A bot with a registered NC game account?

As for UR3, it depends on KK and 10T. Converting NC to that engine would require a massive amount of work from the former, and a load of additional investment from the latter. Not to mention the devs would have to almost entirely relearn how their game is coded.

He's not a bot. I seem to think "hellioth" may be a team in UT but anyway.
Well, 10T doesn't develop NC directly. They are the sole owners of Reakktor, who develop neocron. Isn't the Unreal 3.0 engine for Elevon though? We know that KKs new project is based upon an engine owned by 10T themselves though, so it has no real bearing on the future of NC. (However I hold that there will not be a Neocron on any other engine. There may be a 'spiritual succesor' (a la system shock/bio shock) but no remake directly of NC.

Is Evelon a KK project or a 10T one? I was under the assuption KK had nothing to do with it.

Ok since it edited it's first post to emphasize the >>10tacle<< I guess it's not a bot. How do you like being called 'it' Helioth? :lol:

Erm sorry. Bots have this impersonal preplanned post style (a lot like politicians :lol: ), and you post the same way... I guess it's probably a language barrier? Where you from?

I would guess what it's about is that the U3 engine kicks ass... and maybe has features that allow modules to be added to the engine or something making it ideal for a publisher to use to whip out games.

10T.
Its possible that this is what KK's web guys are working on, but probably not. But if you read that stockholders recomendation you'd see that (like most publishers) games aren't developed "in house" but made by subsidiaries. Aquiring a liscences could be done on the behalf of any or several of said subsidaries.
