What is so horrible about Matrix Online? I don't know of many resources to read up on it with and I constantly hear you game-savvy folk talking about what a dissapointment it is so could you explain exactly what is making this game bad?

As an MMO it lacks the neccessities for a real solid guild - it has no real raid capability, and grouping both destroys any matrixy feel to it and is boring as shit.

Combat is classic rock paper scissors shit and requires stupid amounts of luck to win. There's no real skill to it.

To top it off, there's so much made of the Zionist/Agent/merovingian faction system, which is nothing more intricate than the velious-era EQ faction system. In fact, I'd consider it pretty much as basic, and Velious was released years and years ago.

It also is really fucking buggy. But that's just one of the problems.

Any others?

You never raided a exile hideout or grouped for a mission?

Your options for fighting increases as you level up and learn skills, also filling up your hot bar adds to your favor.

I haven't really seen any benifits from the factions either, other than you can cross the other factions and their areas will become more hostile towards you. I believe the full game will take more advantage of it, cause I keep seeing screen shots of stuff I've never encountered in the game. Plus the major characters in the game and cinema's.

We can all clearly see that Landlord has no idea what he is talking about. The fact that the Matrix Online is slapped with the word "Matrix" which we all know is based on the movie, makes him froth over it.

From what I've seen from the Matrix Online, it doesn't seem to much in par with other MMORPGs. Stuff like Lineage 2, EQ2, WoW, Final Fantasy XI, and SWG have a lot to offer and Matrix Online, really... doesn't seem at all interesting unless you're a hardcore Matrix fan. The game sounds too plain and the whole concept of the Matrix combined with usually MMORPG stuff just does not seem to work out.

Hay landlord are you going to steal all of these posts too?

I KNOW YOUR GAMES, REZO.

Damn, foiled again.....

That's why I was asking so I can know whether or not to buy it. What exactly did I talk about or argue my point on that I wouldn't have had any idea what I was talking about?

Well, since you said "Any Others", and I personally think that mmm, while he is pretty rough on some games, at least he gives an honest opinion, you make it sound like you don't want to hear what factual stuff that mr monkey is saying. :(

Thus... I don't like you :3

No I just wanted to know if that was the jist of things he thought wrong with it or if that was only a few of many.
