Eidos Montreal's Stephane D'Astous tweets another clue for the coded message from Deus Ex: Human Revolution, following this hint from earlier. The new message says: "DXHR's treasure hunt ... i have been told to tweet this important message 'a d / u k / w 0' ... good luck to all." Meanwhile Jean-François Dugas tweets: "7 2 / m 1 / . 4," and Sebastien Bisch offers a hint: "think about WHO and you'll find WHERE, eventually." Here's the sequence we have so far in as close as we can figure to the original order:

Original message from the game:

    okM8-+Ds4Dui?lMh$Mzvm14SBqe7;G.l6=u74b?mkh-45Ki60d+98XBpCku7

Also from the game:

    5 - / ! f / f q / x c / q y / d 3 / ? x / t $ / j #

Via this tweet:

    a d / u k / w 0

Via this tweet:

    r 5 / i e / y p

Via this tweet:

    7 2 / m 1 / . 4

I'm honestly not sure if I'm imagining this, if it's true then it could really cut down on time, going strait for the Red Security nodes directly. Anyone else tested this yet? Thanks. Your theory is interesting... For me, I've also noticed capturing the red is good... But I keep capturing all the cubes, then the red, and sometimes nothing is added... sometimes 1 or all lines are doubled... -Alamar Capturing the security node instantly unlocks everything in the entire "level." So unless you can't reach it because it's behind a one-way pathway, it's usually quicker to capture the security node. Creston
