I've spent the last month recording gameplay footage for a Dust 514 tutorial series called "Surviving Dust". I've planned out the structure, written most of the scripts, and built a lot of art assets; i've just been waiting for some decent audio equipment before doing any serious editing of the footage. My audio equipment arrives tomorrow, but the question I have now is "Is there any demand for a tutorial series aimed at helping new players?"
I would love to get some community feedback in order to guage player interest. If you could answer the following questions in your response I would greatly appreciate it.
- Are you a new player?
- If yes, are you interested in 5-10 minute tutorial videos? What topics are you most interested in?
- If no, have you recently squaded with a new player who you think would benefit from 5-10 minute tutorials? What topics do you think would benefit these players the most.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
I'll upload the series outline later today once I get back home.

Basic fps skills guide would also benefit casual players like me. I will watch those videos becase i spent more time watching fan made videos than i did playing the game. |

All new players need to know is that CCP is no longer developing dust and that they will shut it down (probably in the next six months)
I let my sniper rifle bullet to your face do all the talking :P

this would have been a great series if DUST was still being developed. there's no real reason to get newbies to play this POS when it's not going to get any better.
however, when Legion comes out, if you plan on playing that, then I'd love to see some of these ideas put into videos.

Dude go ahead and make it. Link it all over the forums. If the material is good stuff I assure you, others will pass on the link or show it to others.
Do it because you want to do it, dont feel held back.

Hell to the Yes to the exclamation point.
If you have the footage and the time, do it. Sounds like a great idea.

Really good series so far. Might be worth posting a link in the rookie training ground and submitting it to the new guide compilation? Not sure if it's still being updated given the current situation, but more visibility is always good.

Excellent work sir! I loved tribes and it was great to see footage of it again. Perfect explanation of why dust is different. If ccp havent already done so they should community spotlight this series. Very well done and thanks again for the tribes footage. |

You should also advertise that this game is an open beta for EVE: Legion, people that watches your videos and want to try DUST have the right to know what they're getting into.

Surviving Dust: Strategy and Tactics TBA
Surviving Dust: Strategy and Tactics 1) Evasive Action as infantry 2) Squad play in following a good Squad Leader 3) Squad Play in being a Squad Leader 4) Vehicles 101 (What are they, SP requirements) *I think vehicles are advanced concepts 5) Vehicles 201 (When and how to use vehicles) *When to shield tank, when to armor tank, etc. 6) Vehicles 301 (Advanced Vehicle Tactics) *vehicle vs vehicle combat 7) PC (what is it and how it differs from the rest) 8) When to Specialize and when to be versatile *Pure LOGI vs a Slayer type logi and other examples 9) MLT fits for Ambush to grind ISK 10) Picking your battles (can't win every fight so knowing when to run) 11) Infantry AV
I think you can shorten the Surviving Dust: Guides to being a lot less. There isn't much of a reason to differentiate so many details, you can probably explain all suits in one guide. In addition, It would be better to just talk about LW and HW as opposed to listing AV weapons and then having a guide on HW. Just note the AV weapons in the HW guide.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestions! I'll do my best to incorporate them into my plan and give you a shout out for any suggestions I use.

Lol, well I'm being about half troll here. There really is ALOT of players that follow these steps. Every update we get that touches on weapons is followed with forums being flooded and many many support tickets put in.
for some reason, CCP just keeps giving out respecs. They should just sell them.
Anyway, I've watched your videos and appreciate all the effort your putting forth to help newbies. Regardless of being a dieing game, it will still be around for some time. |

Sounds very promising. I'm planning to do something similar, but in spanish. Sadly, i still don't have my capture gear, but soooooon!!.
I love watching Dust videos with content more than just gameplay. |

Very Nice and Good luck to you,
I agree completely with you that even though DUST has had quite the kick in the balls at FanFest that there a still people wandering into this game and a good new player guide in video is always a nice addition imo. When i started i read every guide i could find in the forums and video is a lot easier to digest i think.
Now i also said good luck because as it stands your roadmap is quite hefty, that's one hell of a job.
Here's my Feedback after watching it if your interested;
GÇó I'm pretty sure It's Dust Five One Four and FiveFourteen Just doesn't sound right. This is a personal tick i know.
GÇó If i'm watching a tutorial/guide about what DUST514 is i would expect to see more weapons than a CR the whole video. ( clearly you have some awesome footage, with PLC, Bolt, Tanks. because that RE/PLC kill at the end was pretty awesome. )
GÇó Maybe a video about the concept of shield vs armour or will that be covered in the Racial video?
GÇó Am i skipping my pills or is there no equipment guide?

So many good points!
I've never really known if there was an official way to say the full title of the game. But I went and re-watched a bunch of fanfest clips and sure enough, CCP talks about it as DUST five one four. Time to go re-record some audio.
Thank's for the feedback on weapon variety. I'll start using footage featuring other weapons.
My next episode "Character Creation, Merc Quarters, & the Neocom" will briefly cover the differences between shields and armor. I'll also have a tactics and strategy episode devoted to shield and armor playstyles.
You're right! I can't believe I edited out my equipment guide. I'll add that back in immediately.
Thanks so much for the feedback. +1 Million ISK per feeback to you (next time I login)
