General / New Morpheus mission
« on: May 26, 2005, 09:49:28 am »
This mission rocked!  Best critical mission so far.

As for the lack of reward, I've heard other people say the same thing.  Check your inventory.  It looks like a code analyzer tool.

Off Topic / Naruto+The Matrix=Seperated at Birth?
« on: May 24, 2005, 10:40:01 am »
Saw this a while back.  Very cool and it works extremely well.  I've never seen Naruto, but I saved this simply because it's a matrix fan video.

General / should we work for Lock?
« on: May 23, 2005, 10:07:50 am »
Morpheus' recent actions have made me lose some respect for him.  Threatening the truce and detonating bombs all over the place isn't helping anybody.  Sure, rescuing large masses of blue pills means more soldiers for Zion, but it could also mean more soldiers for the Machines and Merovingian.  And what about the blue pills that choose to stay in the matrix?  Ejecting people from the matrix against their will is wrong.  He is showing a complete lack of regard for everyone.

I don't want to work for Locke, but Morpheus isn't exactly showing himself to be an ideal leader either as far as I'm concerned.  There are much safer and reasonable ways to go about finding Neo's remains.

Who knows.  Great men are always considered crazy at first.

General / Event meeting, Saturday, Club Messiah - 7pm PST (?)
« on: May 20, 2005, 10:17:57 am »
Club Messiah is in downtown.  Not sure where, but I know it's a restricted area for me.  I think we should definetely show up.

I'm going to be leveling as well if nothing event-wise is going on.  I'm level 27, and I'd like to make 30 before monday.  Does anyone else get major lag when running missions with a team?  I've been soloing for the past week just so I can gain experience without crashing every hour.

General / For the day of the big event (RP-related)
« on: May 19, 2005, 10:16:24 am »
Excellent idea.  Would we all be meeting at a designated HL before making our way to Mara C?  Personally I think it would be cooler if we were dispersed throughout Mega City, chilling at various HL's until someone gave the go-ahead to teleport to Mara.

Would we all be showing up in costume?  If so, I'll need someone to code me a white trenchcoat.  The closest I have is pale green.  :)

Off Topic / XBox 360? Sony and Nintendo give run for money!
« on: May 18, 2005, 10:27:36 am »
In terms of appearance, the PS3 and Xbox360 are both ugly.  The Rev is freakin' beautiful.

On performance, they all look to be pretty damn powerful.  I know I'll be getting a PS3, and I may spring for a Rev.

« on: May 18, 2005, 10:22:24 am »
Hehe, it kinda freaked me out.  I felt it was best to just keep my mouth shut and wait for things to cool off.  I don't think it was so bad that an apology was needed.  You were just speaking your mind, dude.  Nothing wrong with that.  :)

General / Idea to Organize the Faction
« on: May 18, 2005, 10:17:57 am »
Like most, I'd like to participate in PvP as well as RP.  If we decide to go through with this, I've already decided to be on the RP unit, but there are times when I just want to take down some reds.  I have to admit, it feels pretty good.

General / Character Migration / PvP vs. Social
« on: May 17, 2005, 11:06:05 am »
I like our home on Enumerator.  Despite the dumbasses that like to ruin our fun, we still have a lot of respect with the other Zion factions, as well as some Mach and Merv factions.  I created my first character on Method because I wasn't experienced at all with this MMO stuff, and I didn't want PvP to ruin my learning experience.  Adrenaline convinced me to switch over to Enum and it's been a blast.  I think moving to a non-PvP server after spending so much time on a PvP server would be boring.  We'd all be standing around bored waiting for the next event.

Let the assholes be assholes.  I've been ganked tons of times, but I don't give them the satisfaction of getting mad about it.  I was getting ganked by Continuity last night in Sai Kung Central.  I shrugged it off and made a small mention of it on TS.  I didn't specifically ask for help, but before I knew it, Broin, Vinzeru and Doan showed up to put Continuity in their place.  I just thought that was really cool.  Then about half an hour later, there were about 20 Zionites at that hardline ready to blast any reds that came out.  The cooperation and teamwork really put a smile on my face.

And on the issue of FA's reputation.  Our reputation is ours to make or break.  We have to work a little bit if we want to earn respect.  I don't think moving to a new server will do much to help us.  I agree with Likwidneo that it may only hurt us in the end.  Every Mach and Merv faction jumping up and down with glee cheering about how they ran us out of town.  Then there's the possibility of other Zion factions losing respect for us for running away.  Worst case scenario is that we will be shunned entirely.  People won't respect us unless we give them a reason to do so.  What happened to that music video we were planning?  Or the parties we were organizing?  Less talk, more action!

It appears that the devs are working on various systems to keep the dumbasses in their place.  But there's only so much they can do before the storyline of the game is taken from our hands entirely.  It's up to us to put people in their place, while keeping our heads cool and not get on a power trip.

If it comes down to us moving, I will go along with it.  I've only been with FA for a couple weeks, and you guys have done a good job of convincing me to stay.

Off Topic / Game runs like shit!
« on: May 16, 2005, 02:13:45 pm »
I'm able to run the game pretty well on medium detail with 512mb of ram.  I've turned down the pedestrian/NPC count to almost zero.  Exterior and interior distance levels are at their half-way points, as well as weather detail.  I don't notice much difference in performance when I have anti-aliasing turned on, so I usually just leave it off.

I get a little bit of rubber-banding and lag when I enter a building or district, but it usually lasts for no more than a second or two.  This also happens when I'm coming in for a landing on a hyperjump.

I plan on upgrading to two gigs of ram within the coming months.

My guess is that it's a server-side issue.

General / Does Morpheus know?
« on: May 16, 2005, 10:20:33 am »
A friend of mine posed this question to me, and to my surprise, I didn't have an answer.  I was explaining how Morpheus is doing whatever he can to find Neo's remains, even if it means breaking the truce.  Not sure if this was covered in beta or not.

Does Morpheus know that Neo was the sixth anomaly, and that there will soon be another "One"?

I can only assume that he doesn't know, judging by his actions.  Why would he be so determined to find Neo's body if he knew that another One will eventually come along?  But if he does know about the past Ones, then that must mean there is something significant or special about Neo's remains.

Your thoughts?
