Massive published cryptic tweets and codes about The Division – what does it mean? Apparently, a big announcement is coming!
Such a thing has not happened in The Division before: The developers at Massive are announcing something new at this hour and giving the community hints about what it could be. At least we suspect that. Because the tweets that the official Twitter channel is currently publishing are extremely cryptic.
It is likely that they are several teasers for Update 1.8, of which hardly anything is known so far. We summarize all the previous information about this “puzzle”.
The Rioters are certainly involved
The first strange tweet appeared yesterday evening, on August 25. Massive published an image (see our title image) with the heading: “We had to deal with our own business.” What the developers wanted to convey to the community with this was unclear to anyone. It was discussed on reddit. To no avail.
These hints became more interesting:
- The Twitter channel of The Division changed its profile picture:
This is undoubtedly the logo of the Rioters – these represent, along with the Cleaners, the Rikers, and the LMB, the fourth enemy faction in The Division. Here is an image with the faction symbols:
- On the other hand, Massive published various codes. So far, these are: 1164-1353/888-1874 and 898-2876/967-2517. These may indeed be coordinates in the game. However, they do not lead to specific locations. Instead, there is another idea in the reddit forum: When you enter these numbers in Google Maps, locations are indicated near Central Park, such as “1164 Central Park South, New York City, New York, USA” or “1874 Central Park West, New York City, New York, USA”. Perhaps these numbers are hints that there will be a map expansion in Central Park. However, this can only be speculated about.
Further tweets from The Division:
- “We had to hurry like rats to grab what we could, as long as we could.”
- “We were outgunned, the embodiment of loosely organized chaos.” This image was published:
The community developer Hamish Bode shared these tweets and always wrote a question mark above them. When asked if Bode himself didn’t know what it was about, he merely replied with a winking smiley.
In short: A bigger announcement is coming. How long this puzzle game will last, we will see.
What do you think? Are these teasers for 1.8 or even for The Division 2? What could be behind the codes?
Shortly after the launch of The Division in spring 2016, leaks appeared that an expansion could take place in Central Park.
