    I guess that would mean dividing by zero or something...i

    Fellow runners, i'm pretty sure everyone understands the difference between a "wipe" and a "new server", don't we? Back in ye olde days (tm) there were up to 4 servers open at once. So why not start a fresh, new, second server once NC ever goes to steam - or gets patched according to the plans we heard of, some time in 2016? I believe new players would welcome a world where everyone starts with nothing (but maybe some prior experience). And i believe Titan should stay open, so that veterans could bravely fight at OPs and in plaza 2 like they were doing for many years. Or try the new server. In that case i'd be happy to get a new life in Neocron, and i'd be happy to pay to the tune of 1 € (0,71 GBP, 1,07 USD) per month and character slot.

    Not quite. Neocron, being a MMO, doesn't stop you from playing the game after you cappped your char's exp. Unlike a typical solo-RPG. So you'd work your way up to full cap through all means this game has to offer, but once you reached cap, you're not reading a farewell mesage like GAME OVER or YOU'VE WON or THE END, but are allowed to play on for years, typically PvPing in your leisure time. That's what i was talking about: "game" vs "endgame".

    Yes, Odi, You can either play the game, or try to level up as fast as possible in order to cap out and then play a weaker form of Counter Strike.

    Other MMOs try to adress this problem by adding new high-level content, extending exp cap, adding skills, adventures, missions to keep people playing. Unfortunately Neocron isnt backed by a rich and successful development studio, so we're not enjoying a constant flow of new ingame-content.

    No it's not a weaker form of CS.

    It's a mmofps.

    Other MMO's also have massive problems because of new additions. Ever heard of Content Creep?

    Time and effort should have lasting value. Not be invalidated every year by a new addon.

    Also you're always free to create your own content (Events).

    Your solution to lacking endgame content is:

    Force everbody to level again.

    That doesn't even address the core problem you describe yourself.

    Runner, please. What i'm saying is: If NC will ever go on Steam, or at least enjoy that mega-overhaul our favourite Devs are hinting at frequently, i would love seeing both Titan kept alive and being offered an additional, new server for everyone wanting to start from scratch. That would be awesome.

    As a returning NC1 Closed beta player, the question to reset or not to reset is a no brainer.... If your going to start a new server for Steam start out fresh, everyone on equal footing it does not take long to level up from zero. Yes it's a pain but you will have something more at your disposal other than weapons, skills and such... You will have your knowledge of the game that new players won't have.

    I would be for anything that would bring people to the game. It is easy to level and get items in this game. Wipe away.
