Yep, I'm going to leave the game, no it's not because of you all (the players, Rarebit; Virrago, 9mmfu and Walrus) it's because of the continued bad customersupport and bad serverlag that goes through on *all* of SOE's game's their entire business strategy is screwed and vile, (and I refuse to keep supporting that kind of behavior in the mmo industry) and I speculate that members of the original LET MXO team at times is/or were unhappy with the license falling in the hands of SOE, some might see this as a NightTrace post and and I'm sure this post will be removed for speaking negatively about SOE and their business policy of having the cheapest servers for their games to make the highest profit from each account subscribed, anyway without further a-do I am out, it's been fun guys, seeing all the pvp and this game was one of my first MMO's (Anarchy Online was subbed a few days before that, SMILEY) But yeah.. MxO stuck for over three years, and it's solely because of the efforts from LESIG and Rarebit at keeping the game interesting. So when the sub runs out I'll be out of the Matrix for good.

Cya all in a game from another company.

I've played this game from the very beginning believe me I can understand your frustration. Yesterday for the first time I tried an  MMO that i have ever played and as I kept exploring areas and seeing of the  things you can do all I kept think was:"If only MXO had this.........."
#36300495890 09/07/2008 07:50:38 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
Noes! Do keep in touch Syn makes me sad to see another vet of the community go.

Exactly, Crowlos.. exactly! SMILEY 1st time MMOer's look around see what's out there and get to play another MMO for a while and see what exactly you're missing, because there's so much more going on out there things that MxO could have had it just been another company that had signed the title that is not the case so that's why I'm leaving.

You should leave too, and show that you want more from the company that what they provide as "enough". (new servers that don't lag would be a minimum) - Revolution baby, Revolution.
#36300495896 09/07/2008 08:01:54 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
So show your support for the game you wish could be vastly improved, instead of quitting in defiance of the company which would need more subscribers to perhaps one day facilitate a budget-review (pipe-dream, yes). 

Seems a little overly, but 'tis entirely your prerogative.  Good luck.
#36300495899 09/07/2008 08:05:26 Re:And so another leave, take care all...

Oh No! Syn!

*Understands where he is coming from*

Aww another great player lost.

Make sure you either come back and visit or stay in touch!

You will be greatly missed on Vector!

It's not consumer bases perogitive to show support for a game and system that passive aggressively decides how much support its going to show for it on a daily basis. You cant expect people to be motivated and positive when the actual staff cant even be some days for good reason.

With that said it really sucks to see you leave man. You were prolly one of my best freinds in game and through the years have always been a blast to play with dude. I hope you eventually come back but if not keep in touch on Xfire heck I may even play Warhammer now with ya since you wont even be around in MxO.
#36300495907 09/07/2008 08:27:12 Re:And so another leave, take care all...

you will be missed.

#36300495909 09/07/2008 08:31:56 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
Thanks Mr. T. SMILEY It's been a ride up and down in this game for sure.

I'll leave you to think about this one y'all. The best to you all where ever you are.

#36300495926 09/07/2008 09:47:21 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
The crowd was stunned SMILEY G/L Syn your gonna be missed
#36300495934 09/07/2008 10:28:36 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
Awww no SMILEY

It's sad to see you go hun, you're going to be missed by all the community, it's not going to be the same.
Good luck with the future SMILEY

Correct, it's not the prerogative of the consumer to do anything but buy the product.  My point was that it seems a little superfluous to leave based on the reasons stated.

It is the consumer's prerogative to quit, however, and 'tis a shame to see another go.  I reiterate my prior good luck.

Thanks, ex. and I understand where you're coming from as well, but I've been subbed on this game for 3 years straight on more than one account and I see SOE milking me and y'all for very little content and lack of server quality, so as I said I'm just quitting on that notion and that's not aimed at the Dev.. ugh.. the one and a half we got. Deep respects to Rare and Dracomet, but it's just business as usual from SOE, and I'm going to a game (Warhammer Online) where the Dev's actually got time to play with the players and isn't under constant pressure to deliver content because they're not understaffed and so on and so on... Rare sitting and fixing animations a year and a half after cr. 2 was implemented.. um.. ???  That's 10000 aminations, man! See where I'm coming from? The only way it can get better is exactly to quit, I mean if there was hired another Dev so Rare could actually focus on his story and his art and the Live events could be alot more interactive.. I mean ffs he even had to close the ask a dev thread because of time issues, so... yeah.. I don't condone a company which is as big as Sony that isn't supportive of their customers or the personel working for them.. um yeah that was it.  /endrant. Keep ya head to the sky! Bless Ya.
#36300495998 09/07/2008 12:48:04 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
Syn,

I can genuinely say that out of all the goodbye threads ive seen... this one filled my heart with sadness.  I have a lot of respect for you and can understand your frustration.  I too at times feel that way but i just overlook it and get back to my college homework.  I have resigned to the fact that MXO will have extremely slow development.

I enjoyed all our talks and interaction within The Matrix and will miss your RP and RP humour.  A lot of people didnt get what you were about but I did.  I am proud of your love for The Matrix property and its just sad to see someone *a vet* that cares about the story dissappear from the MXO Universe.

Good luck on the other game, I heard GT is leaving WOW and going over WHO.  Alas, for me i only have time for one MMO and it's this one....and am waiting on Diablo III.  On top of that, college work, plus full time job... doesnt leave me enough time for another MMO if i want to excel in what i have on my plate.  Maybe ill check it out during winter break....

I do hope you come back in two weeks like someone above mentioned....

/bowhead,

...

Syn, I don't usually write too much in these things... but darnit, this really sucks you are leaving! You have contributed a heck of a lot to RP over the past three years, and have always been a friend to ML, even after you went Merv SMILEY

I remember all those duels with you when you thought you simply weren't good at the game... then you fixed your coneection issues and BAM! You got really d4mn good!

I'm sorry to see you go and I wish you well in your future endeavors.
#36300496093 09/07/2008 16:02:11 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
I'm not completely gone just yet, but.. I just had to let ya all know how I felt about the situation the game is in, and it's in NO way the players fault. This resides soley with SOE and I don't even think Walrus got much to do with it, or Rare for that matter, it's a business decision from the board not to fund the game and make it what it was even before I came along with my little noob Syn SMILEY Oh the days I've been told about with Niobe or Morpheus coming up to you somewhere out of the blue and asking you to get ready for a quick meeting half and hour later or running into the Assassin just out taking names, I mean.. those days are gone and even though I never were a part of those days I know that EVERYONE that was would love to have them back and still misses them (because frankly that was next generation MMO's right there (apparently SOE wasn't willing to try that though.)... and LESIG is doing what they can with what they got, deep respects to the players taking the time for no pay at all.. *cough* yet another issue that I won't get into as I'm getting close to the *snip* *snip* by them mods., but at the end of the day it's Warner Bros' license and they have apparently decided to (Unlike Lucas Arts) not support the title with a big funding, I personally don't see how you can treat a triology which was so big in 2003 and even a philosophical one about what we percieve as real... guess that's why I'm a teacher and not a big shot in Hollywood, huh?

So guys, you won't see me out just yet, but you'll just see a lot less of me, the last month I got left... as I'll be *elsewhere*.

Thanks for all the kind replies guys, btw SMILEY
#36300496099 09/07/2008 16:36:49 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
Totally sucks. I mirror the sentiments left by everyone else. I hope you reconsider and remain with us.

It will be a shame to see you go, particularly because this is in reaction to SOE. :'(

I really know how you feel Syn..My computer can handle Crysis on highest detail but for some strange reason it can't handle a server,that most of the time is on low!!As you said,it's the servers!And unfortunatelly they are not very friendly to EU people!But i refuse to leave..
I'm really sad that you have to go.Take care...
#36300496151 09/07/2008 21:04:53 Re:And so another leave, take care all...
Thanks guys! and tony I know what you mean. :/

They're on low and we got that wierd lack of control over the chars it even gives some people headaches - now I'm immune though... SMILEY give this game new servers, Virrago! if anything then give MxO players top class servers that can run the game as it was supposed to be run. (when I sit and watch old clips of movement from closed beta testing on youtube the servers there has no lag on the moves and the game seems so smooth)

Come on what other game can you hyperjump in and also have close combat. We all love to hate SoE but at the end of the day, the game is still running. I don't think sayin buy new servers or i'm quiting is gonna work unfortunatly.

Sad indeed Syn to loose a fellow RPer. You know how to get a hold me though so keep in touch and update me on your latest games.

Even though I have only interacted with you mostly since you turned Merv you were always one of the ones I enjoyed RPing with. I think we saw eye to eye on alot of things too.

I tend to agree. The only other comparative contemporary MMO out there for remarkable 'powers' is CoH/CoV. And I've played them to death. But there's something special about MXO, I've come to learn. I can't put my finger on it, but I think it has something to do with the gritty realism - ironic as that may sound - of the premise.

So. Taking a break is always a good idea. But you'll feel a stirring in the blood soon enough, and you'll find yourself swallowing a red once more. And it'll still be here for when you do. SMILEY

Syn, my dear...you cannot go !! It is forbidden. It would be like Vector is losing an arm or a leg without you !

Unfortunately, even if we all upped sticks and left, SOE would only stand and wave our sorry butts goodbye....

So broken servers and broken game ftw !!

Play on !

I'll agree with Brucey here. MxO has it's flaws, and we're all aware of it, and we're all aware of the lack of funding that it recieves and yadda yadda. But we're all still here, a lot of us are still here from Beta. Simply because we love what this game stands for, and what it is; Different.

Different from the generic MMORPGS with elves and cavemen with big swords or bows or the normal boring stuff.

And those reasons, are exactly why i'll be here till the bitter end
