I just wanted to share my beginning to FOnline: Reloaded
I had just got nostalgic and finished fallout 1 and 2 all restored and fixed up and then found Fonline: Reloaded while lookin for modding tips.. Couldnt believe i missed this these couple years.
Fallout Char Ok i got this. - Noob thoughts
4
Strength - gonna need to carry stuff obviously.
6
Perception - All I ever needed to hit stuff in Fallout
6
Endurance - Thats tough enough to take some hits
2
Charisma - I want a companion, Thats cool.
8
Intelligence - Im always a smartass
8
Agility - 9 AP is good.
6
Luck - Good Luck
Fast Metabolism- I didnt need drugs in Fallout.. i imagine, healing will be handy.
Fast Shot - I couldnt possibly have time to snipe eyes against PLAYERs!! no way jose
-Small guns, -firstaid, -lockpick. Good to Go!
Started as normal, Had a message to deliver, learned something about drinking water, goto the hub.
Caravan guard said something about going up to broken hills and redding.. im thinking, no way the map goes that far north!?
Head to the hub, on my way I encounter 3 raiders. No Problem. I know fallout, i'll just use my action points to walk to exit grid.
Wrong, Right as the zone loads and They start firing at me, the 3rd punk charging me spear in hand.
WHat!?! Its not Turnbased!? OMG, I Run! Straight to the left towards the grid, and watch in realtime the 3 raiders sprinting after me. I couldnt help but Laugh at the circumstance thinking "So THIS is what it woulda looked like in realtime, all those times i ran in Fallout.... COOL!" Then I quickly learn how to change default to TB... I know TB...
Get to the Hub walk in and see a group in combat armor chatting about something..
I was expecting either everyone wore power armor, or leather jackets. But nope, just Combat armor.
I say "Coooool" My first time chatting in Fonline! Some one showed me where to drop boxes and I knew from Fallout experience
where abouts to find the FarGo Traders.. delivered my message, explored abit then
A girl in combat armor comes over, gives me a gun and tells me to follow them
they show me footlockers in boneyard, explain its dangerous. As she picks the lock of the box and lets me grab the stuff, a sneak burster blew her away from behind.. I had time to say Omg, and enough AP i guess to escape.. barely... welcome to fallout.. i got lucky!
Then i notice the tent in the wasteland quest on map, and i head that way. Do the quest, get the tent, and decide im going to move the tent closer to the hub.. Thats when I get jumped by Someone. Was only dogs or something, but the laser blasts from out of sight told me i was screwed. I am Dead, Tent, All that loot, everything. My Rubber Boots!
I reload only to realize, the tent quest is over, and i am tentless.
So I head back to the hub and start shoveling crap..
Then I meet another player, Also shoveling crap. We give eachother some tips of what little we know, and we start working together.
I am able to trade some loot in before long to buy the materials for a fresh tent, and then I begin to really loot
When I wasn't looting i was mining near junktown, or trying to figure out bases.
Finally when i had gathered the 35k to buy a base, i start doing some research to learn i can build bases.
Then I learn I can capture cows with rope.
So i start mining and gathering materials, and using a trusty brahmin to get my scores home.
I finally figure out how to build a base so I do it, I start construction of a Depot. My new friend assisting along the way.
The Day came when i had to get my hundreds of wood and junk to the construction site from my tent.
But how!? I dont know the first thing about cars and I probably cant afford one.. and my cow is too unreliable, i'll be pretty upset if my cow dies sumwhere with 800 materials...
Then I stumble upon a Cart Seller... cheap and all i need is my brahmin! Perfect! SO COOL (a useless caravan cart maybe useless but soooo damn cool)
Up until that point I only ever went out in a blue suit.. Now its time to Lock and Load.
I Grab my best Mk 2 Combat Armor i found looting, my Best Assault Rifle, a 44magnum and a tonne of ammo, Load up my Cart
with everything i own and I went.
I had hoped to wait for my friends assistance but i was impatient. that depot needed building!
It was one of the best adventures I had. Me and my Brahmin Cart with everything i owned. It got really close a couple times, but i Made it. Built the depot, and we have been doing ok for ourselves since.. Have quite a parking lot now =D
Good Times, Good Game! Here's to More good times in the future! Reloaded I Salute You
