Title: Top 10 Tips on Surviving cRPG: A Beginner's Guide to the Life of Peasantry
Post by: MrShine on July 15, 2014, 08:02:43 pm
Hello, I'm MrShine.  cRPG is a tough mod for players new to the Mount & Blade combat system, and the difficulty curve might scare away some people.  But have no fear!  Stick with it and before you know it you'll have spent hundreds of hours playing the mod. 

This video is intended to help give you some basic tips on how to approach your character, what you can expect, and perhaps a few useful tricks to help keep you from being that bloodstain on the battle field...for a little while at least.

Behold:

Great video and fun to watch :mrgreen: The parts where you try to make your voice sound deeper than it is are a bit weird :lol: But you did a good job: You cover all the important things without getting lost into boring details. I am sure the noobies will appreciate it :)

The only things I learned are: Ascalon is a filthy armor crutcher and MrShine doesn't use an adblocker and probably has a porno virus.

Nice video!

I think the problem we are having is that the new players don't access the forums, and can't find how to join a clan...

I see all these new players asking the same questions, how do I get gear, how do skills work, why can't I kill anyone?

It's funny you mention that because I was really tempted to pull a Joseph Porta (http://forum.melee.org/general-discussion/which-bitch-ass/) and put some questionable tabs at the top of my 'using the website' and 'STF' sections, but /effort.

These are the questions they have when they join the game in the very first time, after that they sure go and check the website & forum.

You are doing the Lord's work.

Lord chadz, that is. You are doing his work by making a tutorial to teach new players. This is vital to get those brand new players to stick around.

Very good guide you put together there.  Quite entertaining and very informative.

Feedback:
Would be cool to get this video in front of other warband players who don't play crpg

tinyurl.com/crpgcalc (messes up the redirect a bit if you have noscript). I'll be planning to add speed bonus and holds once I figure out how they work exactly.

Feedback:
  • San has an updated character calculator that has the updated WPF...I can't be arsed to find the link though (not on my normal computer).
  • Not sure what dexterity is (gottem)
  • There is an easy mode after your first gen.  Sell your loompoint, and become lancer cavalry.

Thanks!  I made an annotation about agility instead of dexterity...derp.

Thanks!  I updated the annotation within the video & also included a link in the description.
