Fallout Online...Gameplay
« on: January 12, 2010, 10:09:42 am »

Currently FOnline game balance is according to town control event.

Gathering and Crafting times are set to slow down players from overgearing for that town control event.
But also - its not secret that every mmorpg have bots - FOnline is not exeption and is also swarming with bots who gather materials. And its not secret that those bots are in 90% set by players who are taking part in town control event.

Now about Gather times - those are to slow down bots, but those timers are killing fun for casual player. Ore/Minerals gater time is only 5 minuts- yes - but as a casual player after diggin 5 ores you have to just sit there and watch screen for entire 5 minuts to dig once more. This is super-boring for human but its to slow down bot-autoclicker gatherer "who dont care he have to wait 5 minuts to dig". And so on and so on.

And now if FOnline continue to be balanced around this town control event, it will be mmorpg for players only intrested in gameplay like this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt7EJv7w5jU  .

No idea how you concluded it is to slow bots...It is to slow bots, and 'normal' players as well.

Bot playing 24 hours a day will be always capable of doing 24 more than you, if you play one hour.
