Topic: youtube tutorials
Easy solution to a lot of the new player issues, relief from explaining the same mechanics over and over.
Someone make a new trial account who knows what they are doing, do a youtube video and narration.
Cover the basics both combat and indy, just explain step by step what your doing and why. Also a "before you start" with the basics showcasing each faction and the basics ect. explain things about how the bots fight, their role, what to expect in the first month and what to expect after 6 months ect. Navigation of the client and how missions relations and the world works via world map teleports alpha 1&2 betas and gammas.
Then stick the link to the tube on help chat, or make it accessible in game.
Even if you guys redo the new player experience, something as simple as a youtube walkthrough makes a world of difference.
In all honesty, the tutorials are lame. Forces people who know what they want to mine dirt ect. and do a terrible job of explaining stuff. this could easily replace and just start players off knowing their goal is to grind mission rep until they figure out a corp to join and get real goals.
Also..sorry for posting in anni's personal complaint forum.
