A noob is going to quit when.....

I think at this point we all agree that the lack of activities in the beginning is what really drive the players away.

I don't agree with that at all. I feel there is plenty to do; new players just don't know why they want to do those things yet.

And that is precisely my point. Isn't it equal to lack of activity for them?

My co-worker said he could try out Salem for the sake of science. If he does, I'll post here what his thoughts were.

A noob is going to quit when.....
- first thing he sees is a pile of dead diseased bodies. Currently Boston looks like some crappy private server
- he gets KOed during swimming / after a bite of first snake
- he looks at the available inspiration points and recovery rate (it's TOO LOW)
- Wilderness guide shows the same spots for everybody. shouldn't it be really random?

I know the first half of your inspiration recovers faster, but what if the very first 1000 or something recovered at a much faster rate, would it only be a boost when you are a newbie?

Would punch a person in the face IRL if someone would quit over that.

Chill, I got dis

Even when we are talking about noobs that quit is too much to bear.
Last 2 points I kinda somewhat agree...

i tottaly agree on that, Id accepted if thos whas 5 minut ingame character bodies not 5 second and quit characters.

i hope there will be some new spawn 4r new players like graveyard maby? telling them the can DIE in this game good luck your onyour own now ^^ ! and not in a middle of a town.

EDIT: opinion of my freind asked about ded bodies in spawn point in some game:

Mother or father behind his son plaing: OMG! dead bodies, You cant play this game son. Lets search something with less death.
