    Unless you want an absolutely new player to jump into an NS game without knowing the fundamental basics, he has to play combat to learn a bit about them first.

    Hi there StGeorge. Good to have you onboard in the NS community <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    And if you are new to ns completely I would advice you indeed to first play on some classic server to get the hang of ns and all its features since combat is very fast pasted action.

    RaVE: Combat doesn't give the feel of NS because it's nothing like NS.
    You wanna learn to play NS? Then I advise you start on a NS server like most of us lot did.
    It's the best way tbh.

    LoL, I was being sarcastic, but I think it would work quite well.
    Kouji San that cookie looks yummy.

    And combat is supposedly for newbies. Classic is for when they have learnt the basics.

    BTW, who limited the amout of smileys allowed in this post?

    At least if he's going to play aliens he pretty much has to test it out in combat because

    1) It's not as painful as mistakes are pretty much more forgivable than in classic
    2) No complicated resource system, commanders, buildings, etc.
    3) Eases the hard learming curve in NS (sort of)

    If he knows the fundamentals of the alien lifeforms and their roles, <b>then</b> he should play classic.

    Trust me, you wo't want a new player to just save up, go Onos, and get killed 10 seconds later due to the 'I'm big and invincible' mindset it puts you into.

    EDIT : Left out a point.

    Welcome to the party.

    I hope you are ready for death, destruction, and all-round in-general not nice creatures of unknown origin.

    No doubt about it, you WILL die. When and where is down to whether you do what you are told, or do your own thing.

    Have A Nice Day.

    Compare...

    Onos noisily splashes through the shallows, clumisly mounts (not like that!) the back of the boat, and...

    OR
