Ok, before I go into detail.  I have not been that active the past few weeks.  Between finals for school and starting an internship on full time hours (with 2 hours of driving each day to boot) I have not had much free time.

However, last week I spent 3 days on various sites building together the computer I want to acutally start building next month...only to find out that Im loosing this.  Why?

I know subscriptions have gone down, but why not close 2 of the servers.  Hell close all 3 and restart with just 1 (so everyone would have to relevel), and just leave it on the station pass.

Sure, we wouldnt get any new updates.  Sure, any bugs floating around the system would stay there.  But if there arent new updates there shouldnt be any new bugs (I'd hope), and there'd be only one server to worry about instead of 3.  I've loved the time i've spent on here over the last (almost) 4 years and I dont want to loose that.  This was the first true multiplayer game I ever joined and its a shame that we have to loose it when there is still an active crowd wanting to be jacked in.

Ok, this isnt a question as to how to disable the code, I know how to do that.  I am wondering if it is possible to enable it to perminantly run while jacked in? I'd love to experience the matrix as if you were looking through Neo's eyes (not to mention the stories and vids you could make).  Anyone know how? or if it is even possible?

I was going through some comic books earlier today and I noticed how a lot of them had MxO advertised on the back page.  Then I ended up finding a copy of the MxO magazine itself.  It was so weird reading it and seeing all the talk about it...the player spotlights, the district map, the information.

Did anyone else get any these? I only got that one.

I can get two berets, either male or female, and would like to trade them for the merv and mach items from 12.1.  Hit me up with a /t in game, email, or post here.

Thanks.

I have been farming the override functions in Baldwin for a while, and I as anyone else who farms them knows, they like viral attacks.  This is where the problem is...

They started logic cannon 2.0, then ran to the other side of me.  after they get to the other side of me i get hit with logic cannon 2.0.  Correct me if Im wrong, but arent you required to stay still to deply that attack? Or are they not bound by that law being a NPC....just wondering.

I was watcing "how i met your mother" the other day and this scene came up...

all I  could do was think about MXO and a few people I know who have cross gender characters, it made me laugh.

Does anyone know if there is a complete list of all lvl 45 enhanced/silenced guns?  I often farm out a lot of guns and just sell them, as it can be tedious checking to see if I still have them.

Hey all, I am just wondering about something.

I currently have both the lucian's launcher and valkarie shades, each with 3% viral damage.  I have the overdrive bandana with 10% viral damage, and i now have the sleepwalker pants with 3% viral damage.

However, are there any shirts, coats (outerwear), shoes, and/or gloves that have 3% viral damage?  I dont care if its a codable enhanced item, a collectors item, or a mission reward-type item, I am just wondering if any of them exist.  Thanks for any information you can give.

Seeing as how the Haloween event will start soon, I want to collect the one mask I dont have.  I have extra masks of the others, including trainman, if anyone wants to trade for it, or we can work out for me buying it directly.  reply here or hit me up in game.

Im wanting to get my hands on a few items, if I can....

lvl 50 armored/shielded Dark/Bright/(or plain) Red Teeshirt

lvl 50 armored/shielded Black plain slacks

lvl 50 armored/shielded black misene leather trench   (collarless or not, doesnt matter)

Or, if you have any of those items in an enhanced version, lvl 40 or above, I would gladly take them as that.  Let me know here or ingame with an email to Tygrius.

Thanks.

Even as his code solidified into the matrix near the hardline, he could already smell the smoke.  Looking towards the source of the disturbance, he could already picture what it must look like.

 "Operator?"

"Go ahead.  The area is clear, best I can tell."

He quickly began to head towards the smoke that still issued from the charred building.  A few people passed him, giving him a strange look at wearing such a large trench coat during the middle of the summer.  Finally, he rounded a final turn and could see the front of the building, smoke pouring out of the broken windows and the banners burnt and unreadable.

"Are all the bluepills out of the area?"

"Im not reading any, but im having trouble getting a clear scan.  Some of our hardware must of malfunctioned in the fire and its throwing the scanners for a loop."

"Understood."

With that he began to assess the situation closer.  The building was obviously in ruins.  Nevertheless, a smile crept onto his face.

"Is the template stored and ready to be accessed?"

"Confirmed.  Just get it done fast.  There has been too much heat in that area today."

"No punn intended right?"

 The smile on his face widened as he began to hack the area's subsystems, pulling out the general template of the building that had been placed there out of thin air so long ago.  After a few moments he could feel the strain on his mental concentration as the system accessed the required information to reload the building to its former state.

"I'm....almost.....there...."

He said, more to himself than to his operator.  Finally, he felt a wave of relaxation wash over him as the job was finished.  Taking a deep breath, he stared up at the bulding, repaired to its former grandor.  The signs were properly hung, the outer walls no longer tarnished by soot and burn marks.

"Mr. Andrews."

Turning quickly, he saw an agent walking towards him.

"Operator, get me out of here."

"......."

"You'll find your operator is not avaliable at the moment, Mr. Andrews.  You do not need to run though."

The agent spoke, as if reading his mind as he tried to figure out which path would be the best to take to escape.

"Do not think it has gone unnoticed what you just did, manipulating our system.  Moreso, we know what goes on here and continued operations will not be tolerated."

"Then what do you want with me now?"

"You may leave here, having fixed this area for us.  However, we will not stand by if you and the Merovingian lackys continue these attacks on the system."

"We haven't attacked them.  Not in this magnitude atleast."

"Nevertheless, any further attacks on this system will be dealt with.  You may leave, this time."

With a nod of his head, he watched as the agent turned and walked away.

"Tygrius, are you there?"

"Im here."

"What the hell was that?"

"An agent.  Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Well, if you are ready, I have a hardline waiting.  Im sending the cordinates now."

"Understood.  I've taken care of the business I came for."

Taking one more look at the building, he turned and headed back towards the hardline.  A smile crept back onto his face as he thought back on how easy the repairs were.

I am looking for clothing that contains:

 2% viral damage bonus with any level of viral accuracy bonus

 or

3% viral damage bonus....any other buffs, including viral accuracy bonus, are nice but not required.

If you have anything like that please send a /t or email ingame and we can work out a deal for them.

Having been watching matrix revolutions the last few days....over and over......Something has popped in my head during the seen in Club Hel.  the Merovingan states that "If you take something from me, you will pay the price."....along with "Of course I know.  It is my business to know."

So, what if Merv had plans for Sati as well.  However, he knew that the oracle planned to take her under her own care and therefore demanded the kill-code from Rama-kamdra in exchange for Sati being granted exile in the matrix?

Up until now, I had merely presumed he had meant that what was "taken from him" was the keymaker.  However, it was Neo, Trinity, and the Oracle who took the keymaker. 

So what do you think? Any chance that what the merovingan was upset about losing was Sati?

This is my first guide so I hope i provide an adquate amount of information.

 So, you have finally decided to get those bright, shiny red glasses, eh?  No problem.  It will take a little time but it is a fairly decent item to obtain.  Lets get working on them, shall we?

Jack into the Tabor Park West Hardline.  This is the closest hardline to where you must go.  Once there, head straight west towards Uriah (Industrial Park) and the Mars Industrial Storage building.  Outside the building will be a collector named Kimree...

<a

You dont need to talk to him at this point, just head inside and make your way towards the 4th floor.  Hyper speed or any movement accelator will help with this process for anyone at a level where all the nps, ranging from level 1 to 4 on the first through 4th floors, are grey.  For those who will still have to fight, I recomend sneak or disguise, unless you wish to fight them.  Having a higher level companion along with you is a great idea as well.

You need to get to the end of the forth floor and near the elevators towards the 5th floor...

As listed on the above map, there are two different zones that are important.  The first zone is where Barebones is located at.

This NPC is a lower level character, and not a threat to the higher level players. 

!!!DO NOT KILL HIM!!!

He must remain alive to spawn the headless that you must fight.

Now, let me tell you a little about these headless.  When they spawn, they spawn at your own level.  ex: I am level 45, so a 2-chevron level 45 (yellow) headless spawns.  However, they seem, to me atleast, to be more powerful than your normal run of the mill 2-chevron npc's at the yellow level.  They are infact quite strong. **I have been taking them on with a MA loadout, different loadouts may fare better against them**

When they spawn, move to the position on the map and fight them  there.  That spot is far enough away from Barebones that once you kill the headless you can recover your health before fighting the next one.  If you are too close to Bones, he will spawn a new headless once you kill the first.  The headless generally drop relatively good loot, but the main thing you should be concerned with are the HEADLESS FRAGS...

There are a total of 7 different frags, and you will need one of each.  Once you have each of them, head back outside to Kimree and talk to him.  When you talk to him you are going to want to select REQUIREMENT SET 2....

Read over it all if you like and hit trade.  Once you do you will finally have the shades!!!

The most important thing you should know about the shades are that while they give you a 10% increase to your IS regain rate, they also reduce your health regain rate by 10%.  I myself only wear them in non-combat scenerios.  However, they are now yours, so do what you wish with them and wear them with pride!!!

I just tried logging in and it said the recurssion server was closed.  anyone know how long this will be for?

(sorry if there is already a thread for it, i didnt see any in the recent topics)

Ok, a while ago I was randomlly talking with bluepills to see what they would say.  One of them mentioned a Dojo in Sobra shores.  I looked at sobra shore's description and once again this dojo is mentioned, as being ran by violet.  However, violet is in the club, as a mission contact.  I ran all of her missions to see if perhaps it was mentioned and nothing.  However, the thing I am curious about is that there are 2 different buildings in sobra shores that has doors on both the bottom floor, as well as the roof, but you cannot open them.

So, is this dojo real? and if so, is it accessable?

ok before i say anything else, this is not a thread askin where certain frags are.

 My question is...what is the usual drop rate of red frags? do they drop less as you become higer in lvl than the gangs who carry them?  I am lvl 43 and was farming for hacker objects in jurong.  i killed 50 (exactly) npc's and got a whole 3 frags.  is that around the right drop rate? is it low, high? are tehre certain areas to have a better change of frag drops?

This is my first attempt at a Matrix-themed story.  Enjoy.

            "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T PRINT IT!?!" screamed the man as he stared down upon the slightly older gentleman sitting at the desk.  He was so flustered with annoyance at the other that you could nearly hear his heart pounding.

            "Listen Compy, I am the editor of this paper and what I say goes," replied the second man in a firm and highly agitated voice.

            "Chief, please.  You and I both know there is a story here," began the man again.

            "You think there is a story, not me.  So what if a bunch of leather-clad idiots want to stand around phone booths.  Get me some real proof that there is something to the story or move on Mark."

            "Fine," he said with an air of determination as he turned to head out of the editor's office.  Mark Compy was determined to find the proof he needed to show the world that there was more going on outside than what was meant to be believed. 

            "How did it go buddy?" 

            Mark turned to see a smaller man walk up to him, bright eyed and excited at the possibility of a new story to track.

            "He wants proof JJ," said Mark as he sat down in his desk adjacent from the second reporter.

            "So what are you going to do?" JJ asked, unsure of what was in store for them.

            For a moment Mark waited, looking between his computer and JJ and then back again.  Finally after reading through an email he stood up and looked at JJ and said "If he wants proof, he'll get it."

****

            Mark leaned back in the seat of the taxi as it drove towards the Projects.  He looked up to see the bill was already over twenty dollars and he was still a good ten minutes from his apartment.  The rain was falling pretty steadily as he gazed out the window at the church in Camon.

            "Driver, pull over," the words were out of his mouth before he even realized he had said anything.  The taxi slid to a stop along side the road as Mark fetched for some money out of his pocket.  "Keep the change," he said as he exited the taxi and began to walk towards the church.

            "MOVE!"

Before he could even have a moment to prepare, Mark was thrown out of the way by a man dressed in a large leather coat.  He hit the ground hard as another man chased after the first and pulled a gun out, firing a few shots.  Mark stayed on the ground, frozen in shock as the first man fell.  An instant later his attacker was gone and Mark moved over to the fallen man.

"Buddy, buddy you ok?" The words seemed empty.  Mark could already tell this man was dead from the blood spreading across the ground.  After a moment he reached for his cell phone and began to dial the police.

"911 emergency," came the voice over the phone.

"Yes, I am calling to report a..."  Mark stopped dead in mid-sentence.  Another person, female, yet still clad in a long leather jacket was approaching.  She ignored Mark completely and made her way to the fallen man.

"911 emergency, are you there sir?" the voice came over the phone again as Mark stood there, watching as this woman stood over the man as if she was ready.

"Um, yah, I wanted to report a..." once again Mark stopped mid sentence as the slain man in front of him began to be surrounded by a greenish glow and rise back to his feet, alive and as if nothing had happened.

"*CENSORED* machines," the slain man began to say as he noticed Mark.  "*poop*, a bluepill, how much did he see?"

"Everything," Mark said as he hung the phone up.  "How did you...I saw you get shot."

"Listen kiddo, there are things in this world you aren't able to understand."

"Save the **bullcrud** for someone else, ok," Mark said to her, and amusing look of shock spreading across her face.  "Listen, I am a reporter.  It is my job to find out the truth."

"A reporter eh?" the slain man said, wiping some dust off of his jacket and looking at Will as if trying to make a decision.  "So, I take it you are after a story then?"

"I am after the truth," Mark proclaimed, squaring off with the two in front of him as he saw the woman pull a phone out of her pocket.

"Captain, I think we have a new recruit," she said into the phone.

"What do you mean by that?"  Mark asked, looking from the woman to the man.

The man smiled at Mark and ignored his question, continuing to be lost in thought on a decision to be made until the woman nodded at him.  "Well Mister..."

"Compy," Mark said.  "Mark Compy."

"Well Compy," the man continued on, "are you ready for your wake-up call?"

THE BEGINNING

Ok before i post this, if it has been discussed elsewhere i apologize...

Some of us go and spend hours at a time looking for these masks only to have them be "un-usable" come nov 8th and just sit in our inventory or email until next year.  So, my idea.....why not make the masks a non decompilable, lvl 50 disguise mask?

ok, i got 2 questions that some of you will find rather simple.

1.  how do you hide the hotbar and such so u can take full screen pictures?

2.  how do you take people off a block list? for some reason it says a few people are on my "ignore" or "block" list, but i cant remember ever adding anyone.

not that im complaining, but i was going against em near a hardline in richland with another member of my faction.  he's lvl 34, im lvl 35, and the zombies were 36 and 37 spawns, but they were spawning so fast that we never got a chance to raid the bodies after a kill.  it went on like this for about 15 minutes.  he had to leave and i kept fighting for a few more minutes before hj away just to catch my rsi breath.  i came back a minute later though and luckily enough the bodies were there ready for the picking....

but seriously, are the meant to respawn that fast where you dont get a chance to raid?

ok, one thing that has always bothered me is when you go to the hardline screen......

it has that "constructs" part there as well.  what is the function of it?

Ok, this question is actually about spawning under a few different topics....i will go trough them 1 by 1.

 1.  Can you actually fight a group of gang members in the same spot so much that they stop showing up in that spot for a while?   For example.  there are a group of gang members 20 yards from a hardline.  u go and fight 3 1-chevrons, then u get 2 1-cheveron and a 3-chevron, then a 2-chevron and a 3 chevron, then 2 2-chevrons......and so forth and so forth...but if u keep fighting them in that spot, will they stop re-spawning after a while?  And if so, how long til they start respawning that spot again?

2.  Data nodes.....if you go to an area and data mine it, tapping all the mines there, how long until new data mines appear there?

 3.  While data mining, you occasionally get spawns popping out of it...gang members..ect.  when you get a group of attackers, is there a time limit on how long you have to defeat them?  I had a spawn about 10 minutes ago of 3 gang members, all lvl 31 (my level) with 1 chevron apiece.  i beat them.  then 2 more popped up, still lvl 31, but with 2-chevrons this time.  i was in the middle of fighting the second one when he disappeared.  I know if u hyperjump they disappear, but i was in the middle of a fight with him and poof, he's gone.  Granted the bodies of the 4 others i had beat already were still there for looting, but why did he disappear?

Any thoughts? Info? what not?

does anyone have one they can sell me? or make and sell me?  send me an ingame email or /t  to Tygrius   Thanks " width="15" height="15" />

*EDIT* item obtained *EDIT*

Hello all, i am Tygrius.  I am coming back from a few month abstence and have found that my former faction has disbanded.  I am currently looking for a new faction.  I prefer one that has a sence of teamwork in the server, will love to run missions or just hang out and chat while jacked in. 

A little about myself.....

First of all, for the time being my active involvement in the matrix is strained.  I currently live at home with satelite internet....so basically my connection lags about as bad as you can get it to.  I am still able to jack in and talk, as well as have some mobility with hyperjumping...but running the streets is a waste of time.  However, my mother now has comcast high speed at her house and I plan to take my computer over there and see how well it works.  if it goes good I will probably go over there 2-3 times a week and jack in, and be able to run missions and what not.  In january i am going back to school and once that happens, i will be full out able to be a completely active member.

now, a little about who Tygrius is, in the Matrix.

I have a wide range of skills in the matrix.  I am currently only at lvl 31, i know, but i am a currently both a kung fu and karate master in the soldier tree, lvl 30 disguise/23 invisbility in the spy tree....

i also have the proxy coder and am able to make a remote proxy 4.0, and a lvl 31 apparel, 29 upgrade, 23 tool, 21 weapon, and 30 code crafter with a decompile skill of 31 and a compile skill of 30, and a wide range of decompiled items to choose from.

Hope that gives you a little information, so either write back here or send me an email in the matrix.

TYGRIUS
