Although Im not a huge Matrix fan i found the game better thenm i was expecting from reveiws i had read. The graphics arn't amazing but there good. There is a strong community and its a very enjoyable game to play, i would recommened getting the Prima Guide for this game if you are interested in the backgrounds of the characters and the game. |

The most underestimated thing since the nuke
(April 06, 2007) |

This game is, understandably, brilliant. Everything about it screams major breakthrough. The levelling system isn't incredibly easy, but neither is it hard. This game can be greatly appreciated by fans but turned down by hardcore gamers. Combat is greatly refined, the graphics are jaw dropping and the atmosphere is stunning.
I highly recommend a geforce 7600+ graphics card to enjoy this without lag. Once you see past the very few flaws you see the brilliance that is the matrix online.
p.s. Don't go on teh vector hostile as it is very near empty. |

Customer Support? What Customer Support?

This is one of those games that if you can get it to work is probably fun for a little while but don't go expecting greatness. My game consistently crashed all the time making it unplayable and technical support were of so little help that I uninstalled it in disgust. To my absolute dismay I could not cancel my subscription from an online account manager like every mmorpg I've played - no, you had to call a support centre to do it, which took ages, the guy on the other end of the line was unhelpful and obstructive and in all it was a very disappointing experience. Would have expected better from a Matrix franchise. |

The Matrix Online: Reloaded
(October 04, 2006) |
|
Since it's launch 18+ months ago The Matrix Online (MxO) has gone through many trials and tribulations. It has moved from the smaller development lounge of Monolith over to the multi-game platform of Sony Online Entertainment.
At first this seemed like a terrible thing to everyone. Monolith had given us Live events, interaction with the movie characters and easy communications tools to allow out of game and in game contact. SOE cut most of these in the transition.
However SOE have not let us down. Since the transision there have been numerous updates to the game adding new content (PAndoras Box, Archived missions, Construct quest) and completly revising the combat system with CR2.0. The combat, which varies wildly from a Hacker (Wizard class) to Kung Fu Grandmaster and all in between, is now fluid and concise. It works. There is no other game out there that comes close to the intricacy and general "coolness" of Interlock.
The game still has problems, certainly, Lag is one of the most iritating but it is not as bad as some make out. You can avoid the worst of it and counter much of it with a good computer and internet connection. And ther are less Live Events, which is unfortunate. But the bugs and the minor problems (that are so often emphasised by those that dislike the game) do not detract from the overall enjoyment of The Matrix Online.
The game looks good, flows well and has plenty of content for the casual gamer. For the more hardcore MMO player it has one of the richest Roleplaying communites around and a healthy and dedicated PvP server. If you want something that isn't about Elves and Goblins flipping pancakes...or something or other...then try The Matrix Online. |

CD Account Code Thieves
(July 31, 2006) |

I desperately wanted to play this game only to find that my so called unique account key was already in use. Basically, this game is old enough that many people out there have been generating and stealing the keys needed to play, thus honest purchasers like myself are left with unusable games. The tech support folks were no help. Its silly really, folks like us want to pay subscription to play and yet they wont take our money. Buyer beware, you may find your game "broken" in this way through no fault of design or purchase. |
