terrain. That can only be seen in-game at a certain angle or something.
I find it hilarious that even with access to the source code and SDK that there is still one secret no one can find yet. :)

Maybe the secret doesn't even exist. Maybe it's an elaborate ruse designed to get us to play the game over and over and over again until we can recite every line of dialogue from all possible affiliations and have killed every character with every means available.

:P :mrgreen:
And I hope, and I dream, and I pray
That sometime we'll find a way

Hm I didn't realise the rock in Goat City hadn't been discovered. Maybe it was two unfound secrets then :P

Hah!

...

I have no idea. What the hell...?

I wonder if I just forgot what it's for, if it was never implemented, or if this is something one of the programmers threw in without telling me.

Well it's a big game, there's lots of virtual real-estate to hide things in ;)

Just ran through Goat City and didn't find a rock, let stand a frobabble one. This calls for drastic measures! *loads up the editor*
EDIT: Mission successful. 30 Skill Points awarded :D.

Well, it's M20 only. I thought it was shooting a bullseye at Raving's, but nothing with my crossbow (then again, if that was it why only mission 20)?
We've got coordinates... only 20 or so maps to cross-reference them with ;P (where it that I knew how to search for coordinates in the editor).
