lol, get you some Ambien. . . You have some good points. I don't know if you know it or not, but the entrance to New Zion is encrusted with active EPMs and the city itself is built under a shelf of iron ore or something that is impossible...

The story of MxO started to fall apart the day they took out the variable of the player. The true lure of this story, and indeed this entire franchise, was that it was about choice. And in here, the choices we made would ultimately affect...

Hmm, I wonder if it has anything to do with this: Some weapons have two DPS attributes, something like 9 - 12. The first number is for IL DPS and the second is for ranged DPS. Now, if you don't use the sharpshooter ability, does the penalt...

Brilliant! Like a tutorial inside a story. Well done.

I do. But you you gotta understand, there are 10 John Smedley's waiting in line to take his spot if he were to leave. Ideally, you would be right and customers would be the driving force behind what a company does. Funny thing is, though,...

You request that they kill it? Yeah, that'll make you real popular around here. Look, the amount of money invested in this game is directly proportionate to the amount of money it might possibly generate in the future. Good business sense...

True, but people looking to play this game apparently don't care that we only have three servers. Why would they suddenly care if we only have two ? Especially given the "MXO is dead" reputation this game already has in the MMO world. EDIT...

Hmm, I really liked Program and, secondly, Matriculated . Both were outside of the main story and they both really spoke to the human condition in the real world. That's what got me, their lives outside of the Matrix, with hours and hours...

So, is this gonna be more like Get Smart, Goldeneye or Bourne Identity ?

Forget it, Phar. The Recursion people think they are too good to mix with us lowly Syntax players. It's a shame, imagine this game with most of the truly dedicated all together. In fact, I think even Vector would see an infusion of new pla...

Hey, welcome back! Did you have anything to do with the old RFZ radio station? Just curious. The easy answer is that, while you are leveling, you'll want a mixture of abs to help level faster, such as hacking, lock-picking, mission map and...

What drama? From what I've heard, Recursion's almost as much a ghost town as Vector. Which is sad, since it's not hostile. And Phar is right (holy *poop*, Phar made poast?!), it's not like they would shut down the game at this point just f...

Hmm. There's something to what Ghost said, all right. Why haven't the Machines evolved emotionally? With AI as powerful as theirs, why are they still so focused on logic and efficiency? Why did they stop endeavoring to become more like hum...

Wait wait. 13 episodes in the final season, right? The 10th ep is the one that ended at Earth, right? And they want us to wait until next year to watch the last three? I think we just got CapOned.

Rumbaar has been in my top 5 resource sites for most of the last three years. Den and Reik and the rest have put an INSANE amount of work into their guides and it shows. Awesome work OS! I hope it stays around as long as MxO does.

Granted this isn’t the military, but as an example, it’s hard to beat in comparing to this. The military doesn’t consider someone a veteran from the time they’ve been in. If you are a veteran, then that means you served during an operation...
