I have no idea what I am doing

[jacobellinger]

just got the game and loaded the tutorial map. it says some things I need to do in the upper right but does not tell me how to do them. also I tried watching some tutorials and for some reason they could see roads even before they where built which would be nice for placing buildings down but I don't see my roads unless they are built first.

Have you ever played a strategy game in your life?

I mean, at the bottom you have a building menu - select things, place them on the map. Of course, you have to draw a road (there's no other way). There's also a big button at the bottom, to the left, next to the categories of buildings

What is the problem exactly?

you are rude and you did not answer anything and have not been helpful.

Answer WHAT? You didn't even write a question.

personally, I find the tutorial really bad, we are "dropped" on a map with the possibility of building everything,

most tutorials take you little by little through the range of possibilities to have a centralized idea of what is good to do

this game has a lot more possibilities than settlers, it really seems to be more of a management game than a conquering settler

Well it's most obvious what you should do. I don't thing this is the kind of game a person will be happy to play if it's a problem to figure out how to built a road and a woodcutter hut.
The tutorial is the "missions" in the upper right corner. Which buttons you need to click to built a road or building is self explained when hovering over the buttons at the bottom.

you're used to it, you're the best, we're stupid....

what is this delusion of grandeur??

the learning card is not a didactic card but a discovery card of possibilities in almost autonomy

for me we are far from the standards and that will not make it easier for anyone discovering this type of game for the first time

because yes there will be beginners.... because yes there will be beginners.... go-getters and those who go so far as to read the instructions even if it involves assembling 2 pieces of Lego

Then help me/us to understand what the problem is.

I'll ask again: Is this your first time playing strategy games? Do you know how such games work? Your post can be read as analogous to a shooter game that someone doesn't know how to run or which button is the jump button.

When I read through your post again, all I can make out is that you don't know how to place which buildings and where. These are things that don't require a tutorial because they are absolute basics. But I'm not being mean, because there may still be people who have never played anything like this. But then you have to be more specific.

I've already explained the basics in my post: there's a building menu at the bottom. This is sorted into different building types/categories, e.g. for collecting wood/stone, mining, food, etc. - To the right is a button that allows you to draw paths (double-click to confirm).

Do you need help with anything specific? Is there something you're not getting on with? Just tell us

Ah well, keep experimenting, that is half the fun with these games, and learn! That's the whole point with it :)

It is still early access, so they may add tutorials for players new to this genres before release.

On the other hand, I don't get it why people, who don't already know the genre are playing an early access game. I was waiting years for a new settlers game, then they delivered a lackluster one after many delays and here comes this game, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Currently the game have no tutorial , it is just a bunch of scenario with enemy modifying and you already unlock everything from the start .

Perhaps they will have a proper tutorial later with narrative and you slowly unlock stuffs .

I am in the same boat as the OP. I'm used to being spoon fed information from tutorials while being eased into games. We can figure it out and there's always youtube.
