I just got an idea today, about what could be added to FOnline 2238 to make it more original and exciting. I called it: The Dynamic Server. The main different between a dynamic and normal server would be:
1. Limited time of playing. The dynamic server would reset (wipe) after every.. let say.. 100 calendar days. The current 'time left' could be seen in pipboy, just like in fallout 1.
2. The technology level will increase during the server age.
Its not a REPLACEMENT. It's just a SECOND server.
For example:
Day 1:
The server resets.
The Dark Ages begin - this period is based on the world of Mad Max. The technology level is low, and there are only two towns. Players are spending free time exploring, earning cash and raiding one of the town while defending the second one.
Towns: Junktown and Klamath are only available towns.
Weapons: Pipe rifle, shotgun, mauser, knife, brass knuckles and other T0/T1 junk.
Armors: Leather Jacket is available.
Other: Tents are available.
Day 2-19: New weapons and places become available slowly.
About day 20:
The Medieval Ages begin - this period is started by discovering Hub as well as combat armor, assault rifle, combat shotgun, AP ammo and other powerful stuff. The world is based on Fallout 1 universe. Technology level is moderate and the gangs begin to slowly appear. Hub is known as the most powerful place.
Towns: Most of small town are available, like Necropolis, Den, Modoc, Redding etc. The Hub is known as the most powerful of all and the only 'big one'.
Weapons: combat shotgun, assault rifle, sniper rifle, minigun, flamer, laser rifle, plasma rifle and most of fallout 1 weapons are available
Armors: Leather jacket, leather armor, metal armor and combat armor are available
Other: TC can be made using stuff like CA, Metal armor, a.riffle, s.rifle, minigun and such. Some cars are available.
Day 21-49: New stuff from time to time.
About day 50:
The Renessaince begins - this stage is based on fallout 2 and FOnline 2238 universe and begins with discovering the BoS as well as some of Big Towns.
Towns: Reno, Vault City, NCR, Broken Hills, Gun Runners, Brotherhood of steel.
Weapons: All 'upgraded' guns like scoped h.rifle, avenger minigun, electromag pistol etc.
Armors: All Mk2 armors and Brotherhood armor become available.
Other: TC can be made on standard rules. All cars available. Gang bases can be bought.
Day 51-89: Another towns and guns become available.
About day 90:
The Enlightenment age begins with discovering the Enclave and San francisco.
Towns: Glow, San francisco, Navarro etc.
Weapons: Say hello to turbo plasma rifle, bozar and other high-tec shit.
Armors: Power armors become available. First the t51-b's, then Advanced.
Day 100: Wipe again.
That is of course only a sketch (the monsters could be affected as well, the moments of advances could be randomized to make it more unpredictible, the order of discovered towns could be switched etc), but I think the idea itself is pretty good and should be considered.
