Title: Bad Bruises
Post by: damonicos on March 08, 2015, 11:29:41 pm
A Noob Faction
For Noobs By Noobs

We are New(b) but we are proud. Though we currently do not participate in Town Control.
Our Focus is learning, teaching, and teamwork.
Together, the wastes aren't so ruthless.
We wish to help any in need of assistance, if via by simple advice over the radio, or another gun by your side on your journey.

We work together - For instance I may do a couple runs for chemical compounds and electronic parts, put it in storage, so that another member can go craft us some superstims later.
I wont take all the superstims. Leave at least 1 of any item so we know we are looking in the right place, and our pile is indeed low.
We all contribute and we will all have what we all need.

We do not attempt Town Control. Or do very much in the way of PvP, If you're looking for that you should seek another group.
That doesn't mean that we won't gather a group and go hunt Aligator and his henchmen down in boneyard now and then, when the need arises  ::)

How to Reach us
We Communicate Via channel 1613 - So if you are looking for us, or need some assistance, try us there.
Please don't ask us to help you play the game. Or where the keys are to my truck.  We're not here to give out freebies, Just to help you help yourself get better.

What YOU Need
-A Working Computer with Internet and FOnline: Reloaded Installed on your system (Must technically be owner of Fallout)
-The Will to Learn and Play a New Game called FOnline: Reloaded.
-Patience
-English - I'm sorry we aren't very bilingual yet and we often mistake poor english for low Intelligence..

We will pay for a Vent Server and use it from time to time to chat so a Mic would be Handy. Not a Requirement. Radio will suffice.

What we DO

Whatever dude. Whatever we want, we're playing a game! =D

We will often be crafting, or out hunting centaurs and other beasties for XP
We could be trading at local merchants or organizing one of our camps or bases.
Maybe we will be helping a couple new players loot in the boneyard
or perhaps we will be helping a couple new players respawn in the boneyard.
A common rule, even for Us, is Shoot first and ask questions later.
We try to have fun. We dont spam channels or shit in peoples eye sockets.. (i don't speak for all of bad bruises there  :-\)
And we have no comment on your mother if you ask us something, So no worries.

Hope to see you out there! On your feet!

-Damon

Haters go'n hate  :P

Allright, explain me how you want to teach noobs if there stay ,, for noobs by noobs,,. 
It's like my dream is become a giant but my dady is a hobbyt.  However, good luck guys.

I will explain,

Instead of telling new members what their stats need to be, step by step which is de-motivating, (oh you mean all my work leveling my char has been a waste and i get to start all over!? YAy!)  We conjure that Illusion that the wasteland isn't calculated down to a science. That you don't need to calculate your perks step by step in order to have fun and play the game.
Random things can happen. We can show you where to find perks, Who to sell too, Crafting techniques.
Most importantly we form a group.  New players teaching eachother what they know. So there is no God telling us what our perception needs to be at to be any use.

Not everyone gets their jollys from ruining another persons day.. some people rather make it.

@Napalm
Then break out the confetti my friend cause we've been helping strays for almost a month now.

Im not looking to be a Giant, But i'm lettin you know we're here.

Don't mind those guys, its just that the vast majority of new players to this game usually never log back in after a week even when they have help. But more factions are always good and noob factions that just teach people stuff are good too because they keep people in the game who would otherwise not know what to do and quit. Eventually they may even join up with some of the PvP factions. I've seen it happen many times. I know that's what happened with me. So good luck! And if you see me chilling in hub and need help with something feel free to ask.

NeverMind napalm dude, he's the bitch of the server! Check all over forum and you will see he is most hated

Good luck with your faction it's nice to see new people trying something and having fun with the game the way they like it :) like beer if you need with anything just ask

This was a sincere encouragement! I hope you be strong. I would like to see new faces coming in cities with full force. Good luck!

I agree with Beer (again). The more people, the better, no matter how they play, but even better if they help new players survive. The more players survive past 1 solid month, the more recruits can join big factions at some point. Or not. Either way, the more the better.

I've been seeing this group on and off in my travels within the past month or so.
While I prefer a more cold analytically approach to getting new players to do things we can all agree the more the better.

It at the end doesn't matter. If he stays he'll make a new char with better arrangements, if he leaves he'd probably have left anyway.

I wonder if Beer was one of the bluesuits I've helped in yonder times lol. If Beta or Meat Ring bells answer is probs yes.

ATM I support this group. While I won't be able to aid ATM if there's anything that the faction needs that I can provide why not right?

Lol no ive been playing a good bit longer than you if your forum account creation date is any indication. and i have no idea what beta or meat are. I was mainly given help from just a few people. One guy in a noob faction like this which gave me a feel for the game and kept me from ragequiting, and then a couple other guys in a pvp faction who taught me to pvp once I wanted to start doing that.

Nah this forum account is down right new compared to how long I've been here. lol.
Just liked the name, forgot my passes on other accounts, and yep.

This is exactly our approach.  As I see a high percent of bluesuits quitting, and I Love this game, I strive to make the game more enjoyable and accessible to new players. So they don't feel so alone right off the bat, and they get a good idea of the landscape.
So as was said, They will either make new builds when they want to PvP, or they will quit anyways. Many play just to play, and don't even plan on PvPing so we are here for them as well.

@Helpbot
I have worked with Meat a few times. He has helped out our group some.
We arent Big, but we are here. Thank you for your support Bot. I have seen you around as well and I most definitely support your cause as well. If in anyway Bad Bruises can assist, Let me know!

Yes For Noobs by Noobs.. Thats just my way of saying we Don't know everything, and we can be taught.
But I have done my research, I get the just of Character building. I just have more fun Building Networks and Infrastructure, and Supporting others, than PvP (for now..  ;))

"You lie initiate!" (Rhombus, fallout 1)

Seriously, am I the only one around smelling nasty sarcasm instead of "sincere encouragement"?

It's good to have fresh players around. I hope you will stay and learn as I did. Start noob, craft, farm, do some quests, make builds like in 2238 (failed ofc) and improve yourself. After some time, when you will be mastering pve, you'll see that pvp is a natural evolution. And we will be ready for you  ;).
Good luck, we'll meet again, for sure.

Best way to learn this game is play and loose, then teach something from your mistake, no need to be leaded by a veteran who will rage at you cause you noob and bother you.

So good luck and remember you will loose a lot but you have to continue until you got enought experience and no ragequit the game !

Agree with these two.

The game is simply more fun with people to play with, especially if you're brand new (or pretty old).

Going it alone as a new player... well, it sucks balls.  I did it for weeks when I first started, and the game became infinitely better when I found people to play with.

yeah Bad Bruises , I would say over the last month and a bit we've progressed pretty decently for some noobs trying to help out other noobs . But for us to go all out PvP is just realistically just dumb at this point in time , in the future Ya we plan on pvping who doesn't lol . So why not go with the whole, play together, learn together , kill little bitches together lol
