Its sadning to see this happen to the game. I certainly used the AIM client quite often for MxO, and now all of ket and eroz's work on an aim bot is shattered.
-
FUCK FUCK FUCK DAMN SHIT FUCK FUCK!
-
LOL i was wondering what you were goin to say about that T :s
-
=/ ... HOORAY!!!
it's like they planned this all along =/
-
I hope the items look cool. Aim is a blow to the communication though.
-
*slams head on desk*
-
SOB's.... Well I haven't created additional charcters on Vector yet so I guess I'll do such so that my main character will have both the enhanced items. I suggest you all do the same.
-
Yeah but I highly doubt it will be a tradeable item... but it is safe to try and plan for it anyway.
-
The Wachowski brothers need to be bullet-raped. Repeatedly. Through the face if the option is avaliable.
-
Well.... at least if we can easily transfer the buddy lists over, hey?
-
O_O
wtf? why would they take aim out? do sony and america online not get along? ^_^
yeah... (http://www.garmentdistrict.com/store/popculture/familyguy/playwell_sm.jpg)

I am so buying that shirt
-
That my friends is BULLSHIT! If I wasn't worried that saying what T said would get me kicked for indecent exposure of small vocabulary or something along those lines ID BE RIGHT THERE WITH YA T!
Well.... at least if we can easily transfer the buddy lists over, hey?
Destyn, thats pointless. My MxO aim consisted of the faction's MxO aim accounts... why would i tranfer the buddy list... IF NOBODY EXISTS ON IT!?! (Yea little Lewis Black style for ya Sared :) ) Well this is great, fucking great.. AT LEAST WE GET THOSE SEXY ITEMS HUH GUYS!? THATS A FUCKING INSULT! I WANT 2 MIL INFO SO I CAN BUY SOME DAMN TACTIC BOOSTERS, BETTER THAN ANY DAMN JACKET OR SUNGLASSES, and my hotbars are full with USEFUL shit. -shakes head- Why cant they impliment some halfway decent items and not just give them to us? Its like... if they give it to everyone then everyone will have it at their disposal and the scales are even again. They arent giving anyone the upper hand by giving them +5 vt vd and ct... I may use them if theres a bad person using hyper dodge >.< and in that case i doubt the 5ct for 10 seconds will really help me all that much. -sigh- SOB... -cough- SOE needs to stop insulting us like this and actually make the game worth playing. The Matrix has such a huge fanbase that if they spend more time on this it could make more money than EQ... I doubt SWG but who cares that game sucks >.< Anyways. Im pissed. Now we need a thread to post our AIM names so we can still talk to each other. And Eroz and Ket's bots will still be helpful, they will just have to get everyone whos on AIM/Trillian at the same time they are on MxO, plus when im not in MxO im on aim as well, so it can tell me to jack in and such. :) Oh well im still angry... >: ( Grr

Uhhh think you missed my point by a mile there Myst. They said they're removing AIM, they didn't say there would be no in-game chat (in fact they said there would be in-game chat). That implies some kind of buddy list at least.... so it would surely be a matter of transferring the names over?

Harder for some, Desytn. ;) :p
-
And what are the VD and VT going to be good for anyway! In every Viro build I've ever used, my VT and VD were maxed through abilities, and it's not like those 5 points would make a difference in memory even if I were content with that sometimes bonus. Maybe, just maybe, I'll use the CT boost just before a sneak attack to make sure it goes through, but in the levels where it matters, 5 points is worthless.
These clothes better look cool as hell.
-
Walrus also mentioned that MxO would be receiving an ingame mail system similar to SWG sometime down the line. The way he spoke of it, was basically that they were removing AIM to make room for the SOE chat and ingame mail system
-
Chat I get... ingame mail though? Is that how new missions will be handed out do you reckon? Or do you think they might make it more subversive...
-
Just for your information, the reason they had AIM in the first place was because AOL Time Warner? Anyone remember mergers? Yes it sucks veryly, all that hard work for makeing things work is now down the drain, but instead of running like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off, or n00bs screaming 'WTF? OMG?! Haxx!1!'
Lets try to remember that we are a Faction of smart people and we will figure something out, so lets stop bitching and start working on what we can do, such as will the new clients be completely cut off from outside messagers?
-
Well, we still have TS ;)
Does it really matter if you can't talk to people outside the game though? If we have TS?
-
aim gone woopi doo :S :'(
-
Well it kind of puts a damper on the AIM BOT. Also, not everyone I talk to is in TeamSpeak, and I have never once in this game used the /t command to have private conversations. Initiate it with a /tell. and continue in a window through AIM when they reply. So... yeah, my mode of communication is going to change drasticly.
-
Apart from the bot, MxO was heralded with the AIM integration.
I'm sure that was a main feature that got the limelight when MxO was still in prodcution (was still?).
They are removing a feature that I'm sure is listed on the box.
I want my money back ;)
-
Am I the only one who kinda likes that change? First of all, I will miss the AIM integration. I tallowed us to stay connected no matter if in game or not. My girlfriend also loved being to actually get a hold of me when I wouldn't answer the phone.
SOEs chat systems are wonderful. chat rooms, inter-server chats, more options. I invite it.
-
I'm not fazed, I never liked using AIM before if I'm honest
-
So now that AIM is no longer integrated in the game, I wonder how long it will be until AOL turns off the @thematrixonline.com account names...
-
SOE chat system might be better, but it not going to be in game for a few months.
-
Ive noticed that the you can send pms to players just by guessing whos in game.. which isnt that bad but still we have no idea whos in game which sucks :(
-
*sniffle* I want both chat systems.
-
wow white you scared me hahah your anger scares me hahaha
