The Rec Room Iceberg Explained...

Corrections: 1:00 "Rec Room made in 2016": Rec Room was indeed released in 2016. However, it only released and was only playable using an HTC Vive at first, playable via Steam. The Oculus Rift did exist but the touch controllers were not out yet. Rec Room didn't come to the Oculus Rift until December 7th, 2016, the same day the Touch controllers released. Fun fact: While I wasn't around at the time, builds dating back to the first available public build already supported the Touch controllers. One can assume the devs had pre-release units available to them before they were out for the public. 1:58 "Rec Room Moderators": HairyManLegs isn't really a moderator, they just happen to have the same developer privileges that allow them to take moderator actions like any other support member of developer, but it doesn't mean they actually do any of the moderating themselves, nor do they ban players. 7:58 "Setting is a school": It's not supposed to be a school. It's just a recreational center, rec center for short obviously. I see the school similarities but as far as I know, it's not supposed to represent one. 9:04 "2015 trailer": This one gets tossed around a lot, and it's very misleading. The game began development in April 2016. This trailer was made between April and June of 2016. Rec Room did not exist in 2015 in any way, shape, or form. 12:19 "Coach Hacked": This one is very misleading too. Nobody has ever gotten into the @Coach account. What happened here is that before anti-cheat was implemented, people could hack their client to spoof their account to look like another account to other players. This means that the real account they were using was likely a low level account with a random username, but using their hacks they could spoof their account to other game clients and lie to them about which @username they really were using. Source: I'm making an iceberg video, it currently has 70~ different entries right now (some of which were in this video already), and the estimate video length is currently over a hour. I've also been around since 2017 so I know a thing or two.

Fun fact: The “Build 01/01/1987 happens to me back in 2019, I was new to VR at the time so I didn’t know how to screenshot it but, I can say that this is true.

Now I have a reason to exist.

Sorry I didn't upload on friday, my link cable stopped working. I hope you enjoy this longer video about the rec room iceberg lol. Also mukbang or something at the end idk....

Jumbotron: "You'll never bring me down!" Glitches under stairs Jumbotron: "Oh god Da-"

13:41, I was "lucky" enough to have loaded into this on accident, basically I had accidentally left my headset (Quest 1) running rec room overnight, when I put it on, I loaded into that dorm room, it was like a normal dorm room but of course with those numbers and a pitch black vibe, something felt very ominous about it, however I failed to actually document my discovery because after about 30 seconds, my game crashed.

I love how the whole Coach’s identity thing is like what happened with the director in club penguin. I’d love to see an event someday that leans in to finding out who coach is.

THIS HAS AN ICEBERG, BUT PAC-MAN DOESN'T? Ngl, I'm really excited.

good video, The coach account was some guy who changed some files to make his name and level say coach, The coach account cant actually be logged onto, not even by a dev.

Dead man wearing vr headset in the rec center. Apparently a guy in the rec center had a heart attack in the rec center and people thought he was dead but was found out that he was alive and well after.

6:08 so you could say it was an out of body experience

10:53 the “Dark Being” is most likely Hunter who I believe to be Rec Room’s main antagonist

Rec room lore: boe is the number 1 supporter of kfg

When I watched the “forbidden one” topic another time, I was like: No wonder i was having creepy vibes in the loading screen

I love these iceberg videos, this was a treat to watch

13:21 Seems like an minecraft reference to me. Mojang has done something similar with herobrine in (almost) every update they writed in the patch notes: herobrine removed

This is my theory of how rec room started (game lore, not talking bout the company) It all started 20 million years ago. Coach, who was still alive at that time, was scared of the end of the world. She knew that one day, the world would end. Because she believed this, she decided to do something. She spent trillions of dollars (she was rich) on building the entire rec room universe. Everyone saw it and ridiculed her for it, but she did not care, so she kept building. Eventually, she was right. The world did end. A black hole created by the forbidden one started swallowing the entire universe. Eventually, rec room was the only thing left. In fear of their lives, everyone started running towards the place, knowing that is was the only way they would live. The rec center was designed to look like a college. Coach wanted them to forget about the real world. We have been in the rec room universe for millions of years, but it only has felt like 5. Coach wanted us to think we lived in the real world. Eventually, Coach, sadly, passed away (which is why the account is no longer active.) Even though she is no longer with us, her legacy continues to thrive as the person who saved us all. Eventually, the black hole will consume us though (the day you guys don’t make enough money to keep the servers running.) It is a sad fact, but it is our impending doom….

I have something for the forbidden one: so The forbidden one can be a sign saying you’re going to get banned soon or you’re getting reported too much.

I got this from another iceberg: an anonymous player changed their token count with cheat engine a day before anti cheat was added

That out of body glitch scared me so much the first time it happened for a second I thought I died then I remembered I was in rec room 😅💀
