For those of you who aren't subscribed or have issues recieving it:
http://thematrixonline.warnerbros.com/newsletter/MxO_newsletter_101504.html
-
Yeah I received it too. Pretty interesing stuff. Especially about reputation and crews.
Oh that and the fact that Neo is dead. Sorry to all of you who were hoping to meet him :-)
-
I've subscribed and I just double checked I had subscribed, but I didn't recieve the newsletter.
I may be posting this too early, but I have a hotmail account and I haven't received the email.
Anyone else got this problem?
-
Well I received it at my hotmail account so that's probably not the problem.
-
Nice that does help out a bit.

NEO IS DEAD.
A great line to shut the noobs up, but doesn't this mess up the "story" (even tho the game aint live yet):
There are also those who believe that Neo is still alive...
We just had the headline he's dead, and this should really be a RPing newsletter of sorts? This combined with the current story about Morpheus perhaps trying to find the one, or create another "faction" for believers, AND the fact that one of the missions a guy tells you Neo is alive (albeit this is dismissed by Tyndall)...
it still does not rule out the possibility of him coming back. The headline, and upcoming story, could all be one big "twist" of kind that turns out he's alive!
Think what you want, there are many directions to go in because of the philosophy of the matrix - perhaps he didn't really die (he has died before). Perhaps Neo DID pick the same path as all the other "ones", and Zion will STILL be destroyed, maybe the same thing happened all the other times...
thats another thread completely tho, heh.
-
Aye, and perhaps the Architecht was shitting him, just like the Oracle was.
-
Aye, I love that word lol.... <---irrelevant I know...
EDIT: Also arrgh, used with Aye, can make a deadly combination.
-
Well, the Matrix is loosely based on judgement day in the bible, with Neo as christ and Smith as the Anti-christ, or so I am lead to believe, and I am also lead to believe, by the Christain church, that Christ rose again from the grave, so surely Neo can do that, or is my abstract logic completely and inanely stupid?
-
Well, you have some good ideas Ajax, I've never thought of it that way.
But the christian church rises up from the gave/goes to heaven to *escape* the Anti-Christ/Time of tribulation etc etc.
Of course after that there is one last battle, when the Anti-Christ rises up like couple million people in an army to wage war on God and they all die. Humans I mean. The earth's going to be in so much blood that it'll be up to like the neck of a horse.
Of course I'm just translating the bible here folks, not taking into account whether one believes in the stuff or not, so don't be offended.
-
Well, I did say loosely.
-
LoL, Yes you did. ;)
-
I didn't receive it either. I have been subscribed for a long time. I double-checked, and when I tried to subscribe again, it said my email address was already subscribed. It must have gone to my bulk mail. :(
-
tbone I can forward it to ya if you want.
*sobs* at Neo's death confirmation.
-
Hey!!! I want a cool new sig!
-
You wil have one, just contact Gillette. He hoards them like gold. Damn Dwarfs.
-
the question now is how much reputation do you need to become a captain let alone how much to run a guild, im up to like over 100 if not 200 zion rep. does that make me leader? lol :P
-
I have like 1500 faction but I don't think the crew formation systems working in game yet.
-
saitek i dont need your backtalk! lol hack off 2 of those zeros from your rep...i dont care how you do it, just do it :P
-
Well, I have ~2300 zion points...
-
Jeez... talk about being out of the loop. Edit: to likwidtek.
-
I read the newsletter too, that was pretty interesting... however, now that Neo is confirmed to be dead, as opposed to people wanting to meet Neo, they'll probably try to convince others that they ARE Neo!! Stupid? Yes. Unlikely? Yes. Impossible? Yes.
-
I saw a great cartoon of a projected idea of what Mxo would be like. It was just a huge mob of neo's each one spelt differently. They can't help it if they are not as creative as a two tonne hippo, it is just genes.
-
I've already run into 0ne and slapped him in the face hard. When I told him how stupid he was for choosing that name, he said" ur just jelous cuz u dint get it!"
Oh, btw, I did get the newsletter in. It just came a few hours late I guess.
-
Yeah one thing that bugs me more then anything in games is people who rip there names off. Back when I played Counter Strike alot it seamed like every server has atleast one guy with a name from MGS or FF7.
-
I think the headline was to confirm that Neo is indeed dead, so that all of us know, and shut up about it, yet the statement that "some believe Neo is still alive" was just so show that there are certain people within the Matrix that refuse to believe Neo sacraficed himself and that he's still out there somewhere, and so they are going to commit their time looking for him, even though we know it's a lost cause. Lit bit of irony I guess.
-
They arn't that cruel. To put a real spin on the whole thing, and still following the train of thought that neo represents Christ, couldn't it be possible to call Christ dead during the three days between his death and his resurrection? That made you think, didn't it.
-
Well it certainly has been more then 3 days then he's died ;)
I tend to think that they did it for more practical and logical reasons, money and interest. They don't wish to lose both, but they do sorta want to the more inclined people know he's gone.
-
Gotta love the picture of Morpheus, so cool to see him digitalized, even if it was just his back....
