Starting Out - New Players FAQ

[deepspace8472]

Hello New Players,
If you have a Question you may have about the Sim, how it functions, or maybe where to start, ask them here, and I'm sure one of the experienced players will respond soon.

Generally a New Player should...

1. Post their desired Position/Role in the Available Positions Board.

2. Begin Role Playing - Report in to your Department Head.

3. Report into the Sickbay for your Physical

4. Begin Roleplaying - You should probably start out Role Playing in your Department Board (EG. Engineering, Science Labs) and get to know your co-workers. After you've become familiarized with how we do things on Phoenix, you can start posting on the Mission Board. This is where the real Stories/Episodes are held.

5. It's also recommended you write a biography for your character. They can be posted in the Crew Manifest Board.


Don't worry about making mistakes. If you do, the Senior Officers will bend over backwards to correct it. Before too long, you'll become a full-blown member of the USS Phoenix Community

Have Fun!

Conor is very correct. Just remember that choosing a position is very important becuase you don`t want to get stuck with a job that you don`t like.

[deepspace8472]

Not only that, but a job that you don't know very much about. If you can't figure out how to put a certain type of character into an everyday plot, it's probably a bad choice. You'll end up excluding yourself from the game.
