The Matrix Online [merged]

i dont know if anyone has already made a thread for this, but oh well.

Has anyone seen this game? It looks awesome!

But, as with most MMORPG's these days theres a subscription.

so, anyone gonna get this game? comes out in 2004!

i got a screenshot from the site:

nice eh?

here:

I'm guessing it will be mediocre like ETM, though it could be very good if done properly... or very terrible, we'll have to wait and see I guess. I'm pretty sure of one thing though, there will be better MMORPG's coming out over the next few months, and I don't know how much longer merchandise can simply rely on the matrix name to be successful, people will tire of it soon.

well, I heard you trade 'techniques' like trading cards, which I ultimately find pretty gay. if they really work on the animation and the special effects, people might overlook the gameplay (which would probably be the best thing for them). Basically Im not drooling over the game, but am waiting to see the final inevitably disappointing product to come.

it's a huge mmorpg, the wachowski's apparently desinged this one as well, but are not basing it on the movies. its much like city of heros but with a matrix theme((leather and sunglasses))

well it could be good or bad...............

If done properly and not rushed, it could be very good. We'll just wait and see. There are other more exciting MMORPG's on the horizen though.

You have to pay for it though!!
I'm not gonna do that!

Think about it. You go to a movie theater. A ticket, on average, is about 8 bucks. (9 here) You get a soda, which is about 4 bucks, and popcorn, that's another 3.50. Add that up, and you've got $16.50. The Matrix Online, or any other MMORPG that u pay for is less than that. If you go to the movies twice in a month, that still adds up to about $16. Now, what would you rather get: 2 movies; a movie and concessions, or a month-long game that has movie-quality storyline, you control the storyline, and you can watch it from the comfort of your own home. Now tell me, what's the big frecking deal about paying a monthly fee? It costs to run the servers and all. Also, it's cheaper than buying a new game every month, and this game never ends, in theory. I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to strongly disagree with you, tptmanno1.

I dont have a problem with payment, in this you can fight other player's hence you may play a villianous role if you want, and the fights are supposed to be spectacular so i figure the game earns its keep. of course you cant fight like the one((hence there wouldnt be the "one" but the "Many"😉) but you can advance beyond the other character's weve seen in the film's....and wait for it.....THERE's AGENTS! woooooo!

its based on the movie trilogy's ending... which means the matrix is still around *oo big surprise* . Right now it looks like beta garbage 😘

when is it gonna get released? ive been waiting ages for a release date!
hey, if you guys get it, we should form a crew for a ship(can you get ships in it?)!

i read somthing about ship's, and crew's are a major influence i dont know when it comes out but perhaps forming a crew here wouldnt be a bad idea. but Im still wavering on other mmorpg's Matrix, final fantasy 11 or city of hero's.

well theres the problem of my monthly income of 0$ and the fact tha my perents probly wont buy the payment thingy.
