suggestions for last event

     First of all I think it should be kept in mind that when the final event happens there will be a lag fest because of so many returning players. Someone mentioned this issue in a post I read a few days ago and it should be considered in the final planning of our last event so it goes well.

     As for a starting suggestion for our event:  I would like to see what happened years ago with the spawns showing up in mara C  and the sky change and so on....leading up to a final showdown of unlimits/corruptors/sleepwalkers..etc for the last few days of the Matrix and it might sound good for a end of the story chapter,  just thought I throw that out there for you all.

      I would really welcome some feedback on this topic so the Dev's will at least consider it ( or look at the topic), my fear is:  topic gets to complex and the dev's deside not to tackle the project and just do a easy event. I guess what i'm looking for here is a overall "agreed" idea(at some point within a week) solution for a specific ending, so the majority of players will like the ending.  Thankx all 

Based on the language in what we have been told, I'm expecting changes to the sky and random spawns based upon the event being represented.  Maybe NPCs controlled by Walrus et al based on that event as well (Security officers for the Blue Sky portion, Assasin clones for the Assasin portion, etc.).  I don't think there's going to be any storyline attached to the event, and honestly I kind of hope that is the case.  I wouldn't want to see an attempted 2 week (or less) wrap of up 4+ years of complex storyline just so things can end tied up with a nice pretty bow.  I'm not even sure I want an End Of Beta style cataclysm to end things off.. though I can't say I'd hate it either, especially seeing as how I wasn't in Beta and I missed it the first time.

They skin an agent onto a fly monster body, making it look stupid, but big. Then, when we defeat it, the Wachowskis come down and force everyone's computers on low-quality, and tell us how MxO's story sucked and it isn't canon. Then they laugh and say jokes on you and go home. Then a big black screen with "MXO" on white letters. Disconnect.

(Brought to you by sarcasm, because I know this is the MxO community)

You know, I swear I've seen something like this somewhere before... hmmmmm.

>_>

Maybe we can fight Mega-Smith? 

I would like to see a PvP event and a PVE Event

I'd like to see a repeat of the Goverment rooftop battle days before Rarebit left, with different representatives, The Merovingian,Agent Smith,Morpheus Sim,

And a Repeat of the Assassin event with eyes in the sky CR 2.0 Style, for the ones among the community that never got to experience it.

I think both should take place on the final two nights and everyone who turns up should be set to level 50 with all abilities if possible.

that's what i'd like to see anyway as these are the most memorable pvp and pve events for me.

for the PvP one this could count towards who actually won the war ;0

Gotta agree with that.  I'm not even a PvPer in the minor sense, but I really enjoyed the rooftop battle.

I don't think any of our input is going to be considered for the final event.

I'll take anything...I may have been reading into the post but it seemed like they were inferring some sort of multiple week build up...no clue what they may have really meant but honestly I'm not getting my hopes up about them doing anything.

If I can just sit on the dock at Ike with my friends while mxo closes down I'll be happy.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if this is the last we've heard from Walrus, and there ends up being no event at all.

"Oh, sorry folks!  I was busy with the Agency!"  ...kinda like his Producer's Letter.

That's what I was thinking.

If this endgame event has any story to it, it would be cool to have the Oligarchs involved.  Any weird or overly-powerful spawns could be blamed on them.

Illyria

I would suggest another Hunt for Stupidfly event lol

We got 26 pages of spam and flaming out of that bad boy

Major final epic world-ending event = Global Broadcast of the lyrics to "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley.

...You know, just to solidify SOE's opinion of us.

This ^^

Harpalos and I tried to get Rarebit to do this way back during a Mauser event to no avail.  Something about copyrights, blah, blah.  However the epic lulz would have been priceless. XD

You know I'd be content with seeing the Eyes in the Sky again.  Hostile messages on billboards.  Plus having Zombies, Yetis and Smithlings all at once.  Unlock everything.  Zombified Yetis infected with the Smith Virus ftw.

I suggest they release EVERYTHING they still haven't, wether it's not ready, helluva buggy or whatever, we don't effing care if it's that way. And THAT's a SMALL hint nuge nudge at powerplant district, Zen tree, Tojan hacker, etc.

That would be epic.

My hunch... we'll all lag out before we get to see the end... Seeing all of the people returning SOE may have to upgrade the servers before shutting them down

If SOE would have been smart, they would have prepared a "matrix online" single player version by now, and released it right after the shutdown. It would have been a massive hit because of nostalgia.

I think we should see an Oracle VS Neo duel...with hacker loadouts (or something equally ridiculous)...I don't know why, I just think it'd be hilarious for some awkward reason.

In reality I'm expecting end of beta skies, crazy-@ss spawns everywhere, a few faces popping in to meatwad and mess with the space-time continuium, and cake.

End of beta, but with more chaos, i am talking NPCs Vs. NPCs feel the world with spawns, hopefully to even outsides. Make something everyone stays for, maybe so many will log back in for it that SOE will consider reopening one server or making an MxO : Two done right

Return of The One?

Go out in style like TRL http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/...tabula-rasa.ars

Red skies for a couple of weeks, and slowly replace all NPCs in the game by mean lvl 255 agents.

"hyper-XP tokens that gave a 2000% experience point bonus," <- THIS :p

I would like to see it end like this.

We as the players go about the game in battles against other npc's like agents etc. Then little by little we will see the game its self decompile infront of us. The Npc's begin to dissapear then the building and cars untill your character is in nothing but a black background. Depending on what org a main character from your org should appear. For example EPN would have Neo. Then neo or who ever would say " Your battles and your efforts in the matrix will not be forgoten. It is now time for you to move on, you are needed else where. I can not join you on your new journy but I wish you luck" blah blah...you get the idea lol. Then the screen blackens out as if a TV was turning off then the end lol.

It could be interperated in many ways, for example where you shown a program for closuer just before the system crashes. They could make it seem as if the machines are whipping out the system shutting it down. I dunno but alot of people have posted good ideas so far!

You know, Fen, I find myself feeling like you're right about this.  OMG, it must be a sign of the end times!

Why would you want to kill loads of NPC's on the final day if this were to actually happen i think me and a few others would force flag you.

I just finished reading that.

Jesus my brain hurts.

lol  Other than the whole force flag issue    This is a good point.  The build up to the end would be great if there was some sort of resolution (or just end) and then a day or two to just be able to relax and take in the atmosphere one final time.

By resolution, I don't mean a story resolution as I still don't feel the end of game should have a storyline attached to it.

Yeah I dont want to waste time killing mindless ai scripts during my final days.  I'm not opposed to something like that generally but I dont want them spawning all over the place in every neighborhood.

I dont want anything dramatic.

I think the nothing more than an automated jackout procedure but instead of green code you have black code until there is nothhing left other than a blank screen and blinking cursor.
