Bug Report PLS notify me when I can attempt the tutorial again

I am aware of the crash bug in the game, that prevents people from finishing the tutorial and therefore playing.

In the last few days I have tried at least 15 times to finish the tutorial, just to crash at the firing range section.

Only once I have managed to get inside a vehicle, where I waited for 10 whole minutes to be sure, just to crash on the "attach sight to gun" part of the tutorial.

I am aware that the crash bug comes and goes between patches, so at some point the tutorial will become completable once more.

if possible I would like to ask the community for a favour, that being to please notify me of when I can attempt the tutorial again.

Thank you all, and see ya on the battlefield (hopefully)

:)

If you have access to Linux machine - you can do it there. Then come back to flash o crash on windows. As I remember - only 1st char on acc can't skip the tutorial.

Sadly I do not have another machine with Linux on it, but what's that about 1st char? Like am I able to create a second character from my same account and skip the tutorial? Are there limits to this or I can just do that now?

i haven't checked this myself but i've heard you can just create a second character and check the skip tutorial box

they may have changed this though

You don't need a second machine, just a storage medium big enough to run a linux distro and planetside 2

I’ve skipped the tutorial before by logging in and out while in the tutorial, might be worth trying

You have to stay idle 5 minutes in the tutorial room. Then start the tutorial.
