There is a lot of interest! We just are waiting patiently to see what is going on since we don't know, there is not much we can say :) That's why it's quiet, we don't have any teaser things or anything to talk about, we are waiting for you :)
Biglines is right.. There's little geniune interest in moving this forward outside of himself and R2. If there was then people would be stepping forward and making a more concentrated and sustained effort to contribute.
It's one thing to say I'm interested, it's another to sit down for 20 hours a week and devote yourself to the cause. There seems to be plenty of the first and little of the latter
I have genuine interest in this project.
please reread my post, it's the interest in helping with the project that is lacking. I imagine loads of people are interested in seeing what we do and have done, but regretfully a project like this either needs full time devotion, or a much larger team.Quote:

loads of people here wish we could help but yeah we can only stand by and watch as the techy people do their thing and hope to see something cool :s

ask people directly.
"Can somebody help us?" .... no reaction, as anybody waits for another to say "yes"
Hmm downloading UDK, lets see what i can do. :D
Then, to get some new ideas, inspiration and to let the community show their interest, let me ask one question: how can the spirit of neocron pvp be translated to a round based shooter. Should there be some kind of skill system like in nc, a feat system like in most mmos or only a class system? What about PPUs? Any input on gamemodes? ... ;)Quote:

If you're talking about a standalone game, sure you could have similiar combat and even throw in some stat customization but at the end of all that work you'd just have an updated neofrag.Quote:

The PVP was the worst part about Neocron (the drugs part especially retarded! I still love PVP in Savage: The Battle for Newerth though which is open source by the way if you ask the developers nicely maybe)Quote:

Giger rules :) I was never able to fight warbots and the big flying ones (assault bots?) because they seemed overpowered even as Tank Girl :(
Neocron's world really gave a sense of going out on an adventure that you don't get iwth many other games except maybe Fallen Earth

I think you'll find about 99% of the people who ever played Neocron would disagree with you here :angel:Quote:
