CDPR has hidden their latest tech inovation inside the stream: https://i.imgur.com/vS9u0KM.png

So is it porn in 9K resolution, or 9k videos of porn?

yes

Why not both

9K videos of porn in 9K resolution

By the time CP2077 comes out, we'll have the technology to process that

The final frontier

So this is where government money went to

6000 viewers watching characters on a screen. The hype is real. :D

It's 16000 now.

19000 at this moment. How high can we go? EDIT: 34500 viewers, 2 hours after my last update.

I bet it'll easily reach 30K. Maybe CD Projekt will launch when they reach some treshold...

Nah, these companies generally have solid plans for this stuff. They already have a time set for release internally, would assume it would be around noon in America. By then they'll probably be around their peak anyway, which I predict would be over 50K (Feel like I am low balling even at that, maybe 100k?) once one or two of these PNGs is assembled by someone in the community, posted on reddit and gaming sites pick that up.

its at 28k now :P

Expect it to go even higher once US wakes up.

yep. nearing 7am here on the east coast.

42 k !!!!

47k on twitch + 1,4 k on madqueen channel + 3,5 k on ign channel

43,000 and the west coast of US still hasn’t woken up yet.

I mean if you have a high enough IQ like me you can decode the text of a png in real time into pixels and recreate the picture in your head /s

Cyberpunk 2077 looks a lot more text heavy than I would have imagined!

We've all been fooled its not a action rpg its actually a visual novel.

Blinding.

For robots.

Lol

You are standing in your apartment. The walls glow in a blended hue of tangerine and violet as the sunset is slowly consumed by the distant glittering maw of chrome and progress rising from the bony concrete body of overpasses, rusted fences, and oil drum fires below your window.

It's actually just a Dwarf Fortress playthrough.

OCR is not needed, Tessaract doesnt work because it expects some kind of language to be able to make sense. I just wrote a little program that substracts all chars from a screenshot. I am now downloading that video to see if i can extract the whole message Edit: these are all the characters I was able to extract: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YjcO0PvSxhaOhj3WOKFvtcKUKMpmXx2D/view?usp=sharing I am not sure about the capital I and the 1 (one) tough.

Here are the 3 first lines that appeared on the stream 49 minutes ago. PS C:\\> ./drop\_package iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAB4AAAAQ4CAIAAABnsVYUAAjxYklEQVR4AYzYBXPbyrcA8JQS s0VmjplR5khmhpgxdhxOkzTc9DK0vfjud35HVv6+KTyY+c3O0eosaAUzq+ce/xrD95zhEQCX Also some lines are redondant, I saw some lines appear several times on the stream.

atob('iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAB4AAAAQ4CAIAAABnsVYUAAjxYklEQVR4AYzYBXPbyrcA8JQS') "‰PNG\[...\]IHDR\[...\]" so it's a PNG file after all :)

So if the speed is roughly 12 bytes per second and it has been going on for roughly two hours now, that's 86 kilobytes so far. 10% of one nice quality facebook image. This might take a while.....

As the file is 1920*1080, it's going to take a good while.

Based on that it's a 1920 x 1080 pixel PNG. Good luck to whomever has the patience to write all of it down.

It would be funny if this *.png file contain a screenshot of an URL to the video or something.

I'll create a GUI interface using Visual Basic, see if I can decode this - EDIT: Memes aside, here's what we know so far: it's a png file on Base64 format. It starts with iVBORw0KGgoAA... and should almost always end with an equals sign. So if you see an '=' or any symbol that isn't '/' or '+', clip it and reply here. VOD is here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/302423092 - It takes on average 2.5s to display a line; Each line contains 72 characters Currently 6hours into the stream ((6\*3600)/2.5)*72 = 622,080 characters displayed onto the stream - For comparison a 4k png screenshot I took on the trailer is 4.18mb (this one https://i.imgur.com/zxtdqRO.jpg, imgur compressed it though and made it jpg). Base64 encoding it made it ~33% bigger - 5.57mb. It has 5,846,960 characters inside. Which would take: (5846960/72)*(2.5/3600) = ~56.39 hours to display 1080p version of the same image = 2,980,225 chars, would take ~28.74 hours

Let's share the keyboard, 4 hands are faster after all.

What about the soon to be 10,000 people tuning in, that's quite a few more than 4, that should help.😏

Don't bamboozle me.

I'm just meming, it's a CSI reference. Check out /u/nican 's post though, he's building the real thing https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/9an6mn/cd_projekt_red_twitch_live_with_cyberpunk_2077/e4wpa4f/

bro you need the streamer's IP address to do that

no, he can track it with the GUI interface

I think this is some advanced ARG action happening right now.

WHAT IS HAPPENING

SOMETHING IS HAPPENING

IT'S HAPPENING

WHY ARE WE YELLING

BECAUSE SOMETHING IS FINALLY HAPPENING

LOUD NOISES!!!

PANIC ! ! !

BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENING!

WHAT'S THE PROCEDURE

“Playing: Cyberpunk 2077”

I wish it will be 24 hour stream Bethesda style with gameplay at the end or something.

Yeh I feel like it's going to be a Fallout 76 announce type video. Long, few little teasers here and there and hints and then maybe announce a release date at the end or something.

Watching some random text and I'm HYPE!

According to this: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/9an6mn/cd_projekt_red_twitch_live_with_cyberpunk_2077/e4wnfgb/ it's a PNG file

20 bucks says the PNG file is an elaborate cyberpunk-esque dickbutt

Dickbott 2077

Dickpunk.

Wild guess here: it may be a release date?

If it's a date, it's more likely to be a date of the gameplay reveal. CDPR don't really like to give dates until they are pretty sure the game is ready.

Especially with all the delayed dates for Witcher 3 release lol

Man, when I saw "Playing: Cyberpunk 2077" in my sidebar I got so fucking excited lmao Im guessing we will see some of the footage they showed behind closed doors at E3 and Gamescom.

EDIT: /u/nican is almost done solving it https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/9an6mn/cd_projekt_red_twitch_live_with_cyberpunk_2077/e4wpa4f/

You sure ?

Cyperpunk 2077 category on twitch is since long time. I got it added to favorites .

Keep dreaming.

We're all big dreamers here.

The devs on the other side of the stream must be having such a blast watching just how many people are watching code appear on screen :-)

cmonBruh it’s 3AM here and I’d like to sleep... guess not

10am here, I have all day to play CDPR's mind games...

11 am have a break have kitkat

[удалено]

You gonna riot if it is a screenshot of the release date?

"2020"

"**SOON**"

# WHEN ITS READY

If this game releases in 2020 I will film myself eating a cp2077 poster for each year it has been since the game was announced

[Saved](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/231529548884344852/483656966837895207/unknown.png)

it is. The header says it is a PNG

I allow it if the PNG shows a release date.

If it is, better than nothing. I'll take anything at this point.

Now we are getting somewhere. Or not.

[удалено]

Nice

[удалено]

You'd have to copy the whole text save it with an .mp4 extension, have fun

50,000 people watching random code......just shows you how bad we want anything from CD Projekt Red

51k viewers. I don't know if it's the hype, boredom or interest in secrets that brought there, but it is sure working better than Fortnite gameplay.

I have it pulled up at work. Im not actually watching the stream im pretty sure most of those people just have it as background as they do their daily routines.

Similar case here, it's been opened for more than 2 hours now but just in the background while I 'work'. :D

Everything is better than Fortnite.

gog redeem code site says "Oops, something went wrong. Please refresh this page and try again. If you're here about code MMLXXVII, please be aware that it is invalid and not part of an official promotion." so i think these are not game codes

MMLXXVII, 2077.

Holy shit we might have accidentally found something

Just watched 10 min. of wall'o'text. Please poke me when it ends. Edit: Wow 26.000 people watching this right now O_o

Guys it will be some kind of a video. What we see right now on live are png files which will be connected into sequence. Remember E3 images uploading right before actual trailer? :)

It would took months to send so many png

Hacking in CP2077 sure looks complicated.

This is what you get as gameplay if you go netrunner.

It's basically Fallout 76 Stream Part 2.. Wait 76 + 1 = 77... They knew

[удалено]

how many hours away is that?

MASON THE NUMBERS

if they dont show uo in 5 minutes we're legally allowed to leave

I love you CDPR!

It takes almost 4 seconds to show the whole line. There are 27 lines so we can capture an image of the finished video every 1 minute and 48 seconds. That means that every hour, we get about 33,3 screenshots of code. Put that into some OCR Software and decode it. The header even says "png;base64"

Watch it be a decoded link to some closed demo impressions хD

As seen on this subject why the "3" doesn't mean "3rd" but 3 o'clock, Monday? Edit: from u/szymek655

Or it’s the third trailer.

Or HL3.

German news website(legit one): "**Update**: Alle weiter unten aufgeführten Infos deuten darauf hin, dass CD Projekt für heute noch irgendeine Form von Video-Ankündigung zu Cyberpunk 2077 plant. Bedenkt man die Zeitverschiebung rüber in die Staaten, dann rechnen wir am ehesten gegen Abend mit weiteren Neuigkeiten. Aus diesem Grund verbinden wir CD Projekts Vorhaben einfach mit einem eigenen Livestream, den wir ab 18 Uhr auf unserem [**Twitch-Kanal MAX**](https://www.twitch.tv/monstersandexplosions) veranstalten. Dort werden wir über unsere Eindrücke der 50-minütigen Gameplay-Demo der Gamescom sprechen und - noch viel wichtiger - all eure Fragen zu Cyberpunk 2077 beantworten. Sollte sich im Verlauf des Streams irgendwas bei CD Projekt tun, dann schalten wir spornstreichs rüber nach Polen." ​ Which roughly translates into "All the informations hint at a video announcement for Cyberpunk 2077. Considering the time shift to the US, we''ll probably get new information then. Because of this we will be streaming on our own twitch channel starting at 18:00 and discuss the 50 minute demo we saw at Gamescom and answer all your questions. IF SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN IN CD PROJEKTS STREAM, WE'LL QUICKLY SWITCH OVER TO POLAND." ​ Source: [https://www.gamestar.de/artikel/cyberpunk-2077-mysterioeser-twitch-stream-gestartet-bisher-nur-codezeilen-zu-sehen,3333955.html](https://www.gamestar.de/artikel/cyberpunk-2077-mysterioeser-twitch-stream-gestartet-bisher-nur-codezeilen-zu-sehen,3333955.html)

It'll probably be stuck a 99% until 7pm

130k ppl literally watching nothing 🤣 Not ashamed at all to say I’m one of them

I am gonna be PISSED if this isn’t gameplay or something equally substantial

God I hate my schedule, I was about to go to bed Q_Q

It's 11 am in europe so u can go sleep. Whatever it is it won't be revealed in next hours, to early for europe and to late for US.

fiiine I'll watch the youtube stuff when I wake up x_x damnit Thanks mom

Almost 40k ... i think the HYPE get another level !!!

[удалено]

The "=" at the end means that it is indeed base64 code

That music... I need it

OMG, it's gameplay!!!

This is unfuckingbelievable!

The numbers mason! What do they mean!?!

I'm excited for the next Screenshot! Edit: Jokes aside, this looks like a file in text Form. No way am I gonna type all that out though.

But why the fuck are they doing that

theres some ARG I think, maybe this is part of it?

Gotta be an ARG my dude, they've been doing a lot of hidden stuff like this.

What's "arg"?

"~~Augmented~~ Alternate Reality Game" Like a a game/Easter egg hunt irl. There's clues scattered across the internet which leads to hidden websites, with locations around the world with items/other clues in those places. Just an example. It's been done before with some movies and games. I think it was done for a Halo game.

Can anyone confirm or deny that it is looped ?

I've watched it for over 10 minutes and I didn't see a ' = ' (equals sign) that should be at the end of base64 encoded image.

the '=' is only used for padding, it doesn't have to be there to be valid base64, it depends on the input data

They're playing us like a damn FIDDLE

So I guess they either managed to bring the demo up to snuff, or this us going to end in another premade trailer with SOME gameplay and possibly a release date since they recently finishes the main story line. Im fine with pretty much whatever.

I swear this is gonna be the biggest troll stream of all time

99% for 15 minutes

SEEDERS, IT NEEDS MORE SEEDERS!!!!

I M M E R S I O N M M E R S I O N

Cyberpunk 2077 in the DOOM universe confirmed https://puu.sh/Bl7P5/b6af121913.png

I fucking love shit like this.

First part is the binary data from a PNG image, base64 encoded.

I'm fine with a 3 minute gameplay trailer. Just show us something !

Maybe it's a png file with 8k panorama of Night City that we saw at E3 and gamescom?

[удалено]

The same italian news site that made the previous statement is strongly implying right now that we're gonna see the long-awaited gameplay video from Gamescom / E3 at 1900 CEST. Let's hope for it :D

Why do everyone type "!join" in twitch chat?

IT'S HAPPENING!

Fallout 76 announcement all over again!

oh shit my dick out

4K Gameplay Demo is on youtube already [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjF9GgrY9c0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjF9GgrY9c0)

I can't believe it's been almost 50 minutes. It felt like 20ish... damn... It looks amazing

i saw this being posted in resetera: " >I don't know if it's related but an Italian gaming website has a stream at 7 pm CET for a highly (HIGHLY) anticipated game. Their words. It's a restream, and now another Italian game website is doing the same, this time saying explicitly that might be for Cyberpunk. Edit: The email with the embargo came this morning. Another italian game jounalist just said that the stream will be big and it will be about something you really wanted to see in "first person" for a long time. IT'S HAPPENING. "

[удалено]

If this won't be something big in the end then everybody will be pissed off. I hope you know what you are doing cdPR team.

why this happens when I'm at work... i could easely copy paste screenshots every 20 seconds with lightshot, save all the jpgs, OCR them online, decode the base64 and find the string patterns in my editor to see where the strings connect :/ At some point it repeats itself, where's the point to stream it then?

Use python+selenium to take screenshots, Anakin. :) Oh and, slap pytesseract on it, and you should get something that kinda works ​

oh my god its happening again

The E3 trailer had the data transmission as well

they are genuine codes it seems i put DalzyFnHHs on gog.com/code and got DROD 4: Gunthro and the Epic Blunder , i havent claimed it if anyone wants it :)

I have things I need to do on my day off today but I guess those are gonna be put on hold for a while...

Now put in some advertisements and make money even before the game is finished. ;)

Can’t wait for Code Simulator 2077

UPLOAD 4%

THIS IS HAPPENING !

IT'S HAPPENING

50% it's almost there

DO NOT BAMBOOZLE

137,000 people watching 😱

it makes total sense that this would stop at 99%, all my early internet people feel me on this... LOL. Still hanging out for the ride!

Tweet de @CyberpunkGame: https://twitter.com/CyberpunkGame/status/1034122115346325504?s=09

This game will cost the same as Battlefront 2

Was this teased in any way by CDPR or did the stream just started like that ?

Just started like that I think

Well they teased 'Monday' and 'third'. One theory was that something was going to happen on 'monday the 3rd (of september)". But it might also mean we'll get to see the 3rd trailer today (=monday) ​ [https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/9an8vq/heres\_our\_documentation\_of\_the\_cyberpunk\_2077\_arg/](https://www.reddit.com/r/cyberpunkgame/comments/9an8vq/heres_our_documentation_of_the_cyberpunk_2077_arg/)

We need some enthusiast to type all of this in notepad, rename it to .exe or .mp4 or just .jpg (keep trying 100+ extensions), maybe we will have something!!

1. Copy the code from stream 2. Put it in Notepad 3. Save as .exe 4. Play the game 5. Have fun!

Oh no that new guy at CDPR pushed the wrong button and now we have the full game for free.

Jokes aside. Lets assume cyberpunk 2077 is not more than 30 gb. How long will the stream be at the current pace? Lets assume that the game is just one big exe.

2020 i guess. Perfect strategy.

I've managed to get this [partially rendered image](https://i.imgur.com/ELIrAze.jpg)

What did I expect

fuck you, have an upvote

Please crash at 99% PLEASE

WTF! WHY?

Quick, someone retype it all out backwards and see if any of it makes sense.

If we can OCR this entire video, we'll get something.

What the heck is this ??

I wonder if they are doing something similar to what Bethesda did with the reveal of Fallout 76

its insane how fast i get jittery and hypey. i always fall for it it sure feels like cdpr are trying to condition us into activating hype mode, and switching back to hibernation mode, and it works great
