I have been recieiving the DE newletter keeping tabs on things even if i had no real intention to return.... I must say I am very impressed with the efforts Manatic and DE have continued put into MxO its not something you see very often an...

PvP is free for all now???? Why?

Thank you for revealing these secret, hope to see some of those effects i have never seen before at last.

I dont think its right to suggest any real connection between MxO and the Agency, it seems yet another in an incoming barrage of mmo's that want to label themselves 'action mmo's - which seems to translate as mmos that are dumbed down to t...

Well I made it to the forums at least...good to see so many of the old names/faces turning up ^^

Input that Euro server hmmm :p Though I am not a vet...so if its animal surgery you are after I don't give any garantees.

It is nice and surprising to see so many familiar names still around when you pop back for a bit.... The real world doesnt have to be a desolate remnant of some past war to make you want to pop back into the simulation (or at least the for...

Recently got the Blu-ray version of the Trilogy....its got the trailer for the mmo on it.... so much potential and so many progressive ideas many of which still havent been properly attempted in any other mmo - but ideas and concepts I am...

Disguise myself as Walrus, walk down the corridor to the Agency room and tell them to spend some time on MxO a decent game with some deeper appeal than the souless run around fps thingy they have wasted their time on :p

Merge the servers and make downtown Hostile designate a club to each organisation and fill the looby area of each and surround it with a force of high level npcs that only attack the other orgs to create a form of base. Make other downtown...

Possibly more than vaguely off topic, but reading the stuff SoE are putting out about DCUO and its approach to storyteling and making the player a part of the DC Universe...... its a severe case of Deja Vue from those promises made for Mat...

Morpheus and to a much lesser extent the Oracle are key figures that should be in the gameworld if it is to encourage and stimulate new players to involve themselves in rp and storylines....its just marketting potential (and wow factor) th...

Hmmm no stay puffed marshmallow man anyways. The community makes the game, the devs can only work with the resources alloted, the resources alloted are goverened by the number of subscribers QED! I havent been impressed with any MxO conten...

I think read and accepted by the W bros is likely an acronym for sent to their secretary, checked by the legal dept for IP violations with regard to the original contract and rubberstamped and returned. But in any event the story was deali...

I don't think it matters what parts of what story you like or dislike, what is done is done and the most assured fact is that those particular storylines have no possible way to develop or resolve themselves... even with another dev on boa...

Ah well errr, I guess that explains it BTW is it my shaky memory or was there a technical issues section to the forum once?

I was hoping to join in but an odd patcher error had different thoughts =/ Anyways looked like a lot of old school fun, grats to those involved and all the best to Mr Rare

I think player led storylines can work as long as they restrain themselves within the confines of the medium they can effect. Material changes and even smaller player understood changes cannot be communicated in the manner that 'one offici...

I wanted to say thanks to rare, for the many many good times with MxO, so it was worth a resub. As regards the upcomming event, tbh I can barely remember how to play I find it kinda hard to 'go home again' so I'm not sure I will actually f...

The issue is not where the story could have or should have gone, its a case of delivering a story that works on the canvas that is an mmo. Books, films and games are three different mediums, the manner in which the story is told depends on...

Chapter 8 was actually where logic and continuity was sacrificed and any influence and continuity with the original trilogy was lost. The Matrix online is a persistent MMO with unavoidable restrainst that the story has to work withing or l...

The Official story needs to recreate or restablish the sceanrio that existed at the end of Revolutions (or one very like it) as it created the setting for the PERFECT MMO. At that point the focus of the story was on the Matrix itself (its...

Sad news indeed, despite my personal misgivings about the way the story was developing (apologies if I was overly vocal) I never ceased to admire the dedication, ingeniuity and skill you always showed this game and moreover the classy way...

Good post by Neoteny. We need to be able to convince ourselves events matter, we need characters we care about, we need to feel our character has some part to play (however minor) and isnt just simply a dialogue foil. We need both conseque...

I wish him well, his comic work is well worth checking out. His approach to MxO was very much to rewrite it, and present it as a story for us to read, perhaps that was his remit. Personally I didnt want or expect a new take on the Matrix a...

Fall my moans I always wish the best for MxO but I see the story having less and less significance, being seen and influencing fewer and fewer players.... Live events, these forums and player content are simply not seen by enough players t...

The look is consistent with the tone of the Matrix, I'd rather see a screenie of people in any variety of outfits than any amount of, fx leaking out of different body parts or wire frame planets orbiting a scene

Changing the behaviour of HJ affects every aspect of the game not just PvP. What are the real arguments Someone who HJ's can't be attacked...almost true of course, if they are quick but on the other hand nor can they attack anyone else.......

There are many significant similarities between the story here and what would be seen in a film, book or tv series but in each the medium is subtly different, the film of the book is never the same, and tv series have a much longer time to...

I am aware it might be a difficult idea to describe but I did try to make it clearer via the example content. In no way am I suggesting no reward should be offered, only that the nature of that reward shouldnt always boil down to item A th...

Seems to me the datamine functioned for a brief time because for that time PvP actually had some purpose and the confines of the datamine also drew together the small population into one place. However it is content that is discontinuous a...

Ejp is a process which remains credible while extraordinary degrees of cooperation exist between man and machine in the form of the truce and pretty much loses any credibility and screams 'this is just a game' when such cooperation ceases....

In this reality Colonel Sanders was promoted to lead the Machines before he invented his finger licking recipies, hence the whole fast food industry never existed.

Meh forum ranks what do they tell you about the posters? Lets keep it simple and have a universally understood set for all forums - Almost Mute, Restrained, Erudite, Gobbie, Loud, Downright Obnoxious seems to cover most eventualities

Someone probably had the same idea on their boards..... the results certainly don't seem indicative of community population

There is no physical way to present a credible war scenario in this game. A war storyline is the single most ridiculous and unconvincing direction to take MxO, it completely contradicts the restrictions of our own interface with the MMO wo...
