Hey all, this is my first ever topic, never minding post! So here's a little backdrop to my findings...
I was casually playing Acension on solo, I'd just got the ray gun and galil from the box, so the time came when I was going to pack and punch them, so I went round the landers flying about on them, but on the last lander, I was bored and was looking at the blue screen above the 'call lander' action. It was a map of Acension with symbols (laterly discovered letters from the Russian alphabet) I could remember seeing the symbols engraved into walls beside the acutal physical landers. So I new this meant something, so with some quick research I discovered the symbols.
Ф (meaning F) - The lander near Stamin-up
Б (meaning - The lander beside Speed Cola
Д (meaning D) - The lander beside PHD Flopper
So, I translated the symbols into English and they came out as FDB (in no order) and I mixed and matched the letters trying to get a word of out them the only word (abbreviation)I could get was 'Detection By Fire' or translated from English to Russian and back 'Detection Fire'.
This could reference the how the Pack a Punch machine is activated by fire, which would make sense, because it's a rocket, and what do rockets need to launch? Power what gives power? FIRE! So there's a possibility it references the pack a punch in some way (would of been great if I'd of work'ed this out when Ascension was launched, then I could of been the discoverer of how to pack a punch -.-.) or there's a possibility it references Satan, as Satan supposedly comes from Hell, and Hell is thought to always be on FIRE! (Thanks to SnoozeCruiser)
The next thing I tried was translating it into numbers, since Zombies has a lot of numeral importance. (115,532 etc) but it didn't translate into anything spectacular only 332, 233, 323. BUT if the F had of been an L then it would be 532! It was worth a shot anyway!
Thanks,
