And to keep my posts legit...me with my Evo again.

Sorry to see / Hear about what is going on down in your area. I am in MN and have watched our water levels rise quite a bit, and have friends in Iowa who are going through hell themselves.

On a lighter note, have you ever taken your Evo to MAM (Mid America Motorplex)? Fun track, and I plan on going to an event in August with these guys ( http://www.findtheline.com/ ). Good times, and a good way to go full out in your car without getting any tickets SMILEY

.

Hope you and your family pull through this!

Cheers

Shouldn't that read

I am concerned about professionals working on a system! SMILEY

Sounds like a stellar system, and better do fine considering I run at almost maxed settings on a simple Intel Core2 Duo laptop with intel's annoying integrated graphics chipset.

I am (like you) researching buying a new PC for home.

After three years, his contract with SOE is bound to be up.

Agreed.

Great work on his part. I just Sony would invest in him and this product, as opposed investing millions into adding more MMOs that people won't play.

Hardlines might not work so well in DM though, because then you will have people who just sit there and kill whoever comes through.

Since we don't tend to spawn near a archivist anyway, I think leaving them as the way out of the construct is fine. I do think it would be cool to make it so we can get into the construct from rundown hardlines in the megacity, or perhaps even old phones from within buildings (kinda like the old lines we are tracking in the current Zion critical missions, like the in building hardines featured in the movie).

Perhaps these old hardlines could have some nasty risks involved, say having them randomly spawn you in a heavily populated area (like Mara C) flagged up as PVP, or in the middle of an exile gang of your level or higher... heh... having some indoor, or faulty hardlines (for getting into costructs) could be a bit of fun.

Can't speak for Neopill ((as I have never talked to him in game)), however if this faction is being co-lead by Qabulin, I have to endorse it! Qabulin provided lots of assistance with my leveling, and is also quite a dependable as backup in combat situations.

Best of luck to you all!

Would totally go to one of these if they were in the WINTER!! August is the worst month for something like this (for me). Totally want to go, but don't have any open dates in that month (seemingly ever).

Now under new management, Unus Somnium is here to stay!

Big thanks to Havocide for his years of commitment and leadership.

Current contacts for our faction are as follows.

Commanders
Sotirios
Areyl

Captains
SonofDexII
PyroBlade
Lynner
Vaith

And many loyal operatives!

We are EPN, and have a good mixture of active members from around the megacity ((the globe in the real)). At the core we are a RP faction, but have leveling members that may turn is more into an RP / PVP faction full of positive attitude. Feel free to give any of us a shout /wave or whatever when you see us. We love to help fellow redpills, and are proud members of EPN.

In hopes that you read this when you are back with us.....

Welcome Back!!!

That was my thought too. I would like to have a dana, gasses, and earpiece at once, but I think it works okay as it is personally.

She is in our custody - to protect her from the dangerous terrorists that have been manipulating her grief over the loss of her husband their own ends.

I am sorry my friend, but I do not believe that you were present during the four separate conversations with Theresa, nor did you attend her husband's Funeral. As I doubt you are aware, Theresa came to us both freely and openly. We did not need to resort to capturing, and holding her, as she wanted us solely as an audience, not to pry information from her.

I can only speculate what you are doing to her while she is in your custody. However, since I am not there, I will not spread the fear, uncertainty, and doubt that your organization is so famous for.

2 patrols of 3 Agents had since lingered at the bank where Theresa is employed. Tonight, they were cleansed from the area.

Shinpseudo, Thanks for the call to action the other day. The resulting event appeared to have definite results.

The task force of Zion and EPN operatives involved in the cleansing moved swiftly, and systematically to remove the threat from Theresa Morton's office. Individuals from many separate factions worked together to make this happen. Sadly not everyone involved is pictured below. A big thanks must also go to Ednix, ShiXinFeng, as well as shinpseudo for pulling us all together.

Theresa's office is now open for buisness.

Nicely done

Reminds me of the old original cinematic series. I have never been a fan of the Anime style (or otherwise) newer ones. I love seeing actual game graphics (or renders).

An update regarding Theresa Morton has been sent to our liaison officers and some commanders within EPN. Please check your inbox for further details.

Log Update "Theresa Morton"

Greetings,

We again had an opportunity to meet with Theresa Morton. Below are some excerpts from the conversation we had with her. All of us within EPN owe thanks to 7h0r for meeting with her first, near Tabor Park North hardline. She was both relaxed and openly talking by the time Sotirios and I were able to arrive.

Sat May 10 22:46:53 2008 [Area] TheresaMorton: Thanks for the drinks earlier.
Sat May 10 22:46:54 2008 [Area] Vaith: Are you feeling better Theresa?
Sat May 10 22:47:06 2008 [Area] Vaith: no problem. I am glad you enjoyed them
Sat May 10 22:47:06 2008 [Area] TheresaMorton: A little..
Sat May 10 22:47:28 2008 [Area] TheresaMorton: I should still be in bed..

I have sent some EPN Operatives a digest of this conversation, including Fuscienne . I believe that she will forward this information to all EPN Commanders as well as Liaons.

Theresa was not directly approached for awakening during this conversation.

Regards,

Vaith
Captain of "The Kratos"

Take care!

You will be remembered!

Decorator right?

I am puzzled as you base your opinion on less than 24 hours of being a member of a faction. You do realize that people have lives outside of the game? RP (in my time in this game) is hit or miss, and depends on the day, and on what given players are actively doing.

MXO isn't WOW, so don't expect more than 20% of our players to be in RP mode for the entire time they are logged in (And I am talking entire player population). Most Diehard RPers are level 50, or Alts that are on from time to time. Everyone else is either busy leveling, or farming for stuff they would like to have.

Have fun with your time in MXO, but please treat those in whatever faction you join with a little more respect than you did us. If you would have communicated your intentions with your char, you would likely have seen some effort on our part to help you with that. Joining a faction, being silent, and just leaving (without saying anything) isn't really "role playing" is it? (unless you are a spy)

Best Regards,

It is tough to get a load-out that is efficient in doing this at a low level, however it is worth the time to farm the Corrupts at Bathery Row.

I leveled 10 times (levels 20 - 30) in two days farming the code, and trading it for experience with Fumigator. This was also only playing part time, and on a team for about half of it with people at or above my level.

Hyperjump FTW!!

We need to be able to ride Motorcycles in the GAME!!!

Sounds fun, I will hopefully be able to attend this one!

why not just put a certain distance of a non pvp zoneon the two hardlines in Bathory in westview?

That would solve part of it, however that isn't the only place that this issue occurs.

Congrats!

I have the hat, but I am only level 30 so that is all I can wear. I almost have all the needed components to earn the bandana, but no point in finishing farming them at this point since I can't use it :'o( .

This was a great idea, I hope we can do something like this again in the future!

I would like to thank the following for helping me,

Amative
Oriyx
Kimri
& Many fellow Zion / EPN members who let me join their teams fighting corrupts!!

They did not appear on the list, but did help me level, and gain some abilities / items. It is much appreciated, and i was able to return the favor by helping those at levels below myself.

Anyone else have any sucsess with this event?

Thanks again!

Looked like a great event, wish I would have been able to take part in it.

I like Joshua's comments, I also feel that we have lost our focus somewhat.

"You're easily distracted... Chasing Cyperites and super-villains."

Add to that "eachother" FWIW.

I have the week off work so if you wanna PM me the times and locations of some events, that'd be just great =D

Also: Has there been any progress towards putting something (anything) on the Ad Space For Rent boards for countries outside the US?

Add inside the US to that as well. All I seem to notice are the "Ad Space For Rent" boards wherever I go

I don't always look this odd, but yeah I was making a face for the camera..

And my natural habitat , MXO is to cool down, or for days I can't ride :)

Is there any possibility of imposing filters or âapproved people onlyâ in chat during live events, or to possibly make a live event channel (similar to Faction and Team)? The amount of $P@M in the events distract entirely from the event itself.

Thank you!

As opposed to opening a new topic,

Where is the best location to farm Reds ?

I would like to get my abilities updated, however these seem to be higly elusive for some reason.

again, meh to what you all are saying.

I know how business work, messages do nothing.

Phone calls do. I hope everyone has the intelligence enough to call in, get the money we are owed for downtime, and the items/what we are owed from the roll back.

but then again, its seems too many here are satisfied with second rate service at a time like this. sorry, i wont stoop.

I highly suggest (as others said) that you read your EULA with SOE. THAT is what they are obligated to do, nothing more.

If anything, what you are doing is reducing the chance of them going above and beyond the call of duity for yourself, and possibly all of us.

This may be the weekday Managed hosting provider inside me talking, however this lack of updated information on what we in the business call a "critical incident" is quite disheartening.

I understand that we have no SLA (Service Level Agreement) with SOE, however we are all paying customers and would like (and deserve) an update of status. I am not expecting an immediate fix, I just would like to know the status of a subscribed service that is currently not available.

Well that IP is up, so that is a start SMILEY

Though it is likely a core router / load balancer that sits at that address .

I was farming corrupts with Amative when my session froze too. (BSOD (in this case Black))

I guess I should get some "real" work done now SMILEY

As much as I like the idea, there are two significant problems when it comes to the Live Events.

1. Large number of org players waiting on Rarebit to show up for an area set up by the respective liaisons is bad enough. The last thing they need is getting killed before Rarebit arrives. The players are stuck in there as much as 30 minutes or longer despite the planned schedule that was given to the officers.

2. Players spamming the chat channel so *CENSORED* much that Rarebit's lines are left unreadable, which makes simple sentences drag on ten to twenty minutes longer because of the stupid spam. All it will boil down to goes like this:

Rarebit: *Insert a sentence*
Idiot: Spam (continues spamming the sentence for 15 minutes)
*Agent shows up and kills everyone attending the meeting, making players miss on what Rarebit is supposed to tell us.*

1. I have never been to a Live Event where someone didn't have rez, or seen anyone lay dead without someone using Rez on them.

2. Deploying Agents to Kill Spammer-X would not be a bad thing ! Perhaps they should take volunteers to play Agents to do this verry thing!

As a new first time user that loves the Matrix (movies, soundtracks, etc), I find the agents a HUGE dissapointment. As opposedto being an integral part of the game, they just get in the way. I am more afraid of CYPH and Mech factions (when in PVP mode) than I am of any agent when I am in restricted areas.

Giving them a bit more of a "life" in the matrix (even in these "peacefull" times), would make MXO seem more like the Matrix many of us expected when we started.

Awesome,

Thanks for the info. I will try some of those tactics with my teams, and check those locations if this occurs again (which my luck has it, will be my very next mission).

An issue that is becoming quite a common occurrence is that of disappearing NPC’s during group missions. Often we will need to have one or two members go out of the “Red” to prevent death (safe zone so to speak). However quite often a key NPC will follow them and completely disappear making it impossible to complete the mission goals for that zone. This sometimes occurs in battle when nobody is out of the “red), and the NPC in battle steps into the elevator or outside the door. I cannot count how many mission restarts our group has had to do because of this issue.

((Thanks for this tread. I now understand the negative vibe directed at me by many during events leading up to this live event. I was one of many left "in the dark" during the events leading upto this, and now I understand why.

EPN, I love the idea, the cause, our leader, and the overall mission. I have died many times defending our name and group beliefs, however I am now questioning why I did in the first place. If we cannot get along as a community, it will be our demise, and I don't want to go down with that ship.

I may be one person, however there are many of us new EPN initiates (in all factions) that will not stand for this kind of bickering, distrust, posturing, or otherwise behavior for too long.

As a new operative I look up to my lvl 50 comrades, however I too agree that these debates / arguments should be kept private, much like confedential information is kept from us new initiates to prevent other groups from taking advantage of it. If I were a CYPH or Mech, I would honestly be using this open debate as fuel to help my ajenda.))

I am sorry I missed this event, and I am also sorry that it was the last straw for some. Regardless, I look up to many of you, and hope I can for a long time to come!
