How many times have you hung out at Mara and thought 'Boy, I could do with a coffee.' How many times have you sat at Tabor with your belly rumbling? I'd like to see some shops in the Matrix - to add to the 'flavour' of the game. How about having a coffee-house on a street corner, or a bakery just down the street.? I'd like to be able to *CENSORED* into a shop to grab a snack and a soft-drink between missions. I'd like to see grocery stores that actually sell groceries. I'd like to see petrol stations with bluepills filling up their cars. I'd like to see the shopping malls finished. I'd like to see a weapon vendor actually in a gun shop. I'd like to wander into a shopping mall and take the escalator upstairs to buy my designer sunglasses from the clothing vendor.
All these things would make the Matrix more real and more fun to be in. Hopefully it would also give those bored level 50's something else interesting to do. Imagine getting an ice cream in the foodcourt and taking the elevator downstairs to the parking garage where you get jumped by enemy operatives. Imagine doing a 'mission' for your local pastry chef because he's all out of flour. I don't expect it to happen overnight, but a move in this direction would be more than welcome.
Features like this would add so much extra depth to the world and truly set the Matrix Online apart from other multiplay games.
