Games based on the FOnline Engine Edit

FOnline: The Life After Edit

The first game based on the FOnline engine was FOnline: The Life After. It was only developed in russian and english. The game is set in the year 2246 on the Fallout 2 worldmap.

FOnline: 2238 Edit

FOnline: 2238 was a Fallout game based on the FOnline engine, but the project has since been closed. The game was set in the year 2238, 3 years before Fallout 2 starts and uses the Fallout 1 and 2 worldmap combined into one, allowing players to explore and adventure through the entire 'classic' Fallout world. It also includes an expansive system of professions and crafting items to promote a Player-based economy. The main feature of this game is the ability to enlist with existing canon organisations (such as the mighty Brotherhood of Steel, the up-and-coming NCR or the sinister Enclave), join a player-created faction or even form your own wasteland gang.

Fonline: Reloaded Edit

FOnline: Reloaded is a reboot of FOnline 2238, striving to fix many of the issues that made FOnline 2238 frustrating for some. It promises improved PVP functionality, uncapped leveling, rare item accessibility, better quests and dungeons, and easier crafting. Its first test run should happen starting 8/31/2013.

FOnline: Ashes of Phoenix Edit

FOnline: Ashes of Phoenixis a game based on FOnline engine, but unlike the other FOnline is set in a completely new area, that being the city of Phoenix, and has a completely new map. It is primarly focused on the various factions fighting over control of the city.

FOnline 2 Edit

This is the latest and most anticipated of all FOnline projects. Featuring hundreds of new features, a totally reworked crafting system, new vehicles and items, PvP and PvE quests, and the largest and friendliest english speaking community, it is sure to remain the premiere FOnline game. See http://forum.fonline2.com, their forums.
