Hi everyone, after spending some days looking into the discovery mod and this site I decided to join in on the RP fun.
I will be clear hower I am a complete noob, I have experience of FL from the distant past, although I lost intrest in the game and it was only after I saw this mod my intrest was rekindled. However I have no RP experience on FL but am very willing to learn from experience.
I was going to join earlier but had the dreaded Vista problems, which I how now hopefully fixed for good and I look forward to having a bash on the RP servers now I have read the rules.
the rp is a bit indepth...but if you sit back and watch for a few days shouldnt be too hard to pick up the basics. and if worse comes to worse you can always ask.
Welcome to Disco. Any problems or questions you have, just post 'em, or ask us in game. It'll take you a while to get to know what's going on, so just use your common sense, and in most situations you'll be fine.
Thanks everyone, I just had my first try today at the RP server, it was a mixed bag of results really. Did a few missions in the New York system, was a bit puzzled as to what I should be doing, and then as I was heading towards a jump gate someone gave me 500k :yahoo:. Not sure what to do with it, think i'll buy a better ship.
Biggest problem i'm having really is like everyone said it's a bit overwhelming at first, not sure what to do and worried that I might be breaking a rule without realising it. Plus I don't want to offend ppl in game with noob questions.
Overall though 500k is a good start, just need to get my lvl up a bit.
Welcome to our community!
For your worries about breaking rules without realising, i can recommend clickint the "Holy Book" link in my sig. You can also read through some sanction notes in the Rules section.
And, if you don't want to offend people in game with noob questions, you can ask them here on the forums, or you can get Skype and join the Disco Help channel. Details about it can be found in the sticky made by tazuras here in this subforum. It's also a good place to meet nice people, and experienced players.
You can also PM your questions to a player carrying the [The_Angels] tag infront of their name, they will help you.
Else than that, have fun here!
