They need to teach new players more of the game mechanics. They are blindly thrown into academy battles with little idea of how to hack objectives and how installations and equipment work. They also know little of the different suit roles or how they benefit. For example MAG had you take a training course that looked different based off of what faction you chose. It had all the basics and other features that new players need I know before they fight other players. The training course taught simple FPS things like shooting aiming and switching weapons, but it also taught how to capture objectives and how to repair and destroy the structures you see on the game constantly. How to fit this into dust, make each training course relate to the race the player chooses by the style of the course and the voice the instructor has. They start out with a firing range and learn how to aim shot throw nades and so forth. A supply depot is nere by and they use it to use various suits ranging in weapons and equipment and if it's a scout or heavy. They do this for the first part learning the basic weapons and suit types. They then go to the next part where the instructor asks then to how then their skill in piloting vehicles they then use a test course for lavs havs and dropships and if they somehow die they can spawn at a cru as instructed by the instructor. After completing that they move tolerant about objectives and installations. They learn how to hack objectives and why to do so and same with installations and how they can use them. And somewhere give ten a basic understanding of equipment as well with uplinks and nanohives. After completing this training course they then fight a academy battle or two to fight actual players. At some point before hand thy should be told how to communicate with their team and how voice chat works. This would help blue berries not be so dumb and help them be more helpful and help then understand the basis of the game without having to struggle on their own causin us older players headaches. They would also be in a better position to learn more advanced game mechanics on their own if such a thing was implemented. Also in a sense it'd help with the player base by making new players feel less confused and useless when they first start. Thy wouldn't feel like quoting because they don't know what's going on. And a better main screen tutorial would help then as well with understanding how all of it works.

Not trying to be a douchebag but you should break that up into some paragraphs.
Right now, it looks daunting. And you might have some good ideas... |

Paragraphs would make it easier to read that essentially academy training needs to be in bite size chunks with one idea per chunk kind of like a paragraph..

Paragraphs - because the human brain isn't all what its cracked up to be and blinking won't help with this either, that's a different kettle of fish.

Ok I know it's not ******* perfect but does that mean everything to you Jesus Christ. Just actually think about what was typed I don't give a **** about it not being in paragraphs if it wasn't a ***** to type on my phone cause my computer is busted then I would've gladly made it all nice. Nothing's always how you want it t be so once again focus on the actual topic.

Although its not proper, I can handle all that in one chunk, I don't actually care if people use correct grammar or not here.
In future just remember this is a game forum where we converse on an in formal basis, its not a place of commerce so just tell people to do one mate, I was just being a smart @$$ lol.

I was going to ask for a tl;dr but someone else broke it up.
Your points are valid, exactly what we need to prove NPE, and I've seen these exact threads multiple times, CCP needs to take note, if they want to take in revenue that is... |

+1 for your content OP, many of us have been saying the same thing for months. CCP's objective-based approach is good for some things, but hands-on training is also required to prep peeps for what they're going to face as soon as they're out of the academy.
The only reason i read it was Xocoyol's and Tch Tch's editing. If you care enough that you want peeps to read your posts, put a little effort into thinking about your audience.
