The title says it all, some people might defend that it's not, but trust me.... Unless you are some sort of die-hard matrix guy, it's totally void of everything that makes an mmo an mmo!

All I heer is QQ.
Maibe u should l2rp.
Hail Neo, full of pwnage, Morpheus is with thee
Blessed art thou among Zion, and blessed is the roundhouse against Smith.
Holy Neo, pray for us now, and at the hour of Victory, Amen.
Actully the game is still quite busy there are hardpoint areas that lag becouse there are just too many players there.
Couldn't agree more, I jumped back in recently and it is a shame, it's a game I'd love to play if it wasn't so empty everywhere...
When mxo was new, there were tons of people, but most were zionist because of all of the N30's seen above lol. And the fact that everyone was default zion until they changed factions, so zion inherited the lazy and the incompetent as well.... needless to say, they were an ARMY, which was no fun.
Also it used to take 3 days to level to 50, and that was the nail in the coffin.
Fun game, good graphics for it's time, and interlock was unique. I liked the mission system and the skill system wasn't bad (stats were lame).
It's too bad WB mis-managed it, and they lost hundreds of thousands of players.... by those standards, it is an absolute ghost town. All the instances are empty, the constructs are empty.... everywhere but the main hardpoints are abandoned. It's really a shame, because I really liked the special events!
All bow before the server combining... RIP enumerator!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (best server that used to exist)

All i need to do is to slog my way through your 'sentence' to get a feel for the community.

When I checked the trail about 1.5 month ago it was not dead. It is not highly active either though, but not dead yet.
Although I have not played in more than a year, I suspect it is somewhat on the downward slope.
I wish they would take this game, scrap it and create another Matrix Online. Atleast try some new concepts and ideas, start from a different point (possibly before "The One").
I played at launch and got to level 50, along with the first few on the server, and I remember how fun it was. Unfortunately, when they killed Morpheus off I just said to hell with this and quit. (I was Merovingian btw).
Anyone know if <The Collective> or <The Sirens> are still around?
I remember those Outfits? or Crews? Whatever they were called.
strange... I find myself AGREEING with shifty.... strange indeed. I had the exact same experience, and quit at almost the exact same time. The strange morpheus bomb event on a server loaded with 80% zionist was a joke (although I have a screen of killing 19 people in one nuke). btw I was a machinist. Then he died, and you are right, the game dropped off of the radar.
I have many theories, but I won't get into that. But yes, I know a guy that played very recently, and they had server combining, and mass abandonment. Too bad... I think they should start over too, and make it a ground up better game. Maybe wrestle it away from SOE, and give it a real chance!

When my AAP is active I like to log in once in a while to "kung foo" some bad guys.
Think I am lvl 8 or so heh
Asking Devs to make AAA sandbox titles is like trying to get fine dining on a McDonalds dollar menu budget.
i think when i left way back in 2005/2006 i was like lvl 20 or so. i even played the beta. the CR2.0 was a nice inclusion which helped. but the game is horrifically boring overall, missions are repetitive as hell. snooze fest.

Ya, every source I have ever seen about the numbers of players shows this game with less than 35000 players world wide. This would be a small town in america... the kind that would share a highschool with a neighboring town or something.
Ya, this game is dead, and it is still not significantly better than when everyone gave up on it.

Is it just me, or does SOE kill everything they touch/buy?
If I recall, they also bought Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. Before, I was always being recommended to the game. People loved it, other than it was a bit buggy. After SOE came along, I never heard another thing about it.
This game sounds pretty cool, if I ever get off my current MMORPG (12 Sky) I may go and try this out even if it is dead.
It's not dead. Yes there may not be alot of players on all of the time but it does have its highlights. You will always find people online, especially round the time of events and if there is something going on. You just have to know where they are.
Due to the apparent lack of people and possibly dead status, are they still charging a monthly fee? What is it? I thought about trying it. I play COH/COV and I am looking for another game to play as well. I've always wanted to try this one but never hear anything good about it. What's the deal?
I don't know what the current fee is on its own, but it's including in the station pass.
The problem is, as far as MMO's go, MxO is extremely sub-standard. UNLESS, you're a die-hard Matrix fan. If you love The Matrix and what it's all about, you stand to gain something from MxO. If you just thought The Matrix was ok and aren't really a major fan, then stay well clear as you won't get what you're looking for out of it.
To wank, or not to wank. The ultimate MMO sacrifice.
Because if it was an outstanding MMO with revolutionary game play the likes no-one had ever seen!... I wouldn't give a damn whether it was the Matrix or not. Alas it's not. But either way people need to know what they're getting themselves into via forums like this, using words in the form of comprehensible sentences. I don't expect you to understand.

I stopped reading seriously at that point cause I was to busy lol'ing
with some of the things that are said in this particular forum, I wonder if they are serious or if they are kidding. I mean wow...

No offense, but your argument was probobly as strong as his was, 'cept one can actually read yours without using a translator.
I always wanted to play MxO, but even late 2006, it seemed kind of dead to me, compared to most other MMOs. A new Matrix game would be great, but I'm reasonably sure it would never happen, considering this was a failure. It's pretty hard to teach an old dog new tricks...
