i was playing sp on the PS3 and unlocked the audio logs. now, as many of you recall, that Ark was built to sustain itself so that human kind could live on forever.

while listening to the logs, there was one in particular that caught my eye. it was by one of the founders. and in it contained a biblical passage. and thats when it hit me.

the Ark=Noah's Ark. and instead of 40 days and 40 nights, it was 40 years.

ARK=A Random act of Kindness.

the founders built the ark for saving human kind from destruction. Noah built his ark for the same purpose, but included animals of all kinds.

and that my friends, is what the Ark really means. even if you did know, this is a pretty neat idea nonetheless.


EDIT: to put things strait for the :flamethrower: ers, i knew this months before hand. the audio logs just confirmed it

you needed an audio log for that?

And let the quote pyramid commence.

OMG Spoiler Alert!!!! Who the hell is Noah? ROTFL

>Implying brink is spoil-able

relax nubs. no need to get excited. knew this would attract flamers. :flamethrower:

no, i didn't need audio logs or whatnot to figure this out. but it was officially confirmed by those. it was just something that i thought i might share with the community for those that didn't know. if you have a problem with it: http://static.black-frames.net/images/there-s-the-door_.jpg

I don't care what it means. I just want to shot people. :gun:

This guy's got it correct.

Ofcourse that's what it is.

Puberty is quite exciting, especially once you realize the purpose of your third leg.

Kinda put that together in my head about 6 months ago by watching interviews.

Now I don't have to listen to any of the audio logs.

Not like I was going to anyways

Anyone who knows at least a little bit about the religious refernces would pick up on the refernce immediatley

The Venus Project.
Please look it up.

EDIT: I look like a spambot. The Venus Project is where the Ark got it's designs from. First, I doubted, but after playing the campaign I'm 100% sure.

if you were looking to try to be a complete dike, it didn't work. instead, you now look like an ass.

this game has a story?

Wouldn't this be considered a spoiler? I know I saw something that says "NO SPOILERS" on the discussion thread.

I would hope anyone with a 4th grade education would know the biblical references used regarding the "Ark" and its purpose in Brink's story. After all, that is why the founders named the city as such, which makes this not an Easter Egg, but rather a detail in the story you sadly just realized.

However, just to play Devil's Advocate here...the reference of the Ark is incorrect. I'm not a religious guy, but Noah had to save two of every species (or least the one's God cared about ) so that through a series of rampart inbreeding, animals could repopulate (sounds like a flawless plan...right?). Well, in Brink, there are apparently no females so no matter what...the population will eventually die regardless of how much homo-tastic activity takes place. Just food for thought.

halarious idea you had thar.

however, this was just something fun for everyone to enjoy. (and for those that didn't know.)

and again, i figured this out a while back, the audio logs just confirmed it.

Well, we know there is at least 1 female on the ark so I think its safe to assume that there are more.

Do you honestly think none of us saw the anology?

:flamethrower:
no, just some of the people. if you have a problem with it, you know where the door is and how to use it. just dont let it hit you on the ass on the way out.

I knew that when I found out the name of the place was the ARK. However, I am glad you found out so I will put away my :flamethrower: for now.

Religious messages?!? Awwwww...now I can't play anymore. Bible thumpers ruin everything...
