This doesn't cover gameplay much, but this will actually get them started and point them in the right directions.

This guide seems pretty useful for getting them started. Is there any way you can make this link more obvious and accessible to new players so that they can find it without having to search around? Maybe you could add a setting to GCQL that automatically directs you to that page that you can disable in the settings....

The starter guide should be the first page to be presented to new players. Very few people like to be treated as machine and digest technical manual. I was very close to drift my attention away from DS, thanks for your direction I will give DS another try.




This is kind of alarming?

I tried to help a german player lately who was also lost.
I hope this game does not lose too much players this way..

Bundleing things up would be great and a list of ingame Commands should be listed somewhere too, otherwise you will have to go Esc (not F1) and go to "Keyboard" to see that list first time ever.

theres a lot of stuff out there for newbies, but it isnt well bundled or presented on first login. thatd be an easy fix, putting something on the homepage?

we could really use with a tutorial though. there used to be that scripted tutorial you ran on your own computer, but it wasnt very good, and then i hear it exploded.
