[SC] Things that push noobs away

-In general the huge gap between Ufe and noobs.
-The cost to get normal things
-the cost to get uber things
-the cost to upgrade those things
-the effort to level up to get actually rewarding npc kills
-the fact that companies rarely have players that actually give a damn about noobs, or worse killem
-the fact that you effectively can be outgunned by a pet until you hit full fe
-The fact that once you can outgun a pet you can now be hit with your goli's Hp in a salvo of rsb
-the fact that the one of 4 ways to become Ufe, pally, is constant filled with aliens that murder you and players that murder you more quickly
- the fact that even the cost effective way to get powerful is about a month of your average wage
-the fact that the free way to get powerful will take you a very long time
- the fact that the ww way will force you to have to mortgage your house first, and buy canned food for the rest of your life
-the fact that to box effectively, you need to have Doubler, pet with RC3, all that and bio
-the fact that trying to become Ufe by just questing And killing stuff won't get you anywhere except being a level 21 FE.
- the fact that you always know there's a solid chance you'll be popped off your cube, making anything but bking a risk.
- the fact that to get your Skylab to full you have to wait around half a month if you're on top of it.
-the fact that really what most noobs do is leave or troll and end up as outlaws, or the most common, just spending the rest of their life sending promerium to get a design from auction.

And as much as you can tell them to, most noobs don't go to forums to know how to do anything. I've seen so many players who are even semi-Ufe, and still quit and it's depressing. Unless you just your brain and know your stuff and are willing to invest a LOT of time and or money and are persistent, it's game over.

 

chers for letting us all know something that we already knew

 

Welcome. Just stating the facts, if you feel like adding go ahead.

 

This list is very complete and true and completely what has kept me pushing on to get stronger.

Another thing is lack of trying to make friends, or pushing away other players that try to help them out, leading them to more frustration because of the things you listed. You really can not enjoy this game without having some friends on it. If I dont' see some of my friends on when I log in, I typically won't be logged in more than an hour, but give me some friends and I can be on all day long...you know, until I have to work, or eat, or have family time, or not sure why we are forced to do this one, sleep.

 

Lol too true. I'm usually on until all my friends are off, and then it's just boring.
