We've been in a loop the whole time..

After reading "Ghosts of Alcatraz" Group 935

Starting it breaking the rift. What if every easter egg of every

Map so far, is breaking the cycle? Which explains why the N4

experince deja-vu everytime you enter the bank. We've been

In this broken rift since the begining..

Now that I think about it that makes perfect sense, good find! :D

I thought everyone knew the space-time continuum was fucked up after they overloaded the teleporter in Der Riese

The loops technically occur when our crews die in the storyline rather in the gameplay itself. The original four never died from what we know, so they are progressing through each area and time. Does it still distort the time flow? Yes.

The new crew has died once in Die Rise, but was brought back to life by Richtofen. They could've easily have died a few more times than that, but we truly do not know. Does it still distort the time flow? We aren't too sure yet, since they've only encountered teleportation once and it's unknown if they broke through time.

The Mob of the Dead crew are obviously in loops. They are force to survive in purgatory on Earth by reliving that dreadful New Year's night. Every time they try and die on their own, they are brought back to the beginning of the cycle as their torment until something can be done for the cycle to be broken (Al killing the crew). Does it still distort the time flow? In a sense, yes.

There seems to be two timeflows that we must take into consideration here: what we consider as the real timeline, and what is parallel to it. The cycles in Mob of the Dead are parallel to the actually events that occurred. The other two crews never experienced this before, but it can happen if they were to go back in time.

But yes; all this is one huge rift; a distortion if you will.

It seems the "loop" the 4 in der rise are stuck in seems to be caused by Richthofen wanting them to complete the tasks for him, and the loop the 4 in MOTD experience is a sort of purgatory.

They are both clearly stuck in a loop but I don't think the loops are connected, what is connected is the cause of the loops. Whoever controls the zombies are creating these loops, witch shows that they have power over time and space as well.

The result of the loops I have not yet though about too much
