Mysterious button in FSC - SOLVED

Credits to Azukii from [Coup De Grace] for finding the treasure boxes.
After that, I decided to do a solo FSC run and purposely did not press the button. What I found out was that if you press the button, a blue box will appear. If you shoot that blue box, you'll get access to three treasure boxes:
If you don't press the button, no blue box will appear:

Oh wow. I'd never noticed that before - thanks!

It has a meaning? I thought it was a social experiment!
I guess fear (and later, routine) makes you miss things.

I once saw a thin pathway like that in a Graveyard:

In going to assume this came out with the newest patch.
Thanks for lettin us know!

I confirmed that this pathway is new, part of the latest update. Check any youtube video of D27 (from before yesterday, obviously) and you won't find it there.

No the map has been changed, look at 53:12 here, it didnt have it, at least not as clear as now (maybe it was obscured?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NmxtcbJezs

Hey... wonder if there are any other new hidden places in other levels now.

*watches the screenshot*
Would you give me some crowns :D

I always thought it was the door bell to Vanaduke... and that if we were to hit it he would allow us to bring him a fruit basket and then we could have a nice picnic in the garden in the town square next to Monomi. But I guess I was wrong.... *sad face*

Cool!
My old thread said it did nothing but this is confirmed a new feature!
thanks OOO!

I'm more interested in how you acquired all those crowns and CE.

Hah! Nothing slips past you all! Good job on being thorough explorers! :-)

great, too bad i keep forgetting the ghost block after all that fighting :(

man i hoped no one would ever find out or atleast not post it on the forums T_T

Not True.... we still haven't found Nick's secret 10.... or did we?

i havent actually seen the switch, someone screen shot it for me

I think its in the 4th level of FSC, at the beginning. The stairs split to either side, and you have clear out some shadowfire blocks to reach the party button at the top. The button itself is at the top of the stairs, on the right side of the doorway, hidden under a crate.

It used to disable alpha wolvers from spawning in the totem room
At least, it did in the 10 test runs knightmare did of the button on/off

That was disproven, many times, by many people.
Any "effect" you saw in your test runs was purely coincidental.
Prior to the latest update, it did absolutely nothing.
