The Matrix Online: William Westwater on Mission XP

FrankyBones

Monolith's William Westwater addresses the players over the recent patch, that ignited a fury among it's community.

Dear Community, After reviewing the impact of Monday's mission XP change, we agree that the new timer affects too many players. The settings were too extreme, hurting people who are just trying to have a good time. As a result, we are pulling the timers way back – effective immediately. Limits will be roughly 1/5th of the previous cap—about 2 minutes per mission phase. Overall, we expect that the vast majority of players will see XP return to the previous levels. Also, we plan to eliminate the cap from story and neighborhood missions in a patch coming soon. If you continue to experience the mission cap, please petition us under in-game feedback and describe how you completed your mission. We have greatly appreciated your constructive feedback and your clear desire to help us make MxO great. We remain dedicated to making sure MxO is as fun as possible for the entire community and apologize for any frustration that you have felt this week. Thanks, William Westwater

Nice to see they listened.  Now if only a certain other MMoRPG would listen to it's player base before firing off change after change.

I have been looking at getting in MXO, and after reading the forums this week, I was losing faith in the game because of the amount of complains that followed that drastic XP change.

To see that Monolith actually listens to it's customer pool gives me some hope, and I might actually get the game now.

Good news indeed for MXO.
