Potato Alternate Reality Game

[Darkwave]

I've got the potato achievement people , KF-HeresyBeta3 , Fake players mutator ( Or something that made more zeds show up) and an hour of commiting suicide for getting new Xbow's.
After all it seems that there is a code ( Didn't took a screenshot of it , I didn't bought the potato) but as soon as my friend gives me the link of the screenshot , I'll post it here.
PS : Another achievement for the collection

we need to find out what the killing floor clues mean

Uh, what's the 70000 euro Potato thing? I just started playing after buying the Potato sack.

First post:

Anyone else notice that there is a new achievement, called "Achievement132" on the Killing Floor Achievements page?

Click here and scroll all the way down:
http://steamcommunity.com/stats/Kill.../achievements/

I'm thinking it's an achievement that you unlock after unlocking all 132 other achievements. I might be wrong though

Me and a buddy just got the achievement.

potato is apparently not the password.

Password...

Password...

Has anyone tried the string of 16 consonants associated with Killing Floor from the ARG? They pulled them from the bio of 'Mr Foster'

Just to confirm, using whitelisted mutators does not interfere with buying the potato does it?

Okay, lets get ourselves into gear; we are lagging far behind, and there is much to be gained if we can manage it in time. We've been making progress at a snails pace, totally ignoring the greater ARG or greater ARG community. I smell some prizes to be won, either if the puzzle is completed, or if it is completed within some time, and we know rom experience that if TWI says "we wont do it unless you do it in X time"...they mean it. They have a history of brutally holding up their word, so we shouldn't just sort of forget this all.

What motivated me? Wilsons not so much dissing or mocking of us, but something of the sort in the Potato blog [URL]http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=51669[/URL]
where he gives us some tips.

For example: the greater ARG doesn't even know we've started this all. Let contact them and harness their support. This is also valuable, as other glyphs similar to our acheivs have appeared in other games. This could be the key. http://valvearg.com/wiki/Valve_ARG_Wiki

Also, some screenshots of the password menu would be appreciated some people still don't believe it exists. Remember, TWI also likes to have cheese at the end of the maze, so I don't think this is all in vain.

Good idea Timur. Once you've unlocked the potato, if you copy the url from your steam browser, paste it into a notepad and save the file, after you close KF, you can simply open your regular web browser, go to steams main web site, login, then paste that url into your browser and access your login screen again. Here's a printscreen of mine where I did this in Google Chrome http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/55/printscreenvu.jpg

Edit: also each person has their own URL for this, so you can't copy mine and get to it. It has a way of checking if you've rightly earned the potato.

anyone know if the wiki has found this? I mean, there are quite a few people there, and they have been peicin stuff together well so far.

In the meantime, I'll likely be trying to figure it out myself. TWI is making a reputation for itself as a very crafty riddler, but we've solved them before, and if we work on it together, we'll manage it now

And has anyone figured out what to put into the AudioTune thing? The symbol is on our achievement so I'm curious if thats something.

 

[Faneca]

Each person get's its own URL, that is voided to other people.
1 URL per person that is and they are all different and blocked for outsiders.

I'm gonna try and get the Potato on solo tomorow again.
Tried 3 times today and failed miserable all of them on Wave 4 when I was just 10k

 

[timur]

does the faked players mut cancel out potato gainage? It apparently refused to buy it with me....but I may have done something wrong.

 

[Daimao]

The password is failed experiments.
When you login, KF gets an update of 12,7 mb
No idea what changed, it contains "dlc"

so what happens when you enter "failed expirements"?

Anything? I think it would be a new puzzle, or a message perhaps (or ur just speculating).

Also, I dont see an update

 

[FSUBoo]

Once you enter the password, KF downloads an update through steam. If you go to your killing floor folder there is a filed called Science guy or something like that. Change the file extension to RAR and it becomes a rar with 4 passworded items in it. Yet another password to crack.

hmmmm....I want to tackle this then. I think we should begin a forum wide Potato-giving program, in order to have maximum people working on this; after all, getting the tuber requires a team effort, and we need as many as we can for this venture

(unless fakes players DOES work after all)

 

[Daimao]

Password is carnivore

 

[outofrealman]

Our team finally get $70000 and buy the potato, achievement got. Password entred. Kf auto-downloaded something. Then I exit game, that page cannot be accessed anymore........ what can I do? Use another 3 hours to get $70000?

Please no......
