Sorry about the poor choice of file hosts in my first post. I'll edit with a link to the Google doc version Idzuna posted. (Thanks for that, BTW.)I considered just adding this content to the MWO wiki, but decided against it, pretty much for the reasons Idzuna gave. Wikis work like an encyclopedia, a source of reference you can use when you are looking for something specific. This primer is intended to give people a walkthrough of the important information related to MWO without getting bogged down in details. Also, for people who have no idea where to start, this is their starting point.Maintaining the doc in its current form is a piece of cake. I put together the original in about 8-10 hours, and that includes the time I spent reading and collating information from dev blogs, Q & As, etc. That's not to say maintaining it in a different form wouldn't be just as easy, I just don't want anyone thinking that I'm making this harder on myself than I need to. I'm not.That being said, having some chocolate in the peanut butter here probably isn't a bad idea. What I would really like, more than anything, is for this content to be available and readily accessible to anyone who needs it, whether they are looking for it here on the MWO forums, on the MWO wiki, or even somewhere else. I suspect there is a way that, with a minimum of effort, we can make that happen.

Edit: Ok finished. I had to look up some abbreviations to clarify what you meant. I would like to see more on Startup/Shutdown and what is available while Shutdown.



I wondered if may have used too many acronyms. They are all common acronyms for BT/MW players, but maybe I should include an acronym glossary at the end?
