This quote constitutes the one and only reply that people such as the OP should get.

I'm serious here.

If you cannot even get a pistol after hours of playing, FOnline2238 is simply not for you. You will never come to enjoy this game. Especially now that every single aspect of it has been largely ruined. Do yourself a favor and uninstall the game.

Solar:
Yes, I'm working on the basis that a lot of hyperbole has been used in complaints ... otherwise I doubt their ability to have actually turned their computer on and typed the message :P

I also think the factions, when they eventually get up and running, wil be an easy place for new comers to exist and learn the fundamentals.

But lets be clear, new players aren't coming on wanting instant top tier gear and max level ... there is no reason for a new player to log in and expect that. They want to make a little progress without being reset to zero al the time, they want to gain a few levels without dying 100 times, they want content, they want to meet a few people. The way we are set up now isn't particularly new player friendly - but we can still get better at those things without losing the harshness of the higher levels.

This season is going to be a bit of an odd one, becuase we are still going to be closing economy loopholes throughout it. Some people will benefit, some will lose out - but, the hope would be that we get to a place where next wipe we have an apropriate rate of gain for things, high tech is high tech and all gangs have an equal start (stopping TC working for the first few days seems like an obvious thing too).

Dear Solar, please try and actually play the game you are one of the leading developers of, and let's see what your This game is broken/too harsh thread, which you will undoubtedly start after a few hours of playing, will look like, and how strong your tendency to exaggerate things when writing it will be.

Ha, what an unusal way of replying to someone agreeing with you. Kudos.

Tell you what, just for you, I'm going to stop working on the game, allocate myself 5 hours, no, 6 hours, and see if I can craft a gun in that time to confirm/disprove my hypothesis that that claim was hyperbole!  ::)

JovankaB:
You have much more knowledge about the game than a new player (who doesn't even have to know Fallout 1/2).
So it would prove nothing anyway :)

Although I suppose even you don't know all the game quirks and dirty tricks FOnline powerplayers have in their arsenal.

The problem is steep learning curve and the fact that the game doesn't help much here. Not that it's too difficult.
People are thrown in the middle of harsh world with very little hints what to do.
