After neocron being pushed back to Q2/2002 (story), there is an interesting posting by Joerg Schwiezer from Reakktor media on the official forums, explaining how you can get Neocron once it is released:
Still worried that you might not get your copy of the game? Well, worry no more. Once Neocron is out, besides normal retail at your software dealer, the client will be available for d/l at Neocron.com. Prepare for a huge 1.2 gig download though. After downloading the software, you will have to purchase and download a key that activates and authorizes your client. However, you will be able to play the tutorial without purchasing the key... then again, the tutorial will be available as a much smaller separate download (around 50 MB) anyway
Tutorial/Demo will be available from May 02. |
