[TARWMSRK]

yey! Neocron public beta is out (~1.2gb d/l) go to www.neocron.com and download it.

I tried it. Only for a day though. Haven't played any more than that...yet. Seemed interesting, and the atmosphere is a heck of a lot better than EverCrack's.

Expect to do a lot of rat and spider hunting... It seems to be the only thing a newbie can do. (sound familiar? )

Oh, and if the size of the download scares you, don't try it... I had to resume the download many times, and I have a cable connection. A bunch of users grabbing it at once, added to all the download servers being international(AFAIK), makes for a SLOW time.

Good luck, and have fun!

I want to try the demo first but Fileplanet is bursting with people.

Found the sp demo very Deus Ex-ish in atmosphere, which is a good thing. About 1/3 the way through the big download. The interface takes a bit of getting used to.

got the de mo, ans love it! I'll download the full game.

While I found a few odd things (such as how some people walk, hard to target some corpse, etc), the game makes me think alot about Des Ex, and like Paddy said, it is a good thing.

Once I got the sketchy controls back to some normal config, the game is great! The interface is very well donw, but I hope I'll be able to change the color sheme ...

Also the music get's a little annoying, but lowering the music volume seems to do the job.

So if you liked DeusEx, you'll probably like Neocron.
