You mean City of Hero's isnt the Matrix online? Dammit! Title: MMOG News 5/13/04: E3 Redux Post by: HaemishM on May 13, 2004, 02:44:37 PM iEntertainment boasts a game called "Splatberry Pie" on their website. I was too cowed in fear to investigate further, but it sounds like what the developers will be eating when this game flops. Along with crow, for ever claiming to have "Internet smoothing technology." If they manage to sell that, I have some "anti-assmuncher debugging software" for sale.
Sega publishing Matrix Online. So now a developer with no experience in MMOG's is being published by a publisher with no experience in MMOG's. OY. Title: MMOG News 5/13/04: E3 Redux Post by: cevik on May 13, 2004, 02:57:48 PM I updated the article to include some CoH news that SonicPurge and Signe linked to in other threads.
Title: MMOG News 5/13/04: E3 Redux Post by: stray on May 13, 2004, 05:29:03 PM I know I'm putting myself at risk here by sayin' this...But the Matrix Online actually seems impressive (and no, I absolutely fucking hate the movies). I've been dogging it since Day 1, but after taking a closer look: If they deliver what they say they will, then the combat system will definitely be a step up (some non-combat stuff looks pretty cool too, like the stealther missions, hacking, the sheer size of the game world, the ability to move inside any building, etc.).
Title: MMOG News 5/13/04: E3 Redux Post by: Roac on May 13, 2004, 08:22:24 PM Yeah, I'll second stray. It sounds... hopeful. It's the type of thing you could go all fanboi over, or crap over, and with about the same weight of argument. They could just duplicate everything already done... but in a virtual virtual anime world. They could really change how advancement and such are handled, with the fact that you can instantly learn skills (as in the movie) - or that skill advancement is placed with "available points" advancement, and you just get UO with auto-respec.
Again, too little info to know. Title: MMOG News 5/13/04: E3 Redux Post by: Riggswolfe on May 13, 2004, 11:42:39 PM Did anyone here besides Schild sign up for beta? I was tempted but didn't.
Title: MMOG News 5/13/04: E3 Redux Post by: Velorath on May 14, 2004, 12:29:10 AM I signed up mostly because it looks like an urban combat sort of MMO so I"m curious as to how it plays. Don't really care one way or the other about the movies. Even if the game doesn't suck I'm probably not too likely to play it come retail, but it could end up surprising me.

I wasn't even tempted, but who knows, if I hear fun things about it from people already in the beta, I might give it a shot.

I sign up for every beta. |
