Important information the game fails to explain.
Lanliss:
As, that was auto correct. People responded before I could edit it, since I did not notice it when I first posted it.
Do not us Lochnager* on flamer
Abuse the hell* out of mino before it gets nerfed.

Lanliss:
That is amazing, thank you. We need more info pics like this. Maybe that would help new players learn these things.
Sarabelle Marlowe:
*sigh* It seems the exact same problem, only worded differently.
What is boils down to is that people don't want to wait until new players get good. So many threads and so many discussions are about the new players and what to do with them.
*Stands on Soapbox*
Guys, we were all the newbie at some point. We all didn't start the game knowing the best path for chem spray cycles were, or what ammo is the best for which gun with what build. Heck even now I argue with people about ammo types because some are honestly up to preference. And that's something you can't learn except through experience.
I agree the tutorials could use a bit of spit and polish. I agree fully that there is more information that can be used in them.
However...
I will state firmly that even if you had all the information, knew what did what, there are things you can not learn until you practice them. When I first started this game, I read forums. I went through threads, I watch pro play before I even played one game so I could get a leg up. And it was not enough for my first few games. Because even though I knew more then most my level, I needed to actually put the information I had to use to learn it right. I got good because I met players that were willing to teach me, and stayed because I made friends with them.
Gun arming times with different ammo, cool down rates with different tools with different parts, the turning and velocity for each ship....only by playing the game can you get the feel of it. No tutorial can give you all the information in one go and expect it to stick doing it once. You have to learn by doing and practicing it. And with the player pool as small as it is, it's something that people need to understand and work with.
If the new player truly wants to learn, and you as a veteran do not teach them, it is your failing, not theirs.
