You know how there are feel good movies? This is a feel good thread.

 

The game is Fractured Space, which is an excellent game. The discussion is game related, so obviously you'll need to have played the game to really follow it, but the TL;DR version of it is:

 

>New player asks for help citing having won only two of his last ten games (games often last thirty or more minutes, and that just gets frustrating.)

>Several experienced players chime in with a wide variety of advice ranging from general gameplay, metagame, and ship specific advice.

>New player engages in conversation - most posts are over 100 words, convey detailed and useful information and are fully on topic.

>After some further conversation, new player makes a post saying that his gameplay experience has drastically improved thanks to said thread.

>Developer chimes in asking new player which advice he found to be most helpful in his experience.

>New player responds and gives good reason for said response.

>Remainder of thread is a discussion on how to better implement that response.

 

9.9/10. (In an ideal world, the developer would have time to also participate in the discussion following the new player's response to his question.)

I'm sorry to disappoint. It does not.

…and we're back to hawken.

 

To be serious when I asked for help, like in the skillwall and mouse sensitivity threads I found this community to be very helpful as well. 

The icing, the developer chiming in, is missing of course, but I'm really suprised by the outpour of help. 

In contrast on the worlds largest archery forum archerytalk.com where I spent countless hours, grown men keep bickering and gossiping about stuff they have no clue about on a daily basis and there is little profound help to be found.

I think you were pretty lucky all in all, in that thread. Been around a while and remember people who asked stuff like that and never really got any help at all, just snarky comments from those who should be the 'best' in the game.

Heh it feels like people are ready to help, provide videos and such nowadays, I'm noticing more detailed help being given. Threads that have titles like "scout is overpowered" devolve into namecalling pretty fast though.
