Weren't you complaining about 3 weeks ago that you couldn't level cause no-one would team with you? Or was it no ppu?

You have pwnt the game, time to move on. :p

j/k ... OP fights will come. Just stick around and add members to your clan. You need 4 hackers I believe.

Chyna had a goal once, to be the most notorious person in the game.

I wanted to be one of the strongest tanks, I had it for about a month a long time ago, then a change came and I sucked horribly again.

Some people want the most pretty apartment.

Some want to make the most 5 slotted items.

Some want to have the best abnormal build.



You say you've capped your char, you've gotten woc, you've gotten the weapons...


There are lots of more things to the game.

Have you:

-Visited the race track?

-Spent hours on end looking for the entrance to the volcano?

-Found the old house in the wastelands where you can enter a basement or a mine... it looks like an old gold diggers entrance just to explain it more thoroughly...?

-Have you killed the phoenix cpu?

-Done the mini-ppr quests? (that doomreaper + warbot thing is no joke to do)

-Gotten the Titan armor?

-Gotten the Viperking armor?

-Killed the Nightmare?

-Gotten a 5 slotted all artifact version of all weapons?

-Roleplayed?

-Collected all the trophies?

-Decorated a couple of apartments?

-Participated in GM and Player events?

-Owned the entire world map?

-Gotten the S.T.O.R.M. Laser?

-Gotten the Judgement Launcher?

-Recycled an "Empty book"?

-Recycled a "Recordable Datacube"?

-Used vehicles?

-Used aircrafts?

-Tried drones?

-Made an abnormal build, like pistol tank or apu pe or melee ppu?

-Gotten the bat queen chest and arm?

-Collected all the ion weapons?

-Been to the wastelands twister club?

-Found Albert Einstein? (if he's still there)


I'm sure there are many more, but I can't remember them all right now.

Is it sad to say that apart from the winning MOTU event and I think only 3 or 4 of the other things that yes I HAVE done most of those things at one time or another.

The secret FA Hq, well I went there in NC1 on pluto but I had no idea if it was still there or not.

The only other thing I have to add really is have you found ALL of the entrances to nc. When I say all I mean all FIVE of them (if they havent blocked off the old BD entrance still).

Nah, there's still five.
One's a lot less well known than the other 4 mind.

Which reminds me:

Gone levelling in places not really intended for it, such as:

Secret BD HQ
Secret TS HQ
Crahn Abbey
Abandoned FA HQ (dome).
etc.

Secret FA HQ in NC1? It wasn't there then, it only came along in NC2.

Mind you I've not checked to see if the Secret HQ is still there in the current patch, since Fallen Angels has it's new HQ just below Techhaven 2.

You mean killing all those 5/5 beggars and the like with a couple 100/100 boys down in the secret area? Doubt it's particularly good leveling but it's def a cool find. They should put more mobs in the Dome HQs, Anarchy Breed who have taken over like the Abandoned BD and TS hqs in NC pre-patch.

Probably should have started a thread in the 'New runners corner' for a question like this mate - but hey, I'm not a mod.

To answer your question:

You can PVE to your heart's content, farming Mc5 for the ever-valuable Mc5 chips (Lots of clans do this), or farm the WoC tunnels for the even more valuable WoC discs!
Pure PVE at endgame can prove to be very profitable, especially if it's all you dedicate your time to!

I would, however, thoroughly recommend you at least try the PvP, as it is quite possibly the most rewarding and fun MMO PvP you will ever experience. Trust me, you will spend a lot of time learning how to beat that last guy that killed you.

I waste a lot of time in NC by standing around waiting for PvP fights, but the occassional group PvE mission can and normally is quite fun :)

MoonDragn
06-02-08, 17:21
Well I probably would consider pvp if theres nothing else to do, but its not one of my favorite activities. I just don't enjoy killing other people for fun even in a game. In real life maybe... Just kidding.

I tried pvp games before and just didn't like them. Most of the time somebody exploits some kind of bug or have a super 1 shot I-kill-you setup thats ridiculously powerful etc. Its just not fun.

Plus I'm too much of a vendetta personality. I like revenge too much. I probably would camp outside someone's apartment for days to get my revenge and that would just be a waste of my time.

End Game PVE content consists of :

- MC5 (For rare implant parts)
- Warbots, Fire Mobs in Wastes (For rare weapons Parts)
- DOY Tunnels (For Slot enhancers and Ultima Mods)
- DOY City - (For WOC parts)

And thats about it, tbh out of all those i enjoy DOY tunnel runs in a well organised team or DOY City, As the other two can be done solo.

As for PvP if you don't like the close up combat then either get a droner or rifle spy who can kill people from a distance then stealth off undetected with a wry smile on your face :cool:

Actually thats what I hate most about pvp. Is the fact that someone can do that without any real risk. I prefer a even field where noone has an advantage like that and have the ability to kill someone without risk.

Thats what I hated about DAoC and their snipers.

I would more prefer a close combat fight where it is more about skill and less about stealth.

Do you mean that you have the XP for these levels or you have WOC for CON & STR? I did not think this possible.

1. You can't have WoC in more than 1 thing.
2. There is not NPC to talk to in order to receive Con WoC even if it was an option.

There is always risk in Neocron, it is impossible to one shot kill a target (no Headshots in this game) So even at distance with surprise you can still become the hunted. It takes skill even at distance in this game.

Even close range other players will have an advantage as setup is key in this game. If you have all the skillz in the world and a shit setup you'll be dead. It takes investment of time in your setup as well as honing your skills, thats why this game beats other FPS hands down. The combination.

I didn't say i prefer that style, Just that it was an option, i play both styles with the characters available to me depending on my mood or what's needed in the field.

Tbh I have to disagree slightly. The pvp in neocron is better than most MMO games, whereas it is nowhere near as good as the pvp in ANY fps game worth its salt. The people who play nc purely for pvp are generally terrible at proper fps games (no safe zones to run to) in my experience.

UT99 is getting on for a decade old now and the engine is showing its age but it is ten times better than nc for action. The thing about nc is the atmosphere is like no other game around, and the fact that there is SO much MORE to nc. You get involved due to the people you meet and speak to, not the ones you clip around hills after.

My comment was in the context of sniping, i.e. Headsots in normal FPS = Death, not so in NC.

You can one shot kill with a bloody drone http://neocron.jafc.de/images/smilies/old/tongue.gif but that's not what i meant.

I am glad you disagree with me http://neocron.jafc.de/images/smilies/old/smile.gif or what would we debate about http://neocron.jafc.de/images/smilies/old/cool.gif

I was trying to convey that setup is important in this game unlike most FPS generics where its ALL skill based. It's a fundamental difference.

As for action yes FPS are much better for hard hitting , adrelanine fuelled rush times!
But i can pretty much give any FPS game to my brother and he's ripping people apart in no time.

Yet in NC you can't just pick it up and PvP thats why i think its much better you have to invest time in understanding what makes your char great, your skills though in using this great char are in your own hands http://neocron.jafc.de/images/smilies/old/tongue.gif

aenema
20-02-08, 17:28
It's true, as stated above, that the combination of both skills and setup is one of this game's best aspect, in my opinion.

I wouldn't say that it's the best combination to make a game successful though.
