    The very first thing i saw from the game was the main video at kag webpage. It appeared to be an amazing game, and so it was. It still makes me feel as if I was a kid, as playing snes and gameboy, the video i mean.

    (Sorry a bit off topic but:)
    I hadn't seen that video from TotalBiscuit, and in it he keeps on saying 'the aim of this game is to steal gold from your enemies'.
    Is there any server based on this mode? Has it ever been such a game mode?

    It was, Gold rush.
    First time I saw KAG was when I was searching for games similar to Terraria, KAG popped up first from the list. Then I decided to play it.
    First day was quite nice since I automatically played archer and was killing people easily, not minding other people, I totally despise those maps with only stone and gold in the old days. I did miss the huge mountain maps. Everything was new, But I quickly understand everything as soon as I saw people play each class.

    If I had the time to play KAG more then the 2 or 3 hours or so I get to a week then I'd love to learn how to make a decent tutorial, I think if the tutorial could be improved we'd see alot more people sticking around and a much better quality of new player overall. Obviously alot of people won't bother and etc etc, but I'm sure it'll be worth it for the people that want to learn to play a game a little before jumping into multiplayer. If all the stuff in Terry's guide was in there that'd be a start, some building tips and examples even more awesome, shops and all that kinda crap sweet.

    It'd be a good place to advertise premium features too, if you had the tutorial split into different areas; general movement, knight, builder, archer tutorials, and then shops and equipment then you could showcase premium stuff and get some interest in it very quickly. If there were kegs, ballistas, fire arrows etc in the tutorial, and you label them as premium features, then after a few minutes blowing up a respawning wall new players would be interested in premium before they'd even started their first mutliplayer game.

    I think one sign right at the end of the tutorial would do for now: "Don't play as builder for at least a week you cunt or I'll break your legs - MM/Geti xox" and hopefully that'd stop new players trying to build when they haven't a clue what they're doing yet. Seriously though, new players need to be encouraged to go archer or knight and wait until they get used to the game, not that anyone would listen...

    My first game was pretty bad..I saw somone fall into a spike trap so I took all his money and got a bomb. Then pressed every button on my computer to relise it said on the screen "Light Bomb = f" So I lit the bomb and took out a team tower. Then everybody got annoyed and said i was a noob bomb thrower. :D

    I still remember some of the highlights of my first online game of CTF:

    Jab wars :heart:
    Wondering why I couldn't fire arrows and throw bombs. (Had none):oops:
    trying to dig bedrock. :huh?:
    Jab wars as archer.

    and building these:

    :castle_wall::ladder:
    :castle_wall:
    :ladder: :castle_wall::ladder:
    :castle_wall:
    :ladder: :castle_wall:
    :castle_wall::ladder:
