Tutorials - Possible Bug?

from Sins Forums
I only had about 30 minutes to play last night so I decided to try the tutorials just to get an idea of the changes since Beta. I started the first tutorial, "Basic" I think it was.

The game started with me having no combat ships, one worker ship, a light shipyard, and the system under attack by one standard frigate and one siege frigate NPC.

I cranked out a few standard frigates and they started working on the invaders, but no damage was being done to any ship or structure. This went on for a while.

The problem is - the entire time, from start to the time I gave up about 15 minutes after start, not one instruction from the game, either in writing or audible, was issued. I thought it might have been something I did so I tried it again with the same result.

Is that how the tuturial is supposed to work?

Overall, looks good guys. Nice work. I look forward to this weekend when I can play a little more in depth.

The tutorial wouldn't work for me first time either, just gave me the galaxy map and no guidence. Quiting back to the main menu and starting it again seemed to fix it.

I found a fix for it, just exit, enter the second tutorial, exit from that, and then re-enter the first and it should work.

I had the same problem, and no amount of entering/exiting from other tutorials made any difference.

Try running the game at 1024x768 resolution. The problem's been fixed internally and will be released as a hotfix.

A similar problem was happening to me, but only on the first tutorial. It started working after I created a new 'player setup'.
