Attention! Now everybody can make his own Fallout Online, with blackjack and hookers. The SDK, which allows making significant changes and launching your own servers, has been published. While this, keep in mind, that SDK can only be used for non-commercial personal use (read the license agreements for more details on this).
Have a nice survival! In other words – Enjoy a game building!

about how many players does this mod have>
Over 9000 :3
40 000
i think this is a good idea, the original creators made the game unplayable unless you were with people and when you start off no ones there. so you get your *** kicked. the enemies were way too hard.
FOnline: 2238 is not the original game. The original game ships with this SDK.
Wait meaning if you don't own the game you can use the SDK and still play the original???
Well if someone were to make a MMO, please make it easier on the newcomer by making them go through some sort of tutorial... Not all curious players are fans of Fallout. The problem is whether people can stop being selfish enough to care.
With original, I mean FOnline: TLA. FOnline: 2238 was build up on it.
You can make a 100% own game, if you replace all Fallout elements (graphics, SPECIAL, etc.) which is possible. If you don't do this, you need Fallout 2 because of the graphic files.
Finally
It'd be ridiculous if somehow someones takes this SDK and turns it into a workable MMO that's NOT fallout...
Has similar styles and functions, but operates at a whole different level!
So basically, imagine a fantasy game where players can build and own houses for example, those kind of MMOs... To be able to change the game itself.
Haven and Hearth is a good mmo to play, but the dev seems like pushing on the "traditional hardcore point and click" players... They can be lazy with coding and the server is hosted in a dorm, meaning there's unbearable lag at times, and you get server crashes... Even though it's a alpha, it doesn't mean they can skimp on the stability of a game! Wonder if "They" would give out server hosting capability to other people... Because a lot of people would love it!
There's a reason why things became convenient in video games. >_>
will you release the 2238 server as well?
because that would be asome.
why would you want that... I want to know if I can just forward my port and host from my computer.... cause I'm a programmer well student programmer and im working on making my own 2238 I got the server up but lol... my friends can't connect to my glorious game :D
They can't join because there are missed files so l can't join my server too the video and music is missed and other
