Tips for new players


JonathanCP

Recommended Posts

1) Taken directly from Dulfy's new player guide

"There is an important option you should turn on before viewing this tab. Use Esc to access your preferences menu and then go to Starfighter section. Under Tooltips, make sure Show Detailed Star Fighter Weapon Tooltips is checked. This will allow you to get detailed info on weapons. "

 

2) Read Dulfy.net guides on GSF

 

3) Not turning fast enough?

 

-Remember that scouts turn faster than Strikers.

-Pitch is faster than yaw. THIS LAST SENTENCE IS VERY IMPORTANT. If you do not understand what pitch and yaw is, Google it. That makes "Rolling" quite important.

There are upgrades you can buy to make turning faster

If you slow down your ship (using "S"), you turn faster than if you are full throttle ("W")

 

4) Not sure about sensor range and dampening? Enemies not showing on your UI? What is going on??!?

 

Read this thread:

But take the numbers cautiously! They are taken from PTS, and not necessarily uptodate.

Keep in mind that there is also "sensor focus range" that will make your sensor range longer (still unsure how it works)

 

 

Feel free to continue this thread with your own tips!!
