You might want to read these notes Orien: The Matrix Online 2005 Halloween Masquerade Specially this part: Through the morning of November 1, players will find special Jack-O-Lanterns placed around the Mega City.
That seem to go against previous statement and what my post is based on.
You might be still here Orien, but the numbers are quite low. 40,000 isn't much and if so like I said why limit you're audience.

They won't be. I quote,
"Sorry, but the masks will officially turn off the morning of November 1 when we restart the servers to clean up after the Masquerade. Our original plan wasn't even to begin until Friday, but decided it would be easier to get everything going as soon as the update is in--no extra restarts. "

The masks you find for Haloween don't grant any buffs - so I doubt that the "7th Mask" will do so. Overall I seriously doubt that they will just give away Assassin masks - unbuffed ones maybe
And - while I'm glad about new visual effects for Precise Blow and Energized Attacks - how about fixing the fact that U cannot stagger or daze your opponent when using them FIRST before making new animations?

i agree with the Energised Attacks and Precise Blows bug, i think, though i havnt thoroughly tested, that Calm Body also has the same bug. very annoying, even more so then the animation

100% not bugged - I use Calm Mind/Calm Body all the time and have no problems at all dazing or staggering someone

"The Archaeologist has moved his digs to the Historical District."
Now is this a new neighborhood contact or is this the guy that was standing by the Mara Central Hardline? If it is a new contact then where did he move from?
"Silver Dragon gang Bosses no longer spawn as "Some Person" in the International District"
There are also the gang Gold Bloods whose bosses spawn as "Some Person" in Sai Kung.
"Ginjiro has displaced George as the Silver Dragons' leader"
Now I thought it was a little funny that George was used as a name for the Silver Dragons boss because I got the referance th Saint George who killed dragons and thought that was a good little easter egg and very clever.
Looks like this will be a good patch, but now what about an answer to the percise blows ability hampering the chances of putting the enemy into a special state (dazed etc) Is that going to be fixed or is that the way it is meant to be?
To Miggesch - A FYI if you use Punishing blows you do get the special States. To do this you have
to load Percise Blows, but not activate it. Activate Punishing Blows. Calm Body does not have any effect
on the ability to cause special states.

We never talked about Punishing Blows. We always talked about Precise Blow and Energized Attacks. And if yoiu read my last post - in there I am saying that I am 100% sure that Cakm Mind/Calm Body is NOT bugged

The reference to "through November 1" is continued from the previous paragraph, which states that the event begins with Update 37. Update 37 will be released either Thursday or Friday morning, depending on a few issues, so the event will be at least 4 days long.

Hope, it is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength, and your greatest weakness.
I'm sure we all certain hopes for this patch!
