Post by: Tbone on November 30, 2006, 06:11:52 pm: Maybe Hello Kitty Island Adventure? I hear it's fun. Though, according to the IQ-challenged, I already play WoW? That's the latest I've heard:

"Hey look, it's Tbone. Taking a break from WoW?"

The other MMO we've been keeping tabs on is Darkfall Online, but who knows how that game will turn out. It's my theory that MxO will be replaced with the DC Comics MMO currently in development.

I'd go for Darkfall if the choice was mine, but we'll have to see how the game is.

Post by: Avzeke (Khr0n1k) on December 01, 2006, 01:48:14 pm: Well i have a wow account and i think that would be a fun game to go to just for raids cause i always wanted to get a lvl 60 and go raiding with some good guys and it would be awesome to have a 40man raid with you guys to get some phat loot. I only got a lvl like 36 cause really good people to play with are hard to find, even though i have 6 or 7 real life friends that play on the same server :(

Even though WoW would be a good game to go to, I think I need something new to play, something totally fresh where like it would come straight out to launch right when we started so we could play through like how we did MxO and go through the evolution of the game and get to be uber for completing uber stuff first and all that cool stuff you cant do if you just go join a game that has been out for a couple years, minus that fact that we went through most of the content in beta for mxo, and also hopefully the game wouldn't die shortly after release kinda like MxO did.

I didn't like eve. Due to the nature of the game, there isn't that much to do. Battles were quite fun, but the community side.... well players literally passed like ships in the night.

I really liked that MS space game -- Frontier? Ahh, can't remember, but anyway I figured EVE would be good, but nah - not for me.

I tried out Neocron 2, and am looking forward to Shadowrun-Online (not the Xbox based one, this is something different), but I doubt that one will ever get off the ground. I just want a good future MMO, and the Matrix Online is the only one that fits that.

That made me LOL hard. :D

But yeah, Huxley has looked cool for the last HOW MANY years that its been in development? I swear, sometimes a company needs to wait until a little closer to release date to start making serious press announcements. I'm sure its all based on somebody's stock options going up or down...

WoW end-game content is amazing by the way. Much more satisfying than MxO has ben, or ever will be. EvE is much more about player economics. (You can buy pr0n with your in-game monies FFS)

Post by: Anonymous on December 02, 2006, 05:40:41 am: I think he means more of an RPG oriented Shadow run that takes place online much like an MMO. The Shadowrun cross-platform title is an FPS. I just recently signed up for the beta of Shadowrun for 360. Anyways I have to savor MxO, so my account is not going anywhere.

But in the event the Matrix goes offline, I would like to mess around with Huxley, Darkfall, and of course Stargate Worlds, because cool mythological references and advanced alien weapons makes for fun.. Not to mention I'm hoping we can choose between being Human, Jaffa, Goauld, Tokra, Asgard, Wraith, Ancient, etc.. The possible race types are what I'm awaiting to find out. Oh and MUO(Marvel Ultimate Online) sounds cool, plus it's designed by Cryptic Studios(CoH,CoV).

Shadowrun Online is a cyberpunk thriller massively-multiplayer online roleplaying game for the PC and Xbox 360 that takes the player deep into a web of intricate storyline and intrigue

So, this looks like a user-made version. And there it is:

They're taking the FPS and using it as an MMO... interesting. I'd be interested to see how they intend to pull it off, whether it will be a private server affair or such. Still, it does look cool in a Deus-Ex-II-again kinda way.

I'm the same way. MxO gets pretty borring after a bit of playing. I just reactivated my WoW account and have only spent a few (10) hours getting my UI the way I like it. So many of my UI stuff doesn't work anymore. =(

Just Curious if you guys wanna team up in there. I should be back in Mxo soon too. They don't sell the game cards in Best Buy anymore, i really think they want people to stop playing and the only reason SOE bought it was to let it die to promote they're other online games.

I'm saying that the name "Furious Angels" has somewhat of a basis in the Matrix universe. If they make a Warcraft movie, god forbid, and they use Rob Dougan's music, again god forbid, I may rescind my previous comment.

There may be other gaming groups that call themselves "Furious Angels", but there is only one FA as far as I'm concerned.

I just don't think we need to branch out into other games. MxO is still alive and kicking, and this is where our roots are.

Post by: Anonymous on January 07, 2007, 12:48:48 pm: Ugh... I could never ever ever goto WoW... I played the 14 day trial... I was bored with the game before the trial was even over. The PvP Arenas were kinda fun but not enought to keep my attention and way too much down time.

Now Age Of Conan on the other hand... this game looks great. It has the innovation and new ideas that drew me to MXO and not to mention it looks great! Some of the cool features are it has real time combat... it's an action RPG... no more autoattack. you use 6 different dirrections to attack from head, stomach, left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg. These will be used to form all sorts of different cool combos. And every character and object has collision detections... so in combat if you swing your sword and it goes threw 3 baddies then you hit all three of them. The Massive PvP they have planned looks great... on thing people are going to be able to do is form formation for stat bonuses, etc. So gone are the days of hordes of people randomly fighting all over the place... this is war now. Personally I'm gonna have fun with the "drunken brawling" pvp mini-game. Whenever you go into and inn or tavern you have the option to start drinking. Once you start you can't use you equipment and your stats are meaningless. Depending on the kind of alcohol and combonation of drinks you have you get different stats and stats like "bliss" where you take more hits or "staggering" where your bobbing around so drunk your harder to hit. You fight hand to hand... fists, elbows, head, knees, feet, etc. or you can find weapons in the bar... table, chair, bottle, etc. I find it awesome that they've put so much attention and detail to a mini-game like this. This is apparent in every aspect of the game it's definately worth checking out. Oh and BTW this is going to be a Mature rated game... soooo no more kiddie mmo... lots of blood, gore, violence, sex, innuendo, etc. There are a ton more cool features in this game that are definately worth some attention.
