    • Too late to enter storyline?

      I got the email from Agent Greedo about ARC very early on, so I decided to build up my money and equipment before doing anything about it. (Also, I couldn't figure out how to get onto the ARC Central Mainframe even - I didn't know about routing through the Public Access Server).

      Months have passed, and now I am a millionnaire with the best of everything. However, I cannot work out how to trigger the storyline. I have hacked into ARC Central Mainframe but can't find what to do.

      I followed advice about just trying to use the codes that Greedo gives you, but they don't work (of course) and ARC never tries to contact me. I have waited weeks - on fast forward - but nothing happens.

      Is it too late or is there some way I can trigger the storyline?

      Well generally how it goes is, once receiving the email, you hack into ARC's mainframe. But all you really have to do is try to get in, like break the password. (So I've heard) I got in, but didn't do anything. And if you fast-forward the time you should receive an email from ARC saying they noticed you poking around in their system, and they checked your background, and they want to employ you etc.

      I don't know if it can be too late or not, since I've only played thru once so far. So try getting into their mainframe, then fast-forwarding.

      Hope this helps!

      It is of worth to note, that it is also possible to side with Arunmor shortly after joining ARC.

      After some time the storyline will start going without you.
      I posted a topic myself, asking how I can get involved into the storyline. Wumpus, I think you answered the question here. Thank you.
