Cooldowns, loot, and other B.S.
« on: March 12, 2010, 12:44:21 pm »

Any plans to change?

I seriously think it's ridiculous how much cool-down time there is, especially compared to how often you lose your items through some BS encounter.


60% melee, with a sledgehammer, spending 13 minutes on ONE brahmin, only to MISS every single time and bring me from 32 to 7 health, barely escaping...

Only to run into a random ass person who doesn't speak at ALL and kills me instantly...


The Wasteland is a harsh place, I know, but what the hell? A cow can kill me and I can't return to his grazing land and re-gather my stuff?


I can't even kill the cow... Idk. And then I gather some ore...have to SIT for five minutes, go smoke a cigarette, then i gather more...


really? such a great game, such great potential (cliche?), but I feel like it's trying to be exclusive to just HARDCORE gamers.

Cool story bro.
But seriously, if u have first lvl, don't know how to use weapon, so u can be killed by brahmin. It would be rather strange to kill mobs (crazy mutated bulls!) without equipment and skill (or only skills in hth combat). First you have to get some experience, lvl up, get weapon (gather some bramhin shit), then you'll be able to kill some cows. Wasteland Is hard place for low lvls.

One more ting. Theres already a lot of topics like this. Whats the point in creating new one?

New player's perspectives are always a good way in seeing which direction the game takes. Very few players like LunaBlacke come to the game, try it, and then leave, because of various reasons. Unfortunately no one cares about and all answers they get are "wasteland is harsh" or "cry a bit more". That says a lot of the current playerbase.

Anyway, I have to admit, the first few levels are the most fun in fonline.

Just read forum here and there, and you will find The Wasteland is not such harsh, really :)
btw im frustrated about 6 min cooldown of mining too, it would be better 20-30 minutes = 20-30 ore at once, so after mining u can go kill shit

Then the login-"timeout" should be much higher.

Yeah, sure about this. I know that it was like 30 min before? But why it changed to 10?

20-30 minutes > 10 minutes.

Ah ) ye, u're right...
But damn, its so frustrating to dig, sit 6 minutes doing nothing, then dig again (10 ore = 5 metal parts, 5 ore is waste of time).
Yes, they say u can read forum\make some tea\watch some porn\whatever, but after hour or two it becomes great pain.
oh shi, im complaining, i should leave topic now)

1) I never said I was a first level. I was actually level 2, thank you very much.  :D
2) I had equipment (IE: Leather armor and a sledgehammer)
3) I don't feel like riffling through the forums to find another topic that's not mine. :)

I haven't left at all, I just always need a bit of a break to calm the frustration... xD

Exactly. And I finally gathered some resources, was on my way back to town, encountered some rangers, then as I was about to step off into the world map, some idiot shows up out of NO WHERE and just lays me out... :(

I'll probably end up working up some patience to play later today, but damn, it can be such a pain in the ass...
