Cool new cinematic and missions!

What was the deciding reason behind pacing the missions?

the new way of critical mission availability is nice and interesting.
I havent really read the entire thing, but...

The darkness is darker? 5* for the entire MxO team SMILEY

It's a nice patch, I have one question though:


New ad posters have been added to the world.


Are these the bilboard ads or posters like we see in buildings? (I assume the billboards, but I want to be sure.)

________________________________________________________________________________________

The Matrix Online Story Continues in Episode 4.1!
The 4.1 Storyline missions and cinematic are now available in game.
Note: There is a known issue that the soundtrack for Cinematic 4.1 does not synchronize with the video on the first playthrough. This will be resolved in a later update.

_________________________________________________________________________________________

 

Not as if that hasn't happened before- with the one about cryptos.... and i don't think it's been fixed yet... and why did we have to change all of the soundtracks to the old cinematics anyways? The older soundtracks really added to the cinematics, but now the cool soundtracks have been replaced with borning scores.. oh well

Patch does sound cool though, can't wait.

Sounds good.

Nice idea with pacing the missions too...it either means they want us to take our time, which may mean LET interaction may occur inbetween them and date the missions.

Or Rarebit hasn't finished them yet :smileyvery-happy:

I don't like the idea of the darker nights at all. As far as I can tell about the Holiday event, the nights weren't darker all the time, but only some of them. So I would like the idea to have darker nights maybe from time to time (like the sky turns from green to purple from sometimes), it would be a nice variation. I hope it is that way, and not the other. Because I'm personally not a big fan of those dark nights, they make everything look more boring and uninteresting. I really hoped it would be removed after the holiday event, but no, the majority wanted it so...

So I still hope the darker nigths will change to brighter ones regularly. If not, I hope this will be changed more or less in one of the next updates then. Can anyone give me some insight into that?

MXO devs i am beggining to get annoyed with you

I am already trying to get my head round the FANTASTIC new combat system and you are not helping by adding even more content with a new cinematic and missions

Lol keep up the good work

Nice patch!  I especially like the way missions will be given out.  It makes more sense.

Not a bad thing in the patch, IMO (besides the cinematic thing). SMILEY

Beginning with Episode 4.1, Critical Missions will be released over a period of time, rather than becoming available all at once.

Darkness Falling
Due to popular demand, nighttime will be substantially darker beginning with Update 40. (Not as dark as during the Halloween Event.)

  • Drop rates for Construct bosses have been increased.
  • Halloween masks are now tradable.
  • Devs stopped using bleach on Black Plain Slacks.


*strikes up Hallelujah chorus*

Best patch I've seen in a long time.
