Hey Guys,

because of our upcoming LAN Party where we plan to infect some ppl with natural selection 2 we spent some time in doing german tutorial vidz.

At the moment there is a marines and an aliens basics tutorial - but 2 commander tutorials will follow shortly.

You can find the tutorials at the following URL: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/exit1at" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/user/exit1at</a>

If you've got any feedback we would appreciate to hear from u.

cu,
darky

    Mighty fine tutorials, explains a lot about the game. And I love the way you guys pronounce George and have Lerks crash and burn instead of dieing :D

    You did mention something about the powergrid, but a dedicated informational tutorial on the powernodes and powergrid would be good as well as it was only mentioned halfway trough or at the end of the video's. And perhaps about the alien movement, because that is a pretty big part of the aliens (vents, wallwalking and such). Commander tutorials are in the making, I heard?

    At any rate, they will be a good introduction for German speaking players!

    Thanks for your praise. :)

    Damit. I did it again - called him george instead of gorge. Sry, my fault :D

    We've tried to reduce the content to the absolut minimum and - to be honest - we've noticed the missing alien movement part after the video was finished. :P
    Afterwards i think it is a good idea to explain that in detail in a seperate video tutorial. XuXu of our team has just started the marine commander and hopefully it will be available soon.

    The tutorial was suitable as an in game tutorial for alien movement. For a youtube video I think its better if you show more real gameplay and explain at the same time. Explaining wasd forward/back/left/right etc isn't really necassary. Why not focus on those things unique to NS2? People know about firing guns and basic movement :P

    Good for you for making it though. You speak slower than NS2HD, which I prefer.

    "Eliens" ^^
    isn't it supposed to be pronounced "Äjliens"?

    BTW aliens..
    I found a mistake in the Alientutorial. You say that the infantryportal still works if the power goes out. But it doesn't afaik.


    I think the tut is okay. It's baisic information for beginners, but as someone pointet out:

    ...this would create tention and make the tut more exciting.

    Germans aren't Indians :D They've got a Kommandant not a Häuptling and killing George the Gorge may be in violation of local health ordinances!

    true story bro! =)

    so to give a point, actually we aren't Germans. We are from Austria, (NOT Down Under!) :)

    uhhhh... I think I'd need to listen to that to understand what you are trying to say ^^ (might be a problem with the different pronunciation in germany vs. austria).

    Yeah, you are right! Thanks :) Fortunately the game is still in development, so we will have to make new versions of our tutorial videos soon enough.

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->I think its better if you show more real gameplay and explain at the same time.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Yeah, i see what you mean. It is for beginners though, so I have to assume - and here it's getting difficult -, that the viewer knows next to nothing. Everything that is shown is new and I don't want to throw myself into an epic battle, explaining things while the viewer is completely overwhelmed with different audio and visual information.

    But of course I'll keep it in mind and will try to realize it where possible! Now that I think about it, maybe that's a good idea for a weapons tutorial, where you can get right into action ^^

    Nice, it would be great if the Game has some button in the menu later, which allow "new" people to like:
    Watch Tutorial -> choose your language -> Bink video (or if bink cost = flash?) will played.
    So just one Video with diffrent voices or texts.
    Edit:
    You miss something, if you build the hydra, you can decrease the buildtime by using E (USE) button <img src="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/style_images/tsa/folder_post_icons/icon1.gif" border="0" class="linked-image" /> : 4:30

    P.S. hab ich mir doch gedacht das du österreicher bist :P

    Nice idea. Nice outcome.

    I think tutorials are very important, especially about the "basics". Most people fear the complexity, so we have to start showing them how simple the basics are and try to get them interested in further details over such basic tuts.

    I recommend to add subtitles in different languages, or multi-language support =D

    cheers

    "Zirkumflex" (circumflex) - ah, now I know the right word for the "Dach" (roof/ engl. equivalent: bent around) xD

    "You crash if you hit a wall".... erm... no, that's not how it is. ^^

    Another point: Some words are very noisy.

    "Wo eure Eier stehn" - "Were your eggs/balls stand..." erm... outch xD

    "Jetzt wird gleich die Notbeleuchtung angehen - Rüchtüüg" *rofl*

    Overall it's a good, detailed tutorial.

    It does for the first one or a single one but not for the infantryportal in general.

    Only a view steps away from perfection... But don't wonder about some single laughs - depending on the minds that watch that video xD

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Another point: Some words are very noisy.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Uh... you mean the voice is too loud?

    Uhhhh... I guess I'm too old for that joke ^^ And besides it is called eggs, so... yeah how else would you call it :)
