Prze-Huy:
I am also concern about rollbacks so the question is:
If community of players would donate 100-200$ would it change something? Just spent 60bucks for sh##y diablo3 so I can sell it and donate you 20$ monthly, I am sure that others also would donate, as soon as we get feedback like "yes, donate 200$, we change server for more stable, and fo2238 get its second live"
I am eagerly awaiting for the answer.
And second question:
I understand that devs are only humans, gamers, fans; its not uncommon that some morning you wake up and think "s##t I dont want care anymore about fo2238, im bored of it" thats ok, but for community its not that easy, the game is our way to rest after hard day at work, for you it is just hard work. So if it happened that you are got bored, have you consider to put all responsibility for servers, game and so one in someone others hands? Maby to someone from forum here, who looks like serious, responsible person? Who would care for long long time, who has his own well maintained servers
Thanks for readin, thanks for answers
Cheers

Donation is donation, it's not a payment :D
Donation is for hosting server for us, that's why they don't use their own money. Donate not enough - they warn about it. Donate enough - they host it. Donate more than enough - they host it and won't warn for some time after.
And it's their project, you're just helping them to test it, I don't think they really care about community because they shouldn't, as they're doing it for themselves, not for you. If some of them care about community then it's just a sympathy to fallout fans and they're happy to see them enjoying their game. But they will never give it to someone, as they're making their game.
Btw there's an SDK available, of course it's based on less successful server, but still that

can do it himself even right now. Then host it and make everyone happy.

Are you serious? Why would I spend time developing MMORPG just for myself?
And I would not ask my question if I didnt see that some of the devs are answering from time to time (Lexx, Wipe). I would really like to know what is causing the crashes.
If the problem is that there isis not enough donations, they could just say it and I bet the problem could be solved very quickly.
If there is some problem, that they dont know about, they could just say what we as beta testers should do, so they can solve the issue.
If there is some problem, that they know about, they could just say it, so we as beta testers and users of their product just know what is going on.
I think this is just basic how to make a good relationship, not only dev-tester but person-person in general.

I think you are right.
The problem is, that with the game, devs created whole community some people are less other more engaged in game but it do exist.
And now very important thing is communication and feedback. Its like parents having sex for pleasure, but in consequences they have kids, and they have to give them some attention.
OK, so my another question is: where can i find counter saying how many $ is actually donated for devs/servers like Wikipedia has every year when collecting theirs donation.
It would be wise having one like that.

Probably an admin/dev answer is: nope, go play something else. We are doing this game in our free time bla bla
we're not real coders bla bla we are prostitutes.
