I re-subbed five minutes ago only to find out that now unlike the last time I returned and created a new character, I have to take all of the <insert your choice of profanity here> tutorials? The last time I only had to take the flight test. Having to go through all the tutorials is <insert profanity> for someone creating a new character.

Needless to say, until this is resolved, my subscription is once again canceled.

Edit: It seems absurd to me that an account with over 78 days of playing time in would be required to run through the tutorials for every new character. And this attitude is being very charitable considering I accept that I will still have to grind that new character up to usable licenses and standings- which sadly has been about the most interesting activity for each of my resurrections.

Kudos for determination Fluffy.
I said the same thing 3+ years ago when they failed on their promises to fix faction system.
I came back after 3+ years and, guess what, the same pile of manure they call faction system is still here. I should have cancelled my sub right away but I did not because i once again fell for Incarnates promise that new faction system is just a few weeks away. Few weeks turned to almost a full year without any changes in sight.
Guess I have no choice but to cancel my sub again and give them more time, at least till 2014.

You'll only be satisfied when you get a pony, Bojan.

Ok. I'll admit I was an overreacting ass about this since it took less than 5 minutes to click continue repeatedly and get past the early tutorials. That does not make this any less of a design flaw.

I seem to dislike you ladron, even though I dunno who the hell you are, but I agree with that post.

Errm, i'm ntli, so yeah.

Doesn't changing run_tutorial to -1 under your characters name in the INI work anymore?

only on the initial ship buying mission. You still have to complete the first three training missions so you can leave the training sector.

If you're referring to the initial 'ship purchase' turorial, the client doesn't know that you've played a lot before. It takes like 15 seconds to go through that.

If you're referring to the mission tutorials, it doesn't know you have played before, and it was geared for new players and players that haven't played for a long time, forgetting how to play. I know it's not for everyone, but the mission tutorials take like 2-5 minutes to go through. It's not perfect, but we believe it's better than nothing.

In retrospect, I think you are correct with the current setup. It doesn't take long at all to go through those missions- and you can speed through them once launched by simply quickly hitting next. As I said, I was an over reacting ass on this one. Sorries :(
