    Default Hidden Areas of Neocron

    The city of Neocron is covered in numerous sealed off, unused, or forgotten areas. I've become quite addicted to finding these little spots. Sometimes, with a little luck and research, some history behind each area can be found.

    Tell-tale signs of these places are the usual rusty "blockfence" that eats drones when it is used to cover holes and the aging wooden fence that ignores lighting changes.

    So, to the more adventurous runners, what hidden areas have you found?

    I'll start:

    Behind the Outzone church is a tunnel system that leads to an unused door.

    I have no idea if there was an intended use for this area or if it ever had a use, but any history on this location would be great.

    Pepper Park 3 GR has such blocked off fences too.
    Also in the OZ with that rift and green water there are sealed off areas either.

    Which is the banned zone? Outzone 8 or 9? I forget.

    Also... Bum Asylum... Seriously... Best area of the game... housing for bums.... Still nicer than the apartments people get in the Outzones.

    Also, I think some of those fences you are mentioning really are just there to be fences. Sure, they've been the GM team's no1 chhoice for blocking places off - but the model existed for a reason in the first place.

    i'd post some pics and some stories but they'd probably get erased like before, techhaven has a few fun spots to find

    Hell, the secret FA HQ in TH is an absolute nightmare to find, on a par with the ByB (maybe even worse).

    And no, the security centre isn't the secret HQ before anybody chirps up. This one has FSMs, offices, etc.

    OZ 7 - Was discussed in game the other day i thought it looked like a church from the shape but i was told its a Disused Power plant.

    Overall much needs to be done to the game world. The MB entrance for example, that lift shaft that's been there for god knows how long how about for a future patch making it a grav lift.

    Big Yellow ball? how about a weird green wall.

    If I remember right Outzone 7 had spawning issues and they shut it down since they could not get a reasonable fix. I'd love to see that place open back up just to explore it.

    Some of those fences are orginal, but you can also tell when they are placed after the fact. The Agg Cellers have some obvious orginal fences and several that were added later. It seems like at one time the cellers were a lot more open.

    pretty sure that it was a mapping issue, you could get up onto the top of the map and fall off the "world" in a few places

    I recall being able to go into the water at some point, dont know if it was beta or even early retail, either that or it was just a screwed up reset point that dropped you in there... its been a long time.

    The neocron Main Sewers is a massive place thats hardly used by anyone, its mostly low level mobs there, upto the /30ish creatures like spiders etc.

    Theres also Einstein (is he still there tapping away ?)

    When you say the hidden FA HQ, is that the area you had to enter crawling through ducts and stuff ? rarely explored there much, memory is foggy, was usually getting shot at too much being tangent for most my tanks career :P

    Theres the nuke silo's at MB, gotta pass them on the way to the byb.

    I miss the old shops in industrial...
