I have been playing MxO for almost 3 years--every single evening after dinner. In order to really "get into" the game, you need to be in a good faction with helpful members and mutual friendships.
It is indeed a community, just like we have in the "Real World." Think of those BluePills who just merrily walk through the park as there are bullets flying and bodies dropping--oblivious to the carnage.
It's sort of like us and terrorists and Iraq. Roadside bombs going off, but we keep driving with the oil that pays for the bombs. Yes, you and I are bluepills--that is, until we take the red pill and transport into MegaCity.
Have you seen the Intruder? We don't know who/what he is, nor where/when he came from, but he has no body, just a wire appearing frame--and appears to be made of light as he attacks with a Decelerator Code.
Oh, The Matrix is alive and well.
