 After the second OBT, The [[Rotators]] (at that point: [[lisac2k]], [[scypior]] and [[Ghosthack]]) created a brand new game; they had to chose a name, to create a website - at first, [http://fonline2238.blogspot.com/ a blog] - and of course to bring new contents and to fight the new bugs brought with this new content!  There was also a merge of the Fallout 1 and 2 locations into a bigger worldmap of whole [[California]] and a consolidation of location maps. For example, the different [[Vault City]] maps became a larger one, for both technical and gameplay reasons. A major part of the developers work in the first time was to translate the game interface from Russian to English. During OBT 2 (from which the mod was based on), the only non-Russian texts were those from the Master.dat file from the players, like the name of the different attack modes and the interface (Skills index, character sheet, etc.). Bringing the game into English was a very important and long step.

 Developers implemented a lot of new features; the first huge new feature was the introduction of faction [[bases]]. Brand new dialogues, characters and quests were also released. It is also during CBT 3 that [[town control]], [[crafting]] and [[factions]] systems were implemented, as well as the Fallout 1 towns (southern part of the map).

-During [[OBT 2]], three servers were available for players, all of the three had the same content, commonly known as ''vanilla FOnline'', which would later become [[FOnline: The Life After]]. At the end of the beta test (December 2008), the [[Rotators]] was formed and they began creating their own mod with Cvet's help, called ''factions mod''. Among the players that decided to join the CBT when OBT 2 ended, most of the Russian testers went on the mostly Russian server ''vanilla'', and most of the English-speaking testers went on to test factions mod - which would later become [[FOnline: 2238]].
