I am Norim and I am new to the game and this community. I figured I should read up on how to play before I jumped into matches and stuff first. Plus I heard the community was the best.

So I am completely new to this game I bought it a while ago but I want to put some serious time learning it so this weekend I actually ran it and was delighted to see there were tutorials that either I missed or wasn't there the last time I tried to play (I didn't even make it past the main screen sadly) so I did all of them except the Advanced Pilot one so far. So here are my thoughts for what they are worth from someone who has no idea what is going on....
Guns of Icarus Online Player Tutorial Survey:
What level are you? (Gunner/Engineer/Pilot) 0/0/0
How many matches have you played? 0
Have you played the current tutorials already? All but the Pilot Advanced (Which I will do tonight)
If you have not, please play them. If you have already and have time, please play them again to refresh your memory. It took me about 15 minutes to play through all of them.
Were any of the tutorials too long? Please specify. I didn't find them long at time I actually found them going too fast
What did you like most about the tutorials? It gives me a quasi-sandbox to screw up in and to be able to take time and learn things
What did you find confusing about the tutorials? The gunnery one goes through a lot of guns in the advanced tutorial and almost too quickly I could barely keep all the differences straight before I went to the next one. Also it seems like it hints to the fact to can start with different items (I guess as an engineer) and you need to pick them but that is never actually made clear at any time
What was your biggest misconception about how the game works when you first started playing? I really didn't have any except how the roles were filled but I watched a youtube video of Dodger playing so I knew roughly how it worked
What was your biggest misconception about how the game works after you finished the tutorials? Gunners are more complicated then I would have thought...
Are there any important concepts that new players should know, but the Tutorials do not mention? I am not sure but I would say communication is vital in this game I would imagines so maybe some basic notes on that but I haven't played yet so it may be intuitive
Have you read the in-game manual? There is a manual? I need to explore more
Did you know that the in-game manual is expanded as you unlock new Achievements? Not a clue
Please leave any other comments or suggestions regarding the Tutorials, educating new players, or the first time player experience. Its nice to have a practice session of sorts without having any external pressures of having to win. I haven't explored too much yet but I assume there isn't like a free practice mode where you can just run around a ship like in the training but without getting booted out in the end when you are done so I can keep practicing shooting at moving drones and what not. Maybe it exists but I have no idea. I hope to explore in earnest tonight so more so I will update this as appropiate.
