Target practice

[lolpwned23]

Well, many new players,and possibly some veterans, woul like to practice.

So I think there should be a small arena filled with targets of moving dummys,

There should also be a tutorial map for newcomers. In this map it explains how to use each item.

I think this will help improve the game tremendously.


Please post your side of the discusion

sounds like a place where i can test my new ironsights/reticles easily.
I'm still working on making better sights.

Well it's the best chance for you to learn how to shoot back then, and quickly.

The point is that I have never seen more than 1 good player at a time, so if you want to slaughter deuces by the hundreds that is the place to go. You can literally just walk between the spawns and kill everyone in the way and get +100 kills an hour. Barring you encountering that 1 good player that is.

That is false. As far as I know, probably half the ppl on Goon Haven are noobs or just builders, but the other half are usually above average players or good players. I usually play on Goon Haven 1, and given the complete map balance that is given to both teams, it proves a very level playing field. And also, it's not that hard for even a noob to point and shoot, so if you rush into their base someone will notice and go for you. And although someone might be a good player, if their team's performance is hampered by the other team, often they will not live up to their skill as they usually do otherwise.

I have to disagree - to me GH is the definition of average. I just played a game there, and 10 people on each team had <10 kills. But hey I'm not silly, I can't judge people on their killcount alone, maybe that just joined and got 10 kills in as many seconds! So after a 10 minutes or so there was only 3 people who had gained more than 10 kills. Honestly it is kind of pathetic to me. Even the guy with 100 kills only gained 5 kills in the time it took me to get to 50. His ratio was only 2.65...
Only 1 player had >4 KDR.

Anyone who played just then, yes there was a few guys from my clan who had >100 and way higher KDR than that, but it is kind of unfair to count them.

Why do soldiers bother with target practice? One learns best by hitting real people.

[Build]

Seems like this would take more time and work then it would be worth at the moment. You might try suggesting a type of tutorial map when the full game comes out though.

Not really needed, you can learn faster on the battlefield.
