Norrmyra Artillery Base + FOA 2

Okay
I was the victim of the best bug in the game.
We can see casemates under the small metal sillots (which can confirm the elevator theory).

And a big structure under the main sillot, in which the bug made me enter.

I find it crazy.

On the last one I’m in the middle hole

Where is Foa2 located. I’ve found Foa4 but not Foa2, where is it?

Any ideas on any future content this may be part of? Ex. Underground bunkers.

Merging topics, and reviving ye olde Norrmyra thread.

Soooooo. Not sure if we were supposed to do this or not, or if it is for a later idea, but a couple friends and I saw this artillery base that was walled off from the rest of the world and we decided, “F*** it, We’re getting in there!” A failed attempt and 10 compressed air tanks later, we had sent one selected individual to space and over the wall.
We explored for maybe 5 minutes, each of us looking in a new spot, but in the end, we came to the middle and discussed our shared thaughts. So our question is, Are they going to make this into something, A final Boss area, A big arena where you put a few different robots behind each door? Just an Idea.

We loved the look of the inside and think it has some amazing potential for a awesome lore spot.

Just so you know you can actually open the doors and walk inside. No need to waste resources.

Is it a quest to open them? We never found anything that worked. All the computers around it were busted, there was a button outside the door in a small concrete pod but we couldn’t use it.

there is a place you see that works

there is no visual handle, but there is a way to open ther door. It is @ about waist height and a white circle will highlight and you can open the door with that, you just have to look hard.

Threads merged. Nice screenshot, though.

U can get in if u stand in front of left door there’s the opening button same as with other doors, u can’t see it but if ure close enough it will reveal. also all doors inside are to be opened that way.

Kinda makes you wonder if it was designed to keep people safe inside or designed to trap something inside…

FOA 2 is testing ground with walls built around to keep something in, not something out.

When looking at the spotlights at the top of the walls, they all are pointed inwards (like IRL prisons have them), rather than outwards.
Also, the destruction inside is far greater than destruction just outside of it.

In my opinion The base was used to keep the first machines to be used sort of like a field test zone because they hadn’t experimented with them I think that some machines where being tested in there and the bases defenders where stopping those ones and that’s why the base was overrun fast

the developers have hidden a clue about the game concerning the FAO 2, go take a look at the FAO 4 you will have your answer and especially observe the ground well.

Assumption:
For the place, FAO 2, I think that this is a test zone for combat machines, it could be that the main ramp in the center is a kind of elevator

Is that not what I just said lol

I complete :clin d’œil:

In FOA 4, the FOA 2 elevator might be an oversight of using existing assets. If you start looking at tiny details like that, you’d start asking why wiring in rubber tubes is connected to large metal pipes or for the reaper, why are they connected to concrete. You can notice which areas have had objects placed hastily and which places had objects/models somewhat adjusted for the specific scenario.\

Players of GZ will develop pattern recognition in how books are placed in shelves soon enough :smiley:

Never thought I’d update this thread again but here’s some interesting tidbits that came with the FNIX Rising Update.

The gates to FOA 2 are now open by default. And there’s lots of FNIX activity in the area, along with strange formations on the map.

The central platform in the “arena” is ajar, and one can peek inside… Some kind of silo down there, related to the nearby locked bunker perhaps?
