Because of there is no lengthy tutorial system for new players, I imagine that many people don't enjoy darkfall in their first hours or days(not saying that is the only problem). There is not that much information given as newbies are thrust into a world that seems empty and boring. Therefore any new players can pm me ingame for any help/questions. Maybe some free armor/weapons/gold to get you started if you travel to the jungles of yssam and join a clan that I live with. IGN - nuclear terrorist

Why dont you tell those lazt ass devs to actually create one. even if it starts out poor, the community will make it better. CCp has been doing it with eve all these years, perfecting their tutorial system. They quite nailed it. Tasos should spend some time on makeing a simple tutorial even if its fucking text. Start a suggestion thread. Put all your ideas on what would be best to let new players know so they can be retained. you know you need those new players, those = more population, targets and money to keep the game alive. If they refuse to do one. well give it a year or 2 and darkfall will be buried right next to dark and light. Watching Fanbois drop their soap in a prison full of desperate men.

The man made a nice jesture to folks and regardless of popular opinion of DF thread should be kept that way.

Originally posted by SpeedMann I guess darkfall's more hardcore than eve. Sure is. That and a couple dollars will probably get you a Happy Meal. That said, with the recent patch, apparently AV is trying to add some of the things the players have asked for. So, maybe a more involved tutorial system is on the way. In the absence of such a system, it's pretty cool to see someone representing the DF community in a positive light. It would be interesting to see if enough like-minded people can pull off something along the lines of Eve University...you know...just more hardcore and all that.... -mklinic "There's a point I think we're missing.

This happened a lot outside of Delucia, where they would run around and kill the Shepards. Yeah what happened was that I hit him a couple of times on accident and went Grey then he got all mad and killed me when I was working on another mob. Then when I did my corpse run he got me again before I got to it (should have Rested first). Then I guess he tried to get back into Monkfield Bank and got zapped by towers! Of course I looted his corpse, got my stuff back plus some of his stuff (all crappy noob stuff) then he sends me a tell asking me if we can call it a truce! I said Sure since you started it, then he asked me how to "Stop being evil" (i.e. turn back to Blue) and I say Stop killing me for a start! It was quite funny in a wierd way. Its better to be Ganked by a clueless noob than a group of tw@s that likes to camp at the Starter Goblin areas! If you see Pong Lenis (yes thats his IGN) whack him a few times then ask him "How do i stop being Evil"!

If you see Pong Lenis (yes thats his IGN) whack him a few times then ask him "How do i stop being Evil"! Cool story. More of that kind of stuff, and less of the over-zealous fanboi talk would go a long ways in helping DarkFall overcome the stigma that it currently has. There are only a handful that have done a very good job at giving DarkFall it's reputation. If more DarkFall players would post stuff like what you did there... who knows... DarkFall might have a future yet. On second thought... Tasos still has to go. He is the leader of those who have given DarkFall it's sullied name. Just as AoC's reputation improved dramatically once Guate was "let go"; DarkFall would improve drastically by getting rid of Tasos. Heh... yeah. That is just my opinion. Others are free to disagree.
