It costs like £7 a month on the 3 or 6 month payment tiers. And it's no more expensive than most other MMO's about at the moment.

I can't see how KK could possibly significantly lower the price. If you're skint thn either a) Get a job and stop playing games all day b) Go play some free / non-monthly-fee games.

I'm a student and I manage to afford it okay. I have 2 accounts both upgraded. Considering what I have to pay each month for rent, electricity, gas, phone bill, food etc £14 for NC2 is hardly alot.

Noodle, tuna and a job as a security guard doing night/weekend shifts.

Besides, neocron is from the cheaper end of MMORPGs

It is actually cheaper for me this month....$14.51USD, down 50 cents from last month.....

Hopefully the Euro will tank before next months payment..... :lol:

Once I do I'll have maybe a few hours a night if I am lucky for NC. I have very little free time once classes start again as it is, but I still pay, and make some time for NC to relax:)

I think it's cheap enough, i think with a 3 or 6 month plan the raw conversion works out at about £5 a month doesn't it ?

....unless you're Dick van Dyke or Prince Charles.

For the record, if ANYBODY calls me "old chap" i'll shoot the fucker... :mad:


Back on topic, i just got an email from Click2gay confirming my first payment for my 6 month subscription. After euro to sterling conversion, it's £29.83 which works out less than a fiver a month, and is CONSIDERABLY less than what most peeps spend on a single night out on the piss.

oooh, think i'll have to get myself an olde style red phone box built at the front of my house and charge gullible tourists £10 a time to have their picture taken next to it. £20 if they want me to pose with them dressed as a chimney sweep / pearly king / policeman
