Well, here I am with my Jesus powers bringing it back from the underworld!

I figure that since the White Hallways concept was taken so well from my White Hallways article, that doing these districts would be good too.
I'm pretty sure the Devs didn't get the idea to put in the White Hallways from your article.

Your ideas sound pretty good, but I'd aim most of the content at high level players from 40 up.

Can't believe I haven't stumbled across this thread before. I have to say the depth and detail the creator put into these areas is amazing. I just love the amount of history and small homages to other Matrix Universe concepts.  If the devs incorporate even one idea from any of this I think it would have been all worth the work. /twothumbsup

My favorites: The "Talkies", Superpunch monument, LeVrai restaurant (sp?), Vertigo Tower, The Big Iron club.

Yeah Id agree with that actualy, we do need some more content our sides, perhaps some new quests I dont know. Yet the Corrupted quest is good, it would be nice to receive other stuff too. I mean if SWG can get an event type tool  which helps with Player Events, it would be awesome if we got the same.

And whitehalls were played im sure well in advance of any thread

Like I said I don't think it's worth the time and effort required to create these 2 new districts.

We should bump this puppy to the top and propose ideas as to how they could do this.  I for one would be willing to suffer through another story timeout to give us THE MATRIX.  For as long as it took provided we were updated on progress at least once a month.  Developement progress NOTHING else.  This game is still a far cry from ANYONE'S expectations who have been here a conciderable amount of time.  New players will eventually agree.

I was happy to hear a new quest was being put in until I saw what it was.  Corruptor's are old recycled content.  I've been there, done that.  Why do I want a patcher item that is good after patcher gets nerfed?  Even if it didn't get nerfed why have the item anyway?  For what exactly?  Those items themselves are old clothing repainted, not new.  One less slot in our too small inventories. 

Not to mention Giant Fly monsters randomly spawning in the city (story-wise) doesn't make sense.  Put them in a construct or INSIDE one of the warehouses there not out in the open.  MAKES NO SENSE. 

 

Fresh, new MATRIX content.  Having the Matrix in combat again would be very refreshing as well.

As much as I want fresh new content, I really don't see this happening any time in the foreseeable future. We're not even sure if the game would still even be alive by the time this is actually implemented, and most of the people that worked on the game didn't make it to the transition (i.e. laid off)

Another idea is to maybe implement something for us to do in Downtown or International so the areas are more used.

Never seen this thread before, haven't read it yet so I'm doing this in reverse, but I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and guess.....it'll never happen.

I'm now going to read it from page 1 and nod sagely. I may cry a little.

interesting as fan-fic, but.....it'll never happen. why not fill up the mostly barren areas that already exist before throwing in new districts? plus, you know....one dev and some maybe other dude. etc.

Wow, just discovered this thread.  Brilliant stuff, very well articulated.  If I win the MegaMillions I'm gonna donate a million dollars to MxO providing they add stuff like this!
