A Murder in Westview -- A New Hardboiled Detective Series

((I love it Atem. Matrix noir story. Count me in. It's still early to have Harp take any part in this, I don't want to force things out in a direction so contact me so that we can discuss about it.))

Post your favorite action screenshot!

Not a big action screenshotter, but that one bring me some very fond memories. Old-school alert! Yep, that was 7 Zionists jumping down on our roof, with one already there.

how many of you love MXO

The storyline. The day the storyline will stop evolving (because it will probably stop before the game shuts down), I'll probably stop too.

It was a really nice article. Like LotekGhost said, focusing on what defines MXO on the market: Rarebit, live events and the storyline. I don't know what's the reach of this website but I hope many will read it!

[7.2.4] Merv mission feedback thread: "Hell-Broth"

Hum, speaking of the operator, he said something about a maintenance ship. In really recent times it's the second time that I see mentions about the logistics of non-Zion redpills, something which was rather cloudy in the past.

The List - 4th of May - -

Good idea to restrict it to 2 areas. Since we're only 8, a whole district would have taken forever. The shorter time frame is also excellent. Will it start at the same time or could it start a bit later?
