Then the devs get annoyed because folks would rather do shit themselves then trust a potential griefer.

Exactly my point! Why care about alts?

Gorlak:
Who cares about alts? lots of people, but it is not hugest issue because in a game such as this, it is unavoidable.
The only issues to arise from them, is the use of more than one character at a time, and avoiding the anti-alt timeout(which is only 3-5 minutes, not the 10 which is displayed) to change between characters.

Hm, last "seasons" I could easily avoid them. I had/have an armorer/small guns crafter on level 2 of each. I still had decent combat skills to kill creeps. I have fun, short to say. If I want higher tier stuff, I ask other people if I can buy stuff. If I am in need of a helping hand, I ask other people to help me to compensate my rather mediocre combat skills. The thing that really kills this approach this game is people min/maxing and only want to PvP with "I win Buttons" like Powerbuilds.

The problem is people breaking down the game to a PvP simulator and to have everything possible with least of afford, like with alts doing the shit for your main character. This mentality btw arose the last 4-5 years when "pr0 pvp gaming" became more popular.


Fallout and all the people true to the setting suffer from that.

Quite right.
In this case, as time goes on,  less and less people are interested in playing FOnline, as an MMO in which you need to interact with other people to gain the items / or employ the abilities of others , and rather see it as an isometric shooter.

LagMaster:
