In one sitting, or since yesterday? I just wanted to do an informal poll of how strong you are. Feel free to post numbers and hilariously horrible things rollbacks have done to you ;D Here's my story.
Yesterday:
1. I go to purchase a hummer at New Reno, scouting to avoid death squads.
2. Get hummer to base. Use alt to first aid a bluesuit knocked down near Salvador's, bluesuit almost escapes behind me but gets killed anyway. (Attack was pretty lame, I'm shrugging off headshots and easily make the exit grid)
3. Logs off for two minutes.
4. Server rolls back to before I purchased hummer. Have to re-scout and rebuy hummer.
Today:
5. I'm thinking about starting a new character so I'm checking out different cities for big guns, to see if they're easy to supply. Taking no chances, I put my hummer key back into my base before leaving on foot.
6. Run into Artillery encounter, head back to put artillery shells in storage for the lulz.
7. Check New Reno and Broken Hills with alt.
8. Rollback.
9. Check Boneyard with main. When I get there my hummer key and 500 caps in my inventory are back, ready to be thieved and looted. At this point I'm thinking some force really wants me to lose my hummer.
10. Head back to base because of this (to put key back).
11. Server down.
12. Throughout all of this I'm playing with my new character build in nitue, and though dismayed that my artillery shells have now disappeared, I'm finally ready with my new char.
13. Send new character west from NCR, hoping to re-equip from main.
14. Server rollbacks halfway through the journey.
15. Send new character west from NCR, then logs out quickly and hopes they will stick.
I'm sure some of you have suffered worse, so let's hear about it!
-
Hehe yeah it's been bad lately.
Today i registered a new guy and he was about to get his starting quest and BAM server down. When i got back in, he was on the world map with no starting items and no way to get his opening quest.
Later i was collecting junk for Etern's outpost newbie faction plan, and we all know what a grind it is collecting junk. BAM server down and when i got back in, the junk i collected was gone and the magneto laser pistols i made from someone were all gone too.
It's the nature of rollback. If i can just find the blueprint for Age of Empires, i think it will all be okay.
-
i raped a base once, killed all mercs, BAM! rollback.
then raped that same base AGAIN, flee with stolen hummer to my own base, rollback! luckily this time, the rollback took me exactly 30-60 seconds AFTER i left that base.
kill guys in reno, rollback they get their shit back. i get killed in reno, rollback i get my stuff back.
move 5 characters to reno, gear them up (took me about 20 minutes i think), then rollback.
level 5 levels, rollback, level 1.
jovanka made a really cool PVP event, then server crashed, i logged back in (30 minutes later i think), it was almost empty...
if these damned rollbacks and server crashes keep occurring, i'm packin' my shit and leaving. it's far too annoying.
lags, server rollbacks, fucked up PvP, crafting, everything just trying to piss you off, turning this game into really shitty experience.
it's pretty sad, really.
-
its really annoying work hard rollback comes gotta re do it
-
Server crashes often? Need to use it for profit!
I exploded the same dynamite over and over in NCR, so I got fun without loses. But... today I failed, exploded it too fast after server started and now I lost it, server managed to save data few minutes after explosion (I had weakness after rollback), so now I need another dynamite.
Edit: Oh, at least my main has > -1500 rep again and I can waste the same plasma nades again.
-
Yes nothing worse than successfully trolling someone just to have them get their stuff back via rips in the time space continuum.
-

The process of trolling is more valuable than result, especially hearing their insults in my side, and I don't think trolling was "rolled back", I don't care what they felt when they noticed all their items returned, I care what fun I got when saw a group of people suddenly died by a suicidal bluesuiter who just ran in them and exploded for no reason.
-
The server is obviously trolling you. Trollback.
-

Was that the blue vs. red waterworks deal? I liked that one at the onset, but there was no real goal in the long run. It'd be better if people could battle for loot, whether it be through wagers or contest rewards...
Hahah, your double-base rape undone takes the cake; somehow it always hits me when I'm rearranging inventory in lockers and about to logout. It's like "Really?"
Yeah, things like this have made me question how much time I should sink into FOnline; I like seeing the game for what it could be but if it gets too bad there's always some other FO2 mods to try out.

You still play AoE? I messed with Age of Empires II years ago but once Rise of Nations came out I never looked back.
-
Im like a woman with an abusive relationship. no matter how many times i get trolled by the server, i just keep going back.
-
hahah this thread is win. well i lost my fruit corpse (as you may have read). didn't knew at the time that it was a very commen item
-
1. I am at Maltese Falcon bar in Hub and suddenly beautiful woman appears. Ruth Babbeta was her name and we agreed to travel together. She was good with Big Guns so I bought her brand new LSW. Boom, rollback and she was gone. I was waiting for her couple of hours in the bar but she has not returned.
2. The next day I met some woman in Den and we traveled together. But unfortunatelly just for a while. Boom (in my face), rollback and she was gone.
3. Today I met yet another woman, again in Maltese Falcon. Patricia. We have been hunting together for a while (she is pretty good with guns, I can tell you that). And....if there was another boom in my face I would probably kill myself. Luckily we live together till now.

I will refrain from get higher post count so i start to modify this post.
24.05.12 22:09 Lost yet again 10000 XP away today.
25.05.12 16:43 Again, rollback 30 minutes, robbed me of a crafted Needler Pistol and 1000 NH ammo at Mariposa. Goddamnit.
-
Lost yet again 10000 XP away today.
yep me too and many lvls. I want to start playing again but constant lags and troll backs make me realize why this games sucks.
-
Heh. I didnt said the game sucked in general, it just the rollback that is a issue. Because of this i dont See the reason to play. Otherwise, the quality remains at acceptable level.
-
No. You're right, falloutdude. A game that not only require a hour for mining and crafting just for leveling... AND THEN RESETS EVERYTHING YOU ACHIEVED.
It just.
Wastes.
Your.
Time.
And the only thing you get is frustration.
-
I still don't get why you guys bother to play.
-
I still don't get why you guys bother to play.
Because they want to win the game. They must.
-
No, i just hope that the game get better. It is bound to happen. It must. The devs are working on it!
I need a way to conserve all my stuff in game. I will give my every alt a radio and pack up the stuff and 10 brahmin hides on them for tents. The tents will vanish, but the alts will remain. The main char will remain in the car...
-

no they dont...just let it go...
-
Well fuck. The server rolled back again, where it was a half a hour ago.
Why does it happens that often?
-
because devs dont give a fuck about this game ;]
-
I could defend them and say they are on vacation and cannot work all the time on the server. But in the end - it seems the developers gets more frustrated with their work and are short before flipping the table.
Well maybe the do loathe their child of effort already. I would, if i were a developer.

Can't you just put everything in a base or two and log in every three weeks? Cash out as much as possible, perhaps?
Things have been a bit better in Giftless town lately; by shifting my hours to off-times I can usually get in a two-hour session with a single not-so critical crash at the end.
-
No. You see, i dont want to play 2238 right now, nor do i want to take a obligation to maintain something. For now, i just want to forget about this game.
Ill be back maybe in few months, when the issue with the crashes is fixed. Until then, i dont want to be a masochist. Wasteland is harsch enough, i dont want to deal additionally with broken game.
-

Look at your post, and other whiners posts, then guess why.

But talking is remembering ;D Seriously though, if your resources are gonna go to waste you might as well A) Do some charity thing, or B) Buy some hos.
-

people only whine because devs do nothing.if they did something they would get praise but instead they get whined at for doing nothing. they need to pass the torch on to new devs who will bring a new fire.

Take it out to the dumpster, it's gathering flies.....

They don't need to do anything, its their game, and they do what they want, if they want it to rot, it will rot.
You guys don't get it , that they already said - if players whine = nothing changes, if they insult them or BLAME ( which is funnier there) they don't care, if people won't donate more = THEY"LL SHUT THE GODDAMN SERVER AND PLAY ON THEIR OWN.
Deal with it. Its not Free game made by studio, but by people with their families and their REAL LIFES (huh hard one).
And you said about passing torch - its like giving out a not repaired car for free, nothing there is for free and they wont give it away.
-
Yeah the devs clearly spent years on this to play an mmo solo. At this point i think this project is more resume building than anything else since they aren't concerned about the complete lack of content and focus on behind the scenes coding. All game have a shelf life before the players get bored and move on, the game started off looking decades behind from the get go and after like what 3-4 years of barebones beta you expect the players to stay? The fact anyone is still here is a testament to the hardcore fanbase/people with infinite patience that remain. There is no pve but grinding, pvp is sporadic and imo best during events. When there are large pvp events the game lags to shit, the servers clearly can't handle even the meager load placed on it by the 150 or so people that still play. An optimistic guess that 5% of the playerbase actual sends money for server upkeep isn't going to keep things going when there is no progress. If the devs fixed things people actually cared about and had small regular updates things would keep going, just look at minecraft. Up until 1.7 the game had pretty much no content but they added bits at a time and now its getting more and more kickass. They need to make the game wackier, ignore the calls for harshness and realism and implement some basic things every mmo needs like a god damn FRIENDS LIST so you know when people are online or a chat system that doesn't involve getting a radio and holding it and syncing channels. Instances, quests, unique items, auto attack (fot style), npcs that don't spout awkward engrish and actually have some depth to their personalities. Hell just adding in all the weapons would be nice, wtf is the point of leaving out the top tier for the shitty combat types like flamer mk2 and mega power fist? I just hope 3d dev swoops in and saves the day before everyone gives up on 2238 and it becomes a massive waste of everyone involved's time.
-
And now we'll see if anyone cares. What is irrelevant, since everyone will come back sans alternative. The game will always have players coming and if someone goes, fine, another one will join.
Like someone care about the population! It's the open beta, you're free to join, if you don't like it, bye. The game could get closed beta, you know? Only the ones who get invited and behave will be able to test play on 2238, how would you like it?
And the problem with the traffic will get solved, since there are only few players online who are actually dedicated to the testing process.
-

Still not enough developers to even go out of beta.

oh rry? it's OUR game dude. i refuse to believe it's THEIR game, because if it would've been THEIR game they could've just made a basement LAN party alright?

and you don't get it though your skull already that NOT WHINING does 0% for the server, WHINING does 0.01%(at least now). still better than 0, innit?
Deal with it.
i won't.
Its not Free game made by studio, but by people with their families and their REAL LIFES (huh hard one).
agreed. but as long as you embark on a project that desperately requires feedback, IMHO you should LISTEN to the feedback, or at least keep the dumbass players up to date with some shit. (even if it's useless stuff, even if nothing happens)
all in all i don't get the general attitudes here
1) "stop whining" - which we all know is bullshit
2) "it's their game, F$%@ off." - i'm not gonna bother elaborating this crap.
3) "wasteland is harsh/go play hello kitty online" - in here it's just losers trying to make game harder to fit their 1337 h4rdc0r3 styl3.
4) "if you don't like it fuck off" - if i dont' like it i try to make it better somehow and so should you.
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.
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
and so on and so forth, you get the point.
-
oh rry? it's OUR game dude.
So what's your contribution? Any maps? Scripts? Dialogues? Maybe updated article in Wiki?
Yours, sir, is what you can get from your arse.

It's our game because no one else will play it

Lol, actually that's true! As sad as it is to say, it's absolutely true! 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!

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

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.
-
3) "wasteland is harsh/go play hello kitty online" - in here it's just losers trying to make game harder to fit their 1337 h4rdc0r3 styl3.
How the fuck is the HURRshness related to server crashes, goddamn? >:(
4) "if you don't like it fuck off" - if i dont' like it i try to make it better somehow and so should you.
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.
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
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...
-
they are happening way too much work hard lose all the work finish that work work hard on something else same thing
-
lost my 8 brahmin hides, leather armor suit, 2 stimpaks and a canister of jet :'(
-
drugs are bad
-
AND PLAY ON THEIR OWN.
that wud be prety fun a solo of this lol
-
lost my 8 brahmin hides, leather armor suit, 2 stimpaks and a canister of jet :'(
Not that much. I lost 3 blueprints (needler gun, jet, plasma nades).
As I already have a jet blueprint stocked, I wanted to check wether or not it will appear in my fixbox after "eating" it as someone reported it didn't.
1 of my alts has the same issue with SCP, so I think I know what the problem is.
Unfortunately 1 of yesterday evening's rollbacks prevented me from testing it.
-
How many server rollbacks can you take? (And keep on playing)
Me ? Infinitive.
However, in making that vision a reality the developers are following their own take on things.
It's all right , they are making their own game and that is completely acceptable , they are maintaining the server after all and don't forget how much work has been put by them into this project. The one big major flaw is that they don't play their own game , they don't know what is going on in their own developed game. Reminds me of Solar looking at flat number charts that represents some sort of weapon DPS comparison and he actually believes he has made the right choices for changes , well to be precise guessues even when changes aren't needed. Ridiculous isn't it ?
Of course they don't have time to play their own game , i understand that too because normally there is the community , " beta-testers " that provides feedback on the areas of improvement and so on , but they have stated more than once that they make their own game and the feedback of the community might as well be drained down a pipe. Far-fetched experiments of their own all the time. The game has been developedtoyed 3 years and it is far from playable. Players refuse to stick around and play this game , because each wipe is just another disappointment and there is always the hope for the next wipe , but guess what it's false hope. The project will never be finished to any degree.
Now that i got that out of my system , i will go make a tea. Have a nice day. ;D
-
i refused to play now due to those rollbacks
i wonder how long it will last...
-
roll backs don't happen at night so during the day is for ncr idling
-
but im gmt+1, i use night mostly to sleep...
but thats interesting clue, can it mean server cant handle too many players?
-
The crashes are too regular to be caused by player numbers, maybe the server they rented also does other things during the day? Seems to be getting worse though, went from lag spike every 20 minutes to crash with roll back like every 35 min.
-
so maybe they buy out too limited banwidth?and during night they get what others dont use but during day only what they paid for? i dont know how it works really
and if you say rollback is every 35minutes, and rollback takes you 30 minutes back... then how people play it?
and how to prevent loosing tents after month ? you would have to login in those 5 minute window so server can save info that you logged in and prolong your tent expiration
-
Well see in two weeks when the first "wheres my tent" complaints pops out. I will get myself some locker alts.
-
the server saves every 30 minutes but its not in sync with the crash, sometimes i lose a few minutes sometimes i lose 20
-
lost a tent, a level up, 3 brahmin hides, a large part of the map revealed
-
Fuuuuu...I lost my 2nd comppanion ever!!
Curse you Rolllback
-
lost a tent, a level up, 3 brahmin hides, a large part of the map revealed
I'm at the point where I'm playing in microtransactions--earlier today I did about three encounters in fifteen minutes, quit, and checked back later. Only one of the encounters was rolled back, not too bad.
-
nah i tried today twice, rolled back everytime, game is totally unplayable now
-
4 hatchets, 4 sledge hammers, 15 junk, 70+ pieces of wood, 5 metal parts, my campfire
-
It comes eventually to a point, where you cant achieve anything in game. Got level-rollback. Crafted stuff-rollback. Traveled two squares-rollback. Brew some coffee-rollback. Survived a hard friday at work, opened some cold beer-ROLLBACK, ROLLBACK, ROLLBACK.
Goddamnit.
-
Germany cannot into good server stability. No offense, Germany.
-
Rollbacks wont break me, I can take plenty, it's just a game. I play for fun bros, wish you the same.
-
Game is still playable, just play 30mins after every crash/restart then w8 for next crash/restart and play next 30 mins. Easy! U will loose nothing. Who can play in deep night can play hours without troubles(i Hope this will not go worse).
-
Went to Hinkley to pass the time but time went back instead.
Got stuck at War Zone with nothing but my bluesuit.
-
Have the devs said anything about how things are going with trying to deal with the problem? It seems bad enough that you should expect them to at least say what it is and how they're dealing with it. You know, so people are slightly less annoyed by it.
Also, this entire server skipping thing is making it almost impossible for me to make any progress. I can only ever play in short bursts, so most of the time I play, and then leave, and come back to find that all of my progress was lost due to rollback. Rinse and repeat.
Also, because of my schedule, I generally can only get much time in when the server is most likely to rollback, so maybe 30% of the time I actually accomplish something that isn't rolled back.

This works for me ;)

Devs make server crash permanently so the heavy FOnline addicted would have a chance to get clean. This is very noble of them.
-
omg just found bp BAM server crash... :'(
just maybe no rollback?
EDIT: NOooooooooooooooo
-
I guess its new feature, in which you can save & load game progress.
Its great for casuals.

Speaking of addictions, there's no better cure for FOnline than mods like the FO2 restoration project.

Damn, it's a tough choice between driving a Cadillac and meaningless grinding with rollback. 8)
-
I see my whole progress of today's play is gone, aka. 2 hours. Well fuck goddamn, i'm so out this evening. I need a beer.

i have used the same plasma nade for 6-7 days running haha

fonline rolls back more than the foreskin on a compulsive masturbater
-
How many server rollbacks can you take? <<-- I can not take it anymore. FO is great game, but roolbacks ruins it. When me and my team can play together, there allways are rollbacks.
Now all of us stopped playing, because of them :'(
It's simply worthless when you have to get the some level/stuff 8 times :/
I remember old times when we could play fallout without such unpleasent amusment.
-
Game is perfect and, if only server were stable, all of us would come back to FO.
-
Game is perfect and, if only server were stable, all of us would come back to FO.
Keep in mind majority of quitters (about 100-150 players) quit due to mechanics, not unstability of server.
-
Before changing server to Berlin i thought that was bad because of lag etc but now it is out of any comment. I am out of this game, too less players, too boring, cya!
-
geez, curse these roll backs, we were at glow with so much loot then BAM!
A rollback....
-
I think we need another server, again. The game is quite dead by now - would you play something that resets your progress randomly? I would not and would not recommend.
-
Don't worry we don't need a new server , just like everyone else have faith , developers will most probably come back in a week or two and fix everything ...
and now i don't really contemplate whether i am serious or not , i am just fixed in my opinions and well maybe i'm naive , but what harm this could bring , correct me if i'm wrong. :)
... trollbacks
-
Rollbacks are feature...

What happened?
Nerfs, stupid limits, restrictions, cheat-encouraging features and ideas, random whine of some crybabies that leads to disabling, more nerfing or screwing up X or Y ("they killed me, nerf it!" stands here for "balance"). And on top of that - rollback every hour or two, for over a month now.
Wipe was in January this year, average 200+ characters logged in, almost 500 in peak hours. Nowadays it's not even 25% of these numbers (http://www.rookie.name/fonline/playerStats.php?r=year&s=1338816327&ts=0&ar=0&step=12). I believe something went terribly wrong. Pity.

Ohh well i guess i got my answer .
But maybe if devs reverted the game to make it look slightly like previous sessions maybe some people would come back and more would join...maybe.

Why doesn't this game have an intro?

What happened?
:(
Wichura forgot to mention a gamemaster driven event called the great banwave. I wasn't playing back then , but if i hear players still calling game masters in names for that , then it must have been something mighty impressive to piss off a lot of players in a short time cutting the population numbers by a great deal. I can imagine details of what exactly happened , not very hard to imagine. They have learned from the mistakes and as you see now dual logging is in the grayish okay area , not so over confident anymore to give random bans , unnecassery , illogical , irrational ones ... at least in game.
Dog gets a beating , dog can get very angry and you see players are like dogs. Take away a bone from a dog and there are not much options to happen , dog gets angry , is obedient or he barks and makes a ridiculous demotivating , unpleasant sound to the master. Get it ?

They see server rolling (back). They hating.
The server machine seems totally ok for handling 500 players max. online game. I guess you have to fix / reinstall your software.

Why doesn't this game have an intro?
Just restoring eras number *put random number here* situation with a server wipe would make high and stable peak of players for at least one year.
Devs have else to do.But damn,just a message to say *hey guys bbs in a couple of months to fix this pile of shit* wouldn t be that bad.

Life's too short for game intros when you're ultralogging your 31 alts.
-
Well at the current rate fonline might be updated before the year 2238
-
server is up for 3 hours???!!! is this bug? please fix this...
-
Server rollsback so much that this game will be a dino shooter in a few weeks.
-
I just took my last server crash.LAST one.Can t take it anymore.
-
I just bought a hummer. Went to the Boneyard to complete a quest and went back to my tent to log off.
Now I log in again and I'm back in the Boneyard and my car is gone. I hate those rollbacks.
I think that's it for me. Fuck this shit!
-
I play unarmed, leveled char and hang around NCR. Travel nowhere, no leveling, no buying anything, just kick random marauders and rats in V15 and listen to random shit on bazaar.
Wait to the game getting better and craft 3d models.
-
I've been trying 5 times to get to Vault City and I got there 3 times.
But every time I try, I end standing somewhere arround Modoc, exactly in the place from which I've started the journey.
The game in the current shape is totaly unplayable.
-
Got in two hours with only one rollback today; a bartering and crafting life isn't so bad ;D
-
ah..these rollbacks are annoying, I lost 2 mercs and caps,

look at server status. if uptime is less than 45 minutes you can play safely without losing your stuff. if uptime is more than 45 minutes expect a crash. server crashes every hour.
-
yea it is annoying why aint they doing anything about this? why wont they fix this its every 20 mins that the sever crashes and they wonder why everyone is leaving fix the server
-
Just read Dope's post above and you will be fine.
-
Well, looks like it's fixed (knock on wood). Server has been up for 3 days.
Now that I'm done with classes for the summer, and I need something to distract me from my thesis, maybe I'll try my hand again.

The first day I played, I encountered NCR Rangers and a crap-load of Raiders. The NCR win, I loot the bodies and get a great set of metal armor, a grease gun with a bunch of ammo, and a ton of other cool stuff... Then the inevitable happens, and I lose everything...
