Well, it looks like its NEOTOKYO° is almost here, according to the official word from pushBAK on their site:
pushBAK wrote: As far as development goes... the mod is essentially done. We've just got a few things to tidy up (double checking to make sure maps don't have problems like not enough spawns for large player counts, working with server admins to see if their admin tools are essentially compatible with NT, fine tuning a couple weapons for balance, etc..) We're also going to try and get the word out a little more aggressively by doing the usual PR stuffzzzzz.
Hopefully soon we can get a proper official tutorial going, and some announcements/info (max player recommendation, release map list, server stuff, last of the media, etc...) As soon as we've locked down these things, we'll post it up.
In addition to this, a number of 'noob hints' were posted up that detail a lot of the mechanics behind the classes, the special vision modes and 'capture the ghost' gametype.
Looks like its in the home stretches now...
Is that a Tachikoma?
Indeed it is.
Tachikomas are constructed out of pure awesomeness and mineral oil.
But the major said no mineral oil... *cries*
Should it not be Uchikoma? :)
I'm guessing this will be ingame.. Seeing how every single picture says "RANDOM HINT".
Anyway thanks for the update, now I have something to feast my eyes upon until I am a Neotokyo noob no more.
I think so too XD
Superfuntime! I have been waiting for this one so long, always knowing it would be better than what I expected and it is even better than that! (at least that's what I expect!)
:) confused? Exited!
-Should release on Steam! Valve puts on a lot of weaker mods!
Is there going to be katana in it? :P
I doubt it. Unless it is added as an easter egg. Now their is an idea..
There might be a hidden laser chainsaw katana! (not really)
Tats would kill you. :P
this mod will have bots?
It will not have bots. My guess is due to the amount of time required to program the AI.
Simple bots that mimic your actions aren't hard to do. But i think it's unlikely that it will have bots with the same capabilities as in counter-strike.
Absolutely epic!
Can't wait to play this, it all looks and sounds like pure quality!
u can peek around corners? im sold.
Indeed, too many games where its not an available option. Game looks great, good luck devs!
just wow ;)
i promise it will be worth the waiting :)
This looks absolutely fantastic. This is one of the best, if not THE best multiplayer mod for Half-Life 2!
agreed
I wouldn't rate it before it's released, if I were you.

Perhaps if you followed this mod siense the start you wouldn't say that, This mod has come a long way, Listened to it's community and made it's community loyal.
Truly, I believe you are wrong, and I cannot wait for this mod!
What? How is he wrong? For one thing that's an opinion and opinions can't be wrong; as for what he said, there have been many games and mods in the past that look amazing, but once you play them they aren't really that great. I'm not saying this is one of those mods, but you can never know until you play it. Even then it's an opinion whether it's good or not so it doesn't really matter, and no one will be wrong for saying it's a bad mod.

ZZO?GMNGZ TGAJSTGIAWR I CAN"T ******* WAIT IM SOO GOD DAMN EXCITED!!!!! WOOOOOHOOOOO YEAH BRING IT ONE I FGASRZekp;ltynmzsdr;l I SOO HYPER NOW AND EXCIDED I JIZZED IN MY PANTS :D RTELEASE IT ALREADY!!!!! I CAN'YT WAIT ANY LONGER NOW >.<
haha
oh wow
looks great ;D
I'm downloading this for the music.
Some of the music found on the CDs not provided in the game are actually really good. Plus the bitrate of the CD version is far higher than any MP3 will offer. I'd urge you to get the CD.
I know, I really really want to, but I can't :(
Shipping, living in a faraway distant land, etc
Finally ;Q_
What the hell? How did I miss this mod? Without a doubt the greatest Source Mod I've seen yet, besides maybe GarrysMod (But really, that is EVERY mod....). I just need to know one thing though, HOW DID YOU DO THOSE VIDEO EFFECTS? The ones where you were sweeping from one persons view to the other? I've never seen someone do that for a source mod trailer before without it being CGI.
Most of the shaking and such looks like post processing. The slow motion and camera movements can be done in source if you record it using a Demo.

Thanks guys, think I might use that just for the sheer awesome factor.

And holy god I want this mod so bad. The standard of work is outstanding, and it looks hella fun to play. I know i'll be terrible at it, but then I'm terrible at all FPS games :D
I'm finaly starting to feel theis anticipation for this game now that I know it's right around the corner, it looks fantastic!
Looks like they put a lot of effort into this mod.
Looking forward to it. Beautifully presented from start to finish, Has my vote for mod of the year (if it plays as well as it looks, which I am sure it will)...
So the ghost was totally inspired by Björk's "All Is Full of Love" right? Picture perfect.
i can not wait for this mod! it looks like High quality work compared to some other TC mods for HL2. i would rate it 9/10 right now because i do not know how the game is like,etc.
I luv it! <3
Yessssss
holy ****
DO WANT NOAW
Do want!
Unique problem that I will certainly have high ping :p I just hope I find some servers from my country x.x ... or at least near of it.
The Source engine is actually very capable with pings and such. I've seen games where the server is hosted in the US and people from Japan are getting a ping of 200. Not great granted, but better than other engines might offer (upwards of 400-500).
Sooooo sexy!
I shure,it will be the best mod on source engine EVER!!! Its a favorit mod what i want to play!
Looking great! I like how they handled team killing.
cant wait for this!
man I loved those optics, all of then.
Cant wait.
