I wouldn't even be opposed to Smith, so long as it's done properly.  It's really been on auto-pilot and that's what is so annoying.  I'm talking:

  • Mass spawns on players outdoors (i.e. zombie spawns during Halloween), not just mission ambushes.
  • Appearances by the main virus throughout the anniversary period where he infects others and wrecks havoc on the system.
  • Perpetual downpour of rain, lightning and thunder (maybe even cranked up to max)
  • All bluepill models replaced with Smith model
  • All exiles models replaced with Smith model and set to aggro on any player, regardless of level.
  • Sky should be blackened (like Halloween)
  • Random appearances by story characters asking for help to fight off the virus.
  • Maybe implement a plot device to end the virus once and for all and reward a player with perpetual green flame per server for assisting in its final purge.

We all know that anniversary events aren't considered canon but that doesn't mean it can't be epic.  amirite?

ive never had an anniversary event before, so even if they spawn loads of clowns that tackle me everywhere i go and squirt me in the face with water from fake flowers pinned to their tops ill think its awesome

 

allhough i reckon they should make Jacka$$ RSI's and have them run round mega city doing stunts like going off stairs in trolleys or NFL tacklign themselves into hardlines

They aren't going to reinvent the wheel this time around, I can promise you that (considering we don't really have an MxO development team at the moment). 

Best we can hope for is the same Smith event with maybe some new Smith Virologist rewards.  Expect anything more and you'll be let down.

This would simply be awesome.  I'll even sub two more accounts if soe finds a way to pull this off.

Garu and Shinryu have some good ideas but, when you boil it down, I'm in favour of anything so long as it shows we aren't down expletive creek without a paddle.

That's pretty optomistic.

I like all of these suggestions except the black sky.  It's just to hard to see.  Make the sky red like it was during the 7.whatever archs.

Also being attacked by the exiles might get a little annoying.

Why not just have Smith rain down from the sky?  We could call it "It's Raining Smith!"

No updates from Walrus?  I thought its supposed to start March 19th or so?

Why the wall of silence?  Its getting close. 

It feels like there is literally no one working on MxO besides a very occasional post from Virrago.

Is this MxO HQ?:
