There is no other MMO that comes even close to providing the satisfaction of Interlock combat:

I never saw The Matrix in theaters, as I was only 13 in 1999. I remember watching it shortly after it's theatrical run at a friend's house and, of course, being completely entranced. This was the smart, philosophical action movie I'd been...

Since the MxO forums will be shutting down soon, I wanted to know if there's a particular fansite that the majority of the active MxO base will be using afterwards. Stratics and Vault seem to be dead, and Rumbaar is almost deserted from wh...

We should try to find some way of identifing each other in TOR. Unfourtunately, I don't think Bioware is programming /dap in.

My guess might be excellent or it might be crummy, but Mrs. Spade didn't raise any children dippy enough to make guesses in front of a district attorney, and an assistant district attorney, and a stenographer.

Yes, the addition of Sugaree's contact summaries would be awesome. The document is already excellent, I've already saved a copy to my keep-forever folder. Something that would be cool but perhaps difficult would be to include one or two sc...

Oh yeah, I'm ready for TOR now. Though I might dip into Star Trek Online just to check it out. TPaine [email protected]

A Corruptor-sized THANK YOU to Raijinn, Virrago and Walrus for riding this out for us and getting everything squared away. Reinstatement of everyone who resubscriped even after June 1st is more than I had hoped for.

I resubbed on the 29th, so it looks like at least for now those of us who came back after the invisible deadline are being reinstated.

Darn, they fixed my forum account...it was nice while it lasted.

Hey, I can post again! So at least something's being fixed...still can't jack in though. Raijinn, thanks for keeping us company and letting us know you're looking for answers as much as we are. You clearly understand the state of mind we'r...

Even though I'm "Jacked Out", I still retain my powers of posting, editing, and PMing! Using my powers outside of the Matrix is but the first step. The prophecy given by The Oracle fortells that I will lead the remnants of the MxO playerba...

Like many many other players, my MxO launcher is telling me that my station account doesn't include an active subscription to MxO, even though I was just jacked in earlier tonight.

I know it's in R.R. too, but I think most people are only reading General these days, so... I just jacked out, and now the MxO launcher is telling me I no longer have a subscription!

Holy s**t! I just logged off, saw this thread, and now I can't log in. Using the MxO Launcher, I've never had Station, and it's telling me my account doesn't have a subscription to MxO.

Getting Logic Cannon'd to death by Dare seconds after killing the Assassin. I felt pretty stupid.

Wait...other MMOs don't have two-person emotes? I guess I will miss that, then. I'll miss the sense of actually fighting that interlock gave us. I don't think there's another MMO out there that does anything but "click abilities and preten...

HA! I remember you. Nice work keeping the beta forums under control. Now, where's NullWhite?

No...no...do not invoke the name of the Bofadee. Welcome back Braids.

Post your 3 favorite screenshots of your MxO career: (1) Die, jack***: (2) I didn't take a pencil. Did you take a pencil? (3) Private debriefing:

Feelin' nostalgic for old MegaCity...and the cool new format for crits might just keep me here. Got a huge amount of storyline catchup to do (and probably farming...ugh).

Resub successful, patching finished... Yeah, I'll be there. -Paine

It's been a long time since I had some really good MxO RP. Too bad that's over Christmas break and I won't have my computer. Oh well, next time.

Beta? Beta? Beta? BETA? In all seriousness though, /cry.

Well hell, if you really don't have anything better to do: I'll take one stack of each of the Clothing Red Frags. Should be i$120,000 at quoted prices, give me a shout if it's different. No rush, I just hate to run out when I'm coding for...

As much as I enjoy Cartman, I'm always on the side of not angering the people you're debating with. Thus, my sig is changed.

I know, I'm just not in the habit of adding smilies to connotate my sarcastic statements. How about this one:

I don't think that...quite gets across the point we're trying to make, Roukan.

Anyone up for making a simple "support the Tetragrammaton" sig that we can all use for the next day or so? Would help get the message out to the rest of the boards.

The most consistent dueling pawnage I've ever witnessed was all of the vets in Tabor Park getting their asses handed to them by a Proxy Coder. I have no idea how to play one, or if it's practical at low levels, but I can say from experienc...

Not sure if Rare or Walrus will read this, but your forum ranks experiment has a little hitch. I'm sure someone on the team has noticed this, but just in case you're all too busy with important stuff, all of the live event characters are n...

Wait...did I detect a Firefly reference in that News title?

Really?! Um...could you post a screenshot of that?

Even though I'm not a Machine Operative, that still happens to be awesome. I vote Beachhead as one of the first recipients.

Ah, good point. I guess I just don't think of the Matrix as instanced when I'm in my RPing mindset.

Perhaps, you know, just maybe, the only reason no one on Syntax or Recursion "got it" is only because we didn't think to send the answer to another instance. Congrats to everyone who figured it out.

I regularally do over 1k damage with a plain Pistol Whip, at least against NPCs. They probably have lower resistances than players.

It's a trap! All squadrons come about to...uh, I mean... I just sent you one over on the GameFAQs board.

Once again, every time I click on any news item on DN1, I come up with nothing but a blank field. I know this happened to a lot of people including myself a little while ago. Is it back for anyone else?

Since I now have confirmation that this is a recent development, I'm bumping this to possibly get some Dev attention.

What the? I got to this by going to the Fileplanet homepage-->MMOG section-->The Matrix Online-->The Matrix Online Trial-->Get Our Key Here Why is it closed? I thought we were doing so well...now Phrog and I won't have any more newbies to...

I can't say I'm happy about the toning down of general NPC-weirdness. Added something interesting to missions. Other than that, looks like a seriously awesome patch.

I took this during Boxfest. I think it could make a really cool background/sig if it could be edited to hide the low-rez-ness and the damage numbers. Since y'all love to enhance screenshots, thought I'd drop it in here and see what happens.

Thought it was worth it to create a new thread. Anyway, not the best res graphics cause I turned them down to compensate for the lag. Still cool.
