Finally, once you have your dossier posted, connected to discord, received your welcome briefing in teamspeak, and downloaded the modpack, it is a requirement to contact an admin on discord in order to schedule your in-game orientation PRIOR to your first session with Coalition. An example of a request can be found here.
Please note that while the staff are happy to help at whatever time fits your schedule, you must contact a staff member about setting it up, AND nobody is ecstatic about doing them at 03:00 AM. Failure to do so, or requesting one immediately before or during the session, means you will not be able to play with us during the session. Current staff and specialist are available at the following times (subject to change):
*Attila ~ 5PM-12AM EST Weekdays, Anytime Sat-Sun *Philbilly ~ Anytime after 2pm EST weekdays, Anytime with notice Sat-Sun * *
You will not be available to play with everyone until your orientation is complete.
Why do we require orientation and what do we go over?
Simply put, We require orientation because it cuts down on the amount of questions that you need to ask in the middle of a live mission particularly if you are new to the game or the mods we use. Orientation times vary based on how experienced a person is with ACE, ACRE, and ARMA controls. Our main goal is to make sure you had no issues with your modpack install, familiarize you with these mods, introduce you to the ideology of Coalition itself, give suggestions for certain settings and controls, and show off some framework features you might not see in other groups.
If you are an experienced player we mainly focus on how things work within the group and do a quick run through of our checklist to make sure you know whats up.
If you are a new player we will take the time to answer any and all questions you have about anything that you feel you need to know to transition into ARMA easily. We will also offer suggestions on certain controls or settings to help streamline your experience in-game.
Some of the biggest things on our checklist include but are not limited to:
- ACE Interaction and Medical
- ACRE radio keys and how to change volume settings
- How to use the in-game Message Admin system
- What we expect of you if you become a full member
- Binding a few important miscellaneous controls
- Answering any and all questions you have
