what iz the matrix?

it haz been said that it is a system built to keep us under control in order to turn a human being in2 a battery.

at the end of the matrix trilogy; we find a very different matrix... version 6 had crashed and version 7 was booted up.

mxo iz version 7. it iz a matrix where human beings can leave if they choose to and we find 3 orgz fighting for power and control.

after 3 years, this version iz still running and a couple of heroes have been exterminated in the course of that time period. a lot of programz have come to power and eventually defeated. for a while, the truce waz broken and war waz imminent but even that waz shortlived and gave way to something, something elusive, and quiet and dare i say meleoncholy.

could this be the quiet before the storm?

will the machines decide to eventually stop all humans from jacking into the matrix?

will we see the anomaly we called neo return?

or will we humanz cease to care about entering into the simulation altogether

it is up to us!

...Thank you, for that beaming light of wisdom and insight.

Im curious as to what exactly inspired this revelation, could it be related to your repeated yet inconsistent spelling of the word "iz?" Or the inexplicably small and hard to read font?

Actually, isn't it still version 6? My understanding was because of Neo's difference in decision from the rest of the anomolies, the Matrix wasn't rebooted.

It wasn't. This is still version 6. That's why we haven't seen a new One. Because the anomaly was "deleted".

it is up to Rarebit and LESIG!

Well, that about sumz it up, really.

actually this is version 7.

look at ur patch notes when u log in2 the game

launch version: v7.5647

so one can ultimatley say that this is version7.5 : )

it is my view point that

the matrix in the trilogy was version 6 because the architect announced to neo that this will be the 6th time they have destroyed zion.

at the end of the trilogy, u saw something happening, when things were changing after the neo/smith fight.

the matrix has always had a green tint but when that change happened, the green tint was gone.

it was a new matrix, version 7.

and on the seventh day god ended his work which he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.

genesis 2:2

**Synapse777**

Unlimits brought the green tint back.

Yes because the Launching Platform for an Online Game that just so happens to be derived from a popular Movie Series IS REALLY INFLUENCED BY MARTIX LORE.

/facepalm

The Matrix needs a reset.
That's what the One was supposed to do--part of the intended cycle--but Neo gave them the finger.
Now we have to live with the consequences: instability, code artifacts, systemic errors, random anomalies, old data that should have been purged; and I have a feeling that it's just going to get worse.

Indicates that while the simulation was fixed after the Neo/Smith incident, it wasn't rebooted/reset, it carried on. Neo was supposed to aid in the resetting of the cycle but he didn't, he chose another path.

Thus due to the hotfix, it is at best version 6.5.

Also I agree with Comserv, but if you want to use the game's launcher as an argument then how about this, the launcher is part of a hacking program used to jack into the Matrix so it is version 7.5 of the jack-in program, which doesn't mean that the simulation itself has to be the same iteration.

is this before or after i sword out my katana at great attack?

those of u who still believe that this is still version 6

i would like to indicate the following exhibits as evidence.

the matix in the film was completely taken over by smith, every man, woman and child was smith, programs and blue pills alike. i think it is underestimated just how catastorphic this was to the simulation.

the oracle even mentioned that smith would not stop there, so neo manned up and did what he had to do

now how exactly do u erase what happened to those poor blue pills without rebooting the sim? they are scarred for life! lol even if u do a rollback of windows, ur puter has to reboot.

thats how programs work. u get a serious enough virus in ur system, ur sytems crashes, u cannot bring the system back without a reboot.

to indicate further that a different version was booted up is that there is no more green tint

other evidence includes

the patch notes

when this game went live, it has always been v7.****

and yes, i believe it is like that for a reason

matrix version 6 was the movies

matrix version 7 is the one that u can play

makes sense to me, in a most poetic matrix style; doesnt it?

a lot of things are poetic in the matrix, a lot of things are interpreted differently

like how in the first movie, the film begins and ends in the same room

its mind boggling but cool as a piece of ice.

we all are going to interpret the movies differently, i cant dismiss the changes i saw at the end of the third film as just eye candy, it meant something very profound was happening. it was a reboot! how can u say it wasnt, in the films, every single frame has meaning so why even show the change if it wasnt intended to make people believe that the simulation was rebooting since nothing like those effect were ever shown in the previous films before it.

mmmm
