Your Community
Commander Cabbage:
Can someone kindly explain to me why some of your community treat new players so poorly?
After doing tutorials, and knowing I can master this through matches, within 10 minutes the crew of my ship lash out at me and my poor skills and then all disconnect out of rage.
I was very excited to start playing this after seeing the trailer and the Steam sale, but now all I want is a refund, but I doubt that is an option from an instance like this.
Captain Smollett:
Well hopefully I can console you by letting you know that you weren't really playing with our community.
Most new players wind up playing together in new player matches and unfortunately a lot of new players joining this month are doing so with a lower than average maturity level. These new players have started a bit of a rage quitting problem within our game.
That being said I encourage you to stick with it. Most veteran players are more than happy to help you learn the game and will not rage quit on you (I can't remember ever rage quitting a match).
Click on your social tab and find a CA (community ambassador) that's in game. They're an excellent resource to ask questions about the game and it's mechanics and can perhaps steer you towards a better behaved group of people.
Feel free to find me online; I may raise my voice in heated combat, but I'll teach you a high level of play, and will never abandon you in a match.
Nidh:
I would not suggest playing with the newer/beginner playerbase honestly. I would join a clan (as long as you are willing to learn) and be trained by them, just explain your situation and listen to their advice. Most of the veterans of this game are all very kind and willing to teach.
Duzzyy:
I'm afraid you'll find that with any game no a days.
I was lucky enough to but the games with lots of friend so I didn't have this problem, but I have had to yell at a few new people for not doing the job of the class they picked.
My only advice is to make sure you do your best. But the way my friends yell at me for not fixing things when I'm busy and the way I get yelled at in other games tells me it will always happen.
It sort of adds to the feel of the fast paced nature of a airship
Mill Wilkinson:
The feel should be a 1800 gentleman-like. Polite speeches, phrases like "Mill, would you pop that dastard's balloon?", "Mr. Wilkinson, your duties shall revolve around the maintaining of the hull, thus our lives." Etcetera.
Ragequitting is an issue, but I do hope good people will stick around and find themselves people to fly with. One good indicator of a not-quitting player is a known clan-tag. Even while not failproof, I've noticed that I can have certain trust in people who have a tag I recognize.
Also, hopping in on the clan-wagon might prove worthwhile. All it takes is either joining or creating a clan and then moderating your playerbase a bit. My own gaming experience was greatly enhanced by joining the MM, for example.
