OMG! FINALLY!!! I BEAT THE FORGE! *FWUMP*
Finally
EVERY TIME I HEAR ANA-1 SAY I AM NOT WELCOME, I PULL A SHIRO-4 AND SAY: ‘I BEG TO DIFFER!’
OKAY, SO HERE’S A QUICK CLIP OF WHAT I DID THE FIRST TIME THAT SEEMED TO UNLOCK THE HAND LOCK FOR THE MYSTERIOUS BOX. LIKE THE FIRST FORGE IGNITION IN THE EDZ, THE DRONE WILL APPEAR BETWEEN THE FIRST AND SECOND WAVE. SO, RIGHT AFTER THE FIRST 20 IGNITION CHARGES ARE DONE, HEAD TO THE GIANT SHIP PIECE LIKE I DID IN THE VIDEO AND TURN LEFT AND YOU SHOULD SEE IT. NOW, WHAT I DON’T KNOW IS IF I ACCIDENTALLY DID SOMETHING AFTER THAT THAT WAS A SECOND PART OR NOT. I JUST KNOW I SHOT THE DRONE THEN, LATER, I SAW THE HAND LOCK WAS CHECKED IN THE BOX. SO, HERE’S HOPING THIS DOES SOMETHING TO HELP YOU ALL. ALSO, I’M GETTING THE SENSE THAT, IF ONE LOCK WAS OPENED IN THE FIRST FORGE, AND THIS ONE WAS OPENED IN THE SECOND, THEN THE OTHER TWO WILL BE IN TWO MORE IGNITION SITES THAT ARE REVEALED AS YOU GAIN ACCESS TO THEM. YOU JUST NEED TO FIND WHERE THE DRONES ARE AND SHOOT THEM. IF ANYONE ELSE HAPPENS TO LEARN SOMETHING MORE ABOUT THIS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO WE CAN PASS INFO ON TO OTHER PLAYERS! GOOD LUCK, EVERYONE!
MYSTERIOUS BOX OPENED!
My hands are damn sore now. Still have more things to do before I get the end reward but at least I got all the keys and got it opened. Time for a break and to do some writing!
HAND LOCK MYSTERIOUS BOX
FOR ALL OF YOU PLAYING THE BLACK ARMORY, AND WHO HAVE THE MYSTERIOUS BOX, I THINK I FIGURED OUT THE HAND LOCK. THE FIRST LOCK, THE FISHHOOK, IS LOCATED IN THE FIRST FORGE IN THE EDZ. THERE ARE VIDS OF IT ON YOUTUBE ON HOW TO GET IT DURING A FORGE MISSION. THE HAND ONE, I THINK I STUMBLED ON BY ACCIDENT TODAY. I WAS PLAYING THE GOFANNON FORGE ON NESSUS AND THERE’S A BACK CORNER WHERE MORE OF THOSE SHIELD DROIDS APPEAR. I JUST SAW IT SO I SHOT AT IT AND NOW THE HAND LOCK IS OPEN. I’M NOT SURE IF IT TRIGGERED SOMETHING ELSE THAT I BY CHANGE DID, BUT IT’S NOW UNLOCKED FOR ME. I’M GOING TO GIVE IT ANOTHER TRY HERE AND RECORD IT (HOPEFULLY I’LL FIND IT AGAIN) AND POST IT SO YOU ALL CAN SEE IT.
5 more minutes and Black Armory will be installed and I’m jumping in! Why, no. I have not slept in the last almost 24 hours and I don’t care. Bring on the coffee and LET’S DO THIS!
Hey again! Long time no post! I’ve been very busy with school and also haven’t had a show in a while. It felt great to get back at it.
This time, we have a new band! After seeing my photos from a show they played at of Look Out Loretta, Sam, from Atlantic Wasteland hit me up and asked me to come shoot their next show! Prior to the show, we did a little promo shoot (which once they use them, I’ll include here).
The show was at Black Forge Coffee House (whose chai I reviewed here) located on thee outskirts of the South Side. Wild venue, let me tell ya. Not very big though, but considering it’s a coffee shop, it’s not shocking. The stage was smaller, so with 5 band members, Sam (vocals/guitar) and Ausinette (vocals) played from the floor. Needless to say, it was an interesting show.
Atlantic Wasteland, a local alternative/emo/pop-punk band, are a super fun band to watch. They would have been easier to photograph had it been a bigger venue with more room, lol. Ausinette is crazy. I normally shoot shows and use auto focus because it’s easier, but since she was all over the place, my camera couldn’t keep up with her so I had to focus it manually, haha. They get so into the music and it’s awesome. They did a bunch of original songs but also did a cover of The 1975’s ‘Robbers’ which the crowd was psyched about. The last song of their set was an original song called, ‘Pittsburgh’ which I found to be interesting. There’s a voiceover that was very solemn and really set the mood for the song and performance. Overall, they’re very passionate about the music they play and really involve the crowd whenever they can…. especially Ausinette. She interacts with the crowd and jumps around and it’s just crazy and fun. (She also had an Americano and was hyped on espresso and it was hilarious)
Go check them out on your go-to music platform, if you’re the emo/pop-punk type!
