New year, new guide? Life is good.

Hopefully this what-ever-it's-about guide will improve the community.

Speculation time: Is this an unofficial tutorial for the basics?

How smart you are. Yes, yes it is. The new training is so bad that I actually feel a need to gather the basic information needed to play the game into a handy guide to point newbies at. sweatdrop

Back to work!

I still have a bit of work to do, but I think this is good enough to be usable. I'ma go back to working on it now, but totally legit bump so that anyone who might benifit from this can see it.

Unfortunately, the majority of new players don't look on these forums...much less read the Stickies and guides.

I'm aware. And yet, I'm gonna try anyways for the few that do. If nothing else, maybe the Developers will see it and take away some ideas about what new players should see in the ingame intro. With luck, they'll even be able to convince the management. x..x

[mishyrawr]

Maybe. >.< The reason why mine failed was because it was never moved. Oh well. XP The devs should redo the beginning since that's what they last tinkered with. I miss Frank.

Sexy!

I'll be referring people here when I don't feel like answering their questions that make my head hurt because the tutorial doesn't cover them. smile

EDIT: Oh and I see that you don't have anything in there about hot keys yet (not sure if you were planning to add something about them). Or maybe you do and I just missed it when I was skimming, anyways, that'd be cool to add, though I guess it could confuse some people confused

@Saburoo: He does mention it a bit. XD
@Nespin: Q does target too. I use it actually. smile Also, I think you should mention the Salvaging option since it would be useful as a heads up.

I already like this~ :3

not bad, I did not know about the "stalk mode"
hehe, live and learn..

Awesome work. >w<
Hopefully some of the new players will find their way in here. It's really stupid what they've done to the beginning, but it's nice to see someone's thinking ahead and making a guide to compensate. :3

@Saburoo: I mention some hot keys in the appropriate sections (Example - 1-> 8 to trigger rings in the ring use area), but if there's any particular ones you want added, I can do it?

@Mishyx93: I do mention salvaging, but as part of upgrading. Think it needs it's own section?

If anyone has any suggestions on more things to go in here, feel free to mention them. It's usable, but it's not done. I'm about to go and do the last of the screen shots needed for now, then on to writing useful tips, links, and the plot sections.

@RADI0 Mouse AND Fr33dom4ever: Thank you.

@Lycan: Someone learned something. I feel useful. ^_^

Yes! You could make it big too. Since you only mention it briefly, it would probably be more helpful to give tips on how to swap and salvage properly. Like swap 2 rings and then salvage a duplicate.
