What did you think of The Matrix Online?

So what did everyone think about The Matrix Online? What was good or bad about it? Anything you would like to see added or removed from the game?

I heard there was some heavy chaotic action going on and morpheus was giving some speech about telling all humans to attack agents everywhere.

I want to try it but I don't have a credit card for the verification. :(

In all honesty, last weekend wasn't the best weekend for me to be trying out a new game. I just had way too much work to really focus on and enjoy the game and give it a solid, honest effort at impressing me.

Given the above qualification, my overall impressions were slightly above "an okay game". I'm sure some of it had to do with what little I played of it but in general I found the game world to be overall drab and dull. The quests seem to be way too much alike. Get a quest... run to a building... go up an elevator... compelete the quest... rinse and repeat all over again.

Like I said, I probably didn't get enough time with the game and didn't certainly see all of it. So chances are I missed out on some of the good stuff. But for now, I don't think this game is going to be my first springboard into the world of MMOG's. Of course that could change if some of my fellow forum mates have an overwhelming impression 180 degrees from mine after the game launches! :wink:

thats why I said it be good idea to wait 2-3 months before trying the game =]

Yeah I had the game all installed and ready to go for the Beta but was in Chicago and then got slammed at work and the 3 day window just wasn't enough for me to check it out.

Hopefully I didn't prevent anyone else who really wanted to, from taking part in the Beta. Considering the # of keys I doubt it though.

I am not going to even consider another MMORPG though ultimately I've decided, WoW or AO will do for that kind of fix. No more for me, ever.

The amount of MMORPG's on the PC market is insane now and it's taking over the entire PC gaming world, something i'm not too fond of.

I have not purchased a single new PC game yet this year - which tells me a lot about the state of PC games these days (extremely disappointing formulaic WWII, tactical, cliche'd RTS and MMORPG clones a-plenty and not an ounce of creativity or innovation beyond technical advantages). Sad but true.

I thought it was OK, needs work still...
