@kbls I think your statements are a great example as to why the the tutorial level should be made a priority. I've been seeing more new people on the servers lately and they unfortunately just have no concept how to play and in the match it's hard to take the time to teach people what an MCT is, that one can over take both vechicles, that most weapons have alternate fire etc.
Hell even if it was something text based that came up as a prompt when you loaded the game "is this your first time playing?", Then it goes over the basics.
To be fair I think even the original renegade did a poor job of explaining itself.
I'd be happy to write up a draft if any devs think a text based tutorial with photos could be a good quick fix vs a tutorial level.
