Default Re: Recruting new players - Mission Impossible?

I have introduced Dom II for my real friends and even invited some of them to bring their comp to LANs and test the game. My real-life friends played one game and then they said that they will never play Dom again. Nothing against that, they just don't find the game interesting enough.

Then I introduced Dom II to few of my IRC friends and they played many demo games and said that it's a good game. They were hell confused of everything and asked thousands of questions, i pointed out that they should read FAQs and manuals. Then they went quiet continued playing their counter-strikes etc.

Dom is hard game to catch on, game itself doesn't contain any help information, except turn tips. FAQs and manuals are hard to find and forum is very strange. I remember when i first time came on the forum i read maybe 20 postings and didn't understand anything. I read all threads from up to down and I was very confused.

I would really appreciate that there would be some info that the forum is "upside-down"
