Newcomer / Intro Total Noobs - Free Tutorials (because how would you pay me anyway?!)

Hello,

I've been seeing a lot of reviews posted from new Steam users stating that they find the game too obtuse. I disagree...totally! And they generally have less than 2 hours play time xD !!! But I guess people who backed Elite or bought it directly might be more into it than someone who stumbled over it on Steam.

Nonetheless - while I don't think it's hard to get up to a good playing standard in a few hours just through flapping about and crashing a bit, I would be delighted to meet up with a few absolute beginners to go through some of the basics and get them kicked off. It would be more interactive than YouTube vids, and doing it in game might help with immersion and role-play.

So if you'd like to enroll in Cmdr Cmdr.'s flight, trading, and other things academy (TM, obviously), let me know. We can chat on Skype/Steam while playing somewhere fairly safe, and get you your wings.

The learning curve in ED is quite steep. Lots of things to get to grips with before one start to get a rough idea on how to make it in a very hostile galaxy - assuming one play in open. And unlike most games, very little holding of hands along the way. More like old-school swimming lessons. A little observation on how the others stay afloat and get about, and then push the newbie into the deep end of the pool. :)

+1 Rep to Cmdr Cmdr. Carter - Thx for offering to help new players. Steamers will undoubtedly benefit if they:

1) Give ED a chance
2) Take it slow
3) Reach out for help on the forums
4) Read this *stellar* post: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=118364
