I reset on of my alts to try the new player experience. None of the issues raised bellow are pressing, but just a little feedback.:
Disable F/A off completely. Currently it can still be activated but only effects rotation. (New players should not be messing with F/A off in the training tutorial, but they may still hit the keybind)
Disable Sub-system targeting. (Currently if you target a subsystem the tutorial Voice Over thinks you are not targeting the actual target. It also might be sort of confusing for new players.)
There is a difference between re activating SC assist in the left panel, and just needing to point your ship at the target. The tutorial V/O does not seem to make this distinction, and keeps referring me to the left panel.
It is possible to drop on npc wakes before reaching the station. This seems can drop the player outside of the station instance (the station keeps moving away from the player in real space). Ideally NPCs would not be dropping in the tutorial. If the player drops halfway near the station it should be dropped into the station instance (of frame of reference) such that they station is not moving away from the player (this could confuse a new player into panicking that they are moving backwards etc.)
It might be good to make it clear that SC assist does not steer around planets. The way it is now makes is sort of sound like it is a feature of the SC assist.
No LHS 3347 option was given even for preexisting accounts after the tutorial/cmdr setup was finished. (Only the two matet options were present) I was under the impression this was being kept. Only giving fresh (zero play hours on the account, and not just wiped saves) new account a single option would be less confusing. (depending only on if they have horizons or not)
If not giving fresh account only the one option it would be better to explain what the difference between the two options are. (one has the srv to drive around on planets and the other has cargo racks in place of the srv. I have seen on other sites that some new players get really confused by this choice.)
Having the V/O cover the way the permit region for new players works would also be nice. New players may not be great at remembering how to get at the message text as is.
