I've been sick for a week now, unable to jack-in or do any write-ups. But today I managed to drag myself in front of the PC for a brief look at what's going on.

I jacked in at Mara Central and was instantly transformed right into what felt like a movie story line. I know this is "The Matrix Online" and it's supposed to be like that but the Live Event really does bring things to life more than in any other MMO I've played.

A chopper was circling overhead, dropping propaganda leaflets. Morpheus and his supporters were setting off "bombs" at hardlines, infecting redpills caught in the code blast with a virus.

As you can see, I only just managed to escape infection myself. These were all what I call "UO moments", times when I feel like I've been transported back in time to my first weeks in MMO gaming and the awe I felt. I get the felling there's going to be plenty of these moments in MxO.
