how about everyone who joins gets a tutor, or at least a name down the list (from 1- (lets say 200)) and are told to msg them, so that they can learn, and get tips

next person to join would get ebolla, 2nd to join would get soviet, 3rd would be scrixx and so on

i'm sick of catching so many people because they don't understand, and this should be an option on our end, and if they want to turn it down, it's handed to the next person down, with a 8 hour clock on it before it's automatically passed down, and we have to turn on that we want to be a tutor

i think this would improve the quality of game play for all of us >.>

 And if they dont want to? Last thing I would want is some punk 12 year old wanting free software and constantly pestering me. Almost everyone in the top 50 has gone through "trial and error" style of learning. Trying to make the game "newb friendly" is noble,but foolish. You wont learn anything if you dont actually fail a couple times,and from your mistakes you realize what is most important to survival,rather than trying to get knowledge you dont deserve (or have the experience to use).

I began the game, read the game guide, played for 2 days then someone fuc*** me a lot. I needed to restart over.

Just game guide might not be enough.

Althought I think that some kind of option on register can be useful, I think that there may have be a place where the newbs can look for a tutor AND other ones want to give yourselves as it. And we have this "rendezvous point": this FORUM.

Let be create a new section here, or in the game, where this can be done.

as paulo also stated, game guide is sometimes not enough, and friends are half the reason you play a game.........

Oh yeah!

I left one past week because my friend went to another alliance and left me alone (galactic game...).

Playing alone is for super-hyper-ultra-nerds-that-do-not-have-social-life or lone-wolf-sociopathic ones.

Nothing against them, though.

And yes, we are going to (using the grammathical applications).

If they read the Beginner Tutorial it will walk them through all the basics in a step by step fashion that is easy to read.

Also I do update it when I get questions in game from new players that it does not already address.

It is also updated at the SGP forums under New World Order.

But this is a good idea.  There are other games that do similar things such as Eve-Online.
