Why this game will succeed!

Just think about this:

Most MMORPG's are nearly the same. Most of which are set in the same time period, with similiar classes, races, skills, and monsters. When it comes down to it, they are the same really!  With just a few tweaks here and there. On the other hand is the matrix, with a totally different concept and setting. Modern, urban world. With the saturation of Matrix Style fighting, I have a feeling that TMO will draw some new players into the world of MMORPG.

I must say, I personally won't be playing though.

     This game looks fairly similar to CoH.

     It's going to be modern time setting and will just be fighting and missions. No tradeskills or anything. image

    I hoped it wouldn't be as half-assed as the other productions with that licence (enter the matrix), but seeing the trailer killed that hope.

    Lame, boring graphics, some ridiculous fighting movement and (as above) the obviously lacking economical part.

    I think the best draw of this game is being "in the matrix" on the net, living in this world and interacting with other coppertops... hopefully they will take full advantage of everything the matrix concept has created... and not be a bland fighting game.

    ~fingers crossed~

    The succes in this game is that every1 wants a game that you can fight ONLINE, so the matrix online is an example of it.

    I think it will be a great succes

    ::::40::Well there is a slight differance..........loot! you will pick up "skill cards" "weapons" and " matrix style Clothing" also no load screens, aloud to go in any building, and the best for last.....PvP!!!This game will be one for the ages! Over 25+ different martial arts.....about 10 weapons at release, l3 mains skill cores, Hacker, Spy, Soldier, i think the begining will be slightly dull but when u start on the first day and lvl quickly, YOU WILL FIGHT THE ANGENTS! AND PvP will be more fun with better skills::::40::

    The initial release will be really good, then they will release two expansion packs that will totally screw it up.

    Oraclep4, that was anarchy online in a nutshell :D. No more anarchy online for me.

    As for matrix online. There is crafting in this game. Hacking.

    Like to 'enchant' a shirt with protection, you can hack its info. And hackers can create items, if they have the required ability code.

    and so i hope for a real rpg.. because their is also a crafting system and many people write rp stories and histrories for their chars

    Edit: im rewording this post, at first it was pretty rude.

    Matrix Online will have more 1337 13 year olds then any other game, and so many Neo wannabes.  I can't tell you how sick I am of the matrix now after all 3 movies, game, and the HUGE amount of hype around them.

    Some good stuff I will say is the animation is very well done, and the clothing options are pretty sweet. Also as someone said before the idea of the Matrix being a a world inside a computer, which is what the matrix online will recreate is a good cool base for a game.

    Woo! Go MxO! The game looks great, makes a change from the repetitive medieval fantasy gameplay. I'm looking forward to the "wire fu" based fighting + firearms, and the ability to craft abilities sounds interesting, who says the tradeskills in this game won't be great!

    Too bad Monolith/Warner Bros can't prevent children from playing this game, but who can? All MMORPG's has it's share of little brats I agree MxO will perhaps attract more but oh well, more reason to kick ass!

    Peronally I think Matrix online will flop big time. First of all, is there any profession or we all the same? What is the fighting style? Guns combat, handcombat and other melee with no magic? What will we be fighting? We will be fighting agent only or other human looking enemies? No monster? Is there a robot? There's no variety to the game what so ever. It's like a way to make quick $ off Matrix fans.

  • ArnoArno Member Posts: 6

    I cant wait to play this, well partly cuz im a matrix fan, but beyond that it really look very fun and exiting. I love the fighting, along with a wide range of weaponry and moves, every battle will simply look great! Other than fighting and exploring there are other things that will keep me interested like crafting for instance has a "other" feel to it than any other mmorpg cuz, well you create stuff with data, well everything ingame is data lol for that matter, so anything is really craftable and does not not feel unrealistic. The clothes also look really cool and awsome, i like looking apart from anyone else, and to acomplish that in this game doesnt look to hard cuz there is a very wide aray of clothes and accesorys, like shades (dang they look cool)

    Cant wait for this game, darnit!image

    Magic?......guess your not a big matrix fan, right now they have 3 different perfessions and they expand more when you level, also you get skill cards which give you new skills, better shooting, hacking, fighting, ablility to hyper jump. But still i cant get over the magic part, hahahahahaha F*cking A teei

    You lost me there lol

    at least do some research on the game before you give it a negative response lol

    The last time I checked an Agent couldn't cast a lvl 6 magic missile

  • TeeiTeei Member Posts: 175

    Don't get me wrong. Matrix is a pretty good movies. I just don't think it will be great on an mmorpg. Basicly in the movie, Neo fights only the agents in the Matrix and robots outside it. It just would be boring runnning around a City fighting agents only. There's no variety, I think. Fighint only human looking NPC in the Matrix, how boring is that. It's a way to make some quick $ off the hardcore Matrix fans.

    You guys are lol about my "magic" statement. This is what I mean, Matrix have no magic which would be pretty boring like SWG.  People running around gun-fighting and brawling, that's all. Pesonally I think fantasy is the best genre in mmorppg. You can lol at me now but when the game flop I'll will be lol back.image

  • AmunetAmunet Member Posts: 136
    Oh! Please! You do not fight "Only" Agents! Please do some background checkign before you go into conclusions! If you look, you can find an article where [Maybe IGN.com?] Where they werte saying they were hunting VAMPIRES And WEREWOLVES!!! [In the matrix world, these are called Blood Suckers and Lupins, which look like people, but they have different abilities which are close to that of those mythical beings.]

    Is there going to be more than just green tinted buildings with you stuck in a "limitless" world of cities?

  • Wharg0ulWharg0ul Member Posts: 4,183

    People....really. Go real Fileplanet/Gamespy's MANY large articles about the game, and read the first city-guide installment before you crap on such a great game. Professions? who needs them when you can fill any role your team needs by downloading the skills you need. Tradeskilling? Of course! Who do you think writes all those pieces of code you use every day...

    Everything in the matrix is code. Including, say, your clothing. So not only can you have nice looking shades, but with a bit of work, nice looking shades that let you see in teh dark, or what-not.

    The way this game is being designed gives basically limitless possiblilities. Stop being so narrow-minded and bashing somethign you know nothing about.

    Yes, there's a story, yes there are things to do besides fight. What you are seeing is "action-packed" trailers designed to hype people up, so of course there's a lot of fighting.

    So many people are gonna eat their words when this game is released, and I'm gonna be handing out forks.

    i have being posting in the OFFICIAL matrix forums for ages now, im a matrix fan and i know almost everything there is to know, reading alot of your posts, it is obvious you havent looked deep enough into the site and are making stuff up as u go along.

    1. No expansion packs for gods sake, its all going to be downloadable.

    2. there is only one loading point, which is when you enter the matrix.

    3. You can go into every room,go through every door of every building. Thats how huge the level is!

    4. There isnt the "traditional" armor, eg: buying armor with 5odefence. in the game you create your own type of armor, it can be any sort of clothing, you make IT! eg: leather jacket...do some hacking,find the information within the matrix and put that into your coat. wierd high tech S7it like that will be included in the matrix, cool huh?

    5. This also goes back to 3. The game has the WHOLE matrix inside, all the cool places you saw in the movie are actually in the game!

    6. You control your characters future allies, for instance, either work for the machines,humans,merovigian and all those "programs" or be a free charater and move between them all as you please.

    7. No need to buy clothing obviously.  You can your appearance at anytime. ( no more saving up for those real mad looking pants.

    8. there is no money. Information is the "money"

    9. You can meet the characters from the movies, but it would be hard to meet them, Very hard. So it is something you can brag about.

    10. There are many Npc's you will incounter which you will have to fight, you should keep in mind that alot of these npcs will be "programs" which means they will come in all shapes and forms, ranging from vampires to old grannies. Also there are agents. "when you see an agent, ou do what we do, you run, you run your ass off", just like the movies. But if you have a good enough character, im sure you'll put up a fight with ONE. also remember that agents are "pack hunters", they dont wander alone.

    11. You cannot be neo, so dont spend countless days in the game trying to think of happy thoughts to fly, it wont work, it aint neverland.

    12. Closed Beta has began, Sign up at the website: www.thematrixonline.com 
          Open Beta is rumored it will start in late July. But im pretty sure it wont be till Mid-August.

    13. Release date: November 2004

    14. Monolith are making the game.

    15. the game follows on after the third movie, neo is gone, zion and the machines have alot of tension between the two and the players will be newly awaken red pills.

    16. Create your own faction(group), battle against other factions. PvP will be at a whole different level. oh and did i mention bullet-time?! you can battle more than one person at a time. So if you wanna fight a big tough lvl 20, but you only lvl 12, get a buddy to jump in during mid fight and land a few blows.

    17. also, relating back to the agents. Agents are part of all of the unplugged. so anyone that hasnt been unplugged, could turn into an agent, so dont make yourself noticed in a busy street, u'll be running for miles.

    hope this has helped anyone wanting info on the game.

    peace out                          -Valkyre
