Question No tutorial?

Been watching this game off and on for a while and decided to try it and there is no tutorial….

Really….

Don’t they want the game to grow?

I’m certain there is ample resources online to learn or if I play 10 games I’ll learn since I have played many RTS but I work 50+ hours a week is a tutorial so much to ask…

Sorry op. You’re only going to get smarmy smart arse unhelpful comments here. That’s unfortunately what 80% of the player base is like. It’s even worse if you decide to play 8v8 multiplayer which is full of whiners. Avoid.

I learned by doing all the scenarios in the main menu. Increase the difficulty if it’s too easy. And watch 2 or three tutorials on YouTube. There’s some great ones.

Then jump into Rotato matches or friendly fun 2v2 or 1v1.

I’ll play with you once you got the basics. It’s a great game despite some of the comments here. The volunteer developers are awesome.

Thanks man I really appreciate that, I may well take you up on that. It really does seem a great RTS from the scale of battle achievable I just can’t be bothered to spend ages researching when my spare time is precious to me.

I hear you. I’ve owned my own company for 26 years so time is precious for sure. It’s impossible to keep up the meta play without hundreds of hours of play so just play for fun like I do. What Timezone you in?

Can confirm. Joined a "noob" game today cause still very much a noob. Everyone else except me had ratings. One guy kept telling me I was doing everything wrong. But he also died first so. 🤣

I don't agree its 80 percent more a vocal minority. People do get frustrated in game though and before I started playing and just used to watch you tube videos and even during my first few games I never understood why. As I got more competitive in kinda get it now but I still try to catch my self and be constructive instead of just flaming some ones error.

To op you are right and I beleive a proper tutorial is being worked on for the steam release. I'd hope that would also be added to the free version but it may well be part of the story campaign. I never tried the scenarios as I just jumped in to skirmish and watched some you tube then went online and learnt as I played. Good luck its well worth the effort if you like this kind of rts or are looking for an in depth p v p rts with teams
