Q&A / Any advice for an experienced newbie?
« on: January 13, 2015, 02:44:30 am »
I played Guns of Icarus consistently until I got to level 9, and then I stopped playing for almost a year. I've basically lost all knowledge of basic strategy (what little I knew) and even how to play. Today, a couple of friends who had never played before wanted to start. I figured I'd jump back in so we could play a game together. Except, being level 9, I can't play any novice games (even with my other characters who are both level 1).
I thought I'd just create a new account and start over, but I can't because the accounts are tied to Steam. To get a new GoI account, I'd have to get a new Steam account. So we played a non-novice game, and it was awful. I felt horrible for the other ship on our team who basically had to do everything alone. And there's no way for us to improve by playing together since everyone else is so much better than we are.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what we can do or focus on to improve and have fun without screwing it up for other players?
