RandomWastelander:
Hey can you guys give me some basic tips and builds. I've been playing with a rather good character build for like maybe 4 hours and I haven't seen anyone, where is everyone ? I herd the game isn't deserted and I see the community is friendly but where's everybody ?

falloutdude:
check ncr there is many people there willling to kill you.

first you only need 3 charima for tradeing so if you have more then that remake build.
take both life givers at lvl 12 and 15 you need both for good hp or else you will have like 100 and die very easy.
if someone comes 1 hex next to you there either trying to fa,steal you(most likely) or burst you and kill you.
find a faction quick this will help you alot.
if you know what irc is go on it and join #2238 if not wiki it and then do it.
for luck anything of this vaule is fine 1,6(for toughness and bonus ranged damage for bursters) and 10(for snipers) anything other then theses values are unless.

other people will post things i missed.

A lot of people I know, a lot of my mates is not playing at the moment, as we all are waiting for the server wipe. It will come ... well, "soon", but nobody can tell any precised time or date, so feel free to enjoy the game for now.

And about "starter" build, here, try this one:


Not so good fighter, but versatile enough and pretty self-sufficient. Real tough combat ape looks totally different anyway and it's much easier to start a game with such "woodsman" as above.

Wind_Drift:
To check both the server status and how many players are currently online, go to the "Home" button of this forum and scroll down to the lower right hand corner.  When it is green, the server is up and running and you can see how many players are currently logged on, and how long the server has been up.  When the server is offline it will be red.

The server population has declined in recent weeks/months because many players are waiting on the server wipe.  What this means, is that everything will be reset.  All characters, tents, bases, gear, will all be gone.  We get to start anew.  There is no official date for the wipe, but most believe it will happen very soon.  Also with the wipe, a lot of changes will be implemented to the game.

My personal advice is use the time you have before wipe to familiarize yourself with the map, towns, and some of the basic mechanics of the game.  Don't worry too much about having a good build, since it will be obsolete soon anyway.

Your best bet on finding other players is in NCR (Shady Sands).  There are usually people there at all hours.  Remember that you have a higher likelihood of running into other players when the server has more people logged on, so you  might check that before you decide to start looking for other people.

Fair warning: NCR is kind of... well, dangerous.  So don't take it too personally if something bad happens to you.  There are good players there as well as "bad" players.

You can learn a lot by reading some of the threads in the Survival Guides/Game Help section just below this one.

Good luck.
