A few small suggestions.
Henderson:
Pretty great game. A few small changes could make it alot better though.
Dialogue is a big hit on fun, It's so poorly done in some places that it ruins doing quests completely. I hope in the future that someone is assigned to clean it up.
Another thing that could help out is steamworks. I hear it's very easy to implement into a game, and would provide alot of advantages to not only the players, but the dev team.
Players could download Fonline directly from steam (provided they own Fallout 2)
This would allow free advertising, and bring in alot more donations.
It could also mean more experienced coders, Allowing for quicker/more updates to quests/gameplay. It might even bring in modelers/texturers, In the future we might be able to see more than rats in 3d. ;P
One more small thing I wanted to bring up was merchants. Guns, Radios ect. should be stacked, It would make going through a shop alot easier.
Let me know what you think.

I think that this is a must, but not at this point. The game is still beta and it still have a lot of things to be improved.

IIRC, such feature for the radios is going to be added after the server update. Meanwhile, it's not that simple to apply to guns, since they have a deterioration parameter, so it's not clear how to stack them. If you want to stack them by that parameter, then it will change little to nothing.
Lexx:
Is Steamworks even a valid option? After all, we don't own the Fallout IP nor are we allowed to do anything fancy with it. Also, if I am not wrong now, VALVe decides who has access to it anyway. You can't simply put your game on Steam, that's not possible.
Grommok:
Lexx right. I always thought you have to own the diricts, and even if technically could be done (no money made from this) in the actual pretty "unclear" legal status of FOnline it is pretty a suicide.
Henderson:
Graf: Thanks, I hope to become a regular around here, seems like a good, friendly community.
I totally forgot about weapon condition, I can see how that could be a problem.
Lexx: You are correct, You don't own the Fallout IP, Which is exactly why Fonline is free-to-play.
I seriously doubt Interplay has any problems with Fallout:2238, I'm pretty sure they would have voiced any concerns by now. As far as valve choosing which games go on steam, You are absolutely correct! But that doesn't stop Valve from seeing what a great Fonline is!
(On a side note, I think Interplay would welcome Fallout:2238, Considering it would be a requirement that you own Fallout 2 to download it, It's making them free money.)
Grommok: I don't see it that way, I think the only thing that MIGHT set you back is Bethesda refusing to let the name "Fallout" be used. In which case, Whats so bad about calling the game "Fonline"? I think it's rather catchy ;P
Thanks for the input guys.
Edit: I also noticed no one commented on the dialogue portion. Does nobody care, Or is this already a big issue?
