Easter Eggs & Funny places

Do you know some?

Yesterday I started my hunt (with help from ParagonWiki, the forum, and friends). Here's what I found:

- There's the very known one in Faultine, with the badge.
- In Grandville, on the west side, the Coralax in the little water spot.
- In Grandville, the Mike Appolis plate.
- Two "Secret Isles", first one in the Monster Island (NW), and the second in Cap au Diable (SW).
- The Hanged (that bugs a little) in St Martial (NW).
- Hell Forge (Sharkhead) = Cryptic Logo
- Dev's Dungeon in Grandville. Kind of hard to find, but I wonder which dev is on steroids
- "A photo of the beta city of heroes design team can be found behind the nurse's counter in most hospitals.". If I saw it correctly, War Witch is in the foreground (and I'm sure she's behind many of this easter eggs).
- NPC names in Firebase Zulu are Omega Sektor attendees. I wasn't at Omega Sektor, but I saw a soldier named "Nakayama"

- Not an easter egg, but I find it fun, Rularuu's throne in FBZ (North). Well, I'm not sure it's Rularuu's, but it's biiig.

So guys do you know other things like that? I think War Witch once said that there was some easter eggs in the Invention Tutorial but no many people found them...

Beber!!!! Bonjour!!! Miss you french people

By the way whats the secret isles on monster isle? All the others i've heard of except that one!

Not so much a secret because everyone knows about it and its out in the open, but the jurrasic park style monkey cage on monkey island always makes me laugh.

I always forget about the easter eggs I discover.

I suppose most people know about the Eye of Horus in Oil Slick.

Not much of one, but there's an odd pair of islands in the Storm Palace past the Storm Palace itself that's not on the map, and has no enemies. They have a couple gravity geysers, although one just shoots you straight up and the other shoots you off into the void and resets you at the start of the zone.

Also, since I'm thinking of the Shadow Shard, there's a giant throne in Firebase Zulu.

That one might be set as a ghost on purpose, so it disappears when you get close enough.

In the water of Oil Slick (if you've ever gone to the Mayhem submarine in PO you'll have passed it), northeast of the sunken ship, there's a strange blotch of discoloured water. Fly directly above it, in first person view for a better look.

Don't forget about the giant stone face hidden somewhere in the Shadow Shard. I found it once by accident. It's CREEPY!

ooooo saying that, theres a floating stone enemy in the shadow shard that gives you a MAJOR long debuff if you go near it!




Made me stop street [island?] sweeping for a while and gaze in awe at it!

I just saw it, it's a pretty nice one!

I saw a screenshot of it a while ago, but I NEVER saw it IG... if anyone know where it is. I'm gonna look for it this night anyway

Ok, try the red point on that map. It's pretty massive, so you won't miss it (if I'm right ).

I think they give a debuff AND buff. IIRC the last one I shot give me +deg and -regen (or something like that).

Deep in the bowels of Grandville are non-targetable 3 Omega Bombs waiting for an unsuspecting explorer. They aggro at a pretty large distance and will start floating towards you, exploding in what appears to be melee range.

I think he can hear you, Ray.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Edit: Looking at the map, they're in the stretch of tunnels leading out from the main island to the Fab.

What the...

I've never seen those before. And I've been running lots of 5SFs and superspeeding through those tunnels to get back and forth from the tower and the CHOPPAH!

If you look closely at the computers in a mission, you can see that they display some kind of leetspeak-style message.

In one of the Arachnos maps, in one of the large rooms ( a prison area I think ) you can hop over a large horizontal pipe and find a hidden area scattered with crates covered in magazines and bottles. Apparently where the Wolf Spiders go to drink and . . . read on the job.

Or how about that giant honking door in the Hive which would have been used for the trial they had planned for the Hive but never followed through on.

Which one? There are quite a few scattered about, identical to the one used for the Woodsman Trial. When Hamidon spawns, all the Monsters head right for them to bug out. Its been a while, but I believe the Abyss has some too for the same purpose.

There is also one in RWZ (SW), near LGTF's first mission. But I still wonder why it's here. There's no obvious use for this one.

What we really need is spoiler tags that you can click a button to expand, since most screenshots are quite large.

Here's my screenshots of one of the Monuments in the Storm Palace. (There are several kinds and they appear at random):

Those were taken back in I11 I think. I somehow am not in Beta Testers now and can't get in 'cause it's full. :frowny face:
