new players
Lanliss:
If only we had something, other than victory, to bait the trap with. Most seem to care less, right now anyway, about victory than whether or not they do thing their way.
Kamoba:
The biggest issue is less about how well new players learn or how fast, but how vocal the anti-new players are, which is why in many cases forums should be taken with a pinch of salt.
As for helping players get over the learning curve, there are plans being made by CA's to arrange a regular tournament for novices (or just newer olayers) with the main focus in teaching them gameplay basics, once the ball gets rolling, it should help a lot. :)
But I will say, lately all the newer players I have met have been top notch people all eager to learn, one ally pilot apologising for his poor skills... Shortly before his ship won a 1v1 engagement against a higher level ship!
Schwalbe:
I would rather rethink the tutorial. Recently some my friends from unversity bought the game and started playing (they are members of my clan, created for them). I teach them and what I need to say - the tutorial is almost always looked over even if I ask them to be careful. Even if they are - it foesn't cover anything important...
Lanliss:
So Kamoba. Would this tourney be all novice, or would there be something like one CA per ship? Just curious because having an experienced player on a ship would help with learning quite a lot. But not more than one, as that would probably shift the focus off learning and more towards obeying the vets. Another thing would be to make sure you do not have CA pilots, as the novices need to learn both piloting and communicating with their fellow captain. This is all moot if you plan on only novices playing, but I thought I would offer my opinion. In the past I have found it is safer to assume someone did not think of something than to assume they did and be wrong.
Kamoba:
One CA per ship (not necessarily pilot because people want to learn how to pilot too, but most likely pilot :) )
If needed have other CA's about too if we get enough people available at the same time.
I'm actually about to update the plan with an idea on the "tournaments" :)
Oh and yes likely novice only due to non-novice having no access to novice games :)
