What's left in mxo are hardcore matrix roleplaying fans with visions of virtual grandeur. |

problems with Vista and problems with the 8800 gfx cards and no sign of fixes anytime soon |
|
|
a FEW things were added since beta but no real content. Game is repetitve and boring, even if the game was free I wouldn't play it. That's how bad it is. |

zomg free client SOE!11one it will bring more poeplezz!!!1
that always make me smile. no free download because 1- servers to offer unlimited downloads for a 4gb download costs money, and a lot of it. 2- Mxo is AT BEST breaking even. 3- Planetside has a free download because planetside makes more $. 4- The game is planned for shutdown soon. 5- And yes it is only for fanbois, there are just enough to keep it afloat. 6- Read my lips again, SOE sees mxo as hopeless and a money sink. They are not going to spend money on it, no matter how rich they are. Seriously have a reality check.
The concept of the game itself is great. The problem is the game was so badly designed, it would need a new engine and huge development costs. The current devs in mxo would not touch the code with a barge pole, they just do a modding job and with no testing team, just cross their fingers that all goes well and it usually doesn't - just recently 3 days worth of gaming has been reverted. Now SOE bought mxo for the WB license. Before they even took over they had this budget planned for DC online, not reviving mxo. And good luck to anybody trying to present a case to revive the dead horse. 90% of players do not stay after trying it, who would after doing the same missions over and over or sitting at the hardline wondering what to do? If you enjoy Live Events and Storyline - since it is the main argument of the fanbois- you can enjoy it for free in the Live event forums. Because chances you stumble into one are slim to none and they are dull and repetitive. |

like everything else in mxo, it is going to be delayed for months and if it comes at all it will be buggy or another disappointment

It's (un)official- development stopped for mxo
The Construct (General) « The Matrix Online 6/12/07 10:47:01 AM
All good :)
I think it is the first rollback and I feel sorry for those who lost items and experience. But it is no secret that each update comes with its share of bugs and trouble. In any decent game they have people testing extensively before a release, obviously it is not the case with mxo. But all is not Doom and gloom after all |

For Zeroone since he has some problems with english.
end of the year-beginning of next year is not august or september. as for the rollback issues what do you expect with no team to test each patch before launch. |

and i hope this doesn't happen during the trial

SOE isn't interested in marketing this game with permanent free trials for everyone. Because of not much being done in this game it wouldn't be a good idea. With a permanent free trial, everybody would know the game is hopeless.
Keep the fanbois and offer their buddies free trials. |

Cloudwolf (Skyjackal) is member of the mxo fanboi marketing initiative. I just hope you aren't giving people false hopes offering limited buddy keys on many sites.

It's common for developers to say:
Folks this is very very hard to do omg, impossible! When in fact it will only take dedicated personel or more resources and when they finally do something about it. Then all the fanbois rejoice: Look they done it, "insert dev name" ftw! And appearance changing grind? In many games an appareance without having to bust your ass to change your eye color or hairstyle. |

Folks I love the game, I love the community the only thing I hate with a passion is SOE.
You have the right to protect the game you enjoy and I have the right to rant about it, in the end, us matrix fans, are on the same boat lead by captain SOE. This game had the potential to be the greatest ever but the captain pissed on it, they have the millions to make something of it but they chose to ignore the will of thousands of subscribers. The Matrix is really unique. No other can really compete. Look at DC comics, it already faces competetion from Marvel and COH. SOE has a beautiful license in front of them and chose to ignore it and chase the path of everybody else and they will fail again. I saw this post made it to mxo forums and I am flattered :) I am not a hater, not a Gothique, it doesn't matter who I am or who you think I am, that's besides the point. We can talk about this again after a few months because I sure as hell will necro this thread :) |

It may have been like that for a long time but it doesn't mean it will stay on forever. Just a few more months to be precise.
Goth? I think I can find better sources than that |

SOE will always be the underdog in the mmorpg business until they seriously change their PR .
I think more people will play Marvel, not only because Marvel is much cooler also because the letters SOE send shivers down gamers spines. WoW>swg/Vanguard Age of Conan>Gods and heroes Marvel>DC online And I rather pay $15-20 a month for a solid fun game than $30 for a dozen average/bad games |

You have probably read and noticed the SOE article on the main page.
Other SOE Stuff where is the matrix online?
For those fans already loyal to an SOE game or two, there is a ton of new content coming out for all your favorite existing SOE products: Everquest, Everquest II, Star Wars Galaxies, and Vanguard Saga of Heroes have all got something on the horizon. A new expansion and content will also be available for Pirates Constructible Strategy, Star Chamber and the Stargate Online card game (Even if they're not MMOs, we thought you might be interested). We will have more on these games, and their updates, as the material gets closer to launch. Awesome, even a card game will get new content and mxo is nowhere on that list. SOE capped off the event by leaving a logo for the upcoming DC Online on-screen at the end of the presentation. The Batman animated series soundtrack was a nice touch as well. It will be interesting to see what happens when SOE's DC Online goes head-to-head with the Cryptic Studios created Marvel Universe Online. That's why SOE bought mxo, for the DC license. Damn you SOE |

I must have missed the orcs and elves in Neocron, AO, coh, cov and swg. Is there a code to unlock them?

At least you admit that all new "content" is just doing the same missions and farming with different text on the screen and different rewards.
You wanted to compare about MMO's. I have played mmorpg for years (EQ EQ2 neocron anarchy online swg wow gw coh cov vanguard dark and light and many others) I can make a list of things mxo will never see, I dont even need to mention expansions. (player housing, vehicles, pvp honor system, territory control, proper crafting better than getting codebits and clicking a button, politics...) Just have a look at swg or even wow and you know what content is. Why it hasnt shut a year ago? Because there were much more subscribers last year. It would be foolish to thik that expensive servers and staff will be kept at a loss to please the remaining players - yes all 5 of you - Having said that, my source is reliable. Don't hold your breath for mxo. |
