Newbies, look here for 1v1 matches.

Postby Gexern » 21 Mar 2013, 14:28

Hi new players! I am very new as well!

To learn how to play multiplayer one need to play games and gain experience. And thankfully we have a helpfull and strong community whom are willing to help!

So, I am looking for a new player to play a constant 1v1 ranked games with, so that we are at the same level and hopefully can trade victories between us. And as well we can have more experienced players look at our replay and give us feedback and help. This way I and you get some training and learn our way around the game without getting matched with some higher ranked and more experienced player.

Other players may post their requests to find a partner here as well if they are new and want some training before being thrown out to the sharks!

So the idea is that you find someone to have regular games with, and you then create a game that the other one joins. Play a game, maybe look at the replay to see what the other play did what was wrong and good. And then play another game. And then another game. And then maybe find another newbie player. And then play a couple of games with that player. Then maybe ask some experienced player to take a look at a replay of a game you had where you are not quite sure the reason why you lost.

Looking forward to hear from you and play games!

I believe that such a topic is obsolete in FAF, as there is an automatch system. Sure, it will give you much better opponents for the first 5 matches or so, but then it will evaluate your rank pretty well and unbalanced matches are less likely to happen. Alternatively, you can host a 1v1 game and pick your opponents as they join, maybe even set it to unranked if you like...
Peace through superior firepower.

I was looking more for one player to play with regular, and the automatch may still put you against a player with 60 games only a low rank and still beat you sunder.

I would still be glad to show you a trick or two so you don't hit a brick wall when going into 1v1s, even though I am a noob myself, but I have a lot of games played.

Nah, this is a good idea, it's very different to grinding ranked games.

Agreed, plus you'll have a ready-made teammate for custom games.

I usually play 19:00 - 23:00 GMT +1. Sometimes earlier or later, but mainly around that time.
