How do YOU Treat new PR Members? :D

Redamare · 01-20-2010, 03:23 PM

^_^ I love when you find a new PR player in game or even on the forums

lol its great seeing that more and more people are switching over to this mod and getting way from the Damn Arena gameplay of VBF2. Finding people who appreciate the work which has gone into the mod makes is always awsome to hear about :P

...Soo i was curious to see how the rest of the community of PR deals with new PR members..
give a short explaination on how you help out, react to new players..

if you have a story about brining over a friend through a connection that would be good too

What is your favorate thing about new members and how do you try to help them get situated?

I try to help them as much as i can and keep them off the choppers

i make them to take medic kit )
and serve me

I like helping them out and teaching them how to be a teamplayer... It's always good when you teach someone new how to work together.

Why no one admit telling them how to get secret kits by pressing alt-f4, because after all that's all I see on the server chat no matter what a newcomer just asked.

snooggums · 01-20-2010, 04:17 PM

I treat them with suspicion

If they seem interested in learning I do everything I can to get them knowledgeable.

If they have a poor attitude and are rude then I note the game is a team game and ignore them until they improve their attitude.

I always tell them about deviation and that having the marksman or sniper kit won't make them more accurate if they don't know how to use it.

New players should really stick to the spawnable classes.

I've met a few newbies to PR when i was on a training server once, they were asking around about what the shovel did. So i gave them sort of a training session on the basics of PR gameplay, starting off with building an FOB to show what the shovel really did ("can you hit people with it?"). Afterwards i did advise them to read through the manual, since for the rest i pretty much followed what i could remember from it off the top of my head.

They we're very enthousiastic though and willing to learn, so i had to forgive them for not reading it.

Can't remember their names sadly...

I give em a chance, but if the first thing they do is request the sniper kit, I teach them about the squad kick.

"why did you request the sniper kit?"

"because the the enemy are far away"

"wrong answer"

KICK

but I'm also of the opinion as an admin that kicking people from your server for doing super stupid things teaches them pretty fast not to do them. (flipping choppers, running off with the HAT kit etc)

but if they are willing to learn, I am willing to play with them 100%, and answer any questions they may ask.

CarlosDMB · 01-20-2010, 04:45 PM

Im still in the learning process, have tried to stick to a single kit until I master it or at least get a good handle of it.

The one thats giving troubles is the commander seat, havent been able to find the use of all those buttons in the lower part of the panel. If anyone knows a decent tutorial about the basics please point me out

Luckily Ive ran in to kind squads that will teach if I dont know how to use something.
