The No-Pat Disappearance - The Exodus Archives

![[missing-no-pats.png]] *Published on September 13th* --- Hey there, Comet here! Today, the community has discovered new posters of No-Pats that are MIA. These are found on all maps and each map has one poster. I have to thank BatmanWilliam for finding the first poster! On each poster, there is a portrait shot of the missing No-Pat and the location where they were last seen. There is also a QR code, which leads to a new website: https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/find-no-pats ## Lore The background of Season 6 is found in this new webpage. We learn that the Arkangel Corporation is performing an effort to find displaced No-Pats called "the No-Pat Recovery Initiative." At the surface, this seems like a noble initiative, but once you piece together the surrounding lore you'll realize this is just a ploy for Arkangel to grow its power. The War of 2042 did not stop after the No-Pat victory in the Battle of Richtersveld and the founding of Namaqualand. The fighting has continued throughout the years between Season 4: Eleventh Hour and Season 5: New Dawn. Thus, the No-Pats continued to fight for their cause and sought to defend their new homeland. Arkangel claims, "In the past few years, there has been an unprecedented increase in missing person cases involving Non-Patriated soldiers." This is what Arkangel wants the public to believe - it is serving the greater good of humanity. There's evidence to believe that Arkangel is taking these injured soldiers and entering them into the "Warriors Reborn" initiative. Examine this quote: >"**Neural link technologies and prosthetics division:** The team has done phenomenal work on the rollout of our “Warriors Reborn” initiative. We have restored more than 20,000 soldiers to full operational capacity through the application of our enhanced prosthetics. It is worth highlighting Boreas’ research in this field promises revolutionary developments and heralds a paradigm shift in infantry warfare."[^1] Arkangel is retrieving gravely injured soldiers from battlefields across the world. Once the commanding officers and other high-ranking officials find out that their soldiers are missing, it's already too late. These men and women are Arkangel's soldiers now and they become reborn, with newfound abilities thanks to their enhanced prosthetics. To cover their tracks, Arkangel has set up the NRI. Those soldiers' families and friends are assured that Arkangel will use every resource it has to find them, but they never will. Arkangel also mentions their Ascension Satellite Network (ASN), which has been deployed across several battlegrounds throughout the world. The ASN was first introduced in the web lore for the "Arkangel Directive" event during Season 5. In the event game mode called "Control," our No-Pats are equipped with Arkangel telemetry sensors and we must sync our sensors with the Arkangel satellites above the battlefield. Arkangel is using the extensive database provided by ASN to "help" find those missing No-Pats. ![[boreray-island.jpg]] There is another section of this webpage titled "Alpha." The only thing contained on this page is an image provided above. There are the following coordinates "57.713942,-7.290744" on this image. This reveals a potential location for the Season 6 map: Boreray, Scotland. Boreray is an island that certainly tracks with the landmass shown in the image as well. There are also two lines of text, one which can be discerned and one that cannot. The first line of text appears to say "Underground facility." This is something that has been long speculated because of the "Never Back Down" player card. >In the land reclaimed a secret in transit… Our Moravian allies did well to stop it here. But it will not last. Soon, the faithful warriors will descend and secure what they have lost. Then its journey will continue west, **to a place far below.** Be vigilant, No-Pats. We must stand united against the threat that is coming. I will signal when ready for you to join the fight. I find it interesting how this subsection is titled "Alpha." This could mean that there are multiple bases around the world that carry out the "Warriors Reborn" initiative. This website could possibly be updated more throughout the remaining weeks until Season 6. We could discover the location of the "Beta" and "Charlie" bases. ## Posters As provided below, I have made graphics for every location of the new posters. ### Breakaway ![[Breakaway-MIA.png]] ### Discarded ![[Discarded-MIA.png]] ### Exposure ![[Exposure-MIA.png]] ### Flashpoint ![[Flashpoint-MIA.png]] ### Hourglass ![[Hourglass-MIA.png]] ### Kaleidoscope ![[Kaleidoscope-MIA.png]] ### Manifest ![[Manifest-MIA.png]] ### Orbital ![[Orbital-MIA.png]] ### Reclaimed ![[Reclaimed-MIA.png]] ### Renewal ![[Renewal-MIA.png]] ### Spearhead ![[Spearhead-MIA.png]] ### Stranded ![[Stranded-MIA.png]] That's all I have for this blog!
