Hmmm, the dogfighting will probably be out of my comfort zone until flight in this game becomes second nature to me. Until then, I've been trying to stick with probing, nanning, and the occasional miner killer role.

@ogoroass: Yeah, I think I hit an asteroid just once in training. The first game I played had me flying in circles trying to find things/figure out what I wanted to do.

I know that there is a match speed button (M) but I'm talking about and Auto match where if the other craft changes speed, so do ...

Another LARPer, eh?

For awhile I was in Dagorhir, but I dropped it once I realized that the bruises were interfering with the BioChemistry study. /mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mad:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

Well... Here is my progression:

Skipped step 1 by reading through the academy before starting and running the training sims several times (as stated earlier, the momentum aspect gave me trouble as I switched here from Freespace.)
Ok. In truth, I spent 5 minutes in step 1 in my first game. Then I ...

Hmmm, followed the links to sign up for Cadet I. Just as a curious question, is it the same information that is on the website through all three weeks of course material? I admit to reading all of it prior to signing up to the game or the forums, so I probably cannot say that my retention or ...

you know, I took a look at Cadet I and I thought it said that they meet at regular times? If so, I don't know if I'll be able to do that.

Yeah, first time poster here too. I've gone through a handful of newbie server games before taking a look at the forums (this being the fourth thread I've looked at). It's good to see people standing up for us newbies, especially to us (0) ones. Frankly, I'm a FreeSpace1/2 vet and the physics of ...
