And if they fix it, call the space bar "PRESS HERE TO WIN".

Those are the "space bar heroes", and we need those for EOC target practice.

And then some players start accusing you of hacking becuse you have spent wayyy to much time on this game and can actually hit someone mid-air with EOC >.<

I used to feel the same, but then it just got too much (because i had to use the auto queque most of the time) and i got my fill of fuzzy bunny battles. But i'm happy im not in the same place as those who are much better than me and some vet's even call hackers :O

In general, the new vr tutorial is much worse than the old immersive one IMHO. As I have stated before. Most likely one of big but non-discussed reasons for poor new player retention.
I recommend you to play the tutorial and think how long it actually takes to get really deployed.

It's probably my rose-tinted glasses but the old tutorial screams HAWKEN more than the current VR polygon hell.

It does. Old tutorial fit in with the gritty, hell in the trenches feel of Hawken. Now's its moved to a more clean, shiny, VR simulation (Think HUD) feel. Sad but it is what it is.

Coming from a person that wasn't here long enough to know what the old tutorial was like, it does seem to fit Hawken better than the VR we have now. Like you're taking an on-field training tour in an improvised, scrapped together training area, in a world where scrapping things together is how it rolls.

 

Also, what about this? Are they referring to how hugging a wall can sometimes let you go higher than if you were hovering in open air?

 

"Hovering works better with objects under your feet"

 

Did they not include this in the new tutorial? I had to learn this from experience.

Yeah I'm gonna have to agree. The current tutorial is pretty bad. I'd guess that even Hello Kitty probably has a better one, LOL. :thumbsup:

+10 mmr everytime you complete VR training. This should be common sense.

I really, really miss that old tutorial. Even if it was unfinished and could have been more informative, it fit the game way better. Even how it starts, in the mech hangar... that feels so Hawken, and is something we need to see more of.

 

Can you imagine what it could have been? A whole playground of training, maybe something along the lines of those training maps in UT and such, where the basics are easily completed, but the more difficult things are also there if you wanted to try them. Have some mechs beyond the blue barriers doing some training on their own would have been really badass (practicing on targets/drones, sparring, etc.), maybe spice it up with a battleship or two flying overhead. So many possibilities there, so many missed opportunities to make it awesome.

That tutorial certainly looks a lot cooler, but there are definitely still gaps regarding basic knowledge that it should probably cover

She just means you can fly higher if there is something below you. The height cap.


This ^_^ 

I agree with the desire to be able to see the actual ping time to each server.  I have it high on my list of things to address when we start releasing new client builds.  That would be a much better solution.
