This one has finally started! It's not a new FO server, it's a completely new single-player game based on Fallout 2 1.02d (You can probably find out more info on the site itself).
Here's a small video:

Thanks for the heads up, if its as good as Fallout of Nevada then best present ever.

You know all the necessary words anyway. (cyka, blyat and such. We obv. only talk via those two words)
If there will be any questions regarding skills or perks (or certain quests) just post a screenshot here. I'm going to start a playthrough myself and see what's what.

It's not.

I don't get why these project are made in local dialect instead of international language...
The latter can be translated again in any language while the former is only understood by a few millions folks.

Because it's made by people who don't know international language? Eh?.. And somebody was working on a translation, idk if that's finished or not

Pros: 1. A LOT of new critter animations, some of them inspired by Fallot3/NV critters. Actually ALL critters are new.
2. A LOT of new scenery art, and much was inspired by F3/NV again.
3. Cool and stylish inventory pics.
4. Generally awesome game if you manage to go past boring starting location that tells you some game lore and stuff.
5. Cool quests and other event scripting.
Cons: 1. All new character animations are male only. You can't play as female.
2. Considering how much new artwork was done, it is shame that game itself is very short and locations is too small.
3. You can play after a final battle, but there is nothing to do, and there is only one caravan driver. And there is no encounter variety.
4. It's small. Yes, again. Too small.
5. Devs should have used fOnline engine, it's not open source, but still there is much more chances to negotiate with Cvet, than with Bethesda about commercial release. Yeah, i know, do not want.
I guess in case AoP team want some cool and fresh art, they should contact Olympus devs, and ask about using their stuff. Because it's cool.

Is there an ongoing translation into english ?

Unfortunately Olympus 2207 forum is silent now, and it's english section is even less alive.
Well, i can start translation if someone else interested to help with this, because it may require a week of copy/paste work, and my english is not good enough for a quality translation.
And it seems that Olympus developers allow usage of their content if game and their site is mentioned. Good news for me!
