It's not gonna hit anybody nearly as hard as it has so far as it will the day we all realize we can never jack in anymore.

There is absolutely nothing positive I can say about this video. I can't even grade you 'A' for effort, cuz any decent effort would yield much better results.

I can, however, offer constructive criticism:

The camera is too shaky, the scenes are all too rapid, there were some awkward /talk motes, e.g. Agent Gray's... I think /talkwhisper? is out of place, and Wright's movement is too anti-climatic. Any bit of action, like her randomly owning an Agent (since bending buildings is something we can't do =P) would be better appreciated. Oh, and the scene cuts need to be worked on, extensively.

TREE

This is a tree. It supplies oxygen for you to breathe.

One time use, keeps your oxygen needs down for thirty turns.

Or however you play TCGs.

SUN

This is a star. It's very bright.

When OUTSIDE, visibilty increased by 5000+

CLOUD

This is a cloud. It's very puffy.

Every turn, roll a die/flip a coin to determine if the CLOUD removes any SUN cards in play.

Real Life TCG?

Or David Blaine, or the Amazing Jonathon, or Bob Saget.

Oh, man, Bob Saget hacks so much I'm surprised he hasn't been banned yet.

I miss the good ole' days when the Admins would catch on really quickly. Remember that time when Nixon tried that one little $info glitch? Kaplat.

Ever since O.J., they've been slippin'.

Last I checked, cutting off the circulation to your Manhood doesn't assist in a suicide, or should ever be considered during a suicide.

Definitely not suicide.

It's an ok game, but the other players seem to be either idiots or a$&holes.  Plus, they really get riled up when you kill an NPC.

And the grind is the worst i've seen.

I know, it takes a whole year just to get up one level.

It's buggy as hell, too. I know this one guy who sploited the crap out of everything til the Romans banned him.

Then he hacked his account back into use three days later and made many lulz.

It's not like MxO if it doesn't have IL and an interactive story.

MxO's dead. Not exactly a glowing incentive for future MMOs to have similar properties to it.

I jacked in for the first time literally days after the final Assassin-related event happened.

LOL

I tried Vanguard awhile back, it lagged like Hell, and that was on the top of the line system. 

I doubt it's much better.

It's not. I couldn't stand playing it for more than twenty minutes. That, and after a short while, I became suspicious that this game was extremely similar to another MMO of SOE's. I think one of the EQs.

...the fact that a whole bunch of MxO players will be there already gives me a sinking feeling...

An unfortunate side-effect of finding this list seems to be that I appear to be online all my characters to people who have them on their friends lists, I guess?

Eh, I'm just downloading MxO from the Launcher now, to see if that works.

So here's my issue: my MxO launcher client isn't updated to the latest patch, but it won't download anything for updating, either. I tried turning off Firefox and retrying with Full System Check on, and it seems to be aware that it needs to update, but nothing.

I downloaded the Station Launcher to see if the issue was with the launcher only, but the Launcher seems to think that MxO doesn't exist.

Fun stuff.

LOL I WAS THERE AS A MEMBER OF EBOLA'S FACTION

So yes, I do indeed have a log and I do indeed know for a fact who shot first

I remember, being in Ebola's faction back then, how we all laughed hysterically at the drama everyone else was involved in.

Might any of that include paying me and Goligoth the several billion $info you owe us? X3

You know what I'll really miss the most?

Player Events. Taking the matrix universe and knitting yourself into its tapestry, or watching other people do the same for themselves.

Granted, there was a lot of loose string types; ageless vampires, relatives/reincarnations of Neo, and the countless "I died but now I'm back alive again" stories (of which I'm guilty of doing once or twice (might not be MxO-exclusive)), but the other 99% of the time it was great stuff, and usually allowed anyone to take part in it.

I friggin' love improv.

Left 4 Dead 2 announcement makes me a sad camper.

Left 4 Dead 1 has been out all of eight months. I hope that by "sequel" they mean to the Xbox version and expansion onto PC.

It seems like an extended expansion to me. Set in the US South with 4 new characters, new special infected, new weapons (including melee weapons), new maps. They also said that it will release with more maps for campaign and versus at launch. Oh, and Survival mode will come built-in at release.

Additionally, they're boasting an improved AI Director 2.0 that will be able to control weather and environment and map characteristics. Made it sound as though the new maps won't be entirely linear, maybe multiple paths to choose.

 

"Set for Nov. 17 as an Xbox 360 and PC "exclusive", the game will add melee combat, deeper cooperative gameplay and new weapons, including a chainsaw, frying pan, axe and baseball bat.

The game will make use of AI Director 2.0, which Valve says will take the game's dynamic gameplay to the next level. That means the ability to procedurally change weather, world objects and pathways and "tailoring" enemy population, effects and sound."

Mm-mm, there was some interview where it was confirmed that it will be a sequel at full retail price because of all the new changes. Im annoyed, but I can understand why, for a game that was designed for the Xbox, since they couldnt keep updating the game like TF2 for their precious console players.

I've learned that it's much safer (and, ironically, smarter) to play the fool than the smart guy.

I predict MxOSpace will die, but not in the turned off sense, but in the nobody except the sometimes hateful troll will ever visit it after a period of time sense.

Holy sh**, cloudwolf. Every single name in those screenshots... d*mn.

Oh, my naive young grasshopper. This isn't limited to a thread. See: General Public opinion towards MxO.

If they're not surprised that it lasted this long or that it exists at all, they don't give a s**t and simply hate on it.

That's cuz it's so similar to Fallout 3.

Zing!

For the next six weeks, I will join six different factions and leave them for various reasons within the week.

I will also start two-to-three awesome RP stories that will garner medium-to-large attention and not finish any of them.

And just for s**ts and giggles, I will, for one last time, try to get that 50 billion $info from Major Masters that I never got.

Hot fudge sunday with rice smathered with Mave's man juice, maple syrup, gekko testicles, and a cherry on top.

And a side of fries.

Back from your Hiatus in Mexico to tell us the bad news, Eh? Pfft.

This.

I don't respect you, Walrus, for your decision to break the silence with this kind of news.

I'll find it hard to respect you at all, anymore. And I certainly feel no love for people who continue to coddle to you just because you made a post.

Of course, all will be forgiven upon the deliverance of an Agency beta key to my account.

Back when we could have two passive defense boosts active, I found a way to activate all four of them at once, using some fancy manuevering with the loading screen and unloading/reloading the proper abilities.

Also, I figured out how to load more abilities than I had memory for. I once went the entire patcher tree (at least all the abilities I had) and the entire gunman tree. I then proceeded to pwn an Agent. But it was really difficult to reproduce ( I think it involved lag ), so I could only do it two or three times total.

Oh s**t son Squirrel knows some cheats!

Yeah, you didn't exactly go out of your way to hide your true identity, mister my-profile-links-to-Fickey's-blog.

Rather ironic, don't you think, that they're doing stuff for us now.

I'm more upset than glad that they did it.

I'm so used to never being on lists in list-other-player-type threads that I'll go ahead and say something to myself:

ZippyTheSquirrel: You were a fool for accepting the Perpetual Fly Virus. How could you not see the shower jokes coming? Good thing you were so d*mn sexy.

TIMCAMM: Sorry. Totally my bad.

Terentia: Still miss ya!

Sieges: My character had a slight crush on Morraeon. I thought that would be interesting to play out.

NightTrace: 'Ey, fawk you, cubo, why ain't ya here wit us in our final moments? Banned ain't no excuse no mo', homie.

Return: Pulled me into RP, thanks for that.

GreatWyrm: You actually scare me just a smidge.

ZippyTheSquirrel: You're not going to be on anybody else's lists, you never have been, so I'm gonna put you on this one twice! There ya go, pally.

Anyone I forget I will make up for in future edits.

Oh, sure, gotta love the 90 degree weather followed by hellish thunderstorms to drive around on roads that are still being built.

God, I f$%@ing hate Georgia.

Then again, I'm a freak and I'd prefer it if it rained every day. I'm too tan for someone who never goes outdoors 'cept to work.

This community produced some of the best creative work I've ever seen both literary and graphical. Faced with limited resources, many of us took it upon ourselves to create content and contribute. If anything, I regret not ever finishing some of the projects I started...

the website,

the new website,

the comics,

the game (w,a,s,d,f to play around a bit),

the access node,

and many many others. Apart from that, my only other regret is not having played more.

/bowhead

 

Wow, all that stuff looks really cool. Especially the game!

/standingovation

Your stories have kept me more involved than anything Rarebit could ever dream up.

No way!!!!!

Cyphs have an emo leader and no direction.

Zion's still stuck in a hole with nowhere to go and only Trinity to follow.

Machines are still enslaved under the bubble gum guild.

EPN has a kiddie for a leader and lost their other one.

Merv leads the score by at least ten leaders and several "got what we wanted"s. Bwahahaha.
