Bioshock 2 Viral Site Launched

Something In The Sea.com

The site currently features a map, with a dot on England. It also says 2/20/67. So it's post-Bioshock 1.

One thing you can see is a picture of the Big Daddy doll from the teaser. You can click it to enlarge it.

There is also a news article, and another sheet of paper. The two aren't really accesible, but I've used my computer's load time to read the news article:

quote News Article
Local Girl Vanishes in Mysterious Attack
Parents Hold Vigil as Guards Wait for Ransom Demands

LISCANNOR, CO. CLARE - Parents of a local girl continue their vigil after a shocking break-in resulting in the apparent kidnapping of their seven year-old daughter.

For generations, the Clune family cottage has been a comforting sight to fisherman in the Liscannor Bay. Visible from the water and the scenic Cliffs of Moher, it served as a local landmark. Two nights ago, its calm was shattered by an attack at 1:45 AM.

Local fisherman Eamoa (?) Clune, 44, and his wife Charlotte (32) were awoken by the sudden shattering of a window in the front room. Moments later, his daughter Maura, age 7, screamed. Mr. Clune rushed to investigate the noise only to notice the unknown attacker racing out of the broken window with "incredible speed". Clune attempted to pursue, but was quickly outrun even though the attacker should have been bampered by the child's weight.

Due to the moonless night, Clune was unable to offer a description of the assailant. He notes that the attacker was thin, above average height, and wore some kind of "red light".

"It seemed to come from his head," said Clune.

Superintendent Brian Kerrigan speculates that the attacker may have worn a miner's helmet. "Based on Mr. Clune's description, it's the only thing that makes sense."

The Clunes have received no word from the kidnapper nor any demand for ransom. "We don't have much," Mrs. Clune wants the kidnapper to know. "But whatever we've got, they can have. We only want Maura back."

Sgt. Michael Whelan encourages anyone with information to come forward and advises that time is of the essence.
This is what I can see from the third sheet.

This is what I can see from the third sheet.

I don't know if it's been changed, because, as Shadow said, the site has apparently been updated and I just read it today, but you can click on that second sheet to enlarge it as well.

Will more be added every few days?

re: Bioshock 2 Viral Site Launched

I'm assuming. I wonder who Jeremiah Lynch is. I'm assuming he'll have some part in the story. It appears he has some information about Big Daddies, as the third note of the second bundle says something about contacting Jeremiah Lynch. The second is a picture of the footprints left, showing that they're strangely shaped.

It's apparent that a Big Daddy came to shore, snatched a girl from her home, then ran away with her. Possibly to Rapture. Apparently Jeremiah Lynch knows the severity of the situation.

Hopefully we'll find out more with the next update, whenever that may be.

Though they believe it was of thin build and Big Daddy's are big and bulky in look. At first i thought it could be a Big Daddy but i believe it is something different, possibly evolved as these attacks took place 7 years after the events in Rapture on the first game. What i do believe is that whatever it is, is searching for new candidates to be Little Sisters. Though the fact that the attack happened in Liscannor, Ireland and that the rest of the map is open on the site leads me to believe Rapture has grown substancially, or was far bigger than we were ever led to believe. I assume the next news will come from Australia to show just how widespread this could be with America or Africa next.

Australia isn't on the map on the viral site.

re: Bioshock 2 Viral Site Launched

Site updated again.

OK, so the first X is in Ireland, dated 2/20/67. An X was added to England dated 3/15, then 3/16 was added to the Netherlands.

Here's the text from the news story that is on the half sheet.

quote
Report of 'Underwater Flare' Suspected Hoax

FELIXSTOWE- Last night, a New York bound shipping vessel radioed a general SOS after spotting a rapidly moving red light underwater 50 miles offshore, described as resembling an "underwater flare". Coast Guard vessels responded, but officials now believe the incident to be a hoax.

No ships were reported missing in the area and no wreckage was discovered. Sonar detected no signs of submersible vessels.
3/15/67 is written on the paper with that text.

A note is written that says

quote
Whatever it is, it's taking our children Daughters.
There are also two more news stories about kidnappings. Here is the last sentence of one, then the notes that were handwritten. The notes are bolded.

quote
Members of the public are not *covered up* action themselves. Good advice.

Not just age. Victims all look similar. WHY?
The news stories also both mention a red glow/red light, one says it was a lean figure, and it says something about "*covered*-cutting tools".

There's also a picture of the ocean, with a red glow.


This site just keeps getting better. It's making me want this game so much, I hate it.

I wonder if they will be updating it every day.

I hope so.

Oooo shaping up nicely.. Thank you Shadow for pointing that out, i thought it showed Australia haha my bad. I think this story could be incredible. I've heard the talks by certain BioShock fans that this game might take place in Atlantis, not sure how that'll work though, i think a far more credible idea is that Rapture was either bigger than first believed or it's not actually in one place and moves aroound the sea floor periodically.

Ahem.

EDIT: The site doesn't seem to be working correctly anymore. I only see the second set of clues and there should be three. The first and third have disappeared.

EDIT 2: Now I can't get past 74% when the site begins to load.

re: Bioshock 2 Viral Site Launched



Here's what's been uncovered from the map.

This doesn't take away any interest from me for the site, because I still want to see all the newspapers and whatnot. But I'm not sure about Atlantis. I kind of just wish it would stay in Rapture, but I'm assuming the developers know what they're doing.
