* Pre-flight check & assistance | |||
** Double-check fits when new players join to ensure nobody brings the wrong setup. Use our [[homefront operation]] wiki to doublecheck on EWAR, damage types & weaknesses. | |||
** Encourage experienced pilots to assist the FC (e.g., finding new HF sites). Ask openly if anyone wants to support with navigation. | |||
* | * Assessing Player Experience | ||
* | ** Ask if players have flown '''Homefronts''' or '''Raids''' before. This helps gauge how much detail you need to cover. Some may still need to learn very basic concepts like: | ||
*** Navigating and using the overview correctly | |||
*** Finding acceleration gates | |||
*** Avoiding autopilot | |||
* Communication | |||
** Strongly encourage everyone to join comms — many ship losses happen due to poor communication. | |||
* | * Ship & Role Guidance | ||
** | ** First-time fleet members should generally fly easy roles like the '''DPS Caracals for raid fleets.''' | ||
** | ** Maintain a clear fleet hierarchy and manage squads effectively. | ||
** | *** Track who is in which role | ||
*** Track who is in the queue | |||
* Fleet Management & MOTD | |||
** Use a clear '''MOTD''' to save time and reduce repeat questions. | |||
* | * Setting Boundaries | ||
** Define limits for yourself: e.g., “I’ll run X amount of sites” or “I’ll run for 2 hours.” | |||
** Communicate this clearly to your fleet members. | |||
** If you’re ending soon, stop accepting people into the queue unless there’s another FC ready to take over. | |||
* Fleet ettiquette | |||
** New players are encouraged to familiarize themselves with our homefront etiquette. Doing so not only prevents wasting others’ time—such as dropping a fleet without prior notice—but also enhances our corporation’s reputation with outsiders who encounter one of our homefront fleets. | |||
