this is what happens when dev team starts work on an mmo, than stop before really doing ANYTHING, and then decides its done.

this game has nothing in it. NOTHING. all it is, is your character and an empty environment. the missions are nothing but a time limit. armor is useless because it is rediculously expensive in comparison to how is easy it is to lose, in fact its so easy to lose its a better idea to not even buy armor in the first place.


i dont know what else i can say, !?!

this is honestly the worst mmo ever. waste your time with it if you want to, but remember you have been warned.

Its not as bad as you make out, certainly not the worst MMO of all time.  The worst kind of MMO is one that just recycles an old idea and does it terribly.

FoM actually attempted to do something different and it started off very well.  Unfortunately it lost direction about a year into open beta and the devs started ignoring the beta testers and doing their own, seemingly random things to the game, such as adding automated turrets that insta killed anyone who fired a gun and minimaps that showed everyone on the level making stealth and hiding a thing of the past.

It could have been great, but alas, its now released and from what i hear the world is pretty empty.  Either DPS (the developers) act quickly and support this game via ingame adverts or it will just fail.  Surely even the diehard supporters who subscribed on release day can only take paying $10 a month to live in an empty world of guarding empty corridors for a RL 30 minutes for so long.  This game needs *people* in it, and lots of them to have anykind of worthwhile community and interaction.

To conclude, a fresh, promising idea for an MMO, ruined by bad development practices (namely, ignoring the beta testers).

What the guy says is BS, and no THEY ARE NOT DONE, or explain me why they release a patch everyday since release, fixing / implenting stuff.

They aren't even done with this, and they know it. Come back in 2 months and then try say again

being hopeful for a game to get better is all well and good, but ive played and done beta on a bunch of mmos. out of all those mmos hardly any of them changed even a little bit after release. yes they fixed little bugs from time to time, but when it cam to adding game content and just plain imporving the game, the process was so slow it wasnt even worth waiting for. come back in a year, if this game is still around, i can garauntee the game will have hardly changed, maybe they might add little things, but you can hope and think this game will get better all you want. if the devs dont care, they dont care, thats not gonna change.

This is a very open ended game, so if you're pretty narrow minded and want your path laid out before you, this game pretty much offers nothing for you.

You've got to explore, engage in conversations with other people in your faction, lots of socialization. Learn the rules of the faction and so on.

I believe this is one of the best MMO's I've tried so far (swg pre-cu was the other one).
But ye, people has different tastes, we just have to respect it.

I have to agree this is possibly the worst MMO online at the present time. They got me for a month subscription and thank god only that. If I had paid $50 USD for the client I would be pretty ticked off at myself for throwing money out the window..

Like all the other reviews for this game I agree that the game lacks content and is basically a scifi gang war  FPS. There is no exploration as the maps are small and from what I had seen (5 days of playing) are all inside. Missions are boring and lack any kind of content and takes a long long time to make any $$ unless you are on the same time some beta testers vets are on and the will make missions for you. Conbat stinks and can be summed up by saying its like playing unreal. 

In ending, after 5 days i felt like i was playing a scifi Sims Online game but with a FPS twist to it , save your $12 USD and try something else, the game is just awful...

Don't be so hasty judging this game. Give it a few hours and try getting to know how it is.

Players make up the most content in FoM.

I call it one of the best MMO of all times together with SWG-pre cu (Have played WoW,EQ2,CoV,SWG)

Very open ended game and I like it for that.
