I just wing it. I don't like reading about a game before hand. I find it refreshing to stumble and discover things along the way. Even if I mess up a char build, it'll be a fun experience to talk about later on.

The very first thing I do after logging into a new MMO is search Google for every single hack/exploit/cheat/code that I can possibly find for the game and test them all out! :twisted: :twisted:

Kidding. Really I just explore the menus, interface, familiarize myself with some of the controls, and run around talking to different NPCs to see where things are. Then I'll pick up a quest if I find one, or just run out killing stuff and go on from there.

Also, nothing pisses me off more than to not know where 1 single npc is located, nor their names, or their titles. So I have no choice but to be to total newb and either wonder until I get sick of the game or ask questions and hope that im either answered, or not mocked for my newbness.

Also, I check to see if inventory is the letter "I" or "B" then I realize what the general layout will be for the keymapping. But I always forget anyways and pound the wrong button to bring up my inv.

Sign up with a test account, download client (if needed), install client, log in, create newb characters, test them. After that if I like the game I create a new account, if I don't like it I just dump the old account and un-install the game.

First play to level 10 or so in every class and decide which one I like.

Then I look for guides on the chosen class.

agreed.

firstly i youtube it too see if its good
then i go and look for any guides or something to see builds and that .. do my research and find out what char does what basically and youtube that

i prefer to play a char i love looking at
(blader came out a bad choice)

then i look more on there website about high lvl stuff to see what i will eventually look like.

choose char and build there and then.
download the game.
install the game.

then forget what ive read up about and let it go all tits up around me as i screw my build up
(i told u blader was a bad choice)

The first thing is to figure out how to move around and find the help window, then start looking around.
Then figure out what u can do with all those npcs and start leveling and doing quests.

Played many of them:
Perfect World, at first it was cofusing but i got how to play it and got borred. When i played that i was so borred that i always managed to sleep on my keyboard.
R.O.H.A.N. Pile of ****.
Alrchlord Pile of ****.
Lineage 2 omg omg lolol even sro is better than L2
World Of Warcraft well played only a little in privates wasn't interesting
Requiem: Bloodymare, at first i was borred but then i found out that it is quite good game if you like to "slay" off arms, legs, ribs, budun-kudduns...
First thing that you do is doing tutorial quests to know better about the game..
Those games that i've played was way too boring for me to play so i quit. And yet never regret about it :DDD
I believe some of people "getting hooked" by first impression and some not. You have to choose carefully your new friend called addiction :)))

What I do when I start a new MMO game? First, I take my Joymax Punching Bag Slave, tell him all the things he did wrong in iSRO; and show him that other games like Aion Online are decent role models on how he should manage his game, and if he doesn't understand; he gets beat down like the bitch he is.




Joking of course lol. Seriously I just get a feel for the game, skills and quests.

I go outside and check the attack animation and/or time intervals of it from start to finish, once i get bored outside or decide to finally get a hold of more controls and what not (if i still haven't figured out the basics from grinding).
