How many server rollbacks can you take? (And keep on playing)

It's more like a shared dream; a lot of us can agree that combining the best of Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics is a good idea. However, in making that vision a reality the developers are following their own take on things. FOnline has its strengths for sure, but unless the devs address the weaknesses they run the risk of losing players to splinter groups who build a better mousetrap. Or to games that are better polished in general.
I've noticed too, not in your post in particular, but just in the general forum atmosphere being a players vs. developers kind of thing. And sure, some players get emotional and want unrealistic things, but you also have criticism which reflects back on whether the game is working or not. I say this kind of observation isn't personal, rather...well...the main thing is that a game developed is enjoyable for the players.
Now the devs are perfectly free to do things that we disagree with or find unpleasant. If they go so far as to make the game fail due to some of those things, I'm cool with that. My role is to give criticism (which is freely given as the game is freely given) and to spend time on games which I enjoy for as long as I enjoy them ;D

You can't get a normal sane person to sit down and play this game for an hour, just try it. Nobody really can stand to play this game, half are hardcore PvP apes that gave up because TC doesn't work. The other half is NCR chit chat idlers and the trolls they attract. Another half is mods, gms and devs that hate the playerbase. Come to think of it this is a pretty fucking cool game!

(I tried to find a video about being over 100%, I guess you'll have to watch a dumb beauty queen instead. Skip to :50)

That needs to be turned into a title screen! Make Slater into a bluesuit--one who laments his career path--and dip South Carolina into an F.E.V. vat. There's nothing like a post-apocalyptic beauty contest to give FOnline the direction it needs.
(Slater is the new master; he's like a Chosen One turned bad! Or depressed. Because there's no television stations. Or high schools with principals!)

If you think 5 minute rollbacks are really that bad then just go to T-ray's garage and buy a Delorean.

How the fuck is the HURRshness related to server crashes, goddamn? >:(

Oh yeah, players suggested and even made done solutions, like knockdown script. But the Rotators seem to be allergic to fucking everything that was not made by them, very unlike to the Russians.

5) "game is good as it is and game is free so it doesn't matter if features turn to crap." - again no point in elaborating.

Sounds like S/M to me.
--- Quote ---6) "oh look at me i make useless crap suggestion that won't help the general gameplay, but i just like to think it does" - mhmm
--- End quote ---
Because suggestions aren't taken seriously anymore. It's just a Cafe of Broken Dreams to share something that just remains a empty idea. Rotators don't even read them, face it! The whole section is just a dump that keeps the PMs from devs away.
And what's about a little offtop in a section that isn't taken seriously by anyone?

Oh God, please give me the will power to quit this game....... Nevermind God...
