Load Screen Tips

Postby Aertes » Tue 06 May, 2014 4:15 pm

How bad would it be to have tips shown in Elite's loading screens?. There's plenty of new units and abilities. I know we have the codex page to check it all, but it could be cool to add tip texts like in the original game.

It might be, but since people who contribute to the mod have such a workload already it seems a little harsh to have new and updated tips all of the time. This isn't their job, it is their free time. Besides, that is what the casts are for, I learned how to play Elite through watching hundreds of replays. It might help, but ultimately is unnecessary.

That's what we are for, aren't we?. We as players could submit our tips so they only have to choose the ones they find viable.

But how is this going to be regulated? How many will be sending tips? How many will Caeltos have to sift through to find the perfect one? Even then so many need to be altered because they show the wrong information. It takes more than you might think.

New tips were planned ages ago but never got around to it.
