I'm determined this will be my last thread on the issue (soz if it's not):

MxO is my first MMORPG and I remember when I first got it I would talk about nothing else - I would rush home to find out what the updates (in the story) were but now the 'magic' (this is a personal sense of the word) has gone and other issues have taken priority in my life so I don't have as much time anymore.

I'm sorry this thread has turned into a 'this game sucks - I'm leaving' thread...but it has.

I always thought (most probably like you) that people stating that they are leaving were drawing attention to themselves. Now, however, I realise that they saw the potential of the game and offered their views on the way to the exit simply to try and help make it better for the ones sticking around.

Ofcourse I don't expect changes to happen instantly - it's foolish to think so (also, I think SOE are doing a great job) but changes do needto be made (as well you know)

I did originally intended to make this post "different" than the others slaying the game - I failed lol

That post wasn't created to state the obvious - it was meant as a compilation of my thoughts about the game and my reasons for my increasing disinterest in it.

Also, it's all very well critising Runescape and i admit it's not a patch on MxO but it is more popular and has more things to do. (Also there is an option in which you can pay for Runescape, but that's another matter)

I also never suggested MxO be free - then it really would go to pot. I don't mind paying when I'm playing and i understand how much work the devs must be putting in and I respect them for it

Also, i agree MxO has masses of potential but until that potential is realised, personally, it's just a waste of money.

'Well, goodbye Captain Obvious, thanks for pointing out what most of us already know and 345845708340 players mentioned before.'

Is there really any need for this kind of attitude???

Organisations

What's the point in them? The only time it really matters is on PvP, missions and LE - but in the last LE we all teamed up!!???!!!

Nobody even acts as if we are at war - we have Machines and Mervs dstanding around discussing philosophy - which is all well and good but I always thought that was what the forums were for...

and then there are people who don't know what org they are in - i would call them noobs but that would be an insult to noobs worldwide.

Missions

They are all the same!!!!!!!! I'm highly tolerant and I'm bored. There is little diversity - how about different kind of assasinations or at least changing the KILL, KILL, UPLOAD, KILL system. This is the single biggest reason why people quit before hitting 50 IT'S BORING!!! Though, utmost respect to those who have.....

Items

Whilst I was thinking why Runescape has more players than MxO I stumbled on the answer.... They have a really, really, really big selections of weapons, items, armours, abilities ect. ect. We don't. This is why people are standing around Hardlines, chatting, trying to get their money's worth whilst waiting for the game to improve.

There isn't a lot more to this game than that - that's why I am leaving.

If the game gets better I will return.

I am very proud to have been apart of the MxO 'experience' - it has been a great experience over all.

I am really pleased to have met everyone I've met and I'd especially like to thank Denlor and Idolition for their helpful words of advice concerning MxO.

I'll still be reading and probably participating in these boards.

Gobdess and good luck,

I was wondering if the song 'Wires' by Athlete had any Matrix connection. eg.

I've got wires going in - I've got wires coming out of my skin (the pods)

Down corridors...... (ofcourse the all important matrix back doors)

Although I wouiod like more Matrix rooted Events if the loose ends get tied up I don't see a problem. Plus I was under the impression that MxO is the story of what happens when the Matrix didn't get reloaded.

I would love the story wo be ever continuing all the time eg. come home from school and check whats been happening so I don't fall behind - I'm not requesting fully blown LE all the time but some movie characters turning up once a week or so - showing the matrix to be an actual working place rather than a place that comes alive every few months and is pretty much dead the rest of te time.

Also -players being more involved in effecting the storyline would be nice. SMILEY

i get that but what about Runescape - does that not have lag because it's in an internet browser and the graphics aren't as gd?

I too thought, on buying the game, that the players would have more of an influence on the story. Perhaps that was just an ideal...

Before I begin sorry if this topic has already been discussed.

Now the whole Morpheus' death issue is tied up what do you think SOW will bring us in the future for our live events?

I was playing counter Strike yesterday and i suddenly realised there was no lag.

U know why this is?

I'm not an expert in post war detail but I was under the impressionthe assasin was a machine "garabe man" guy who came and recycled Trinity's body and then went into the Matrix and killed Morpheus.

What's the issue with making another server and offering the charcter migration scheme? I'm not a computer genius - but it's nothing they haven't done before andf it would service many people.

I would like to see or ie chart or at least some stats as to how many players are where and in what zones.

Though many people think this is an issue I had a great time at 7:30 last nite (BST)killing corrupted and hearing info on Awakened Radio but I would like to see a character. The closest I came to Morpheus was when his body was lying in state and burst into flys.

Thnx SOE - i remember not so long ago we were starring down the barrel of possibly no kmore live events and story line.

It's great for us to see your not just sitting on ur behinds all day wrecking a game .

Thank you SOE

I'd like to see some EU people Stats so we can apply to make a EU server. Cos I, like amny others missed the Oracle, seraph and Morpheus - which bugs me.

Also, im really interested on how EU rival Americns in numbers.

Also, I'd like to migrate to another server - u reckon they'll do that again?

4 me best case scenario - EU servr can migrate my character there SMILEY

I know this topic has been discusssed before - but I can't remember the outcome - did we decide the Matrix was within a Matrix.

I think we decided it wasn't but I'm not sure...

yeah - i was levelling with a level 50 at the time too

Ayone else been getting exeptionally low xp tonite?

Hiya - I'm on recursion I'll add u to my buddies and if we're on at the same time we can hang out or mission im level 24 btw.

c u soon

get well soon

My issue with the sequels is that although they have a lot of philosophy in (but hidden) they spend way too much time on te Burly Brawl and the Super Burley Brawl and a little too long on the car chase and zion dock battle - though I do appreciaate the amount of work gone into them.

Most of the philosophy in the sequels I didn't get and I've only understood and therefore appreciated the philosphy of Reloaded and Revolutions throughthese forums!

before i started reading these forums i read this site which was a bit pesimistic

www.matrix-explained.com

I bought a 3 month planand it cost 25 quid - not sure how much 6 months is but i hope this gives you some sorta rough guide SMILEY

...people start calling you by your Handle

...you pick a fight with someone twice your size after saying to your friend 'it's ok i've just got machine gun fist combo...'

...you ask in the optitions for arm - less glasses

...you boil up with hatred inside you when you hear the words zion, exile or machine (depending what org you are

...your surprised Tyndall Flood or Gray haven't left you a message on your mobile

...you feel you have to sit down when you've had minimal physical encounterment (< not a real wrod but I'm sure you understand)

Is that saturday 24th? and wot time for UK?

cheers

I'd like to see more content from ETM like the airport and incorporate new missions into them cos, frankly I'm a bored to death with the current missions atm - no imagination nothing vaguely chalenging.

If he was guarding the Oralce - he was doing a rubbish job.

I think it was a film makers' mishap.

If I catch it early I lay down and keep my eyes shut for 15-30 mins. NOTE: Eyes must be shut for at least a solid 15 mins - don't however, close them tightly just don't open them and reassure yourself that when you wake up you won't be blind.

If it's too late when I realise I have two paraceatamol (soz bout spelling) and if it's really bad I will have to sleep as well - at this stage not falling asleep isn't an option.

Tips for not getting headaches - Don't spend as much time on MxO, don't have staring contests with light bulbs, don't get up quickly when you don't wake up naturally, don't stress in your sleep and if u wear spex take them off every now and then.

This may sound negetive but a game like this is only as gd as it's realised potential.

I wish I was more positive :smileysad:

but they could be

I'm sure there's a moral there...

However I often check the forums @ school:smileywink:

Work morals aside, I think the game couod benefit from offline gameplay - however I use the term 'gameplay' very loosely. A better loading area - such as the White room would be good (although kinda unnecassary) We could have training simulations - though I'm not sure if it would be a gd idea to level up through these - perhap just to 'enchance' a skill but that sounds very airy fairy.

Hmmm thats all i can really think of.... at this rate the Offline will never get made lol. Though going to Zion is a big No No

On second thoughs - it's a nice thought but a bad idea.

make the good, bad

I have no idea what would have happened if the other anomolies took the door Neo did so I'll simply say - They wouldn't because of Trinity ect.

Earlier in the thread someone (can't remember who soz) said that the Oracle set up the Neo and Trinity love thing and they did the rest - if this is the case then the oracle would have done that because she wanted to stop the cycle - and just writing this I've realised y lol

She did it to end the cycle - the Archiect wanted the continuation of the cycle and they were constantly working against each other - to balance and unbalance the equation.

The Merv has power because he is aware of the reload 'survived your predecessors and I'll survive you' so he knew the anomaly will need the key maker thus inprisoning him - probably wanted to meet The One or something.

Does the Matrix get reloaded in the end? I don't think it does but I'm not sure.

Also - Smith is a contributing factor for Neo picking the door he did. As soon as he was aware of the cycle he knew he needed to go in not only to save Trinity but to stop Smih - probably aware he wasn't there before as the archeict didn't talk about Smith.

I think that's all i have to say - if thats not it ill post another...

it worked - thanx SMILEY

Yeah - does that make a difference - I'm gonna try that now thanx SMILEY

I can't take off my sun glasses - even when I remove them from inventory plz help SMILEY

HiLiter

as in High Lighter - the fluroesant pen.

The Reason? Last year in English (lesson) we annotated poems everyday using a high lighter pen.

Only once I accepted the name did I realise I could be seen as a Nazi:smileysurprised:

Ironically my friends have began calling me HiLiter once I started talking about the game.:smileytongue:

Can u please help me clear this up in my mind?

SOE replaced Monolith rite?

Are Warner Bros doing the story side of it, with the Wachowskis writing the story? (I was under the impression they were)

If I was writing the storing the story to MxO I'd write I few years of it at a time cos it wont take them as long to write as it takes the devs to create stuff.

Surely if we have WB - we have the WB

I have nothing against opinions.

What don't u like about the idea?

Thanx Ferallboy - u made me totally understand the part of the Matrix that confused me.

Ready? This either sound really clever or really thick!

The Oracle predicts the coming of every One.

The emergens of one intergral anomally into the next...

The source is where the path of the one ends (and another begins)

From the matrix you will select 4 male 17* female and re build zion

...a man born inside the matrix - it was he who freed the first of us....

*dont know excact numbers

Please don't say we knew that years ago cos atm i feel gd about myself SMILEY

Also - if u dont know what im getting at - then it's like a parable then...

oops sorry - only after reading back did i realise someone else said tat my bad - thuogh i didn't steal ur thought cos i didn't read ur post first time through im still happy lol SMILEY

Also - what happened to Seraph and Sati once the Smiths caught up with them cos we dont see themm again till the end.

Soz - a little off topic but the hought just came to me SMILEY

I think that's a great idea but instead of the operator being jacked in ie. RSI in the matrix - it should be a tab on the loading area which comes about after the skills are loaded.

I think operarors are one of the most importent aspects of the Matrix in general because not only does it represent there actually being another world it also shows the person's connection with that other world.

I think the part about codings cloaking devices to stop the machines seeing them as quickly and when agents are coming the operatror could get a timer on how long it'll be till the agents show up.

Ehen I was following the game's dvelopment I naturally assumed that the only way you could have hackers jacked in was to have them plug into some sort of the console - none of this fire workks stuff - the only thing close to this first hacker vision of mine is Access node hacking which isn't difficult - or as difficult as some coding.

But because hackers are a just a core part of the Matrix in general it is important that they exist.

It's all very well suggesting changes all the time such as Operators, player owned constructs but these thingstake time so for now lets just stand back (whilst SOE make our changes, hopefully) and marvel at the city landscape and be thankful we got this far...
