I downloaded and payed for 1 month to give it a try...

after the turtorials I got into the world, ran arround for about 20 min, didn't see 1 living soul !!!

Allso I would like to make other chars or a new char to check if other factions are better but how do I make a new char!?!?!?

How does the servers work? According to FoM homepage and server-status there are 30 servers all online but when I started to play I didnt get to choose a server? is the world devided on the 30 servers or is it the same thing on all 30 and if so how can I choose to get on same server as a friend?

Allso,, game froze 3 times during turtorials and 2 times during the 20 min running arround not knowing shit what to do... all 5 times resulting in me haveing to reboot to get back on, is this normal??

I allso have and play Entropia Univers, WoW, Matrix Online, HL2 on my PC atm and this problem is only at FoM.

I figured this would happen. Frankly, the game was far from complete, and the premature launch just blew them into the MMORPG mess of junk ::::15::

Yes, one persistent world. You start out in your home base. Mostly not much going on there. You can use the vortex gates to go to other worlds. Depending on your faction you have different things to do. Just ask in Faction chat what your job is. If noone is there (yeah i know population is low atm but advertisements are coming) you can ask in help chat.

Freezeups shouldn't be happening. Have you updated your drivers/directX? Otherwise you can post you can ask for help on the forum.

Its not dead. Theres is a lot of roleplaying going on.

Acctualy this game is not all that bad, just abit slow and low populated.. But after only a short while and talking to some ppl and reading on some forums I relise that if you are tired of all zombie grinding type of games this has great potential,, This is a game for ppl who like the RPG part of mmorpg.

But if there is not comming more ppl into game soon I dont think I will last,, it tends to be really slow when nothing is up, and since it all is player based ppl are recuired to get some action. So hope the creators start that advertising asap and why not throw in a 14 day free trail and shit. :)

And the freezing is solwed,, dunno if I did anything but it's gone :) something to do with grafic card anyways.

Well, because it is a closed economy all the money for new players comes out of the faction funds. And since one of the main objectives for faction is the faction funds free trials will mix that up heavely and can be exploited to ruin another faction. So if there would be free trials i don't think they would allow them to hold any money. And without money you can't achieve much in this game. But still, it might be an option to promote the game.

Im Ron Burgundy , stay classey San Diego

When i played (which i did fro a week) there was a bug that made everyone around you disapper (even on your map) these bugs were sercluded to certain areas like the prison place ( i forget the name lol ) i changed factions when i was LED because well i wanted to see what happened if i killed another LED hehe good times anyway i changed to our rival faction and found that all they did was gank there own faction (i know i did this when i was LED but that was only 3 times and it was because i wanted to see the inside of the prison and some other LED jerk said he wouldnt give me the codes to the prison 'cos i was too low a rank  , also i whanted to know what happened when you got kicked out of a faction , you know all the things you wonder when your new) but anyway you couldnt walk around anywear , even if you were in a huge group withut getting ganked and well thatsone of the reasons why i quit another is that if someone who is high enoth rank to make missions isnt online , there are no missions this is a VERY bad point about the game and there should be computer made missions , there were options to search for them but i never in ONE week off playing found them

Well most faction leaders and high ranks are the older players, while the low ranks are the immature unable to handle leadership type people. I myself am young at 18, but have an r5 position for my leadership, ability to teach, and maturity.

You are probably in MotB, which has old, but immature players. In addition, try talking to your higher ranks don’t just assume we are all 14 years old. This game involves social skills and meeting others. If you are an unknown player you wont get into a cell/department, you wont make any friends, and you will have no supporters making the game suck for you.

FOM is garbage, do not waste your money, the game will be fun for the first week, after that you have done pretty much everything there is to do in the game :/

The game has no content, they claim everything is player run.. Right, because everything is imaginary, every thing in this game is bullshit role-play that is all fake and lame.

The "world" is a collection of levels, basically it is a collection of counter-strike maps to fight on, the colonies have nothing to do on them, there is no reason to go to them. Wars, well after about two days it quickly turns into a long drawn out unreal tournament game.

Why do you pay money for garage projects? So odd... Like giving 15 bucks amonth to some guy you walk by on the street
