This is just an idea i had that could make the game a bit more fun, i have no idea how it would be implemented but anyway this is it. What if an alerts system was built into the game so that players, whether they're in game or jacked out would be alerted to the presence of an LET or LESIG player in game. I know this really increases the possibility of noobs (like myself!!) swamping an appearance of a major character in game but it could be tweaked to avoid that happening. First of all the player will have to at least be at their computer if not in game for to know about it (obvious, but it cuts down the numbers) Secondly the alert doesn't have to say WHERE the player is, just that they're in the Matrix. OK there's about a 90% chance that theyr'e at Mara C but that's up to the character- this could even lead to "Hide and Seek" style mini events, where players have to search for a character and get a reward for finding them. Thirdly, the alarm could be org specific- the player has to choose whether they want to see Zion, Mero or Machine characters- other characters such as the Oracle and Cryptos could be open to everyone. Fourthly the alarm could be toggled by the character- if they want to just make an appearance or a speech isn't the idea to get as many people as possible to hear it? But if they want a more discreet meeting they could have the option to switch it off so they don't get swamped while having a private conversation. Overall I think this would be a good way to get more of us involved in the storyline- I've yet to meet a character in game, and with a lack of live events proper since the Assasin it might be good to give a few more of us a chance to get involved more.
