How to "Speedily" YM in the Post-Elite Generation
A moderately-lengthy, appropriately objective piece for those beginning DMS or farming YM.
A moderately-lengthy, appropriately objective piece for those beginning DMS or farming YM.
- Purpose:
The "elite" generation of players who first entered DMS, explored previously uncharted territories, and developed from scratch many techniques that worked for them to clear rooms have largely left zOMG! or play almost exclusively with their friends and old crewmates. Although they passed down their gameplay tricks and methods, newer players have discovered and augmented upon their discoveries. This guide was written to address the discrepancy between older and newer beliefs as well as the confusion as they clash in crews. It is meant to facilitate and streamline your DMS experience, minimize upset within crews, and generally help you achieve your zOMG! goals just a little bit faster.
As for the blunt wording:
As a team player, you’re expected to pull your own weight. Since it’s nearly impossible to YM without a crew, it is your responsibility to learn the basics of DMS and zOMG! instead of imposing on others. My goal in writing this article is honestly to help you improve your gameplay or at least have you leave just a bit more informed. If I offend you with my thread, I sincerely apologize, but better offended here on the forums than annoy everyone else in-game, yes?
