Wow, what an old and obscure reference to the movie Hackers...

Angelia Jolie and a bunch of other teenage hackers defeat an evil hacker overlord by "hacking the Gibson" which is a supercomputer programmed to unleash a virus that will capsize oil tankers around the world. The Gibson was a "supercomputer" which, by the way, was large enough to ride a skateboard through and had terminals the size of a mini metropolis with green/black data flashing up and down the the sides.

Blast from the past man!

I've encountered several people that get bugged on this stage of the quest.

I've submitted a ticket about it, but I expect to hear the same response I was given yesterday "We're looking into it"

Commento di Drunkion

It's funny because you actually "HACK" at the Wibson with an axe/polearm thing... no computer knowledge necessary :)

Commento di 303556

You are supposed to turn this in at the fusion core that appears a few feet from the "hacking". The fusion core is where it's intended to turn in at, but if deathwing has been around, it bugs out and u cannot interact with it.

I discovered this and a couple hours later the realm had a rolling restart. I flew back to this and was able to interact properly with the fusion core.

Once you turn this quest in, you are able to pickup a new quest called Gnomebliteration, and it's pretty fun lol... definatly worth the trouble to keep this quest and turn in after a realm reset.

When I accepted this quest, it seriously made me laugh. I laughed harder when you actually started 'hacking' the wibson.

There is a tool box by the Wibson Mainframe Click it and then click the Wibson. I had to log out and log back in to get the tool box work.

Commento di 437722

If you have trouble looting the tool box relog. It just worked for me.

Commento di Zebracak3s

What happens if you can't interaction with fusion core. Does it only have 1% health to everyone else?

Commento di 274618

77.63 where the Fusion Core is (the big yellow ball on top of the submarine-whatchamacallit thing). Face the fusion Core, turn around 180 deg and a few yards in front of you, you will see a toolbox and the mainframe (looks like a mail box). click on the toolbox and then click on the "mainframe".

Turn quest in at the Core.

Can't turn in quest the fusion core is at 1/6141 HP and no ? to turn in. i think is bug.

Commento di Sulis

coords 77, 63 on top of the big vehicle

After getting the axe, right click the MOLL-E thing next to the toolbox. That's how you do it. Discovered it on accident.

Commento di Haleth

Seems like a wink to "unhackable" Macs as well.

Commento di BelziBhaal

The use of the axe is also a Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy reference.

Commento di 421626

Leads to the amazing: Lo sterminio degli Gnomi

Hack The Planet! Lol, great freaking movie. I love little references like this.

Love, sex, secret, god... I bet one of them works. If not then try mother.

To add to the ever increasing list of Blizzard references to real life, as of today, the text as you complete this quest on the Fusion Core says:

"Let us hope that floating-point error got worked out during my last maintenance cycle"

Given the "amateurish state" of computer design in the WoW universe, it's not hard to draw a similarity with a certain Pentium bug (for us old farts) and this reference. +1 to Blizz for poking fun at Intel. ;)

The Reference in question, Pentium FDIV Bug

Commento di 739103

Yep, relogging worked for me, next quest is superb!

Commento di 11636

I thought it was another Hitchhiker's reference.

"...if you don't open that exit hatch this moment I shall zap straight off to your major data banks and reprogram you with a very large axe, got that?"

Commento di 748385

bugged. waited until after the WoW server maintenance session and then turned it in OK.

Commento di 211590

Is it just me, or does the entire M.A.C. Diver ship look strikingly like the airship Megaman uses, particularly in Megaman Legends?

Commento di xSylvane

If Deathwing lights the thing on fire and ruins it for you (like he did for me), wait until the flames go out and relog, and the axe will spawn correctly.

Commento di guatafu

What? No Jawas?

Commento di guatafu

One more thing: the toolbox AND the Wibson are both on top of the ~~sandcrawler~~ M.A.C. there is a tent next to the M.A.C. with two tool boxes, dont make my mistake and expect the polearm to spawn there, those are merely graphical.

Commento di Alvia

Get it? :'D Hacking... with an axe? Get it?

Gosh, hack can also mean chop. ._. not just hacking as in hacking into a system.

Commento di 771298

Hackers reference which took it's reference from the novels written by William Gibson.

Commento di healingenzo

CRASH & BURN !

Commento di 820341

Axe is also slang for a Guitar. Gibson makes guitars. Multithread humor, oh yeah!

Commento di 381467

Also a Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy ref here, where Ford Prefect threatens to rewire the computer on the Heart Of Gold "with a large axe"

Commento di 553334

Also, M.A.C. Diver = MacGyver?

Man, this quest has so many references it could start a fusion reaction on its own.

Commento di 54981

Just completed this quest, and now everyone says they have to change their WoW passwords?

Sorry. My bad.

Descrizione

[It is true. New expedition crews have arrived by sea.

My scanners detect that they already have been afflicted by the curse phenomenon.

You must hurry and go aboard the M.A.C. Diver. The access codes will give us control over the fusion core's functions, but there is still a layer of security we must bypass.

User <name>, I must ask you to hack a very sophisticated mainframe known as the "Wibson."

Do not worry I will provide you with further instructions.]
