One day at a kid who just bought this game without reading the manual

 

kid-*crys* Rancors just ate my units and I have nothing to attack with And all my vehicles are gone, this game stinks mom. Vader is in space with Palpatine, Damn those people on them forums boosting

mom- Dont cry at me, you wanted this game (looks at dad)

Dad- You wanted this game you stubborn kid, all you have to do is use your units to beat the objective

kid-But that stupid creature ate my military and my leader

dad-Read the forums I give up....(walks away)

(next day on forums)

Post: That stupid Rancor ate my leader, How do I get him back, How do I get him back ?! (100 cussing words)

reply: You kill a Rancor by getting a trooper and throwing a grenade into its mouth, its one of the Empire's best units, read your flippin manual you noob

2 hours later

kid- *crys again* My Deathstar blew up when a Star Destroyer smacked into it and a Wookie stole my home planet on me. This game is crap

a friend of the kid - Wookie took your planet ? Rofl what a noob you are, the only way they could take that over planet if you have no units on there.

kid-I did have units there, I saw them gathering resources

his friend - Thats the ai you idiot. No wonder you lost, you didn't build any units. Idiot.....

Fan forums for everything you need to know

lol your gonna ask me some noob ass questions when eaw comes out, and ima make fun of you like i would anyother noob, no exceptions

in your dreams

It obvious that none of us will actually read the manual when we get the game. We will install it straight away and play it by trial and error until we get very annoyed and throw our Computers out the window. Poor Computer

actually, i disagree there. i look over the book while the game is installing, just the basics at first. it's star wars and we've all played Rebellion, so i think we will know what to do. well i will for the most part, idk how you or polovnik will do though.

Everytime I install games I either read over the manual (if the game is what I wanted) or if it was something I downloaded or something I wanted but not very interesting or descriptive I just install and watch tv or walk around the house like i'm waiting for someone.

 

edit: rushed my post, also added sometimes I get so excited I hope in and just play and tick people off if i'm in that quick of a rush.

im going to be like fosh, and after losing to the computer on easy, because of losing battles i shouldve won, ill finally get how to play

I never Lose!! I always Win! I am FOSH JEDI2004, ALL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAHA ............ Anyways. I normally play games and play to win. I hardly ever read the manual but by playing the number of Demos I do i have a good Idea of how it will all work.

rofl, never lose ? Common you gotta lose at least 10 times or so

Nope. I never lose PERIOD!! ALL BOW BEFORE ME!!!

lmao, that was a great skit ghost. I'm kinda like ghost when i get a game i've really been lookin forward 2. i'll read the manuel on the way home or while it's installing, then i'll fool around on the easiest setting and play by trial and error till i understand it. I'm more of a try and learn kinda guy. but then i'll be lookin for someone to defeat in a humbling battle, where in i win, and sarcastily bow infront of fosh

Thats what I meant to Write.

 

 

ALL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME!!

 

ULTIMATE POSTER!!

Thats what we all meant to write lol.

very old topic, but it's funny. Thought I would bring it back up

Nope.  I never lose PERIOD!!  ALL BOW BEFORE ME!!!

 

beat u before

eh, who reads the manuel?  ;D

 

I just skim through it and look at the pictures while the game is installing. I learn by playing the tutorials. When I was installing EAW I was looking at that fold out card that said what was good against what, etc

Manuals only come in handy when it's a piece of crud game and are surfing throughout it to find the support e-mail address that gets checked every 2,000 years 

 

EDIT: Cheese, I like the second line on your sig.

Wow this is old. I semi-read the manual just to see what its about and then play. I also agree the 20,000 year part in email since by the time they email its an automated machine with no help at all and tells you where to go where you already went. I emailed namco and took me 5 days just to get an email with autmated messages which redirected me and was of no help.......bastards

Nine-year old kid in chat room: "I'm gonna play the empire they lyk roxxors!"

Kid: "Hah! My ships are so big they are coolor than your gay x-wings luk is a whiner roflmao"

Me: "Whatever." *activates mines*

Kid: "WTF how did my ships get beat you hax"

Me: "Whatever." *captures his ships and turns on him*

Kid: "Your a haxxor you're no fun this game is bad it's crap it's gay!" *leaves*

Moral: read the manual.

 

Some other goodies I found in the archives...

 

"Look! They're firing at us! Thye must be the enemy! return fire!"

"Uh sir, that's one of ours-"

"I don't care! They're shooting at us!"

"Uh sir, are those Buzz droids on our hull?"

"I don't care! They're th eenemy!"

"But sir-"

"I SAID OPEN FIRE!"
