[UI] Beginner's gate

So the little guys always end up sighing and groaning when they find out how hard it is to open up a Gate. What if we had a special gate open it lower level players to do that helped them test the waters. Also, instead of the gate requiring uri to open it, it used credits instead. This gate would be level restricted like invasion gate, only _ to _ level can do this gate. Thoughts?

 

It would be a one time event if that happens. Or you can D.O. the Birthdate Gate that comes in Dec.

 

Or they could set it as one of the first missions that only comes available at say lvl 10 and you enter from x-1 map. Only lower map, and x-8 map npc's.

Also to open it, you should have to pickup a certain number of ore first, none from cargo boxes, so they get the feel of picking up pally.

 

i like that idea with the picking up certain numbers of ore.

 

Not a bad idea at all it's the fun factor coming in to play and a gate just for new players sounds like fun 1+
It might keep new players around longer as the missions give out so much ex. getting to lv 10 is far too easy

 

Or they could put in the effort to build an actual gate. Besides that there's the cold wave gate easy they could do or the bday gate. Two FREE well rewarding gates.

 

While they are relatively easy but new players start today, and the birthday gate, or what ever they call it this year, comes out in December.

Getting to level 10 is pretty easy, but if you are being blasted picking up the, say 1500 ore, to build said gate could prove to be quite the challenge.

 

Did you guys forget that the last 2 years there were no B-Day gates or Cold Wave gates? DO decided to hand out Hades Gates instead. Those aren't so doable for noobs. Maybe this year they'll bring back those 2 gates, but don't hold your breath.

 

Cold wave gate was last year, but you are right about one thing, its not that doable for a noob either. The boss on the last wave is a "beast." Sorry best description I can give without a ban...

 

Yep, brain fart on my part, I forgot about that. Still no B-Day gates for noobs.

 

Bday gate is incredibly easy. Any noob can do it. Cold wave is easy too, circle, circle circle kami if you have it. Also we're talking about the present are we not? SO why does it matter if there wasn't free gates for noobs?

 

If you have B.Date, it better in Dec - lol

 

The only free reference was for the b-day gate and the cold wave gates. In the mean time a beginner gate so players get a crash course in how a gate would work before they can get their first ABY gate open would open eyes to the concept.

 

We actually do have a beginner gate given as part of the tutorial, called Devolarian Invasion

 

And that is a gate?

 

Not a gate that can be built, but it is a tutorial gate, built very similar to ours, only a lot shorter. The final boss is a Devolarium with no shields and -50% HP. Gate rewards are like 300 RSB-75, 2 weeks of premium, 5,000 uridium, bunch of other starter garbage.

 

Oh, you are referring to the tutorial itself.... Not really the same as new players just try to fly through it without understanding what is going on.

For this we refer to the OP post...

Now it is not that there be a free gate, it is that there be something that shows the players the basic steps to building a gate early on so when they are building the "real" gates, they know what to expect. Only there would not really be any spins but there would be plenty of collecting, real collecting not gathering cargo box ore. Then they could get a feel for what you may do in a real gate. New players don't have the power to tackle an A gate even when they can start doing pally. This would give them an idea of what kind of pressure they have to look forward to.

 

Note: The thread will be re-opened only if the OP requests for it.

Enjoy the game.
