Greetings programs! Oh. Sorry. Wrong movie. SMILEY

Newly Awakened here. Well, okay, L8. Have to say, despite all I heard about the game (and experiencing some really weird graphic glitches... although upon reading the TechForums, it's Vista) I am enjoying MXO immensely.

I've also not seen an awful lot of players around, but I guess I'm just in the wrong place at the moment. Trying to get my head around the 'Coding' lark - may be a bit complicated for me right now. For the time being I'll just stick with punching foes in the face..!

Two questions, if you don't mind:

1) What do I do with those floppy discs numbered 1-8 that I seem to pick up constantly?

2) Are there any central "HQ/Stronghold" locations for each Faction to hang around in? For example, while I know Zion is outside the Matrix, is there a central base for Zionites to gather? Same for the Machines and The Merov's Club Hel? Probably an awfully fan-ish question, but if I don't ask... SMILEY

All in all, good to be here and I look forward at being killed over-and-over by you all. LOL

Cheers!

Welcome to the Matrix, and welcome to Vector!

Those floppy discs called bits. You need them to craft Tools, Consumables, Abilities, Clothes and Weapons.

No there are no special organisation locations to hang arround except the White Hallways. You my remember them. The Oracle and the Key master used them in the movies. You need a special key to get into them.

If you have any question, ask me. /t cypnis

Have fun!

Hey, welcome to vector!

cypnis is right that there are no special organisation hideaways except from the white hallways, and they aren't seperated for each org, you can encounter one another in there.

Some factions have claimed hardlines as their home ones, so if everyone isn't at Mara Central PvPing (that tends to be the central hardline for everything going on) then they'll be at their faction hardline. A couple of examples, Morpheus' Legacy, Zion faction, hang around Morrel and Dark Evo hang around Eshean. (I can't remember the exact hardline >_>SMILEY

Superb stuff. Thanks again. I'll be sure to avoid places with a large gathering of opposing factions when I hit L16 (?)... SMILEY

Heya and Welcome to Vector!!

Since you are from the UK try jacking in at late evening, its usually more populated areound those times. Also if you try and get into a faction with more Euro players then you'll have more people on closer your time then SMILEY

One bit of advice, Remember after lvl 16 to keep your evade up, It's saved many lives xD

Welcome to Vector, good choice SMILEY.

Majority of people will tell you the same. The majority of people hang out at Mara central usually, but after level 16, this will become dangerous for you SMILEY.

Each organisation has a stronghold, but only if you have purchased the Key, and even then, only up to 6 people can go in....basically a mission team. So there's no real mass hideout/stronghold for each organisation.

Although sometimes, and especially back in the old days, certain hardlines were noticably used by certain organisations, not as much today, but still sometimes:

Moriah East - Zion
Midian East - Machine
Apolyon Northwest - Merv.

Hope to see you around SMILEY

More warm welcomes! SMILEY  I guess I should be less enigmatic and say if anyone sees me online, drop me a...err...line. Not the most original of names, but I was bloody reaching for unique handles in the end: CyberSpike.

I know I know. If you knew how many Handles I went through to get one accepted...LOL You lot are too daamn creative for your (my) own good! SMILEY

 

EDIT: PS Jolly ole English does me just fine. *grins*
