gersch device, noticed something new maybe...

[GOaheadRAGEQUIT]

So I was playing solo today and the first thing I got from the box was gersch device. I had not turned the power on and threw one just to see what happens. It brings color back to the enitre map just like the power is on while its out.

My friend had the idea of buying a perk and I tryed but sadly it still says power needs to be on. Just wondering if anyone else has played with these while the power is off or if anyone thinks there could be some significance to this or anything that can come from it or just the way the map lights from shading when the device is release etc...

thanks for the input sorry if this has been covered but searched and didn't find any post about it.

Good find. Strange that a black hole or singularity that in reality would actually suck in all availible light ( wavelengths) works the opposite way in the game. I dont usualy hit the box before turning on the power, maybe there is something in that.

I mean to say they put the first box spawn right next to the power switch, I guess most players or a large percentage would turn the power on while they are there without even thinking twice about it.

I've thought about that before and canvased the entire map (playing til about round 15) in black and white but didn't see anything abnormal or that stood out to me, just the first time I got gersch while doing so.

Awesome find man i havent heard about this on the forums.im gonna have to give it a try myself.it may be completely insignificant,but a good find none the less.

+ [brains] !

Ive only got Gersch devices out of the box once on my 1st try before i turned on the power, i didnt think anything of it because i usually never use them. o well. nice find though.

I played with it more last night.

When I throw by flopper it lights and colors the whole map but if I throw by stam-up it does almost nothing. I really don't know what to make of it.

my main goal is to try and figure out if there is any possible way to use it to temp power everything. Why? Cause if this was able to be done you could purchase perks w/o having monkey rounds (Yes in exchange for no landers) The only reason I believe this MIGHT be able to happen at all is because of the fact you can buy quick revive on solo w/o power and monkeys will NOT come if you don't turn the power on... so moneys come because of power and perks not just because you have a perk.

Will post more if I can find anything of interest. Also if anyone has a capture card or something and would like to record and document this I'm down just send me a msg GT: GOaheadRAGEQUIT

Sorry to bring something else up, but with the Gersch Device, has anyone spoken about the fact that numbers/letters shoot out of it when used, similar to the teleports on 'Five'?

Could the Americans and Russians shared technology? Or is there more behind the story.

Sorry no picture available, but im sure you have seen it but not realized it.

Has anyone tried throwing the Gersh devise at the generater from the mystery man easter egg befor turning on the power?

[GOaheadRAGEQUIT]

Well its not possible. You need the monkey round to happen for the 2nd node. Without the power on monkeys will never come...

If you mean the first step near flopper then yes, works as normal and node 1 still activates by touching the iluminiti screen. So in theory you can start the mmegg but can't go past step 2. (I've done this all but 1 time I've played with this)

I tryed a few different things this morning but nothing was out of place or new.

The only constant I'm getting is when the power is off the gersch seems to always teleport me into the spawn room next to the lander.

Can anyone else try this for me on solo and see if they have the same thing happen? I'm also down to do this with 4 people if anyone wants just send me a msg and lemme know your from codz

I've seen what you mean but don't think anything of it. Could mean something like what you said though and mean something as far as the story line goes in the future. When you throw in b&w and there's no background noise you can hear gersch devices really well too. They make a very powerful electric sound while they're going off.

I meant just the first step... sorry for not clarifying that.

I'm pretty sure if you shoot the gersch device with the wunderwaffe, its the same effect as the nuke powerup

Are you trying to be funny?

If you don't have anything to add then you don't have to post :)

[pussy meow]

just thinking, you know at the end of the easter egg when sam screams and the power goes out mabye throw a gersh and dive into it because someone previously said they always get teleported to the starting room and people have been trying to relate the centerfuge to the mystery man easter egg. i cant try because my xbox got red rings

I did have something to say, and it was funny. Don't troll.

Fail joke. All you look like is a troll when you say that in a serious topic that might have to do with the Mystery Man easter egg.

Back on topic: Could this have anything to do with HITSAM and HYENA? Maybe there are alternate endings to the egg, so we do not have the correct answer until the next map.

[GOaheadRAGEQUIT]

Trolling my own post you moron?

I call um as I see um... Guess some of the users here arn't too much better than on the cod forums.

I'll be sure to share anything I find in the future :)

[GOaheadRAGEQUIT]

and in case we didnt notice this HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EGG. have a nice day.

the egg is done so get over it, I'm just trying to find new things.

[gamerfan74]

It could be to advance the storyline, saying that things can come out of the Gersh Device as well as go in. It could be hinting at the possibility of Sam or a new enemy escaping from the dimension of the Gersh Device.

[GOaheadRAGEQUIT]

Did more testing.

I have noticed that you can not throw gersch device over doors into an un-opened area (well you can but it acts the same as if you thew if off the map)

still trying to figure out a way to at least semi control how the teleport works, still no patterns I have found yet.

If anyone knows anything about the device that has not been posted please feel free to share.
