But seriously, we need to do our best as a community to make them feel at home. This is of utmost importance for the survival of this game in the long run, and it's something that is almost entirely in our hands the moment UWE ships. Us vets got to set the standard, you know.
Sooooo

I'm just pumped for the peeps who race into com chair and start spamming Turrets and hundreds of power packs. Gonna be soooo funny.
Also, I'm pretty sure most rookies will be intimidated by the idea of commanding at first, so the bigger difficulty will be winning games with aliens :P. I predict the alien win rate is going to plummet hard the first few days of release at least, until all these new players fully grasp the mechanics
That moment when you remember you can only have 3 sentries per room
Good thing theres a lot of rooms :P
I'd rather new players just not jump into com chair, they have so much to learn beforehand that they can gain just by playing the game as either an alien or marine. If you have a bad comm, everyone on the team is going to pay the price AND newer players are gonna have a bad experience cause they have a bad comm. Soooo experienced players RUSH TO THE CHAIR! IT IS UP TO YOU!
Considering I don't have patience sometimes, I'm guessing it'll be bad...
Brace yourselves indeed.
no, i've watched so many vids on this game. comming is NOT that hard. maybe to someone who bought the game and has no sweet clue what to do. As this game hasnt had all that much media attention beyond steam and tournys, gotta give people a chance man. :) see you tomorrow at midnight ;) maybe
I've been doing it for years and i am still finding it stressful. It depends on your underlings, if they are pushy or dont follow orders, your day is not going to be fun.
Aww u got inb4me
Nice pic :P
Don't worry about screwing up, we all do, even still! Can't wait to see you around in-game! Get ready for one helluva experience! :)
Imagine how good it will be to teach these guys and in a couple of weeks from now they will be just like us falling in love with this game and enjoying the company they are with.
It would be fun to have that big player base for years to come instead of getting stuck with the people who basiclly made everyone else leave YES am looking at some of you guys who are still playing NS1!
ps. we gotta recommend to use a mic and "C" for all new players. specially using a mic as a new commander to easly help them thru the game if they ask questions.
Same boat as you, I have been watching videos for a while now I think once I get into a few games I can get the hang of it won't be commanding anytime soon, but that just because I like alien side the best it fits my more sneaky nature. ;)
Finally I can give people advice without them responding:
"#### you, your wrong and I know how to play this game better than you... Go kill yourself."
I will happily be spending all my time Alien trying to teach people how to command and play the
more difficult life forms.

as long as you have this mindset, i would say jump in the chair and go for it. good vets will coach you from the field anyway. dont forget to ask questions in all-talk, there may not be experienced people on your team at times, but people on the other team might, and they will prolly help you even though theyre the "enemy"
Haven't looked but, I hope my $25 go toward the devs of original mod.

Black Armoured players are like gods. They aim better, move better, even own you with an axe better. Black armour is OP! Be very very afraid! ;)
And yeah, your $25 goes to the same guys!
I remember alpha when everybody was Black Armour or Beta where there was plenty of them.
And of course you can't forget the <b>Eternal Gratitude</b> from devs, only Special Edition got that.

No, it has nothing to do with member number.
Same, which is why i dont understand people who are beta players insist upon "guiding" people or hand holding. I already know everything about the game...and i havent played it. Its nice to be welcomed by vets and ty, but people dont always need their hand held.
