I started the download a few minutes ago so I'm wondering some things.

1. What is the point of it?

2. Are there skills or is it just shooting/stabbing?

3. Is there a tutorial ingame?

4. How do you make money?

5. What exactly are the factions or whatever?

6. How many players are there?

7. Are the graphics nice?

8. Is the world big?

9. Are there mounts? (or cars or whatever)

Is it fun?

1) Predetermined organizations(factions) competinig, co-operating and intriguing with each other.
2) No character progression.
3) There is a tutorial video installed within game client.
4) Up to your creativity.
5) Answered in 1)
6) No idea, it seems quite populated as it is now.
7) A bit out-dated but ok.
8) Relative. Easily exapndable.
9) No.

10) Yes, it is quite fun and the project got lots of potentional. The devs seems very competent.

What's a tutorial VIDEO? Is it ingame or outside of the game?

Outside of game. You should find a shortcut to tutorial video after client instalation and just find in manualy in root directory.

That sounds a bit crappy, but I guess ill have to watch it. The game seems like it will be very confusing.

Video is more of a introduction. What I find interesting is the factions are player ran, meaning no npcs to go to and such. Completely player driven. It is pretty entertaining, well for me at least. Gfx are a bit dated, no AoC or Aion waiting to sneak up on you. Give it a go, don't have much to lose....except your soul!

Last thing:

Is there anyone here that plays who'd be willing to get me started (teach me things ingame/give me a gun?)

I've decided to not play this game. The damn install file won't open. Total bullshit...

Sounds more like the file decided you weren't the chosen one.

Well I just spent the last ten minutes downloading and installing it for shits and giggles, anyone have a suggestion for faction/activities, wanna newbie group, etc?

 

Don't really know what to make of the bonuses/stats the factions get yet, figure I'll have to learn that part with time and adjust my play style as necessary. :p

I would suggest to join the FDC (or LED) first. They by far have the best teaching programs in the game, however they have an hard time coop now because of the amount of new recruits. Most factions however do have nice folks in them willing to lend a hand to new people.

 Hi All,

Just wanted to clarify a few points. Upon installation of the game a shortcut to the in depth tutorial video is created on your desktop. But you can also find the full tutorial here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=4A908D6C0B0726DD&search_query=face+of+mankind+tutorial

 

If you are having issues installing the game the GM team will be more than happy to help you via http://support.fomportal.com or you can get help from other players on the help section of the forums.

 

Thanks

Apathy

nah, i dont think FDC or LED is the place for new players to go, based on what i have read on reports, LED are supposed to the be Police, but according to many players, they. instead act violently and even kills with no reason

 

the better Organizations i heard is the Government of Mankind or something

because that is where all the "supposedly" good people gathers,

 

well as for now i have played the game for 3 hours, but havent even have any idea how to join GoM as there isn't a freakin single person on the street yet, well there is, but i am being ignored whenever i ask a question or, gets kill for no freakin reason

 

i know it's full open PVP, but at least have some consideration not to kill a clueless players that have just enter the game, it'll just make them think that the game is not fun to play when you have no idea about it at all and kept getting stabbed or being shot

So What Now?
