Tutorial Topics

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 We're going to work on a number of short youtube videos focused on specific tasks in the game. The tutorial will show the website and gameclient being used to perform the task, with a voiceover from the illustrious JD Basher. What I envisage is a webpage with a list of topics: "How do I buy a car", "How do I go scouting", etc. What I'm seeking here are suggestions as to what the topics would be. Here's some that spring to mind: * How do I go scouting? * How do I hire a car? * How do I buy a car? * How do I do a courier mission? * How do I join a league event? * How do I repair my car? * OK, so I'm in the game. What now? ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted May 21, 2009, 2:52 pm Last edited May 21, 2009, 2:53 pm by *sam*

What now? Great idea.  Reading the Wiki isn't as enlightening as actually seeing it done.  For the very VERY newbie, I suggest breaking it up into small bites of info. Driving School: A step by step on entering Driving School and how to operate the basic controls on the car.  End with how to enter a race for fun and profit. Deathracing: Explains and demonstrates various methods of assigning gunners to weapons, selecting targets, etc. The Arena: Explains and demonstrates how to use terrain to advantage. ......................... vet wv Posted May 21, 2009, 3:02 pm

*Lugal* Luna Sea Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals Posts: 2,246 Joined: Jan 27, 2008 What can I do in town? - Break down of the functions of the Tavern, Store, Market, Hospital, Training Center... what am I missing? What is a Camp? - Basic overview of player camps. Not really a new player feature, but it's good to explain what it is - especially if the videos also serve as promotional bits. ......................... vet marshal wv Posted May 21, 2009, 4:52 pm

Jaguar Smoke Jaguars Autodueller Renegade Group: Members Posts: 424 Joined: May 6, 2009 I'd start by looking at the sort of questions that appear in game and in the forums first. Joining a squad, getting two entries in an event, etc. I'd especially look at things that veterans tend to take for granted but that are minor enough that they're easily missed unless you ask - like the F2 and F3 keys for instance. ......................... vet Posted May 22, 2009, 5:38 am

metrocube 12th Street Bangers Darkwind Guru Anarchists Faction Group: Members Posts: 790 Joined: May 1, 2009 Some folks like videos, some folks like to read. If I could make one suggestion, it would be to get some re-use out of the voice-over scripts. The raw V.O. scripts would make excellent research material, and those of us so inclined would use them as a basis for some good reference topics. It's a three-day weekend for us Yankees, and writing some help files for y'all is as good a break as any from my RealJob™. ......................... vet wv Posted May 22, 2009, 6:21 am

What now? =============================== Lets help Sam and Olena out by trying to keep this as easy as possible without them or me having to do too much work to accomplish this GREAT idea! Put your suggestions under the heading your idea pertains to AFTER you copy and paste OR just reply to the most recent one. If you use the 'reply' try to leave the headings bold like they are, easier to read. Just delete all the "quote] [/quote" at the start and end of your reply and add your ideas. =============================== * OK, so I'm in the game.

Hopefully I explained it good enough. This way the scripts I'll be reading and the Tutorials may be able to be made faster. Keep the ideas coming in! Thanks!
