I'm going to try to do something I haven't for awhile, I'm going to try through this thread to get through to SOE, others can help me if they like but my words will more or less have the most impact in this thread.
I've come to the conclusion that MxO is indeed being killed off, Rarebit's new approch is the cause. I'm not saying rare is to blame for this, I'm simply saying that I think this new approch of his is alittle off. As I have stated in another thread, I feel like MxO, which has been my 1 and only online game for 2 years is losing my intrest. I mean, really, why did you kill off live events in a game where they mean so much to the community?! I mean it was something to look forward to, and while we waited for one to happen, we pvped, rped, dueled or just stood around, oh and farming lol don't forget farming. I mean I cannot understand why SOE wants this game dead, it's a great game, and it's still got a story to unfold, mind you, lately, the story has been garbage, no offense to whomever is writing it, but it's not very fun. I remember back in the day when we would wait around for random things to happen, new threats to the simulation to come out and just attack people, I remember when the live events were so awsome you could bearly hold yourself back when they were over.
Now adays however, you give us content with a story that doesn't even back up the content. You give us a game where there is 1% interaction with the community and 99% npc related farming. Imho this is not what you should be doing to this game, you are treating mxo, just like you always have, as a second hand game and now you treat it as it's not even worth selling this game for 10 bucks! I'm sorry, just alittle frustraited. I remember when this game had a certain element to it, a certain vibe, that no other game could even come close to, but lately that vibe has nearly gone completely, and I myself am so close to hitting the unsubscribe button... I don't want to do this, but unless something is done, unless at least something intresting happends inside of the matrix, I will have to.
If you really, really cannot do live events anymore, for whatever reason, be it because you have other work to do, then why not let the players do their own live events, with the story charactors?
Devs, I'm giving you a chance to help this game, do something for it, I understand everything needs to be approved cause it is your job but might I suggest looking to the community to hold dev powers from now on, Give veteran players that know the story, that know how to rp good, give them the LE charactors and let us make our own story. Give these players the ability to run live events and make npcs outa thin air, I mean what could go wrong? Most of us here love this game, and we don't want to see it die, so why not let us help? We play this game for the interaction, not for the bs content that isn't even helpful in pvp. We play this for the real story the unfolding of the Matrix story, not some (no offense) halfa$$ed writen story that someone just wrote down once and didn't even really think it through.
Give these chosen players the ability to reward the community through there own live events. Most of us, even myself when I'm not working would be willing to do this for this game. We would be willing to help this game and you wont give us the oppertunity.
Think this through SOE, it could help this game in the long run, making players that love the game into devs that pay you to do the job you wont pay others to do seems like a pretty good offer. And unless I see some kinda response to my offer, some kinda, "we will think about it and get back to you" kinda comment, I will leave this game. And I'm sorry but this isn't really even alittle fun anymore, it's a waste of time unless something is done, it's a waste of my time to just farm random content and watch a story that isn't even remotely intresting unfold...
I, YOUR VALUED CUSTOMER, DEMAND YOU TAKE THESE WORDS TO HEART! Because if you don't, if you just ignore me like you have been doing for 3 years!!!! I will take my hard earned money elsewhere! And no, not to any SOE games, you don't value us as customers, you value us as suckers and I'm sick of it, give us what we want, a game where we are the people and we have some pull in where this game goes, otherwise, it wont just be me leaving, you wont have anyone playing this worthless shell you have left us to walk aimlessly in...
And I am through.
