Do they want to go out of business? :weird:

I know WoW doesn't have a download option available either but that game doesn't really need it, Blizz already has over 1.5million subscribers to WoW. NC is doing bad as it is. :lol:

With all the problems with the game atm, c2p and no other alternative for creditcard users, missing features we were promised now 8 months ago, fre's, synchs and the rest of the bugs we've had for the past 2+ years, f* up PPU's, 2 terrible reviews from the 2 biggest UK gaming mags, no decent patches for months and now no more dl version.. Don't think i need to go on. lol.

I seriously don't see how they're gonna pick the game up now. Server pops are still lower than ive seen them in a long time and thats after INT release..
Theres only one way the game is going now, and thats straight down hill. :shake:

Does KK still have a foot? Because they seem to be shooting it so many times, I'm surprised there's anything left :weird:

Hate to say it, but it's when things get this desperate when the death kneel sounds (saw it before :( )

Apparently you can still download the client its self and also try the trial. But at the end of the trial you need to buy the boxed version to obtain a CD key apparently.

Pretty sure thats how it goes.

I think it'd take a miracle to boost KK's sales right now. :lol:

maybe that is the point.. They are keeping the servers at a maintanable level. Perhaps they are looking at dev'ing a new game based on what they ave done. While they would like ot get new clients, they don't want a rush of them, so they are making it more difficult to get the game.

Do they have to lie and mislead their existing customers at the same time - as well as making them leave, often by making them unable to pay (atleast without a big fight with both KK and C2P customer support)?

I know for a fact that it'll likely be a cold day in hell before I play another KK game - that or some other miraculous event.

KK takes another step in the wrong direction. I wouldn't surprise me if from now on every thread even slightly criticising neocron even in a heavily constructive way was shut down with something like "this discussion isn't happening" as the only reason.

They don't like hearing the truth, their game is going down hill and fast. They should have taken that PC Zone review as a kick up the backside to improving their game, but no, they just brush it under the carpet.

Nothing they do surprises me anymore, makes me glad that i'm no longer paying for the game. I just hope that one day they get their act together and make Neocron the game that it could be, before it dies..

lol. i was thinking about popping in for a month for a bit of nostalgic jokery, but it looks like i won't be, as i think i've lost the box, and i'm not paying for a new copy. Although, if a new copy has a free month - which is cheaper?

hi every that remembers me.

im still here but playing wow at the moment.
which in the last couple of days has taken a turn for me.
not saying what it is.

the reason im not playing nc is cause of the crap payment
method of c2p.

when my account wasdue for renewal i couldn't update my method payment which resulted in my account being counciled.

i had a new debit card which meant i had a new issue number asnd couldn't change my method of payment in the c2p account profiles.
it jusy wouldn't let me.

so thats it for now.

hope to see you again soon.
