We should have any unique animations to zen master implemented into existing MAs. It would be a shame to never see those when a dev put alot of work into them.

Maybe add a central ability into the tree like some branches of the hacker tree has, for example put it into a tree the way delete upgrade 1.0 and 2.0 are in the center of the tree, optional but not mandatory. Then put a zen master ability in the last part of each tree of the ma styles.

yeh, but the level requirements are a bit different in the hacker tree, it's like the hacker equivilant of suicidal butterfly is level 35 not level 36.

Someone said a page back that they would need to make a Hacker and Coder Tree.

There were already two trees prepared for this , They were

Coder - Citadel Coder
Hacker - Trojan Horse.

Just thought I'd clarify that. Yeah Zen Master was awesome, they should bring it back. /sign. However I dont' think this topic should go here but rather in the Developement corner. Thinka bout reposting your originally opening statement there.

The only reason the tree's were ingame was because of an imbalence in the old combat system, they then removed it because the Hacker imbalance was better than the MA imbalance.

The Hacker tree has almost kicked the MA's tree's *CENSORED*. But Zen Master was thrown in for viral defense where Citadel and Trojan we're thrown in for new tree's, period. All 3 were gettin' new tree's for something to play with.

I agree, new disciplines/trees would really add to the game!!

And a funny sig, person SMILEY.

I don't care, quit living in the past.  There is valuable content out there that can be used again.  I never said the Zen Master should be used to counter a Hacker, it would be nice to see some new animations out there.

I would like to just pitch this post in this thread since I don't see any where else it would go.

 

But I remember when Zen Master was "Leaked" (I still have no clue how something that big can be accidentally leaked into the game) and I remember I had it and I thought this was amazing.  Zen Master actually made it feel "Matrixy".  It had great animations and it was actually fun to use.  It even had Morpheus' move, the one where he jumps up high and lands on one knee to the opponent (like he did with Neo in the Dojo and with the Agent during the Highway Chase scene).  But I just would love it if the Developers would re-think about balancing the Zen Master tree again.  It was soo, sooo sweet!!!  I would just like to have more Martial Arts in the game.  Because I think this would bring the replay value way up. 

So please reopen the QA server to test out and balance Zen Master to be in the game.  Because I don't like having something still in the game not being able to be played out by customers.  I just hope that Zen Master and new Martial Arts will be coming in the game.  I would rather have new trees instead of Old Archived Missions or Org Abilities.  So I would really like to see it that new trees are on the Devs list right after the Org Abilities/White Hallways.

 

And If anyone here has screenshots or videos of in-game Zen Master I would love it if you posted them, just so people can see what they were like.

 


Thank You

*CENSORED* man I wanna see that move from Morphine Boy!

It is like Sniper, just one extra little tree to balance everything while they sorted CR2 out.

It drastically increased Viral Defence and gave state inducing attacks, Powerless and such, though I am not 100%, I just read this as I came in just before it went.

Here's Zen Master, it was basically Aikido Jr. with more utility powers.
