Matrix Online - Who'll be playing && Thoughts

[ikonia]

well, the almost endless development time for the matrix online is coming to an end and its almost release time.

There have been some threads discussing this game but at the time the info available was limited.

Now a lot more is known and the reviews from the testers appear to be split 50/50 on the game.

Who'll be playing ?

What do people think of this ?

I have never really been into MMORPG but I might give this one a bash since I love the films so much, it all depends on if they charge us and how much!

yer, id love to play but dont want to have to keep paying to play as i cant garentee i'll get my moneys worth so if theres a monthly fee, i'll stay away which is a shame

Hopefully there will be a demo out.

played the beta, really extensive leveling system, its not difficult to level, but there are so many options - aikido, karate, kungfu are just three options if you go melee combat. The sheer amount of leveling options should make the game a success by itself.

as i said in another thread, i played the beta and really didnt get on with it - something about it i really didnt like.

I will however give this game ago when they release a downloadable trial to see if the retail catches my attension abit more.

Try Anarchy Online. Much better than the matrix online game. I played the Beta for a week and then decided it was to repeative, with "average" graphics and rubbish physics.

Overall I was not impressed and even AO gets a better rating in my eyes.

Something about that game strikes me as not fun...I mean meh...the graphics on one hand are terrible. IT is as if I am playing without my contacts on or something like that. Kinda reminds me of FFVIII graphics...I loved that game though.

[directhex]

rubbish visuals, naff control method and combat is boring.

I for one will be giving it a miss
