 Posted: Tue Mar 14, 2006 12:05 am Post subject: Quick start Fleet Guides |
|
|
Hello Guys,
Today I was thinking of ways to make the game easier for noobs to play, and, i came up with the idea to make a Quick start Fleet Guide. This Quick start fleet Guide would show noobs how to use different fleeets effectively and how to counter other fleets. Like swank and anti-swank... things like that.
I not sure if it would work but it would allow noobs to have someway to fight back against fleets...
What do you guys think?

There was a forum thread that outlined this concept somewhere in the archives but it was in the forums and not the game menu.
There were changes also made to the freshly spawned to allow pre-made fleet of choice.
Both these things were welcome additions but met with limited success. The first one tends to get lost in the mass of posts and the second is only good for a couple of battles if you are lucky.
I somehow think the battle simulator would address this but that is another topic.

Ditto....I fully agree. It certainly was not dummies that conceived this game |

I could do a quickstart guide in my spare-time maybe some Flash, PHP ?
or DavAllan could do his work in an EXE.

i voted yes for sure.
but it needs to be dynamic enough to deal with ship balance adjustments.
the battle simulator is soon ready |

yay battle simulator ready soon cant wait to lay my hands on it 
im not sure what to think of this idea though it sounds good but there used to be a bunch of old guys we used to call vets in irc allways argueing about the different fleet situations they dotn seem to come by that much anymore but its allways good to argue out what we think it does then test it so come on noobs meet peeps in the irc

a flash demo would be great. an exe is not good, cause it could include viruses, and not all computers can execute windows-exe files |
