Mission Statement: Neotokyo is a first person shooter that aims to provide a visceral & realistic combat experience in a rich futuristic setting. Background Story and World: Neotokyo takes place in and around a fictionalized Tokyo approximately 30 years in the future. Mankind has begun to fuse with technology. Government and corporate corruption have transformed Tokyo into a deadly dystopian nightmare. After a near-successful military coup by ranking members of Jinrai, the National Security Force (NSF) is formed - answering directly to the Prime Minister, it's mission is to investigate and eliminate all threats to Japan, both abroad and at home. The initial core of the NSF is made from an exodus from within the intelligence branch of the military. With this betrayal begins the war in the shadows between the NSF and Jinrai.

I noticed that people are commenting that this mod is just some anime version of CSS (worse still by asking if this is Counter-Strike Neo).

I hope people will realize that while the first update is only related to player models, that later on the team will explain the gameplay plans, continuing from their proof of concept test from UT2004. As far as I know, the gameplay will be a homage to the setting of the "Ghost in the Shell" manga/movie. Before people say again that NTS seems like a GitS rip-off, I'd like to remind them that there hasn't been an FPS that actually takes place in Shirow's setting, with that Fuchikoma game for PS1 and the GitS SAC game for PS2 not counting. And unlike in mods such as Hidden, Dystopia, and Nuclear Dawn, thermoptic cloaking takes a much greater role in gameplay, as it is more widespread among players.

And as you can see, this imagining of the setting has little to do with GitS itself, rather that it is an alternate view of Japan's future, hardly limited to Shirow interpretation from the early 90's (GitS the manga was finished in 1991, and still had Soviets).

All i read is people that complains and hate css :) What's wrong being told your mod is looking like the most played game ever?Seems to me that the game that people never actually will stop playing is counter strike.What i am saying is that it's not a bad thing to be compared with the most played game ever or is it?I can't see anything that looks like css in this mod though.Hope for an update soon.Keep the golden work up
