If you're keen on screenshots from NC1 you might wanna take a look at my old "log":

http://www.pophase.de/neocron.html

I'm taking a lot of screenshots nowadays in NC2, just need to find a spare minute to write the corresponding text so I can extend the log. But right now I find myself playing rather than writing whenever I have the time. :p

Am I the only one who likes the new HUD?

Anyway, NC1 for me is a mix of great times and some horrible memories I'd rather forget.

What I miss the most though is the atmosphere when standing in plaza 1, just
lomming / trading / whatever, and there is a bunch of people standing around
doing the same and in the background you can hear those annoncements. I
can't really remember the phrases right now, but it was like voice-ads etc.

Ah, the days of 500 people on the server and massive opwars.....Yeah the days of the server crashing and kicking everyone out. :p

I like the new hud too... primarily for transparency, but, don't any of you think the old one is ugly as sin?

Dribble Joy
01-09-06, 16:05
New one looks more cyber punky to me..... the old one just looks.... well.. old and a bit plain.

Glok
01-09-06, 16:10
All gone also...

Sheesh. :D

The old HUD didn't creep halfway across the screen. The new one sticks out too much and its unnecessary. The old one was nice and flat. The new one does look good but the sticky out bits piss me off. Take out the blocky-sticky-outedness and I'll be a happy runner. :)

It's odd... apart from a couple of instances, events and things... I remember little of NC1, it all kinda went past in a blurr.
I can't remember when I joined TCO, when the higher level people in TCO created Skulls before TCO collapsed, when the alliance wars were.
It's wierd and kinda depressing.

i just remember the buzz when whole clans got on teamspeak and clashed for fooking huge opwars.....

Good old days. :D

'Get your own hazard worm!'

'Don't shoot the chaser ffs!'

Gaya mine teams to get stormlasers...

The raygun cannons were the favored weapon for tanks...

Raygun pistols didn't suck rooster nuts...

What about free (nearly free? maybe it was 100nc or smth ) GRs with no SI? ehehhe

'Get your own hazard worm!'
I loved it when their armour was broken, TCO used to spend hours around tescom killing those things :D.

Glok
02-09-06, 05:27
I think the best thing about the early days was NOONE knew how to level or what resists did or pretty much anything else that we all spend hours refining. It was a great achievement to get a * where your rank was displayed (and no numbers, just the *)

Aggressors dropped gat pistols that sold for 1-3k, 2 slots on your gun was enough you were gonna drop it within 24 hours anyways, the bugs omg the bugs... every week there was a new exploit. :lol:

NC2.1 would be far better than NC1 if it had the same pops. Then again, a lot of the people left because they got banned for cheating, or their friends got banned. I just hope 2.2 is good :D

Ok just to clarify the situation...

Bugs that were in NC1 that aren't in NC2:

A good number of dupe bugs
Scrambled inventories (for the most part)
Random zonings (you zone and go somewhere else entirely)
Weapon damage bugs (fuck yeah!)
Uber hybrids (rememeber the unkillable monks?)
Vehicles were far far worse when trying to zone
FREs are way less frequent

Erm a lot of database irregularities have been fixed also... though they still happen. Losing inv/gogu/apt cabs/etc was quite common in NC1.

Richard Slade
03-09-06, 02:24
Also you don't randomly end up being someone else when you zone anymore

I hope?

Glok
03-09-06, 02:25
Hasn't happened to me since NC1 really.

I got that 2 days ago.

Hmm - No you can become someone else while zoning - But you dont get there items -

a Clan member had his GoGo Magically Duped lol

To a Differnet clan member... weird

BUT - The only real thing was Quad keys - 2 keys same quad ^^ -

You do randomly double zone and go into some1's appartment -

The GoGo Thing shows the item database still fucks -

I had a Gaya Glove delete itself - :/

BUT Yea your right, way less hacks and bugs (Not sarcasm there is less)

At least someone here isn't as rose tinted as the others. Too many people saying 'omg NC1 was teh pwn' when... no.. not really, tank-o-cron.. the hybrids of doom, spirit SHs and all the bugs that have since been got rid of.

Yes; Bar PPUs/spirit, balance at the end of NC1 was very good, but hopefully we should get it back in a while.

Good old NC 1 days...

Remember those Neocronicles in PDF format...

I use to love seeing those pop up !

herm...the only thing i migrated to NC2 for never got put in >_> HOW DARE YOU GUYS LET MJS LEAVE :(

Glok
04-09-06, 03:39
MJS is not around here to make us all happy and fuzzy, the dude is a businessman. Like the rest of us I guess... but if you were running this game, with little hope of a smash hit and you knew you could make the next Elf Overlord Supreme game what would you do? I don't blame him... remember us always joking about his next rolex? I bet he still keeps track of us though.
