they should have listed the unoffical downloads as BT sucks a fat one imo but atleast people can hear about the beta now.

/sex at whoever brought it to mmorpg.coms attention.

i think its a shame that people have reviewed it so badly

Especially when i see a lot of old school NC players have contributed to the shtity scores.

They complained about NC not having enough players - soon it might have enough. Piss poor reviews from people that were once hooked on the game dont help.

WOW, it IS on the front page... how did that happen?Don't see why people would think they wouldn't do it. I mean I found out about neocron 1 beta from gamespy daily news. Don't see why it would change. They do try imo to keep up with beta and releases. Not always the preadvertising thing though :\.

Their reviews though are hmm . heh.

EDIT: I wish they had used a different cover shot -_-;;; instead of that horrid nc1 cover image >_<

I found neocron by the mmorpg website.
It's THE website to find mmorpg games.

Was in doubt as to play planetside or this one, i'm glad i chose neocron.

no, been playing beta for hours, and yes - i am defintately not impressed.

I am not accepting the cookies (from that site - had too many problems), but have heard that its not been given that good a right up - try reading what people write.

icool glads it is up there but i am too ashamed at what some people are saying about it

i lov e this game so do most players who play it but unfortuanatly a few decide to say things that arnt coimpletly true on the reviews and it oculd put people off i dont mind peeps having oppions but when they start saying un truthful things like they do its not right

just my pennys worth

For those of us who really enjoy this game we should all go post on the sites with negative post to over shadow the negative ones.

boombang

Anything specific?

a few main things:

-the runners look stuck on top of the back grounds, with NPC looking properly integrated - runners move differently and have what I find annoying graphics. I figure we are stuf with this new cartoon styles.

-synch lag is pretty bad, as is general lag (possibly from the mem leaks, so hopefully will be solved)

-the new textures don't seem to match, e.g. a corridor being light blue, then synch and the corridor is much darker.

-the whole of DOY is wrong in terms of space - it physically doesn't fit together, as has been pointed out elsewhere. Its unsettling.

-the inability to do missions and level effectively gives me no incentive to level a noob char, and I'd prefer to wait to transfer my own char

-the above transfer has now been delayed and no good idea of when it will occur given (although i haven't checked the forum for a few hours)

-I really don't like the fact that the game is so incomplete, with dead ends, closed areas. Considering how long the games been in progress, and with all the closed testing, its still way off what i would call a vendable game, yet they reckon the end of the month? (yes i know its beta, but beta is the LAST bit of testing, ironing out creases, rather than actually implementing big parts of game).

-As yet there is no DOY trade, just NC... makes no sense

-As usual the navray is a little wayward and confusing at times, but this could just be down to map design.

Good points:

-hacknet seems like a key to the game, and was fun to work out

-flying vehicles will be good to get a go on, so long as they don't totally suck (which seems possible given the control methods of the game).


All in all I can't wait for the game to be finished, and reckon most of the above will be tweaked (except the runner graphics). Then I will go in with a totally open mind and see. If I am not hooked within a month, I am out.

Umm it's always been like that as long as I can remember. I"ve zoned and found the lighting totally different from where I just came from. Or a tree that was there when I zoned isn't behind me once I zoned. Minor issues in my eyes. If they get fixed to be perfect sure alright .. but if they dont' .. oh well no skin off my teeth ;)

-the runners look stuck on top of the back grounds, with NPC looking properly integrated - runners move differently and have what I find annoying graphics.
There is an issue with the lighting effects, and many of us are not comfortable with the new PPU/APU casting anims.


-synch lag is pretty bad, as is general lag (possibly from the mem leaks, so hopefully will be solved)
Ping lag, or fps lag?
The former I have not had at all, the later only due to the mem leak.

[quote]-the whole of DOY is wrong in terms of space - it physically doesn't fit together, as has been pointed out elsewhere. Its unsettling.
So the zone exits don't line up EXACTLY. So what? does this have any real baring on game play.


-the inability to do missions and level effectively gives me no incentive to level a noob char, and I'd prefer to wait to transfer my own char
Mission = bugged, lots of thread up about it, by players and devs.


-the above transfer has now been delayed and no good idea of when it will occur given (although i haven't checked the forum for a few hours)
Delayed?
Did KK give us a date?
Is a week so terrible?
Do you need to be capped to beta test?


-I really don't like the fact that the game is so incomplete, with dead ends, closed areas.

Fair point, but the distance we have come since the begining of closed is enormous.


Tbh I personally am not concerned about the appearance so much, but the game play, especially balance, despite that fact I know KK will not/cannot do anything about it.

It's by no doubt different, and changes are sometimes hard to grasp when your not used to them. Try to think of the models from a newbies point of view though. I expect they would prefere the new ones by a lot.

-synch lag is pretty bad, as is general lag (possibly from the mem leaks, so hopefully will be solved)

Should be solved. The lag has only really piled on since the open beta stress test. There is obviously some work to do, just give Reakktor time.

-the new textures don't seem to match, e.g. a corridor being light blue, then synch and the corridor is much darker.

I may be wrong, but I think different maps use different texture sets to improve load times.

-the whole of DOY is wrong in terms of space - it physically doesn't fit together, as has been pointed out elsewhere. Its unsettling.

It is somewhat disturbing. It needs a lot of work, however once the shops are in I'm certain things will start to improve. I think several areas just need a lot of new lighting and commercialism.

-the inability to do missions and level effectively gives me no incentive to level a noob char, and I'd prefer to wait to transfer my own char

By retail I heard missions are going to be a lot more diverse and generally better than Neocron 1. I have no idea whether or not this is true.

-the above transfer has now been delayed and no good idea of when it will occur given (although i haven't checked the forum for a few hours)

We were told officially that it was going to happen at the end of open beta. Unfortunately the entire forum has now been deleted, and the status of the transfer date may also be subject to change.

-I really don't like the fact that the game is so incomplete, with dead ends, closed areas. Considering how long the games been in progress, and with all the closed testing, its still way off what i would call a vendable game, yet they reckon the end of the month? (yes i know its beta, but beta is the LAST bit of testing, ironing out creases, rather than actually implementing big parts of game).

Going on experience, reakktor did a lot in a short space of time. When I joined, DX9 was incompatible with Geforce 3, 4, & 5, FPS was attrocious with 5 people on a server and no detail on screen. Models looked 10x worse, aswell as sevel consmetical changes bug fixes and implamentations. I am however worried like you. I am pro delaying the game by a fortnight to a month.

-As yet there is no DOY trade, just NC... makes no sense

Beta issue. It won't be released like this I'm sure.

-As usual the navray is a little wayward and confusing at times, but this could just be down to map design.

Maybe, but it still is just beta. When I joined there was no navray in Dome of York and there where no signposts.

-hacknet seems like a key to the game, and was fun to work out

I don't like hacknet, and by that I mean I don't want to make a hacknet character. The concept and implamentation are both fantastic though, I'm sure several people will enjoy it.

-flying vehicles will be good to get a go on, so long as they don't totally suck (which seems possible given the control methods of the game).

In my opinion, these vehicles should be the VHC equivalent of Cursed Souls and Judges. Very powerfull vehicles that everybody phears, yet is still an equall fight.

this is why I left posting for a while, in the knowledge that someone would pick apart all the individual problems I have with the game - take it as all the little problems mount up and piss me off - k?

and as I said, i've not been looking over forums or playing much (gone back to NC1, and remember why I loved the game - it just works so much better!)

We were told Wednesday 8th, but they have failed to give clarification as to when this will now be (may have done by now, but this is the only thread I am looking at).
A week isn't that bad, but the whole process of levelling annoys me.
The idea of testing is to allow the game to be tested in full, but I am stuck in noob areas, as can only play for a short time every day - hence bringing my old chars will be a breath of fresh air, and let me explore and hopefully test better (have found lots of bugs in noob areas though!)
An no, you don't need to be capped - none of my chars are in fact capped, but not having to kill spiders for hours is great!

I agree with boombang on his points. Altough this is beta the rule usually is that wysiwyg at the last day of beta. Confidence for KK at this point is so-so, they actually released beta on time (with bugs) but still have a fresh memory of every patch in nc1 that brought back old bugs or created new ones most of em for a good laugh aswell (copbot rifles anyone?, or some warbot dropping furniture :lol: )


ps wysiwyg means what you see is what you get, old rule from a tabletop games that meant that you only get what your tin figures was carrying.

It was not delayed. It was stated it "maybe" would be out by then. This is exactly why we usually do not even give vague dates anymore.

For once I couldn't agree more :)

It is SO annoying when people read "it might be" as "it will be" and then moan when it's not.

Communication from KK is bad enough already people, stop discouraging them :mad:

But that doesn't stop the bitching anyway.
If KK doesn't give a date, vague or otherwise, people bitch.
If they do give a date, vague or otherwise, people bitch.
Either way you get bitching, the latter at least provides "some" information and is therefore more useful. :)
