1. Tank advice - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I think it's a matter of how far you want to penetrate the field. The game is rather like chess - you want units covering other units - if you rush in with no cover, someone just comes and carves you up. A sica tank can sit back near your own red...

2. Shooting and Surviving - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
Get into an advanced assault suit pronto Everything else feels like tissue paper after that - you get shot in an advanced assault, go to run behind a wall and...sometimes you get behind the wall! Sometimes you return fire and...live! In standard...

3. Active Scanner/Dropship? - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
The error level isn't something you control. You just sweep and hope it doesn't have any errors. I think errors just means it misses some targets it should have picked up. AFAICR, assault drop ships let the pilot shoot

4. I just want to know; why is everyone ruining me with the same gear? - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I'm wondering about collision detection. I've had a few weird events. Certainly dust has had weird collision detection in the distant past - I remember I had it down to a fine art where I'd strafe back and forth and do little bursts, carving the ...

5. Tired of being stomped? Join a Squad today! - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
Well good on you for running the experiment to test the theory! The issue that gets me is when I just want another match and...I can't get into one (and I don't know what the squad leader is doing)

6. Getting destroyed after graduating from academy battles. - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
You tend to survive longer in an assault suit, if you can skill into it. The others...you evaporate if the other guy even looks your way. It's not great game design, IMO. You might want to rove around in blaster tanks (or sica tanks for long rang...

9. Loyalty Rank Metrics: A Guide - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
Is that some of the worst incentive design - you hide how your incentive actually works and you don't make it update after doing the things you want the player to do - you make it update much latter?

10. Protostompers Nyain San The worst - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
They should just have a mode where it's militia gear only but you can only play in it once every 20 minutes (so as to encourge people to play in other modes as well). That way it's all player skill vs player skill. Everyones using the same stuff.

12. So how do I counter a warbage strike (think I spelled it correctly) - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
CCP doesn't really make games - they make programs that like a chameleon take on the colours of a game, but aren't one. You're just noticing the inconsistancies that show they aren't trying to make a game. At best it works as a game in the sense...

13. Swarm Launcher: Is it still viable? - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I thought you were just supposed to harass drop ships with swarms - that's why they give you some WP just for getting past it's shields. Because generally that (and making it run away) is as good as you get.

15. What's the range on combat rifles? - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
Repe Susi wrote: Here you go Shortest optimal range on Combat Rifle 54m. Besides 40m is really close, don't you think? Given the things seem to spray like a SMG, no, it seems like a long range SMG. Ie, a SMG without any downside.

16. PC scenario: 2 bricked Heavies, 1 Logi, 1 Super Strafing Cal Assault... - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I'll wait on a test on the kb/m vs ds3 thing. I know if I had to use a ds3 to use windows, I would take twice as long to click on an icon than with a mouse. On topic, are we allowed to have a sniper for harassment - snipers are not just about ki...

17. What's the range on combat rifles? - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I'm pretty sure some of them killed me from about 40 meters with those high ROF weapons. Did they change while I was away?

There was this scout who saved my bacon twice - then dropped an armour repairer! I tried aiming at him to get his/her name, but it was a long one, he/she was always strafing and I'd have liked to send a thank you note to them (mebe some isk) Is ...

19. Forge gun skills - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I'm like swarming a drop ship - it's softened up... then a small white sun flies across the sky and slaps into its side, detonating it. Don't even care about the kill steal, just 'whoa!'

20. I'm sorry for all of you new players. - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
The easiest thing to learn is that it's entirely about getting better. Many situations are simply random chances of death - you press alot of buttons and push sticks, but really it's a crap shoot. Don't beat yourself up for not being able to make...
