What to do when you're new?
alexor:
So I've become a member of the Blockland community. Yay!
...
Err, now what?
Well, now that I'm finally here, I'm not really sure what to do next! Being rather inexperienced, I can't play most servers without getting my butt handed to me due to unfamiliarity with the game and the controls. Building seems fun, but I'll need a lot of practice to get good at it. Basically, what I'm asking here is this: Now that I've bought the game, is there anything I should be sure to try? I've went through the tutorial, but I'm still fairly confused about how the game works. Is there a new user guide around that can point me in a good direction?
Or better yet, a tourist's guide to Blockland: 10 things you've got to try doing when you're here!
DontCare4Free:
There isn't a comprehensive guide as far as I'm aware. Would you mind specifying, more detailed, what it is you're confused about?
popman98:
Just join diffrent servers, go to a TDM and get better with the controls about moving around, go to a freebuild and get better with building controls.
Also don't forget to screw around and have fun!
SWAT One:
Well I'm glad to see that you took your time to learn the ropes than diving in like a total idiot. You are wise.
Basically, try to stay on-topic and post intelligently.
Pay attention to other people's posts and avoid being hypocritical.
Do not spam emotes.
Have good grammar and spelling.
Ask questions in the way you have posted here. You did a good job.
You can look through a few video tutorials found in places on the forums or view the gallery or help topics for tips.
Do not get involved in the Version 21 updates since you just joined.
Otherwise, have a nice stay and enjoy Blockland!
Custard:
Because it's a sandbox game, there's lots of things you can do.
-You could join servers and meet new friends
-You could join servers and battle against people in combat
-Or you could join servers to build, as the game implies.
Just start looking around. You'll find it interesting.
