Loading screen tips

Heyo,

The “motivational” quotes are great, but the loading screen is an ideal place to teach (new/newer) players about some game mechanics. Just in the last month I read 2 posts on reddit about people finding out you can have different marks for a weapon, after like 100 hours. And it wouldn’t surprise me if half of the playerbase doesn’t know what stuff like Power and Finesse does, and I do not blame them.

Some kind of ingame codex explaining all this stuff would be ideal, or even some mouse-over explanation like in Rogue Trader (golden standard of conveying such information, in my opinion), but I do realize this is not something you add in a few hours. Adding gameplay tips to the loading screen should be much more doable.

Some examples:

“You will dodge sideways range attacks if you sprint while having stamina”

“Almost every weapon has different marks, which makes the weapon behave differently”

“Unlock blessings with Mastery points, apply them to weapons at Hadron”

“Power increases the damage, stagger and cleave potential of a weapon”

A novel idea! However, giving the player useful information seems to be against the FS ethos :laughing:

It would be nice though.

Exactly! But console users can’t use mods, and people that use mods are probably not the ones that benefit from those tips most..
