Have they explained the whole left foot/right foot thing yet?

How do you mean?

no it was just a bad day and there was a storm that brought the black rock crashing into the statue destroying it.

From the looks of it, the island is underwater :s Because the water level is at the statues shins.

From the looks of it, the island is underwater :s Because the water level is at the statues shins.

Its not underwater, you can faintly see the islands back mountains. Also, from the perspective of the camera, the water is really rough and wavy, allowing the water ahead to raise as a wave, giving the illusion against the statue that its under water.

They screwed up with that specific scene because in last season's opener, Jacob and the man in black see the boat off in the distance, yet it's supposed to be morning (they said "Morning" to each other). Can't really believe the boat was floating there all day until the thunderstorm came and a tsunami like wave finally brought them in at night. A minor oversight, still irks me though as this is a show about details. It also overlooks the specific bearing that allows you to get on or off the island. Ok, maybe the waves kept them on that bearing.... yeah, not seeing that. Very likely something else they won't address.

Well I meant not fully underwater, like if the water was at the shin level, then a fair bit of the island was covered by the sea..

there's alot of plot holes in that whole scene, but there's no reason why it couldnt be a monsoon or something that breached the beach level and part the way in...we need birds eye views and google earth :p

First thing I noticed when I saw the scene of the boat and the storm with the island in the distance. Seems to be too large of a mistake for something as obvious and memorable as the first Jacob and MIB scene we see in S5

Yet the ship was still fully intact even after it hit the ground.

It is magical statue made from foam rock, one of the island's secrets. Atleast it has moving legs apparently. I'm just wondering what the left leg been doing the last couple of years and were was the right leg during season two. Must be long way to the nearest grocery strore.

it took that boat 20 years to get there? because Richard's flashback started in 1867

also: am i wrong or to this point has MiB only been dead people that were on the island? Yemi, Christian, Alex, Locke, etc...

so if we are supposed to believe that was him as Isabella...how?

my mistake, I meant 1867, just watched replay. If you remember smokey hovered infront of Richardo for a fair while possibly scanning his mind as he has done in the past.

Everything that happened on the black rock was caused by smokey.

Jacob looked very confused when Richardo turned up wanting blood from el diabolo.

Im going to assume it was primarily the power and force of the storm that weakens / brought it down.

Yeah, with such a tall statue and a huge crashing wave goes into it + The Black Rock, will make some impact, surely?

yeah depends really how long the statue had been there for over thousands of years it could be weakened, I just dont buy a ship destroying it

May be the statue had already been weakened to the point of breaking (it has been standing like that since forever, as we know it; may be tidal waves have been splashing it with salt water on its feet weakening the feet). It took a simple nudge from the Black Rock to topple it over. Then the wave carried the ship inwards, and when it receded, the ship got stuck in the mud.

Anyway, what's the point nitpicking over so much detail?

A buddy just sent me a PM about my comment and he initially thought the same thing, but then pointed out that we don't know for certain that the boat in the opening scene in season five's finale was in fact the Black Rock. I also noticed that the man in black's hair was different in last night's episode and last year's finale (it was shorter, cleaner cut, last year it was slightly longer, messy). Those details have more of an argument than my mine does, so while the logical assumption was that it was the Black Rock in the distance during the day, we have no definitive proof. Besides, if other people were brought to the island, exactly how would they come during those hundreds, or even thousands, of years? By boat!

    • Payday TWO!! Is 13 years old man I feel old - I remember trying it out and if I did not know I would say 5-6 years ago or something
    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
