Hey Guys

Coming over from battlefield. Is there a new player guide somewhere that'll get me up to speed and were do I find my steamID?

There's some sort of manual here:

Hope it helps you. Besides, stick to the TG server, it will be easier for you to learn the game here.

About your SteamID, type "status" in your console while connected to a server. You can bring up your console with the key above TAB.

BTW, I really recommend you to join the HLTV every now and again, spectating good players will really help you out, specially for alien lifeforms.

you can find your steamid by connecting to a server and typing "status" in the console. You can find some of the basics for ns in the community manual:

some of this may not be up to date.

We also have various rules and guides and whatnot on the tactical wiki

I hope you enjoy your stay here

Just join the server and identify yourself as a newbie. We'd be happy to show you the ropes.

QFT. You may want to add [I'm new] to the end of your name so you don't have to keep telling us.

++new players with sweet sigs ( stick with your squad. you'll live longer

)

Yes, definitely identify yourself as a newbie. And don't be discouraged if people get angry or yell at you; even on TG.

I keep trying to get my roommate to play, but he refuses after being heckled for not knowing where to go, etc. This even happened here on TG (wether it was from regular players or not, I'm not sure).

Bottom line, you may get the impression that NS player's are elitist, but most of the TG regs are pretty good about teaching you the ropes and such.

See ya on the server!

if you guys abuse john, i'll personally knock all of you around once i finish my NS hiatus. glad to see that people are coming over to NS from bf2 though, perhaps some of our more "dedicated" NS members oughtta try the reverse. Always room for new faces in every part of the community (plus I know that half of you never leave the NS forum

).

**Wyzcrak** · 05-22-2007, 10:32 PM

There's ample precedent of NS players (including SMs) branching successfully into other TG games (and vice versa, of course).

I know, but I want MORE! (and by more, I mean I want micro to start playing PR so I can snipe him.

)
