I also really like the Twins in events. Their ghost effect always is fun to see (haven't seen it personally though ). Although most had already speculated on it, Gray telling us Ouroboros is the Oligarchs makes things quite interesting.
These summaries always help, especially when away from the game for a short while. Just a few missed weeks and you don't know what the heck is going on. Anyway, I like the storyline pulling in businesses in MxO. That is one thing I always...
Ooh, very nice. I like Kybutra's dark style; also always love to see artistic takes on datamining. Hmm...I think I submitted something for this, but I can't remember. Guess I'll have to wait and see.
Hmm...I wasn't gonna post anything more today (sub runs out tonight), but this had me intrigued. One thing I do wonder with Ch 10-12 is if any slight changes will still be made, considering nothing like cinematics have to be made long befo...

Oh, come on. NT's last post made for the perfect final comment of this Producer's Letter. I'll also be interested what a year from now brings. Unless something drastically reduces numbers, SOE probably reassigns budgets once a year or so,...

It's true – in honor of the game's three year anniversary, the hugely popular 'Smith Virus' will return to The Matrix Online from March 20th until April 3rd
Hmm...to delay the death on Vector, Rare should make like four level 85's or so that must be killed before the level 100 even appears. Kinda like how the Assassin had to be killed on all servers to ultimately die.

The Agents spawning for Phluff should be lower levels, like 55 or 65. The lvl 255's only spawn with the 0.4 I'm pretty sure. Too bad I wasn't on earlier, I knew it was an item. I always remember Rare's posts. Don't always comprehend but....

Load Sector Length of Distance...probably certain areas with differing complexities have LOD's set with them to change separate of your normal LOD settings. EDIT: that's at least what I've always thought. That could be wrong though.

It's a great post and I agree with it. Some of the last few things happening with the game have given me the feeling the devs are trying to show us we are near our end. Virrago can keep telling us the servers won't shut down; that may be t...

The biggest thing we lose here is the "introduction" into each subchapter. I'm sure however that is handled will be interesting. Also, the Matrix's story has been primarily told through cinematic elements: the Movies, Animatrix, and now ou...

Heh, fighting an accelerated Ookami would've been fun. Halborn looked pretty weak. He was still looking for her though. Quite a persistent guy. He seemed to be speaking his mind a little clearer when hurt.
I was surprised I actually knew so many of the developers on there. I voted SOE. For this round, at least . I think some people might be confusing which Rockstar is against you guys.
