Topjej 7:12 The Wiki jej. Yeah its just some random Wiki. Wiki-tricky.
Can you say FOn-line more please?
I just started Xenonauts and planning on playing Xenonauts 2 since it came out shortly. Although there isn't really a story in these games, I would love to hear the big paragraphs of texts being read by yours truly.
WAAIT a second you never mentioned FOnline 2238 when it was popular it had like a thousand players online at any moment.
would you do a video on gaming in Russia in general?
"I am here, they are in Vladivostok. The threat of physical violence is useless." - Outstanding
Vitaliy Kolayev begs to differ
vladivostok is a long way from here
@@SkeletonWord just looked up that crazy shit. wow.
No progress without threats of physical violence!
@@simondaniel4028only got 8 years paroled after 3 and half. Crazy
Chris Hunt, Kenshi developer, a former night guard also. This trade is the hidden path to gamedev, no doubt.
Downtime+ability to pay one’s bills=creation
Night guarding is the most brain melting job you can have. It's literally just existing, alone, while appearing to pay attention.
The unbearable monotony is enough to fry the human soul, but perhaps the pressure could also spark the fuse of hyper-creation in a very specific breed.
@@ctrouble2309 you *have* to find some kind of hobby or your hobby becomes eating+sugary drinks, which is why so many guards are portly. did that shit for years, taught myself languages to pass the time.
@shain74 I actually took to enjoying night guarding... I prefered the quieter nights
ive worked in private security in california for 2half years. its a really nice job to catch up on some online education. most of the time it is just doing nothing but serious and dangerous stuff does happen in very rare occasions 😂
I remember spending a ton of time in FOnline2238. The constant suicide bombings of NCR are fond memories. I remember finally joining a crew large enough that we tried to take over one of the northern settlements. It may have been The Hub. Anyway, everyone is broken up across the entrances to the town, ready to gun down anyone who spawns in. Suddenly, five of the people in the vent are freaking out. A blue vault suit just ran by. Do we shoot him? He has a Russian name. A minute passes. Suddenly a trio of power armor thugs drop in, wasting everyone with their rocket launchers and plasma rifles. The crew scatters, trying to take potshots at the invaders, but one by one are blown to pieces. I die with only 1 minute left on the countdown. Good times.
FOnline 2238 was the shit, seriously leaves 76 in the dust in terms of what an online Fallout should be, and this coming from someone with around 1.2k hours in 76. TC Wars was about the most fun I've ever had with a multiplayer game.
Btw, that blue suit was likely a scout haha. Someone probably ran across town with that character, then switched to a PA bruiser when he finished.
Your story sounds just like my experience. Pickpocket griefers were so common in the ncr and you couldn't do anything because the npc soldiers would defend them if they were attacked. My group was going in to start a base only for us to have our resources pickpocketed from us. We were able to try it the second attempt but it took some time. I still remember my time with the kind strangers there. If you somehow find this doc west, thank you for the good memories.
@@pedrolobo48601.2k hours in 76? Why would you do that to yourself, are you a masochist?
Don't forget the eternal idling of Larry Rotgut in the NCR bazar.
Warlockracy is one of the few channels that covers the crazy world of the deep Russian internet. Much respect.
Who else does that?
I’m learning more and more about the other side of the world with each new episode, I was not expecting a demonstration on Anal injection of drugs in my Slavic fallout review video.
@@Argyle117i am russian, and i knew fuck all about literally any of this😂
Not only Russian. Whole slavic region is a dark place for western.
He's educating the golems
Cvet is my new favorite character in the Warlockracy extended universe. Him threatening Zenimax with a pocket bible is fucking gold, he even worked on my favorite Russian spyware piece of shit scam game I have sunk 2000 hours into and counting
Tarkov?
@@seanjenkins6947 yes
that’s wild
Его жизнь потрепала неслабо. Персонаж и комичный и трагичный одновременно.
@@hambubger8225was there any actual evidence of Tarkov being used for spyware? I couldn’t find much besides some concerned threads on reddit and such. Regardless, in this day and age complete online security is most likely wishful thinking with the ever evolving malware and spyware
The bits with Cvet had me rolling, he reminds me a bit of Terry Davis, with FBI agents replaced by zenimax lawyers. The fact that he has a wife and children was a giant plot twist.
Such a good video, thank you!
"i can't beat the sh1t out of them when they refuse to do the work"😂
Cvet's the man.
Such is what makes me really appreciate the translation. Cvet is a really eccentric coder.
R.I.P. Terry. They glow
@@pcraft8785Terry was right. Terry was 100% right.
Man, I love this dude. Helpers are useless unless I can threaten them with physical violence.
I love that it's his solution to everything. Zenimax sent a cease and desist letter? "I'll go to America and beat the shit out of them" lol reminds me of that South Park episode with Russel Crowe picking fights all over the world.
@@BL00DYME55 That was such a funny fucking skit
A certified Disco Elysium moment.
I kinda get that sentiment since in a lot of these types of projects "volunteers" or "helpers" are either well-meaning people that have zero skills to actually be helpful or weirdos that are just there to do their own thing without doing the nitty-gritty crap that needs doing to genuinely develop anything.
@@qwellen7521bro is literally a disco elysium main character with half light and shivers maxed out
"Yeah, ships. I don't get it."
Genius
I love this man, he somehow one ups himself with every sentence
What a ride. Never in my life have I sat down and thought "You know what, I want to play the classic fallouts with a bunch of strangers that will inevitably say that they have fornicated with my mom in 6 different foreign regional dialects and proceed to kill me until I quit playing."
Damn, me too.
Free2play games with a large Russian/Chinese player base get wild, just the other day I was told that I am a dog and my mother fornicate with animals, those exact words.. Not sure what translation the Chinese use or how much is lost in translation, but shit is hilarious. 😂
In FOnline, they don’t often joke about mom, this is not DotA. A FOnline classic is raping a corpse.
@INSANESUICIDE A chinese friend once told me that a proper insult covers at least 2-3 generations of your family. It's like the person your insulting is so dumb/useless/whatever that It's not just their fault but multiple generations of failing.
@@toastedt140 This is like the ultimate form of Xbox Live insults.
the guy is a living jagged alliance character you can recruit by telling him you're a priest and you love his engine
"he borrowed money from his fans for drugs" firstly, BASED, secondly, borrowed implies he gave it back which is cool
No issues with that, he contributed to GDP!!! Sick!!!
Not all heroes can afford their own drugs....blud removed the middle man and went straight to the honey pot.
Interesting video as always. Your videos have given me a PHD in Eastern bloc lore at this point.
i expect the thesis defence to see the use of a broken wodka bottle
I'll never forget the brief time my friend and I tried this (or maybe it was another similar project) in high school. We logged on and traveled for a bit before running into someone who asked if we knew the lord and savior Gachimuchi. My friend started to type back the lyrics to one of the deep dark fantasy videos. The guy then gave us shotguns and metal armor and then we died in the next area to a bunch of rad scorpions. That was a good time
@@dagothur6739 I was Danisty my friend was like Mel Cumington. No clue who the guy was
@@dagothur6739 lol that's awesome. Even if it wasn't you it's wild to think that's something people could just quote to each other lol
You can be sure he would've gunned you down if your friend didnt chime in :)
@@fruitpandaa irl speech check be like:
I remember playing too. Two moments came to mind. My first experience, and my last.
Some Vault Dweller in the first town convinced me to level up by punching a Brahmin in the ass.
It gored me instantly to the tune of 20 guys laughing their asses off. "Welcome to the Wasteland, bitch."
The last moment was me scavenging in the wild to get firewood for the camp, and I hear the spooling of machinery.
I am turned to giblets by a mini gun, a raider in some messed up power armor appears. "TODAY IS YOUR UNLUCKY DAY" and proceeds to spend 5 minutes RPing peeing on my corpse.
The game truly is an enigma.
“What are they going to do, bring me to The Hague” is such a funny line for this weirdo
“At least I’ll be morally satisfied” 😂😂😂
What a hero
When FO:OL was in the works, I remember seeing that art of the table with "THE MASTER LIVES" carved on it, and feeling very powerful anti-hype. It said to me "WE HAVE NO IDEAS"
The setting for Last Frontier, on the other hand, is intriguing and I hope something actually fleshed out comes out utilizing this Russia/Alaska landbridge idea.
I would hold judgement until the game is released (heh). Could either mean that he literally lives, or that his ideals lived (i.e. a splinter faction of mutants still dedicated to his cause).
@@NoobTamer i assumed it was the later as having the master come back just ruins what the vault dweller had to sacrifice to make him dead in the first place
Red Letter media voice: "No one´s realy gone"@@kobold7466
I know this is random and weirdly specific but the idea of a weird Russian-English hybrid language forming as a common language for different groups to communicate would be cool imo and something a setting like that could explore.
Was not expecting to see Talkernate History on this channel. You guys should cover Fallout in an episode.
I think you know this by now but Tim Cain has a youtube channel, it would be pretty cool to see you guys interacting/talking about what modding has done for Fallout.
Has he spoken about fo:on before?
@@Helperbot-2000 Not in details. He's mentioned it once in a charity stream. He is basically aware it existed, but he does not know much about it. Josh Sawyer has at least tried playing.
@@umartdagnir oh ok cool, thanks
I am one of the developers that worked on Desert Europe, it was a great experience. Many people were interested since it was so different yet familiar to what we had previously in FOnline. I'm always looking back fondly on that time and the people I've met and collaborated with.
Watching a video about the Russian side of Fallout is the 40k equivalent of looking into out the window of a ship during a Warp jump.
Stealing this
@@Warlockracy please do
My experience with Fonline was joining, realizing that you start with about 500 caps and that you can store money in the first town, re-making my character 10 times and hiding the caps in the same container and then after finally leaving the town with my money getting mugged by some player in power armour and losing everything.
10/10 would get shot again

I wish more people operated under the dogma of "at least I'll be morally satisfied"
Lotta people in prison do, lol.
I don’t, funnily enough. At least far from his version of moral satisfaction.
Plenty of terrorist groups seem to follow that dogma lol
But are they *Morally* satisfied or..
Often times they have Moral quandries, but they Justify it.@@planescaped
No because his derives an actual endpoint, Terrorist groups almost never have an endpoint, their purpose is to foment a rebellion where it can.@@Sleck06
Honestly, I love giving my money to criminals. Never met nicer folk with better deals.
I agree, I have been stabbed in the back less times by criminals, than I have by law abiding citizens.
Several days ago a man approached me, asking for 200 rubles (2$) in exchange of him shoplifting stuff for me.
Unfortunately, I had only 1400 rubles (14$) to my name and haf already shoplifted from the very shop he wanted to target and planned to drink away 1000 of 1400 rubles in the nearby bar

Cvet is a fascinating character. Wouldn't want to be a Zenimax big shot knowing that he's out there.
@@amadeusagripino6862 oh dont remind me of that, its pure pain ;,(
@@amadeusagripino6862what they do?
@@brandonmccann15 Prey 2, the true sequel to 2006 Prey, was almost done but Zenimax/Bethesda kept rejecting development milestones on "quality assurance" grounds and kept withholding funds for Human Head Studios, forcing them to take loans from Zenimax to keep functioning. Zenimax did this as an attempt to do a hostile takeover of Human Head, the same way they did with Dishonored's Arkane.
They also tried the same with Obsidian during New Vegas.
@@amadeusagripino6862seems bat is simply not enough.
@@amadeusagripino6862 It's kinda funny. The story of New Vegas, is the story of New Vegas. Sent out to die, and pissed off a lot of people when it didn't!
I remember trying to get into FO years ago. I wasted thousands of hours in F2 and to a lesser extent F1, so I was pretty enthusiastic about a shot at a multiplayer experience in Fallout world.
I spent some time looking at a sparse tutorial, but it had almost no info in English and there wasn't much in Polish as well. Then I spawned in the outskirts of NCR capital from F2. I walked around, talked to some NPC's and had to leave the town. I ran from some griefers only to get caught by the next ones and die. Rinse and repeat. Honestly, if I wanted to be shot by Russians I would just be born earlier. Not one player answered any queries or callouts and the city was sparse in player count anyway.
I gave up fairly quickly but my brother played on and off for a few years, but he was a kid speaking very moderate English, so he just joined some group that fought others in PvP and, as I assume, griefed others. Should ask him someday. I think someone actually did the bomb thing to him once.
Honestly, I think that most of the sandbox MMOs' population brought their own games to extinction themselves. If all your experience is getting owned in a skill-based game like CS: GO, then you could try to get better and at least land some shots. In RPG you just give up and play something else as the game is literary rigged from the start. Skill issue? Maybe.
FO seemed like a logical basis for a good light RP-based experience but the game did nothing to give newb a shot at trying it before getting curb-stomped. Unlike in forum-based RP there was still enough gameplay to avoid people trying to force everyone to live their shitty fanfiction. A bit of a shame really, but many good, paid projects, like Neocron, failed likewise, so I can't blame the guy. It's pretty impressive what he achieved anyway and I wish those still playing best.
Thanks for highlighting the Fallout fandom of Eastern Europe, Warlockracy.
I feel like it's the only fandom that fallout has.
@@isuckatusernames4297i think there is some people that really like fallout 4 and 76
@@KingLich451those people aren’t real humans
I vaguely remember playing it like back in 2010 or smth. It was toxic af, buggy, broken and unfair, but still fun and chaotic, hah
Shoveling brahmin dung to get early XP was mesmerizing.
This guy is like a character SsethTzeentach would make in an rpg, except he's a real person.
I can hear a 40% of original words of author and I adore your attempts to culturise all the swearing and slang :3
Warly, you are golden.
Yeah he seriously does a good job translating certain idioms and plays on words. "Intellectual, Shitellectual". Just fantastic.

What an absolute chad
"fallout this fallout that, btw I buy airpods from methadon junks" sophisticated short stories from the swamp of reality.
13:34 Królewska Federacja Wschodu.
Yes it does sound better. Mostly because "East" and "Rise" are the same word like "rising sun". It really makes it sound more optimistic or "New World Order" vibe.

This video was unexpectedly hilarious, a gem as always. While it is somewhat depressing to hear of lost potential, passion projects, and dreams that fell by the wayside and exist on some dusty part of the internet populated only by dead hyperlinks and poorly written comments, it was worth it to hear "Give your money to criminals" and "Six-dimensional Eurasian racism", as well as glean insights from what is clearly the world's most interesting game developer. I don't know how guys like CliffyB became rockstar game dev celebritys when Cvet was around...
Hilarious?? What part was hilarious? The svet-dude is an asshole and this is extremely depressing...
"SIX-DIMENSIONAL EURASIAN RACISIM" IS A LINE THAT'S GOING TO LIVE IN MY HEAD FOREVER.
New Fallout content from Noah and Warlockracy, Fallout nerds eating good tonight.

Also how'd the boat turn out?
More use in America currently than any other documented time period where Noah is concerned. MEH
@@Prof.PwnalotThe sheer pride in that level of arrogance dude, god damn
The saddest part is that if fo76 played more into being a true mmo and less being post apoc destiny 2 we could have gotten closer to what Interplays Fallout Online was in concept. A great example that was heavily neglected but still functioned well is Fallen Earth.
Svet is such an interesting character, he feels like someone you'd see a 20 hour documentary series on youtube about
Also I love your sort of "split narrative" style of videos, always was an interesting style
he at one point got extremely buff and had a yt video of himself called "DJ sexbeast" in which he DJ'd in some garden party topless, I hope its not lost to time because he took it off his yt chanell years back

I remember playing FOnline 2238 a bit. My biggest memory was stumbling upon some players fighting on the world map, the winners leaving, and me looting the losers' corpses for (relatively) high level equipment. Felt kinda cool, honestly.
On the topic of extremely unknown Fallout related games the western version of this would have to be a modification for a game called "space station 13" its called Fallout13. space station 13 is an RP game and so is Fallout13 but as a game its actually pretty decent and fun and is actually alive (ish)
Western? The best FO13 server was ruski as well
@@francesco3772 Hahaha thats true but... Its more western. I mean F13 is arguably the least Russian part of SS13. Atleast nowadays. Dont see any Russian servers.
The only fallout 13 servers Ive seen active on the hub are furry sex erp
Been loving me some SS13. Tried the FO server once, but only saw one other person who 'keeps to myself, mostly'. Might try it again sometime.
I remember playing one version of FOnline in 2012 or 13... Or 11? I don't remember the year, it was a weird time in my life. Anyway... It was a very fun experience. I joined a clan, and how communications worked, was that you had to have radios, like if you remember Fallout 2, you had to bring Vic a radio? That kind of military walkie-talkie. You set the radio to a frequency that was agreed upon by the clan. We had several frequencies, one for raiding, one for other discussions.. If you killed an enemy player and they failed to reset their radio, you could get their frequencies and spy on them. Fun times, much more fun than Fallout 76, or anything that Bethesda ever made concerning Fallout, really...
This video was a wild ride in seeing the development of a Fallout Online before the disaster that was Fallout 76 showcasing how some random security guard in Belarus would code an entire engine and bring the chaos of human interaction into the world of Fallout, massive respect to Cvet for not only defending modders against Zenimax, but also since a similar success story was Chris Hunt, another security guard who worked on Kenshi in his spare time, and also was not expecting Cvet to have a "demonstration" of how he takes "vitamins" via a butt chug. Another amazing video Warlock and I hope to see you cover that expansion to Fallout Sonora soon!
That thumbnail is going to age like a fine wine.
Why?
Why indeed
The wasteland has fallen.
Billions must die.
I watch everything Warlock puts out just so I can hear him say "A 2 Room Apartment in Babrujsk Belarus"
That response to the probably fake legal letter was fucking incredible, LMAO
I wish every modding/emulator/etc. creator responded to mega corps attempts to shut them down in a similar war, amazing.
Goddamn, the live footage balcony bit is so surreal and out of place it feels like you're baiting us with it, but it actually happened. Internet is so amazing
what an honest, hardworking, and wholesome man. Such colorful vocabulary as well
Holy shit, what a wild ride, i refuse to believe Cvet is a person, he is instead a character, he might even be the protagonist of this world's real life video game.
as weird as it is to say, 'petty tyrant' Anton Tsvetinsky fascinates me. The notion of playing at such Machiavellian power games over something comparatively minor as... programming an obscure MMO game.
He strikes me as the kind of guy that, had he an ounce of power, would make a really funny Tropico "dictator facts" loading screen snippet.
The "Underling" drawing at 24:10 is taken from a book called "Scary stories to tell in the dark" or possibly the 2nd book. It's a collection of spooky stories and fucking horrific drawings that haunted me as a child :)
$h!t you are right! I remember magazine/encyclopedia series about monsters, anomalies, murder mysteries called something like that when I was in the kindergarten.
Story of FO and Cvet leaves a warm, cosy feeling in my chest (like a lamp amplifier, as Russians would say). Ahh, the Slavic gamedev mod scene. I was a part of HOMM3 HOTA team at some point, and released an expansion from Majesty 2, called Cold Sunrise. Both teams were slavic. Both teams had a very distinct vibe. Both teams' story could easily be made in a Fallout-like RPG, the characters and setting would have been excellent. Thanks Warlockracy for this window into a time that no longer exists.
Cvet sounds like a real character. A cartoon character, but a character nonetheless.
Very interesting stuff. The Lowtax reference blindsided me.
remember when you stole patreon money for years?
Very short, albeit uneventful story. I believe this was the FOnline Reloaded server, but I recall meeting a random guy with my friends, his name was just Marc.
He was on his quest to find, if the RUclips comments allow it, "wenches of Latin American descent with rather large buttocks".
We had decided to take him with us on our journey, although it was short lived as he went into the wasteland after an encounter with pig rats. Not long after that we decided to make a cult aptly naming it "Cult of Marc", continuing his legacy.
honestly not much happened after that aside from us getting lit up because we only wore robes and one of us had a throwing build where they threw jackets and molotovs at people
His attempt to not laugh when he read "time to take out the trash" from patron
Ah I remember playing beta when it was just out. There was a hacker dude in an Enclave armor who killed everyone. We even tried to gang up on him wearing gauss rifles and combat armor but he had infinite HP
Every time a Warlockracy video is uploaded an angel gets its wings
a slavic angel of course.
I swear its like i step into a whole new world when I watch your videos.
I use the map maker for FO:O to make overview tabletop maps for TTRPGs, a lot easier than the FO:1-2 map tools.
Could you provide some examples? 😊
Cant believe you missed out the biggest active FOnline server Fallout Online 2 (Fonline2) as well as the biggest servers that ever existed before they died, reloaded and 2238
There was a bit about Reloaded, but I ended up removing it because I made fun of the main quest they had and the bit felt unnecessary mean.
@@shotgunner2039 Still important fonline history
Yeah he really dropped the ball here. Those servers had actual American and Brazilian player bases too with multiple factions at times
Cvet is truly the most game developer that ever developed game.
This is so fascinating, like a lot of your videos. That guy is such a character. I really enjoy these videos shedding light on parts of the internet (and world) that I have no clue about.
Why are slavs etc. so into Jagged Alliance and Fallout or similar games I wonder.
it seems slavs and south americans have a strange attraction to keeping ancient games alive and making mods for them
A lot of rather shit computers
because they are always the last to upgrade pc hardware..
@@fonkyman Part of it, but also the style of gameplay not just the graphics is important to analyse if you wish to understand fully.
@@InfraynorGB right my comment was half joke...
Im sure they have good reasons to like dark games over there :p
For a moment I expected the bit where you bring up World of Warships to seamlessly transition into a sponsored bit lmao. Thanks RUclips conditioning.
Svet looks like he's one grin away from a perfect troll face.
There is so much more to discover regarding cvet´s adventures and different fonline projects. Most of Cvet´s videos were removed, but I think someone in community have saved them, some pretty epic stuff. Maybe you could try to contact him directly and do interview? In this video comments I found so many old familiar names, so equally hello to everyone and see you in the wasteland if we ever meet again!
because fonline, fonline never changes
I can hear your smile in these videos.
That makes me kinda happy.
I remember being a naive teenager who was convinced by my friend to play FO online, I bought the hype he was pitching me. It was immediately crushed when I got in game and was killed by a Russian player with power armor and mini gun. I never turned back. Great video.
The art for Fallout Europe (or whatever its name is) on 14:06 looks a bit like a reference to the characters from the Ukrainian sketch comedy show "Каламбур" (Calambour) that was aired in Ukraine and Russia (don't know about other countries) in late 90s and early 00s.
Left one looks inspired by the tank commander from "Железный капут" (Iron Kaput) segment about German experimental supertank sent to Africa to conquer local tribes. The comedy is built upon the stupidity of the crew and being constantly defeated by a primitive tribe. While speech is in Russian, part of the jokes are understandable without translation due to their visual nature.
Right one looks a bit like a guy from "Деревня дураков" (Village of the Fools) segment about an ex-soldier still wearing uniform hat (like the one on image) and sporting ridiculous moustache (that got manifested as air tube on the art) constantly trying to get drunk with his friend Sailor and trying to avoid his wife who's against such plans. It has no words, so no translation needed.
You can find the videos by searching for original Russian names on RUclips. Since the show is old and not aired anymore, studio was kind enough to upload a lot of content.
Cvet is going to kick some bureaucratic ass!
I remember during closed beta, one tester leaked a password to dvach. Me with other anons were running around wreaking havoc before they shut down servers and banned all us. After that, one of anons wrote a PETITION to svet, calling him an asshole.
This video is such a rabbit hole journey, some of it is so ludicrous that I genuinely had to pause it and stop laughing. love this. keep up the good work.
FOnline 2238 was amazing in its prime, between '09-10. I played in a shared house with four other guys, all in our early 20s. I miss that game and think of those times often.
It was the best server in my opinion also. Much good times my faction even though lag made it difficult to compete at times
@@tzone962 I did play with my IRL housemate faction, intermittently, through to 2012. It felt like it just had a high point and never it regained it after '09-10 though. I knew min-maxers, RPers, PKs, Anti-PKs, players with different languages. The mortal terror of being robbed in an unsecured settlement. Tent r*ping. I remember the admins once got our whole faction to perform a kind of test to prove we weren't one guy using alt accounts lol- got us to run back and forth while asking one or other of us a question. Truly a weird memory I cherish
@@sevatarlives185 The diversity of player types and styles in those days was truly awesome! Ive heard of the admins doing tests like that! They were also notorious for spawning people bottomless containers and resource nodes in their friends bases. It's really a great hidden time in online gaming. I still have life long friends from that era.
I genuinely think this is the best review channel on youtube. Your dry humour and wit in writing are a great credit to your channel. It's a genuine shame you only have 100k subs, though the niche nature of the games you review unfortunately turns off some people. Your insights to Russian and Eastern European cultures add a great deal to the contextual explanations to your videos and greatly heighten the value of your videos to an unfortunately monolingual anglophone like me, too dumb to learn another language but still interested in other cultures and histories. I don't have any money to give you on patreon because I spend it on beer and cigarettes but I wish you all the best. Keep up the amazing work man. Love from Ireland
"What are they gonna do? Bring me to The Hague?"
This is one of those magical youtube videos where the premise is not the content. Like a documentary derailed by some crazy guy that happened to be tangential to the original concept.
damn, What Remains looked interesting. too bad that one never got far. this was a great video and i'm looking forward to more!
I'm the "dev" of this one, I lost all the files of it over the years but dearly miss working on it. Sadly I don't have the free time working on it any more. Creating maps etc. was such a calming and nice process.
@@Vulmen311 Hah, I'm even subscribed to your channel since back then. Mad respect for what you've made in any case. Just watching the screenshots and imagining what the game could have looked like was incredible.

Kind of just hit me when you brought up Lukachenko. Small world.
My name is Commander Lukashenko and this is my favorite video on the Citadel.
I remember Foline, it only held me and my friends attention for 10 minutes due to the lack of players and understanding of how to connect to different servers but it still and always will intrigue me
It's actually crazy to me that MDE gets mentioned as a style of humor. Never realised how big Sam's counter culture style humor was.
There WERE attempts to make the wiki, multiple times. The active devs usually never used em anyway, for being either low skill, using hugely altered engines so they cant use the shared one or language barriers.
Shame you dont mention 2238, first english server.
As for the TLA, during OBT2 there were already PK vs APK (Player killer vs Anti PK) factions.
Backdoor has much longer story but I get why you didn't bother covering it :D
Btw there was also another server which was going to be set in something like medieval china, but creator disappeared quickly, sadly.

Upd. You can dynamically zoom in/out in game
I will live by the words of Warlockracy, "Give money to criminals."
Everyone who pays taxes lives by these words.
@@ЭрикКартман-ч4ю declared criminals don't lie to you saying they're doing things for the good of people
@@amadeusagripino6862 best criminals don't get prosecuted or even caught.
I love the editing on this, cutting back and forth between unhinged Cvet interview and the Graveyard of Weird FOnline Fan Projects
say what you will but undeniably there is no words to describe how hard it is to not only follow through with the desire to make a mod but to MAKE ALL THIS and make it WORK and not want money for it is incredible.
I am not done watching this video though so i hope hes not a pedo or anything
Never saw that interview before, although I vaguely remember the guy called CBET, he was a local demigod who wiped the server from time to time.
Still surprised tho that a dude with a USSR flag and holy icon in the background had any business developing a FALLOUT GAME. 💀
I wholly believe that if Zenimax sent Cvet a cease and desist he'd personally march into Zenimax HQ and break the CEO's legs with a bottle of Vodka and then proceed to drink the entire thing on his way out.
Didn't expect a Lowtax name drop.
There was another one in one of the STALKER videos.
Yeah, Warlock knows his oldschool RUclips. Truly a man after my own heart. Or oldschool Internet rather, but I mostly knew Lowtax from Retsupurae rather than from Something Awful. Maybe that's just me.
Somehow, I was not expecting so many Lukashenko quotes, but in a weird way, it totally fits! Another great video man, you always find the most interesting projects to cover!
Это так не привычно слушать видос на американском английском, а в видео видеть один русский
Do you plan on making a Part 2? You mostly covered the dead projects but there are still a lot of active projects in the works, ex. Fonline2, Ashes of Phoenix, Reloaded.
Want to believe, but i guess that's partly my blame, i've wrote info about ANY server that i found (i'm an author of text on Neolurk)
I was there over 13 years ago.
Running out of the respawn room without getting shot by a hacked turret was a big deal.
Man, what a great throwback on this topic.
I use to play the hell out of Fonline: Reloaded back in the day and it was a weird combo of Euros and Americans.
The community was functionally divided upon ethnic lines, but it was one of the more successful servers back in the day. We use to average around 200-280 players roughly back in 2015-2017.
It's funny you mentioned the violence against new players, as we had that at one point. I think Bluedrake showcased the game on a livestream, and through that, we had a huge influx of "Blues" (freshspawns) join and pretty much any hostile faction started playing with them. Notoriously, The Khans (a ancient clan of gen x'ers from Fallout Tactics days) did a massive raid on the Hub, several times, and killed pretty much anyone. It was pure pandemonium. I'd ramble on but I'll spare the history lecture. If you ever wondered where TKs-Mantis comes from, it's from there. "TKs", stands for "The Khans". They were a notorious raider faction on there, consisting of the best PVP sweats that could exist. Your day was usually over; if you found them. They were the sort of dudes to grab your stuff and break it to bits in front of your dead body, just to mock you.
Either case, moving on, Fonline: Reloaded died around (I think) Season 3 or Season 4. Where they went a more cozy PVE direction, where you wouldn't lose gear anymore upon dead and many other changes. It was very fun while it lasted, and prolly one of the best experiences I had with a online Fallout.
Man the khans were huge fucking losers. Still kills me to this day that a bunch of these nutcases actually wear their shitty clan tag like a badge of honor and not something to cringe about
I was in the khans we were aggressive nowhere near the best pvpers. We were just assholes mainly
Wow! I'm the guy from the forum post about TNF. What a feeling to see my own shit in this video
6:38 That's literally the marine armor from Fallout 4.
Seems like an intense crowd! I love the art direction on Desert Europe, and I like the frequent attempts at integrating material from Van Buren and newer titles.
Cvet sure seems like a Fallout character.
Lmao I now love the man who programmed this. What a damn hero of gaming.
I made the shit shovel sprite and I will always love it. :3
What a time to be alive it was. As the first Open Beta Test was announced, we nearly lost our minds. It was the best thing ever. Yeah, all the later stuff was cool, but that first raw taste of FOnline from the teat... Thank you, Cvet. And all the rest; Frenchies, Bros, Polaks and Russians, Ghosthack, SurfSolar, Baffo and many many more...
Surf here! Damn your comment brought a huge nostalgic smile to my face. Hope you are doing well!
@@Vulmen311Hell yeah brother! Glad to see you about and kickin :) I can't seem to figure out what is this band you're in, can I follow it somewhere or what? :D
Yo, if Godlike & Ahbobsaget are around, you two Rot gut swindlers need to say something. :D
@@Vulmen311 Surf! Are you still making music? Loved the Ancient Horse Full Of Glue!
@@isekaiexpress9450 hey, yeah, I do! I'm in two bands now - I'll upload everything to my channel as soon as recordings are finished :)
the one time i played fallout online i joined in, some guy taught me how to mine and make caps (what a god i still think of him to this day) and when he got off i decided to go to the bos bunker where i was trapped in the elevator forever and literally could not do anything else no matter how many times i disconnected and reconnected over a few days, great experience.
Also, seeing you cover fonline has me interested in asking if you've ever seen or played F13, a fallout conversion branch for space station 13? I don't expect you to know or care about it because its a pretty niche community and the game is almost completely seperated from any fallout game both mechanically and sometimes lorewise. It'd be interesting seeing a video about that, especially from someone who could decipher the russian servers that hosted it and stalker 13.
I cannot believe you have done this, I wanted this exact video a couple months ago and here it is. Madman
how can a man be so passionless but work so long on the same project.
This Cvet guy is amazing. I'm impressed by his bravado and his unvarnished sincerity, and I hope to emulate him.
