Amen. 
It should be good fun, though. It'll keep everyone occupied for a little while.

I havent spoken about this topic because I have been waiting- but now my guesses are becoming true to the previous posts.
This new construct will not change anything. It will only grab your attention for a moment or 2 and then everything will be as it was- As a PvP server and sadly even the non PvP servers- you face this fact alone- All you wish to do is fight. Fight each other- which is endless.
And through this endless battle of conflict you have allowed the creative minds to play you and let you believe you are getting what you deserve. Instead you've been led astray from the real points this game is hiding.
Much like the movie- the basis of control. Much like Rome, give the mob what they think they need and they will cheer for their Caesar. Believing that this little peice of land will make things better- it wont.
I will guess the first thoughts to be posted would be - "Jack has been one for demanding new content to the game- he's a hypocrite"
The thing is- Content comes with the demand to achieve. Very few factions demand that style of playing (atleast on Vector) and the only this will add is a small pinch of nostalgia mixed with Azn farmed commandos giving it 1 month of love.
Players will take what they need from this area and return to their Mara Central and continue their lifestyle.
You cannot deny this fate. You can't run away from it because you know deep down that Mara Central will always be the heart of the game and no one person or faction will ever change that. No matter how badly you want to- No Challenge- No Tournament. Absolutely nothing. The PVP community has engraved this server, this game to run soley on bickering that you have lost care for the enviroment itself.
The Enviroment will always be defeatable- Always Possible. Beatable and Never set to "Hard Mode" for our player Community. Very few (such as myself have asked for this) desire a hard mode AI. But instead the majority of players would rather have their RP seperate from their PVE and their PVE seperate from their PVP.
The Unthinking Majority (You) have made us this way. Thank you for continuing to allow us to be blinded into 3 years of whining about Class Balance(how to kill people) New Districts (where to kill people) and cheering for a storyline about War (constituting killing people)
I give you my thanks Community, it's the only burden we will bare in our ignorance. And like you should know. "Ignorance is bliss"

Yes more space, just what is needed with the rest of the city literally bursting at the seams, and obviously like other recent content it will fit perfectly with the ongoing story and the overall conviction of the Matrix as a whole.
Er dont take this the wrong way but whats your point ??? j/k

Well in my view it's going to be a good thing. A change from the npc spawn - farm type of content we've had for the last couple of years. Like the Area K, or the Corrupts. This time we're actually getting somewhere new to go, whether the rest of the Matrix is bursting or not is irrelevant.


i love my machines, id so mack out with rogan and spank brommys shaftlmao <3 saint.

Dont worry, when im in sneak ready to punt the NPC, i will make sure i dont have you targeted... honest xD
another thing im hoping for is its an all level place, yes for the lolz of ganking, yet it would be a good thing for lowbies to lvl, new people to have some good content to start up against

i love my machines, id so mack out with rogan and spank brommys shaftSounds hawt

Well not long now, soon everyone will be able to enjoy the explosion of freedom that permits them to freely attack the 8-10 players they haven't previously been free to attack, well unless they previously used the tiresome /duel option or even more tiresomely levelled an alt for the purpose of attacking their own org or they used the crew/faction bug when it was active to swap orgs and assuming of course the other people they want to attack go to the construct for the purpose of being attacked....... Soon the matrix will resound with the aimless, fun that is the neverending deathmatch.

I have to confess to sharing your concerns, Tytanya.
I'm disappointed that the construct is a FFA zone, and would've thought that merely permanent PvP would've been enough to satisfy the hardcore PvP'ers. FFA holds absolutely no interest for me, and I really don't see the point in it. Hurrah, wasting info on Master Shadow for multiple characters.
I also worry about what the game has become when something so huge is turned into an arena for constant, chaotic PvP, entirely to the detriment of the storyline.

Not to continue the roll of negative energy- Personally i desire FFA PvP. From my previous games Im just a pvper that doesnt need a RP Story to give me reason to pvp someone.
Here of course. Almost everyone thrives on it. The only way FFA pvp will work is if people who do have the guts to group with others outside of the Org.
Whatever content this zone will have- atleast everyone in the game can group up and do it together instead of segregating players by diety. I even heard Wrath of the Lich King will implement something along these lines (where Alliance and Horde can raid together). It simply restores the population as a whole instead of cutting it in half or in 3rds.
So Please upon this new zone in the game. Break out of your Org Only Shell and get to know the rest of the people on your server in a better way.
Some people may think "Its FFA- I can kill everyone" - I wouldnt think that, but keep your friends close.
And it is that word right there. "Friend"
What really defines the word "Friend?" Is it in words or in actions. Comrade, Ally, Friend, whatever word. For years now you have entrusted the people within your Organization to assist you in the heat of combat, and even Enviromental challenges. And you appreciate their help knowing that only good things can come from their presence.
But under FFA, I hope you will find out more about the people around you. It doesnt take a care to shoot down someone- it takes commitment and promises to assist those that mean something to you- your friends, your faction mates- whomever. And just because you see someone that is the same Org as you does not make him your friend (atleast in my opinion) Friendship, Comradary, Alliances come from people working together (of course the system would be set up for people to work only with the people from the same org) regardless of where they come from (country, religion, etc) and that the common goal for each party involved is to work together and achieve their goal.
The powers that be made you a zone that enables you to know more about the people you've played with. Do not sit with Tunnel vision and set your mind against "change." I shouldnt have to say it cuz everyone has friends on each side of the game. Know your friends and enjoy this break from Team PvP and let loose and go wild in FFA.
I suppose it is a negative view to express, but content for its own sake is far less valuable and has far less longevity than content that is consistent and complimentary to the story, this is why in all likelihood the construct could be a wasteland in x months. A lot of effort has clearly gone into this construct, and its technical achievement cannot be denied, but it illistrates a big problem with the philosphy behind the game, it is isolated and detached from any other aspect of MxO. Content and storyline are not developing together, they are doing their own thing and in and increasing number of cases one is actively contradicting the other. There is definitely a missing element whereby someone takes a wider view and says "hmmm yes thats a good idea but the consequence is to destroy that or make that other thing nonsensical, lets rethink it a little and integrate it fully then every aspect of the game will gain etc".
The contradictions currently being introduced do stack and isolate the gamer, the ability of the game to entertain fragments and divides, there is a lack of importance assigned to forging a convincing world, and without that we lose ambition and just end up running around shooting one another aimlessly.
It is ironic that in a game based on this particular franchise - death and killing have little or no support in the game, there is neither a worthwhile reward, nor a fictional story point, nor any reasonable explanation of why we should even atempt to stay alive......these are elements that need to be addressed and content needs to be produced that makes a point of us actually being aggressive, of learning our fighting skills far moreso than just providing a wider and more diverse set of people to kill.
Some kind of consistency has to be maintained as regards the integrity of the environment, our interface only permits us experiences in the Matrix, we work rest and play here, these elements have to have some credible valididty, if they do the reality of logging in is increased, our immersion by the game is increased and the threat and urgency of the world is enhanced.....in short everything we do becomes more meaningful and more challenging. This is what is needed from content and storylining, one should fuel the other, events that happen should leave scars on the city, major environment changes should likewise impact on the story.
Meh few will read this far, MxO has become a land where we just settle for anything or else give up on, the lack of conviction toward the Matrix is contagious, rather than argue somethings valididty the resonse is usually "awww forget it", "ignore that, its just a game", Spamalicious..... I suppose that covers pretty much any sin, but specifically in this case every server now has this construct, in essence the Matrix in hyper hostile form......where does that leave Vector?
