Ideas to make the forum are welcome, can always check ouy yhr thread on the general boards for that.
Cant wait for the buddy keys!!
We will have to get a bug in their office to hear what ideas these guys come up with. 


Sounds good as normal.I've figured it out. Cheerleading = favors = namechanges = moderator sanctioned spamming!

And you have seriously gotta quit spamming these boards for post count and pet status. There is seriously nothing informative, inquisitive, or ingenious about that post.
As to this "insight into the development of the game," well. . . .it's not. Just wondering out loud here but, since this is Raijin's only responsibilty with this game, shouldn't we expect a little more? I mean Walrus had two separate major responsibilities, and still took the time to keep us better informed than this. Because it is, after all, the only place we can get the official word about the health of the game, future developments, the people in charge, acknowledgments of problems, etc etc. . .
I post because i have something to contribute, the mods and admins dont see my posts as spam, they all contain legit and decent contributions. if they didnt they would be removed and i'd have had a warning by now or something, which i havent. Most people dont see my posts as spam.
If you got a problem with it then simple "Report it" end of it.
More so , if youve got a problem, PM me!

Yeah, I can see why that would be, since you've only been here all of what, 10 minutes?
Which one are you even talking about? 'Cause if it's Havo, then don't sweat it. . .his skin's thicker than most. Besides, he knows he is doing it, and we know he's doing it. I got nothing personal against him, but I said what I said 'cause I'm tired of like every third post being his thoughts on the two posts before it.
If it's Raijin you're concerned about, well, look at the difference between the OSOTLG and the TTLG and tell me you don't see a major, glaring difference? It is the one place we get the official behind the scenes word about this game. No where else. I'd like to see more. If he comes back and says, "dude, I'd tell you more but that's all they tell me," I'd be a little easier going about it. It's just the way I understand it, they separated the jobs so that more focus could be put on those jobs. So far, these TTLG's don't represent a focused effort to me.
The truth is better than "wai2go, Uroxorz!!!11!!+1" anyday. Besides, this is just my opinion, right?

community isssues?
soe issues?
i know that a lot of people, mainly gamers are going to have something negative to say about this post, but at this point, im like whatever...
i have been playing matrix online since it went live, the only real major upgrade i have seen was cr2.0.
buddy keys? lol
ummm , i suggest that we all realize that the matrix online is with soe now and they boast about being a leader in the gaming world and i would like to see them prove it. stop saying that and show us that the company is what it say it is.
community issues; i am in the community and i want more than info about what is happening with players inside the game or live events.
i want expansion paks which include levels 51-101, new districts, more open doors in the while hallways, more comstructs, and improved graphics.
i know soe has the manpower to do such things, they have the technology and the money to get it done.
this is how they can do it
create a special project team for matrix online; 25-100 game developers to take apart the code, redesign it from the ground up; polish it, re-write the trees to include new levels, new abilities and such then u put it on disk and package it.
then u create the endgame/crash of the existing matrix complete with a serious live event
after which soe will ship the expansion pak to stores so people can purchase and you call it...
matrix infinity (or just version

So truth be told, The Matrix online is not the only community that I manage. PlanetSide and to some extent Pirates are also my responsibility (I think I've mentioned I manage PlanetSide a little while back). That does not exactly affect the information that I'm able to post about though.I believe the major difference is that Walrus did have that producer hat on and he knew everything going on in MxO and he could easily write about that. I don't happen to be in those same shoes so the articles are not going to match up, that's also partly why the change in the name of the article -- to signify that they are 2 different articles.
I know everyone wants to hear things about development and I'll do what I can to get that information out in TTLG but remember it's not always going to be the same information as you've seen in the past and it most likely won't be as abundant.
Pirates has a community?

...Actually they do have a pretty neat community there. It's a trading card game, but a bunch of the players chipped in for a "common pool" so that new players can get a few more cards to round out their decks. That's the first time I've seen that in an online trading card game -- it's also pretty dang neat that they thought to do that.
Pirates has a community?
you know what....I COMPLETELY AGREE...."The Matrix Unlimited" (be almost the same just improved graphics,add server stabability,one or 2 new servers, new abilities,animations,clothes,looks,tatoos,hair,colors,etc.) because I know for a fact that SOE has the man power to do....besides look at swg if they can change it upgrade/add to it that MUCH then i know they can spare some ppl to add more to MxO its a awsome idea just needs a makeover. (i love it as it is but u know its like say o ya i love my house as it is but you know i could spend X amount of money and have even better house)community isssues?

Lets bring him out guys, this will act as bait:

PS. I am not hating on Mr Joel if thats what you think...


GF, nice 1 v 1, all me son!
Why, exactly, has it been so hard to get the Buddy Keys up and running? Surely there is a thread somewhere about this, however the search "feature" isn't worth a *CENSORED*.Yeah it's partly coordinating with marketing and getting all the approvals, it takes a bit of time and we're pretty close here.
*sigh*
uhh....SOE...no offense to any one at SOE but, ya I've played nearly every MMO you've made Except for EQ/EQ2...and I KNOW! THAT YOU GUYS/GIRLS at SOE can do a hell of alot better....IDK if its just cause you want to phase this game out (which would SUCK BALLS!!!) or what but you need to put more ppl on the DEV team for MxO take some away from others that have an excess of DEV's...SWG they have like 3 animators...and MxO doesn't even get 1!!! and Vanguard...once agian No offence but, only ppl who can spend about $4,000 on a new computer (or have already spent that on one) can play I know i got it when it came out (*CENSORED* 9+gig download) and i couldn't even play it with a brand new graphics card 2 gig's of ram and a new proccessor......i had to play it on lowest possible settings with no sound and only got bout 10fps at max....so PLEASE SOE ethier remake this game or Revamp it or just add more dev's....EXSPECIALLY AN ANIMATOR!!!!! we have begged for new abs but that can't happen because of animations, we've begged for new areas..needs an level designer (idk if we have one or not). but come on plz plz plz plz plz plz plz Revamp/make/update(major update)/add an expansion to this game.
Sincerly,
Kektari.
Someone made the whitehall area and things havent changed since then as far as i know.we've begged for new areas..needs an level designer (idk if we have one or not). but come on plz plz plz plz plz plz plz Revamp/make/update(major update)/add an expansion to this game.
Sincerly,
Kektari.
ok , thats some info i didnt know either so soe doesnt even get credit for the white hallways, they just decided to implement it finally.
jeez!
ok , i know the guys at dn1 are not the problem; it is soe itself; i need to find out just who to talk to, i mean who is the executive in charge of the entire soe division?
cause he needs an eduacation in common sense; you have to spend money to make money. who was the guy who decided to buy matrix online but layoff the peoples it takes to run it effectively; like it deserves to be run.
he should resign now, because he is not getting it. it isnt about money ; it is about understanding something and relating to it.
if you are not a gamer ; you do not need to be in any position where you make decisions regarding games; thats the bottom line.
i think i get it; soe bought matrix online because of greed; they wanted something and matrix online came with the package but now; i think soe has a responsibility. i think they need to rise to that responsibility and begin upgrading the thing they didnt want. it is obvious that they are not doing that and appears that no one really cares at soe so who is paying for it.
i am, and there are many people like me who are paying. we are customers and if you begin alienating your customers, you wind up like walmart, a large sluggish company that has a bunch of crap and is now losing more money that they make.
all i ask is that you take care of the games you have online; is that so much to ask?
do you really want the reputation that when u aquire a game; you kill it. you already have that rep , believe it or not? if you do not turn it around soon; people will get hip and you will scare away more people than u atttract...
thats a fact!
The Matrix Online will never get any better than it is right now. SOE will not being investing any more money than it has been for the last year and change, because, well, they don't have to. This game is, and has been, 'making do' with it's current form and function, regardless of obvious areas that are severely lacking in content and function. If you think I'm wrong, reflect on the last year. If you still think I'm wrong, reflect again. CR2 was it.
Also something to take into consideration- SOE is a company. They base their decisions on profits, logistics and projection. You base yours on emotion.
or just leave it deadit was one of my senarios!
i give up then
Just an observation.
Carry on.
