A review of Neocron at GamersAsylum seems to like the game, and quite a bit so - but it is mentioning some flaws, too. There is no final rating, but if you sum up the ratings for different items, I'd say it would be a 3.5/5. Their summary:
Neocron is a unique setting in a quickly overcrowded field, and should earn the attention of any MMO aficionado. Unfortunately, the title seems to be suffering from a sort of bi-polar disorder in that it cannot decide if it wants to be a MMO or just a large FPS. Certainly fans of either will find something to love in Neocron, but the two camps are rarely seen keeping the same company otherwise. This odd dichotomy may prevent many traditional MMOers from joining up, fearful of having reckless PvP subtract from their desire to play in their chosen style, while FPS players may be severely put off by the need to perform non-combat tasks in order to increase combat skills, and by the fact that a player's normal FPS skills are minimized by the need to have high in-game skill numbers. Cyberpunk fans should be wetting their pants, however, since Neocron offers them an immersive environment filled with technology, danger and a whole lot of weapons. Fire up your favorite darkside tunes and check out Neocron.
