Title: Omega Syndicate Sign In!
Post by: Rei on August 12, 2009, 01:25:44 PM
Hello!  and welcome to the brand new and shiny, Omega Syndicate Online Community Website!

If everyone could start by signing in, saying a little bit about how and where you've all been and what games your currently playing, we can start to get a feel for where everyone is and what we need to be adding to this site as far as game or topic specific sections go.

Any suggestions for content are of course, always welcome!


**cracks a bottle of champagne against the hull of the new OS forums**
Let the posting begin!

Code reporting in!
I'm pimping it pretty much as usual  ;D
I'm looking for an MMO to get excited about like I was with MxO, DC Universe Online looks pretty cool, although I think it'll be lost on me as I don't read comic books. Final Fantasy XIV Online is something I'm looking forward to as well, as I'm playing FFXI Online at the moment and loving every second.

As far as suggestions go, I think that if in this thread it becomes clear that there is a big group of people looking forward to/playing a particular game then it should have its own sub forum. I don't think there should be a sub forum for every genre, as the posts would be way too spread out, but how about somewhere down the track we have a Singleplayer General and a Multiplayer General (provided things get active enough).

Also, may I suggest that there be a news bulletin/news post on mxo.rumbaar.net, making the existence of this site very clear, so any MxO players looking for somewhere to go get directed here.

:)

Code you beat me!  I didn't think anyone was going to sign in that quick  ;)

Well, I haven't been playing too much as far as MMO's go lately.  I was in EVE for a couple months every now and then but I just couldn't get into it.  THe learning curve was too big and although the depth of that game blew me away, I found it just far far too much to get into at this stage so I ended up canceling my sub.

One game that I am pretty excited about now though is AION online (http://na.aiononline.com/en/?src=hdr).  It's still in Beta though to go live in September and I must say, it's already an amazing game and they're still making it even better.  The lore and the game background is unique as far as what I've seen in the MMORPG world.  Anyone who's interested, for sure check it out.   You can get into Beta if you pre-order the game though I think there's only one more Beta event left until it goes live. 

Absolutely we'll be creating sub-forums here when and if there's a particular interest in a specific game or genre.  That's more the point of the sign in topic, so we can get an idea of where everyone is so we can start figuring that out.  All in due time though.

Good call though on making a news bulletin on the MxO site, I hadn't thought about that.

Here as usual. Taking a bit of a step back from being overly involved in online gameage to be honest, I found it all a little too stressful near the end.

Still, preordered Aion and looking forward to seeing how that develops. May stay there full time if it turns out decent. Always down for a bit of Dawn Of War II and Xbox Live but apart from that I'm concentrating on single players and other aspect of my technological life xD

TWO OS'ers into Aion? Looks like I'll have to check it out, you guys let me know how it is, yeah?  :)
Hope you're both doing well IRL, too.
Title: Re: Omega Syndicate Sign In!
Post by: Rei on August 13, 2009, 06:18:58 AM
Woot for Aion!  The next Beta event starts the day after tomorrow, Friday the 14th to Monday the 17th.  If anyone else is in there, I'm on the Siel server as Reiann (Elyos) and Treia (Asmodian) though that may change on launch depending on if they make any servers specific to RP or whatnot.

I'm doing alright IRL, though doing a bit of a job hunt right now as I'm not getting the hours I need at my current one.  I hate job hunting btw.. necessary evil though I guess   ::)  Going to be taking a Paramedic course in the next couple months as well as probably some search and rescue and back country avalanche courses once winter sets in.  Should be fun, definitely looking forward to that.  Other then that though, I haven't been up to too much lately.  How have you guys been doing?

EDIT:  Just to give you guys a little peak at the awesomeness that is Aion.. check this out.

Ooooh man, Aion looks SICK, might be one worth getting into. I'm loving the look of the animations as well as the models.
Anyone else sick of this slump in the year where there is NOTHING coming out? August is such a crappy month this year, wierd considering it was the month that the best person alive was born.  8)

Glad to hear your life hasn't turned to shit or anything, haha. Good look on the job hunt, it's always a bitch, especially with todays economy. I'm holding onto my part time job, that's for sure.
All good on my end, although you can probably guess that New Zealand never has anything going on, so I'm going a bit stir-crazy.

WHUT UP ! its Denolus, What I've been up to, well I just crawled out of the 12 days in the bush, and am now back in that city I'm doing my programming degree in AKA Edmonton, blah! 

Right now I'm playing no MMOs and have thought about SGW... but I doubt I'll have time as focus is on school, music, and social life.  As for what games I'm playing HALO 3, and waiting for NHL 10 to release.. though I dunno if I can afford it but what else is a student loan for ;)

Much love n Peace

Welcome!  Oh Prodigal OS'ers you.  It's been a while!

Yes it has!  How are you doing Rei?  Everything is well I hope. :)

So what is the purpose of this forum?  Just to stay in touch?  or is their a more sinister plan going on here? lol
Title: Re: Omega Syndicate Sign In!
Post by: Rei on September 11, 2009, 06:51:29 AM
You mean a purpose aside from slowly taking over the online gaming universe?  ;)

Just to provide a non-game specific forum for everyone to keep in touch through all the games everyone's in and perhaps help people connect ingame if there's anyone playing the same ones.   

I've been doing really well, keeping busy as usual.  What have you been up to lately Anu?  Still in LOTRO?

Yes, I am still playing LOTRO, along with Euphraxia...though we dont play as much as we use to.  My interest in the game is waning because Turbine seems to be trying to develop it in a "WoW fashion"...the game's quests arent as much fun as they use to be.  That said, I still consider it the best MMORPG I have played to date.

I am eagerly awaiting the alpha/beta of SWTOR....and I am also gonna check out Aion, since apparently a few of old OS are there.  I am going to read up a little on Aion to see if it is something that might catch my interest RP-wise.  Currently, I know nothing about the game.

Post by: Rei on September 12, 2009, 05:37:55 AM
Open Beta ends on Sunday, the 13th then servers will be closed for a week.  Anyone who pre-ordered Aion gets a headstart on Sept 20th for 2 days before the official launch for everyone else on Sept 22nd.

Hey guys!

Cobalt here, reporting in after a LONG absence. Hope someone still remembers me haha. I still remember the old days of MxO BETA on dialup!

How's everyone going? If I'd known MxO was free in the last little bit before it shut down I would've jacked in to say goodbye to my first ever MMO.

Cheers!

Regardless, a big OS welcome to you :)

Greetings, I am the newest Omega Syndicate member known as Dreamlord of Eberron. I have some MMO exp, but i've spent most of my gaming on consoles. I fried my 360 for the 3rd time and have finally given up on it. I will now focus all my attention towards DDO, and hopefully in the process won't make too big a fool of myself. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask. See you in there.

Be sure to take a look around and feel free to join in.  Yeah DDO currently has my attention, it has amazing depth once you scratch the surface.

Enjoy yourself!

Hello Everyone! I made this account awhile back now but got busy with college :D. I was looking around for an MMO so came back here to see what is up. I think I will be starting DDO I had a beta account way back but never got into it but now that is F2P I just might. Only problem is that Star Trek Online Digital Deluxe edition has a lot of goodies and its hard to not get into it being a Trek fan in all.

So I will see everyone online!

Long time no see,

Romav here from Matrix Online. I've spent the past few months playing Warhammer Online, however I'm about to move interstate and will be without internet for possibly 6 months so I won't be doing much more MMOs for now. I am hoping once I have internet back up to try out Star Trek online, as it looks like an interesting take on the MMO genre.

I hope you've all been well. I tried to get back into Matrix Online the final month it was up but every time I tried the server wouldn't allow me to update the game to the current/final version. Such is life.
Title: Re: Omega Syndicate Sign In!
Post by: Rumbaar on February 01, 2010, 07:47:14 AM
Dang Romav, long time no see!

Well you should also take a look at Dungeons & Dragons online if you like the Warhammer Online line.  It's even free to play, with 'micro' transactions for additional content or subscription model if you like.  But there is enough content to sink you teeth into for free.
Title: Re: Omega Syndicate Sign In!

Whoa, there's two names I haven't seen in a while!  I'm sorry Fernas, I missed your post here >.< Long time no see!

And hey Romav!  Very glad to see you found your way here, even if you are going to be net-less for a bit. 
It's been a while!  How've ya been?

Hey everybody ScareCrowe checking in, fasionably late as usual. Right now my computer is down as the result of a nasty virus so I only have internet access through the crappy PS3 browser or when I'm at work on Saturdays. I'm hoping to buy a relatively cheap laptop soon so I at least have something until I can spend some money on a nice desktop.

So obviously I'm not really playing any MMO's right now although I also am axiously waiting for SWTOR, and would also be willing to take a look at Aion if other OS'ers are heading there. (assuming whatever pc I get can play it  ;D)
Title: Re: Omega Syndicate Sign In!
Post by: Rumbaar on March 14, 2010, 05:31:34 PM
Ha, welcome back.  YEah a few have tried Aion, but it seems not many have stuck with it.  I'm currently in Dungeons & Dragons Online.

Wow a blast from the past with the OS wants you signature :D

Post by: ScareCrowe on March 16, 2010, 01:47:06 PM
Yeah I saw the section for DDO, maybe I'll give it a try when I get some kind of PC.

By the way I love the mobile website, makes it a lot easier to check in more often ;)

I'm accessing it with my Blackberry, not honestly sure on the version though. However it's a nice toned down version with no icons or pictures, so I just get the text without the sigs & avatars slowing it down.  ;D

Heya Crowe! Long time no see!  How's life been treating ya these days?
Hey Rei lifes been treating my pretty good, got married about a year and a half ago and just recently finished adding on to/remodelling our house. Other than that just been working & trying to stay out of trouble.  :D

Good to hear from you, Crowe.

I'm actually really glad everyone's doing ok. I know we all only know eachother through the internet and a lot of us from a now dead game but I'd still feel horrible if something happened to anyone.
