Be nice to the noobs

[Berty Dastard]

If you know how to play this game then why not share it. If someone posts up whinging, rage quiting, whatever... it's because they are frustrated. It may be that they are used to playing a game where all you need is to click on a menu to get the magic hair grip.

Giving them loads of abuse doesn't help one bit. Most of them may do what they are saying and go. But it may be that if they say what is bothering them you can tell them how to get past it. And then we will have more chums to play with. It may be that they will find that roaming a realistic galaxy is fun and educational

If you have been playing beta you need to reset your head to the fact that a lot of users (be interesting to know how many occasionally) do not know about every little trick

I am happy to give advice but no matter how frustrated someone is I am not going to help them if all they give is abuse.

I've said 'Peaceful greetings commander' to numerous commanders since launch, have yet to get a response from anyone.

Same here , maybe the cant find the comunication console.

 

[Globscho]

Newbie here.
Someone asked me something while I was trying to work out how to dock

And I didn't aswered because I have no Idea how.
It seams like there is no local chat and I don't know how to convo someone

I'm sorry if someone out there is thinking I'm a rude person

 

[Meraco]

I believe the default chat button is "enter" or at least.. it used to be.. But you can set it in the options to whatever you like..

As for advice.. I am usually good at communicating assistance. However; I have a hard time when someone sais..

"How do make lauch for dock'

It's the giggling you see.. I can't type during...

well i think actually that is whats happening here? i yet have to see rude answers to ANY newbie asking for help. Harsh answers go out for "not worth the money" "cant do x after 5 minutes of playing, that sucks" threads though (and even there, there are LOTS of helpful postings and people)... and rightfully imho ^^

I decided to attack a bounty hunter nooblet at a nav beacon. The result is pretty obvious.




He won.

 

[Sete]

I just started the game played 5 hours, crashed against something on space the first 5 minutes and died form the lack of oxygen. 10/10 would do again.
After the rough start, managed to explore a few systems and sell some illegal good and do some bounty hunting. already made 20k. Which is awesome.
Tomorrow I start my journey to Empire space. Fed is nice and all, but i serve the God Emperor of Mankind.

Problem i've found is you cannot reply to the Message unless you have targeted and scanned for their name other wise its just "Sidewinder" etc..

LOL ... considering the average age of the backers was 30-50 and the game is now open to the general public I expect all the whooping will come from the 12 year olds who were born with a joystick in their hand and casually wipe the floor with us old timers

Uh yeah, you may want to think again. I've been playing simulators for almost 35+ years. I have a few tricks up my sleave. However, I won't fire unless fired opon. I'd rather be helpful then be a dic.

I've just manged to get to Sol, thinking it would be full of humans and have yet to see one. Where is everyone?

Be nice to the noobs

Actually Imperial studies have shown that noobs learn much faster under heavy and sustain laser attacks.

Im happy for you dude! Check out rare commodities they can give you a good return if you're willing to travel long runs. 140yl aT least. But every tons will give you around 15k of profit.

I've said 'Peaceful greetings commander' to numerous commanders since launch, have yet to get a response from anyone.

On the flip side to that I've chatted with a few new players in space, helped them out with nailing a big ship (got it down to 4% and let them finish it off) ... so your mileage may vary!

 

[nosscar]

coms is not easy just now, as already said, you get a message, then have to find them to target them, either in contacts or in space, (Unless there on your friends list.).
What is needed is a simple reply button, or when you press coms to reply, defaults to replying to last message first.

 

[FDB]

Yeah I'm a "Noob"

So see ya later agitator....

The initial post may be abusive about the game, but hey you are not the game. It's a better 'game' to turn them around

I'm betting a lot of beta backers never used comms in game and don't know how to. Or perhaps they are busy if you message them

 

[GrumpyCat]

Noob chiming in.

Literally loading up the game for the second time right now, first time I managed to dock once.

I expect my space debris to litter up the area soon.
