I got into The Matrix Online Beta
 

Indeed, I am so very thoughly excited right now....

I realize that this is absolutely useless as an entirely new thread, I'm just pretty pumped - Don't worry folks, I'll tell you allllllllllll about how great it is and how uber leet I must be, lol.

Well, I'll come back with an update later... as soon as I get to play.

Anyone else get the email?

:cool:

oh crap. I need to check my e-mail. Did you get this today?

I got in too! WOO HOO.

Yeah, good luck actually getting in. I've had the beta for about 2 weeks now and I just was able to get in for the first time last night.

Yep, I got it yesterday...

Glytch, are you the same Glyttch that hung out with me? That's pretty comic that the one decent person I met in game is from the TFP...

Is the beta under a non disclosure agreement? I'm assuming you'll be unable to talk about the game...

Yeah, I didn't really think about it when I first got the email, but I am now required by law to shut the hell up about it :(

On the up side, I did get to play it for several hours yesterday :thumbsup:

Non-disclosure, bah!

Keeps me from interesting game info!

Damnit, I never even got so much as a PFO autoresponse email from the bastards. They're clearly discriminating against Canadians. :P

is it against the law to tell us on a scale of 1-10 how much the game rocks/sucks?

I think it probably would violate my Non Disclosure Agreement if I said the game was a 10 :thumbsup:

I was just wondering: How can you implement bullet-time/focus in a multiplayer game? Would it slow down the environment for your opponents, or would it make you move super-fast?

With both perspectives having to be satisfied, it seems that bullet-time/focus might be quite a difficult task to add to the game.

Since I aquired this knowledge from the website before I entered Beta, I suppose it's alright to answer this question...

Bullet Time is indeed implemented, and you just seem to move faster to other charactors that are not in combat with you.

Why I am not getting anywhere near the Matrix Online:

Lol, that's good :D

To be honest, I don't think that it will be quite like that - but that has yet to be seen, we have to wait till live to know for sure.

Certainly, in SWG there were some people that did that, but the vast majority seem to be perfectly happy with "normal" charactors

I got in through the File Planet promo. Looking forward to giving it a spin tonight.

I want in, but to me, the game looks like it is going to suck incredibly bad.


I'm praying to the Matrix gods

Everyone I know in the game says it's horrible. And remember kiddies. Lets not break the NDA! :D

I'm in. It has a long ways to go, yet..

That comic is so true!

I was watchign my friend play it... so hopefully they fixed the problem with no beginning walkthrough, and all the freaking bugs with playing. There are a few powerful people around when I saw it a couple weeks after release, but ah... I don't like the game play times....

Since I follow the NDA all I can say is....

Please gods-of-Blizzard, start the WoW open beta soon.

The matrix was doing good after the big 6.0 patch, but now they are letting in 5,000 file planet subscribers and it messed the servers up a bit. I'm going martial arts, what is everybody else doing?

Man, everyday, check WoW to see if I can sign up today. My friend got in through a friends account and he thinks its awesome, so I can't wait.

Lil tidbit (Dunno how much NDA I can break, so it's a small tidbit):

I've been playing this quite heavily the past month or so, and I must say... It's come a long ways. Much of what sucked a couple months ago has been fixed, (not to say there's still a lot to be fixed..) But, it's getting there. Some of you that still have your acct# may want to check it again. Still some major stability issues. Still addictive, but needs a ways to go to compete with the WoW gods.. but it'll have it's niche with the Matrox0rs of the world.

I'm going to give this another try. (I'm about broke and refuse to pay for WoW until I'm somewhat less than broke)

Anyone still playing?

If it even comes close to the playability and pure immersiveness of WOW I will definitely be getting hacked in.

haha i don't have to not say anything. When I go back to school I'll check out my next door neighbor playing it and post what I see if you want.
