I just found this game today and the people making it have said they have got permission from Bethesda to make it and are not making any money on it.

I Am going to need another hard drive soon,

Damn theses game designers and my addictions...

I love the Fallout series

I bought a 1.5 Terabyte Hard Drive Exclusively for all my GOG games = D

Cool I played some Fallout 2 mmo mod but didnt know what was going on I may try this one out when its released

Using the Fallout name was dumb. Expect it to be killed off by a lawsuit in the near future.

You can find a few more on http://www.moddb.com/
Search for FOnline on that site.

FOnline: 2238 is days or weeks away from a server wipe. Meaning the world gets renewed with new gameplay, new quests, new settings, etc. It will be a good time to join.
You can find that one on http://www.fonline2238.net/forum/
FOnline: 2238 is a Fallout 2 mod requiring Fallout 2.

I wonder if Bethesda gave them permission just to fuck with Interplay? It wouldn't surprise me.

Australia would make a great post-apoc setting. Can't wait to see where they go with this.

Yeah this sounds interesting now all we need is mad max in it as well and we are set.

Interplay doesnt matter its all Zenimax and there lawyers... if they got the green light it doesnt matter the offical MMO is in the works the modders can goahead from my understanding... falls in the same vein as Black mesa and the original valve redo...
