==Puzzle 5: Datamoshed Screenshots== ===Discovery=== On August 8, 2016, a [https://blzgdapipro-a.akamaihd.net/media/screenshot/dorado-screenshot-004.jpg modified version] (henceforth known as "datamoshed") of a [https://blzgdapipro-a.akamaihd.net/media/screenshot/dorado-screenshot-005.jpg Dorado screenshot] was added to the media page of the official ''Overwatch'' website.<ref group="dorado image">2016-08-08, [https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/media/ The modified Dorado screenshot and its original can be found under Screenshots, titled "Screenshot: Dorado"], ''Play Overwatch''.</ref><ref group="dorado image">2016-08-08, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jpv0MLsPvlw Discovery of the modified Dorado screenshot], ''Youtube''.</ref> ===Step One=== If opened with a text editor, you can see that some characters from the original image have been replaced with exclamation points in the datamoshed version.<ref group="dorado image">2016-08-08, [https://www.diffchecker.com/dquzfxjr Differences between original (left) and modified (right) screenshots of Dorado], ''Diffchecker''.</ref> Comparing both files with a [[wikipedia:Diff utility|<code>diff</code> utility]] and outputting the difference gives the following: <ref group="dorado image">[http://axxim.net/ow/gol-guesser/dorado/ How to compare the files on Linux], ''Axxim.net''</ref> :Por que estan mirando al cielo? La respuesta no esta sobre sus cabezas, esta detras de ustedes. A veces, necesitan analizar sus logros previos. Translated from Spanish: :''Why do you look to the sky? The answer is not above your heads, it's behind you. Sometimes, you need to analyze your previous achievements.'' It's theorized that this puzzle was a failed attempt to help users solve the [[Sombra/ARG#Puzzle 3: Tracer's Trail|salted message]] or the [[Sombra/ARG#Puzzle 4: Compass|compass]], and that the following steps were improvised when progress continued to not be made. ===Step Two=== On August 11, 2016, a new achievement was added to players' profiles on Play Overwatch.<ref group="dorado image">2016-08-11, [http://i.imgur.com/rGb0b8H.png The ¿ achievement], ''Imgur''.</ref> A message is hidden within the page's [[wikipedia:Source code|source code]]: :<nowiki><!--Vientos, nada mal.

But I'm getting bored. Let's try something new in the same direction.'' ===Step Three=== The non-Spanish in the above message is using a Vigenére cipher.<ref group="dorado image">2016-08-11, [https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/4xaowv/sombra_arg_achievement_comment_has_been_solved/ Solving the achievement puzzle], ''Reddit''.</ref> It uses the heroes from the [[Sombra/ARG#Puzzle 4: Compass|compass]], starting from the top left and going clockwise, as a key.

The output is the following: ===Final Message=== Parece que te gustan estos jueguitos... por que no jugamos uno de verdad? :PB@Bk: ,jB@@B@B@B@BBL. 7G@B@B@BMMMMMB@B@B@Nr :kB@B@@@MMOMOMOMOMMMM@B@B@B1, :5@B@B@B@BBMMOMOMOMOMOMOMM@@@B@B@BBu. 70@@@B@B@B@BXBBOMOMOMOMOMOMMBMPB@B@B@B@B@Nr G@@@BJ iB@B@@ OBMOMOMOMOMOMOM@2 B@B@B.
