Influx of new players.

I like them cause i single handedly kill entire teams.

 

Yeah I was the same, took only about 2 weeks to grasp the basics, aside from knight and archer things like no ground level doors (at least enemy side ground doors), making pits in line with a tower if they're next to one, instead of leaving a block or two for knights to perch on and for builders to easily ladder on or whatever, knowing when a pit is deep/wide enough, and when a tower is tall and developed enough - and not to keep building and digging just you can, etc are all really basic thing people should be grasping through observation within a week of playing or so.

These kinda things need to be outlined in a tutorial - which I'm sure they will when the devs have time to work on making a more comprehensive one. 1 basic thing for example I never realised was that there was unlimited resources at the tent at the start, 1 guy mentioned it when I'd been playing about a week and then I made a point of telling everyone who mined stone and chopped trees in build phase. Now 1 line of text on your screen avoids 99% of that happening, a few simple pointers like that would go a long way.

By the way, I'm sure alot of people are joking, but I'm also sure alot of people are quite serious about their "lol more nubz 2 pwn :p " sentiment. Is that really the kinda game you want? A dull, intellectually redundant call of duty style free for all where the people with the best individual skill win? I'd personally much rather teach these people to get the next group of tactically sharp team players, that make for a game with some depth that you actually have to think about.

 

Maybe more people should work on the wiki more often so that these n00bz newcomers can learn faster. That's how i learned a lot about the game. I wished they would read the manual more often though. I have seen how do you throw a bomb so often lately. And as more people come the more griefers come too. And every once in a while you find the guy that will buy a premium just to grief and not get votekicked. Then they learn admins can still ban them.

 

We need custom taunts for fuck sake!

"No doors on floor"
"Builders, a ladder for knights!"
"You can rush too Builder!"

 

Real Talk!

 

Nothing more dangerous than a new player the second they figure out how to throw bombs..
