Y0ssarian:
welcome man. don't mind them for they do this with all the new players.  ;D
also get into the nonmaterialist mindset and walk around with mininal equipment to negate the losses you may encounter and reduce rage.

also come to Vault City, meet religious fanatics, ghoul citizen(s) and other sorts of wierdos!

Gatling:
Welcome to the game. 

Be prepared to have your views challenged, possibly twisted, and most probably insulted.  Probably several times.

Now on to a few tips: be weary of people, as they tend to shoot you in the face as often(if not more so) than not.
-If you are solo with no help, a good build to work with is a simple Smallgun(referred to often as just SG here)crafter + whatever... burster/sniper in this case. Basically your combat skill doubles as your craft-required one, saving skill points.  Of course the flaw of such a build is compromised Everything. Jack of all trades, master of none and such.  It will be useful though, as you make what you need to get by, kill NPC encounters for other stuff you want, and then use your Crafting skills to supplement yourself.  A balancing act based mostly upon taste. 

-I suggest you try to use the wiki to familiarize yourself with some of the Perks and Skills ingame, as there are slight differences between this and the vanilla games. Such as presently: Barter does not function the same, Gambling has absolutely no function yet, and using Melee is an easy way to Death. Alot.  Usually in a messy fashion.  It's a fun skill but when people you are fighting have a bursting weapon, that's just throwing yourself on the sword there. 

-The game has a Line of Sight (or however you want to term it) right now, and if you want to see your limits, used the Q and W keys to bring up two colored lines.  One is for the range of your weapon, the green line is the extent and 'shape' of your sight.  Really not sure how effective or absolute the shape is but anyway.
-The F6 key puts names over players heads.  This will be useful for remembering who shot you in the face, as this will happen. It is a certainty. 

Now as short as I had hoped... but that should hopefully help you a bit.
Oh, and there is always the odd quest for XP and caps/$$$.  Again, look upon wiki or ask the IRC for information. OR better yet, ask ingame. I find the experience interesting to actually bother people ingame for that, then you have a reason to shoot them for the snarky reply! 

OskaRus:
Most importatn thing in FOnline 2238 is to achive 2238 deaths by burst from avanger of some russian nickname. After achieving this death count you will start repaing the wasteland with the same coin.

Lacan:
Also for new players  :

In launcher, configure,

GAME tab : switch autorun "on" )

COMBAT tab : put 3000 ms or sthing to "damage indication on head".


that makes life in the wastes a bit easier !

Also check out the Fonline2238.cfg file in your Fonline folder : there is auto aim feature (aka bindings) and you can make visible names default in 2238 tab.
