Let's go back to basics, shall we? 1) The Matrix is a prison. People are incarcerated in jelly-filled pods with bodies being force-fed the liquified remains of the dead, while their minds are force-fed a lie by a computer. 2) The Machines...
This is a legit question; Retro ain't gonna flame you. . .heh, at least I don't think he will. My opinion is that what Morpheus said in the elevator leaving the Le Vrai was less about their current situation and more encompassing. He said,...
As captain of the HvCft Rocinante, and on behalf of my crew, I endorse this manifesto. To all who would know what EPN is truly about, here are the answers you seek.
PK brought up a good point in this thread about Neo waking up in the Mobile Ave train station. What if it wasn't an accident? What if his counciousness was unceremoniously 'booted' there when he tried to reach the Source in the Real? I'm t...
Hmm. . .I forgot about the "truncating decimals". In that case, yes, resistance clothing is much more important to lower level players. However, if you can find both in an item, such as in the launchers, it couldn't hurt!
I don't think so. When I was grinding org rep, I ran missions on easy/small and got maybe a third of the cash I was used to getting on hard missions. This was after hitting 50.
Thanks Response! I've asked, but no erm. . .response. (lol, pun only somewhat unintended) Seriously though, I think this is a good, thorough tutorial (that I worked hard on!) and I think that useful stuff like this should get stickied. /en...
In order to play a hacker effectively, you must have accuracy bonus clothing and you must learn to use viral defense downgrades. Until then, it gonna be hit or missmissmissmissmiss.
Not to mention the fact that it's pretty much sci-fi canon that screwing around with people's memories usually tends to have disastrous effects; memory 'ricochets' that cause madness, total memory failure, total recall, recall ending in ca...
Hmm, I remember there being a thread about this not to long ago on the Matrix Universe board. I don't think we were able to work anything out; it ended up (like so many other things here) as a "play it how you want to" kind of deal. I woul...
I. . .I am stunned. Total loss for words. There is simply too much in that work to comment on. Please, make a pdf version for download, Py. That's one for the history books. Dear Lord, so much talent. . .

Wow, tattoos and all. Cool beans! This is an outstanding addition to the game.
Resonations The cockpit of the Rocinante was dark, with only two small, dimly glowing lights from the deck to illuminate the way out to the passageway. There was no light coming in through the windscreen because it was pitch black outside,...
I think the programs can lie, but choose not to because that would debase them to the emotional, human level. The Architect would consider lying beneath him. And for the Merovingian (and others in his employ) it is more like a game to avoi...
Don't you remember anything from Jurassic Park man? "Life finds a way. . " lol, jk. Really though, the planet isn't completely dead, or the Machines would be working on a way to leave. With sunshine, terraforming, and other as yet undiscov...
It's a great idea, GG, and it's kind of inspired me to do my own little desktop project. But, just for some useful feedback, the bullet-ripple effect really works best when it is see-through (i.e. with a background that will be broken up b...
Sorry for the necro, but just wanted to add to this thread that I repaired my Awakening Glasses tonight, finally after months of trying. Level 50 repair items ability, jacket with repair items 2pts, and Coder buff. Glasses repaired to full...
Some insight? I do hope that was facetiousness. The Broken EP was one of Trent's best works. Full of angst and pain, you can really feel the emotion of this album. I agree, though, "Happiness in Slavery" does sum up the lives of bluepills...

Fractor, I would think the Machines would respect those wishes as it means a "happy sleeper", if you get my meaning. Redalibi, I didn't mean you to join the Cyphs, just go to them for reinsertion. Rainking, as always, you argue for the sak...
Let's say you decided that Redpill life was too dangerous, boring, cold, whatever, and went to the Cypherites for reinsertion. Would you want a mindwipe to forget ever being extracted (with happy, content memories in place of the old ones)...
The following is an advanced tutorial for playing music through your ingame radio. I borrowed heavily from the radio tutorial found at the MxO Vault ( linky for a more indepth version! ) Everything has been tested and works on my WinXP mac...
Does anybody know where I can find a copy of this on teh tinternets? I really don't want to pay $30 (with s&h) for one 10 or 12-page comic.
Awesome work Py, as usual. Sorry to 'break' your tutorial, bu I have a couple of questions: why use Curves to adjust the image, instead of simply using Contrast/Brightness adjustments? What does it do differently? And, what feathering do y...

This is Outstanding! Great visualization, and provides a practical solution to a glaring problem with the archived missions. I can see it already: teams of players getting together to take out the Assassin. Awesome!
Yeah, but that happened after they contacted Neo. At the beginning of the film, they were already observing him. What I would like to know is, when did they start watching Neo? More importantly, why?
yeah, but that still doesn't say how he picked Neo. What do you think it was? I think that Neo found Morpheus. When the film starts, Neo is already under surveillance and has been for a while. Later, Morpheus alludes to the fact that he kn...
How did Morpheus know that Thomas A. Anderson, aka Neo, was the One? What did Neo do that set him apart from any other potentials? And how did the Agents in the beginning not know?
Could you imagine what would happen to this game if it were released that the Brothers W were getting actively re-involved with the game again, albeit for however brief a time? Hell, nearly every old player would likely return just on the...

That's right Sis, and you can never leave it either! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, MxO! Thanks for all the hard work, long hours and fun!
I LOL'd when he showed up to find snowmen covering his island.
Better than you trying to eat live animals.

Hmm. I'd be forced to agree with this, for sheer numbers sake more than any other reason. Consider that the greater Tokyo area, which includes the city itself and all the surrounding metropolitan area, has a population of 35 million. 1 bil...

One thing that has always bothered me about Player Events (PE's) is how easily the story is broken by the PvP aspect. I am not saying that PvP has no place in a PE, quite the contrary. I think it is absolutely necessary! To me, a good PE w...

Fools. Once again, the Podhuggers show themselves for what they truly are, the traitors of humanity. When the Prophet returns, you Cypherites will have an opportunity to renounce your affiliation with the traitors. He who chooses to side a...
Seis, it's good to hear from you! Somebody will be in contact soon (if they haven't already) and we'll get you fixed up. In the meantime, check out our new (although still a little unfinished) faction site @ http://matrix.hax.nu . You can...

Rarebit, Can we get a database export text file on the clothing items, so that we can construct a player-supported database? Thanks!
Wow, thanks Y. Awesome work. Very mind-numbing to read though. This one is going to take some work.
Wow, large aquatic mammals can watch Looney Toons? "I say, boy, I say what the aich - eee - double hockey sticks is up with that?" On a side note, I'm not sure many people remember the big rooster, Walrus. (Man, there were so many things w...

The emphasis is on power: who wants it and who has it. She alluded to the fact that, right now, the Machines have the power. And want more. She also practically came out and said that the Machines solution, killing Anome , may not be the b...

OK, I'll admit that I suck at PvP (there, happy? ) So maybe you guys can 'educate' me on what I'm doing wrong? Belief and Reason at 30 (with a couple of points in Perception and Vitality), every clothing item is level 50 with outstanding b...
Agreed. IL is death for a hacker. The basic strategy is to root/hack/stun/hack, rinse and repeat.

How about, "Because we choose to" Cypherite? Just because you'd rather sleep than fight, doesn't mean that what we do isn't right. It just means you're lazy and afraid. I once fought beside you. I have no qualms fighting against you. Stay...
