Thanks for getting back to tutorial related...
The bottom line is that to create an interactive tutorial that covers even a portion of the items mentioned in this stream, and to produce adequate AI would be months of work (better spent on other things), would be out of date before it came out, and be a constant maintenance nightmare sucking up programmer, designer and quality control resources.
Video is the only way to go with a moving target like this. (along with better in-game presentation/access to those videos... )
you would get much more bang out of an official wiki rather than a video. All the little ins and outs of CW would drag a video out beyond most attention spans and make it hard to fact find.
What do I mean?
-what are planet chits
-what does destroying the MFB do in counter attack
-how do I tell if I am attacking or defending
-how do I tell what map I am fighting on
-how do I tell if I am winning or losing a planet.
-how to use the planet finder to get a game
-what happens if I attack a planet at 100% progress
-why cant I queue up for a match? (then talk about ceasefire)
-can I leave CW matches early if I am dead and play a new one?
-how many turret drop queues can happen simultaneously on the same planet?
-what happens if I kill people from my old faction?
-unit coffers
and that is probably just scratching the surface
I still see people rushing the MFB like they will single handedly win the game and there is just no place for them to even go to get up to speed
I had big plans to make a comprehensive CW guide myself but I just dont have the time and perhaps the motivation
