I guess everybody knows Serj Tankian's deep growl mode -- in "Cigaro", "Prison Song", "Needles" and "X", aswell as lots of times in Self Titled. It doesn't really sound human, and I'd actually take them for distorted. However, seeing as, i...

I've always thought it was the right animation... the back-rolling and shooting might be a part of the grab hit-hit animation, after which the Body Shot can be used.
Not less free than soldiers of any army in the world, I'd say, or in a brider sense, any employee in the world. The bluepills aren't free because they are kept in a simulation they buy as reality, because they're fed lies about history and...
Prior to CR2 the higher the level of Karate Master (for example) the faster and quicker, and more precise the attacks were culminating with Karate Grandmaster animnations that were outright vicious. Now it seems they do not get progrssivel...
I'm pretty sure the Power Plant from EtM is no more. However, I could very well imagine an industrial district with larger factories and maybe power plants; I've written down more detailed ideas about it in this thread . Actually, it was s...
First, it was Spoon Boy and not Spoon Girl ") Second, neither the spoon nor the soup exist because it's all simulated. What I don't understand is, why it's portrayed this way: bending himself works on the relation principle - whether the s...
Oh, and some buildings in Downtown, mainly in Historic District (or also in the business neighborhoods of Richland) look a bit old-fashioned -- as I supposed, the remains of the "Old Town" idea.
It's not like they were really scrapped, but rather merged into the existing ones. The "Industrial/Waterfront" was spread across the four districts, so we now have six industrial neighborhoods in the game (especially Southard and Ikeburo)....
Obviously not been to Germany then. I live in Germany. Ok, I haven't travelled around that much. I'm not saying a German town or city looks exactly like an American one, or that it doesn't have its own style in, let's say, older constructi...

Well, I didn't say it was explicitely and purely Chicago, but people recognized familiar locations (and location names) in the movie. To rephrase my questions to translate to the game, what neighborhood do you think Neo lived in and why? H...
It's not in the game. I don't even think the idea of the Mega City was born when the first movie was made -- it seems to take place in Chicago. The Adams Street Bridge is most certainly also a real location in Chicago, just as Wabash and L...

I know the name is misleading, but it's supposed to be a Chinatown, not a collage of different cultures. Even the posters in the subways have "Welcome to Chinatown" signboards or the like. Maybe they haven't called it this way to avoid con...
Nothing big, and nothing secret, but I've just found out that wikipedia.org has a timeline for MxO, aswell as numerous other information and explanations concerning the Martix franchise. Enjoy!
I've already started a similiar thread, but I'd like to suggest an advanced version here: The Live Events board does need a serious revamp; the way it's organized now, it's maybe good for keeping up with happenings by reading the current t...
The random names in critical missions (incl. contacts) have always disturbed me in a way, because they take away the reality from the happenings -- it's like, this is how it approximately was, or could have been at some indefinite time, wi...
There's a certain Aikido Grab move (where you pack your opponent's leg and twist it around, carrying off his feet) that needs an adjustment. I even doubt it's within the CR 2.0 responsibility. After you've brought him to the floor, he's ly...
Currently, the system tends to misplace Interlock participants instead of putting them into right positions to each others. To me, it happens too frequently, but I'd like to know about other's experiences and its technical background. - Wh...

Can anyone tell me how to get into the boss room and where the teleporter phone is? There's a room on my map (the one at the very south-east) I just can't find a way in. I can see it more or less through the barrier (in the room to the nor...
I know it's the first thing that comes in your mind when you get to see the Atlas, but trust me, the way the things stand today, nothing like this will happen in any foreseeable future.

The thread name sums it up. Additionally, one more specific question: Have the preconceived LET stories been abandoned, or picked up by Chadwick and the Devs? Message Edited by zeroone5069 on 06.03.2006 02:21 PM
Neurophyte, Toorima, Agent Skinner, the vamp rebellion, etc... from what I've heard, all these happenings (I use "happenings" instead of "events", because that sounds more general and isn't limited to the actual in-game events) have been i...

I didn't really like any of those "approach" moves very much... and the fact that they did get played so often just made it worse. Hands down though, the Aikido chop of Doom was easily the worst. Thing is, even though I wasn't a huge fan,...
