Noob question ( Havent playd the game)
Ztormi:
There are several things why I love this game.
-It's very falloutish, if there was one thing I hoped when playing fallout 2 I always wanted it to have multiplayer mode. This is it with many, many more crazy and fun things added.
-There is no certain path you need to take. Crafting seems to be the easiest solution to gather gear but there are many other ways to get the equipment you need. You can play in a large faction, smaller gang or just be a lone wanderer or trader.
-It's challenging at first and you can feel the atmosphere of harsh wasteland with no to very few laws. Everyone is a sitting duck. It's amazing.
-The world pretty much evolves around the actions of gangs and players during the game. Some towns may turn from peaceful friendly communes into deadly killzones.
Give it a try, if you liked fallout1 and 2 you won't regret it. Atleast I didn't ;D

Just to correct one point (things are changing and I know it's a fucking mess!!)

They got their outlaws list, and you may not except warm greetings from them, once you get there. For now trying to set up light of hope in Redding city. Im holding thumbs :>

=> BUT THEY HAVE LOST CONTROL OF Wasteland Wildlife Protectors government which is making it's own diplomacy with big gangs.
=> Wasteland Wildlife Protectors STILL HOPE that despite of emancipation TTTLA WILL STILL HELP TO PROTECT REDDING which is not sure :-\
Wasteland Wildlife Protectors is so far the only non-pvp faction in North wasteland (farmers, families, of course some fighters but only for the police in town) => It is regrouping the citizens of Redding which live like inhabitants of a small town in a devastated wasteland => trying to maintain peace by giving tributes to big gangs and by killing small raiders gangs with their own militia
WWP Government here => http://orphans.forum-actif.net/t1051-current-wwp-government

This fits TTTLA better. About Wildlife Protectors, is just a project of bring some life and activities into the town of Redding, nothing above. It was Lawyers' idea, but currently most of WWP members are non-Lawyers. Mostly TSAR, Crazy 88 and non-faction guys like me. So, in summary it's Broken Hills Hunters alike just held by another gang in another place.
--- Quote ---1: thing im worried about is if this is a typical MMO style game where it takes forever to do anything,
am I going to be rat celler grinding, killing countless rats to get to my next level?
--- End quote ---
Oh no, you can get some experience points in another way than killing critters. For example First Aid and Doctor skill works more like in Fallout Tactics, but with cooldown. Also, you can get some experience from this few quests available, crafting items, repairing things and avoiding random encounters.
--- Quote ---2: Do I have to spend an hour getting resources, and honing skills to craft my first hunting knife?
do I need to clean up brahmin poo for an hour before I can afford to buy a Nuka-Cola ?
--- End quote ---
Well... yes. And this thing puts scavenging above crafting unfortunately.
--- Quote ---3: Some of the vids I watched it looks like people are standing around a lot ( 3 minutes = a long time)
is there a lot of waiting around for events? or were these people just chatting?
--- End quote ---
Depends of video you've watched.
--- Quote ---4: I heard your character gets ''set backed'' ? if I dont play for a few days, and I come back am I going to have stuff missing?
this does not sound too appealing -.-
--- End quote ---
No. If you have your stuff in own tent or base it shouldn't dissappear, just taken by someone who see your place on worldmap. Otherwise, it was just a rollback due to some technical issues.

Wasn't this thread about some basic questions?
Do not hijack threads. Mod could please remove all these irrelevant posts?

On the contrary, it's totally on topic.
I know most GM literally HATE big gangs and their quarrels and pressure is high to get rid of them all (delete of namecolorizing was a strong hit in stomach).
But well I hope one day you will understand that those big gangs quarrels are part of the game, deal with it (even if I agree many kindergarten joustings are very boring sometimes)
So it IS NOT OFF TOPIC to describe to a new player how the things are going up with big gangs in game.
Not all big gangs do that but many try to make efforts to entertain newcomers and to give them some envy to keep on playing (not all of course, motherfuckers are everywhere).
Please, have at least a small respect for those people.
It is very humiliating to be always treated as BUGS of fonline.
