This somewhat along the lines of what I proposed in this thread: http://smrcnn.smrealms.de/viewtopic.php?t=8524 - Give a tactical advantage to having newbies around. Letting them have full maps of their racial gives a vet alliance a reason to get up to 8 newbies. All we have to do is give them a rea...

[...] There's no real reason this idea should be pushed for until we have a larger player base. I've been away for a bit so I don't know: Has it been tried? I think Azool wrote somewhere in another thread that NAPs are implemented in the code, just not activated so it could be done. Maybe we're loo...

Balance means they have to be equal, not that they have to be the same. Vindi has a lot of offense which makes it good for hunting traders. That should be enough to justify that ship. It doesn't have to be able to fight all other hunter class ships because that's not what it's for. If anything then ...

Before you go all nuts with adding more explanations about why you're not currently safe, I would like to suggest that we get a checkbox in Preferences: "Yeah I get it. Please remove the red and yellow protection warnings from the upper right quadrant of my screen where I mostly look for attack...

It's a balance issue. If you give out too much information on LM you'll remove the need for LS. That'll favor the people with fast connections and low ping times even more since LM is a little more load heavy than LS.

LM is for overview and LS is for detail.

qiraz, welcome to the game and welcome to the web board. Always nice to see someone new get into the community. In all honesty, I haven't read all the posts on this thread so forgive me if I'm repeating something that others have already said. Maybe next time get into chat and have someone help you ...

First of all I'd like to promote my suggestion from this thread: http://smrcnn.smrealms.de/viewtopic.php?t=8522 Second I have another suggestion. What newbies really need is not to learn the game fast. What they really need is interaction with other players and to get a positive experience from the ...

Let's try it and if it fails, we can all say "I told you so" to Cuda :p

Honestly though, this may not be a good idea but I doubt it'll ruin the entire game if we did it for a round or two. Let's give it a shot and go back if it turns out to go bad.

1) Always good to see a vet return or just keep in touch.
