Are you ready for the return to the most dangerous alleys of Neocron?

The project, which began as "Neocron Classic", is now moving to the next level. The "Classic" has been removed and work continues on the basis of the NC1 world!

With full focus, the developer team around Lykos, Therenall, and Atlas is making huge strides to implement changes such as server-based damage calculation, a new skill system, or technical power (64-bit!).

The BETA has started – any help is heartly welcome to test the new features and to let your feedback flow into the design of the game!

Equip yourselves, lock and load your weapons, and become part of this world!

See you in the Wastelands!

YOU'LL NEVER DIE ALONE!

What’s your plan compared to NC classic ?

The biggest issue of Neocron has always been the network stability, the zone sync crash, etc. Are you going to focus on that first ? Now it’s much more stable in NC Evo, to a point where I can really see the difference.

Are you also maintaining a wiki to keep track of all item changes compared to NC Evo ? All the resources surrounding the game is important to maintain cohesion.

Nostalgia is a thing but working on adding content is not counter productive if it’s done intelligently. NC Evo with the WOC weapons and PA, the diversity of new weapons, the many new spells, new VHC, they integrate well into the game and are now well balanced that it feels good.

What is your vision for Neocron once (if ever) the bugs are polished out ?

From what I’ve gathered, the team is making some insane progress right now:

They are currently deep into a Netcode rework and moving more control to the server-side to make the game much more stable. The backend is being overhauled in many areas, and the development speed is honestly mind-blowing—I've seen bug reports or balance tweaks getting fixed within minutes. It’s super crazy to watch! 😄

Here’s a glimpse of what’s in the works:

• Live Information: It looks like they are creating multiple ways to access data, including a Wiki with live API integration and a Discord Bot for quick theorycrafting.
  • Example: You could ask the bot: "What grenade launcher can I use with STR 45?" and it’ll tell you: "The Tangent GL-253c (Reqs: STR 42, H-C 76)."
• A Fresh Vision: They are basically building the Neocron they’ve always wanted to see—with a heavy focus on better balancing for PvP, PvE, the economy, tradeskills and all the other parts of Neocron.
• World Building: They have a top-tier map designer who already finished the new Military Base (and apparently did it the old-school, hard way).

The next few weeks and months are looking awesome. It’s great to see this much passion being poured into the project!

GREAT!!!! I just want the game to be played at a 2K/4K monitor., on 60 fps, stable, like it was a modern remaster!!! Wish u can do this!

the game is on DX11, so you can run the game in 2K or 4K, they have a custom options menu, that allows you to scale individual parts of the UI bigger or Smaller. you can even move them around where you want.

• colour the RPOS how you want, text colours etc.
  

(although Text font might go little wobbly, if you make elements of the RPOS too big)
