unfortunately, rookies in this RPG are all the same. they have teh same character descriptions, they have the same stories, and they always do the same thing when they first enter: ask for help from by putting themselves in a situation they cant get out of.
we made this forum to help players understand what to do.
first of all, have some variance when creating your character. typically people have male characters that wear all black leather and have black trechcoats and have big, shiny, new Desert Eagles. they usually carry a sword too. i realize that if this is the style of the character, then i cant really complain. but just about every character in the RPG has a trenchcoat, desert eagle, and sword. Gabe, Leo, and Haulpschalter are just a few that i can think of at the moment. Seriously, your characters stand out like hell in a crowd or basically anywhere. dont expect to sneak into a base looking like Neo, it wont happen.
most of the time rookies allways get into deep shit and ask for help, mainly because they start out as rogue soldiers and have nowhere to go. Look, it may seem "cool" to be some "badass" and not have to listen to anybody, being totally independant, but thats actually the last thing you should do. You will have no income, you will have to pay for everything including repairs to your suit (and that could be costly) and you will almost never get into a fight. On the rare occasion that you do, both sides of the battle will think you are the enemy, and thats not good. my advice here is: join some organization. it doesnt matter which side, especially since both sides are run off of their Ideals, and rookie players seriously couldnt give a damn.
Join a side and see who commands you. then get your orders to kick ass and do so. its that simple. Who knows, maybe the leader wont care what you do and just let you go on your own battles.
Although it may not seem like it, their is always something going on. sometimes its just planning for later events, and unless your "in" you wont hear about it. But whenever a fight or bounty takes place, be sure to go to it.
An another thing, dont team up with another rogue if your allready one. that doesnt help SHIT. Its the blind leading the blind. You are both in the same boat, and neither one has the power to get out of it. join an org and you'll have a team to help you, plus if your suit is destroyed, then you can get a new one, something a rogue never accomplished.
