Why there are not enough players?

prowokator:
How should I know! How does the 10minute cooldown work when changing between alts now? And if having crazy minmax guys can't be got rid of, change the char creation somehow.. I know it ain't gonna happen but I would guess I'm not alone with my thoughts. How about you get SPECIAL points when you level up/pick perks? Only minor adjustment in the beginning, then later getting perks like "athletic nature" that allows you to raise STR to certain amount in time. Something like that. Could make the game a fair deal more interesting. Now it could just as well be "pick a char you want" and play, something like in TeamFortress.

Kinda off topic:
Back in the nineties I used to play cyberpunk/postapocalyptic themed MOO where you had to write a background for you char (300-500 words), send it to the GMs who read it, and then you got approved or not, and were able to get in game. Oh yeah, and in that game you could perma die if you couldn't afford to buy a clone.. That certainly limited the Alts and made you cling to your char, and made it feel like a RPG. A bit overkill for today's standards I know.. but man, never since have I spent 2 hours drinking in a bar in a game and ending up getting into a fight with an arms dealer in the back alley, who was a player too. Or have seen (well, it was a text based game, so maybe "read" instead) a laser beam being shot from Earths orbit to destroy a whole city block and every player unlucky enough to be in it, just to get even with some other player gang. Those were GM written events, ofc. Guess if many people wanted to participate in those. We do have GMs in Fonline too, and I don't think all the events need to be ones that can only be resolved by guns. But why bother with all the apes running around in CAs carrying avengers, what could they want more..

Wichura:
You might be interested in this, sir.

About limiting alts all has been said already, long long time ago. Still we have like 80 000 characters with average 200 people playing. Something went terribly wrong.

AdorableRage:
gotta think about how many new players quit also. this game is very hard to start out...i have a crafter and just made a thief (for encounters not being annoying) and its hard to do anything....need a tent to store things but i cant get any caps to get a tent since all the caps are sucked dry from npcs...and lets face it nobody wants to shovel poop for 2 days

Savager:
Its more easy to craft BB and sell it that shovel poop.

Wichura:
Didn't you try to hunt brahmins to get hides, instead of buying them?
