One idea, why don't we start from the very beginning with crafting tables and stuff. It's always annoyed me that Minecraft has no tutorial.
- I can be reached as ducky215 on minecraft forums -

sounds good
but maybe we can make a special
sinlgeplayer tutorial option in the main menu of where you can choose wich part you want to learn
from chopping wood
to building nuclear reactors

i do think thats one hell of a idea
and if some people make a redstoney adventure map for each
it wouldnt be to hard does that sound good

Why make a whole adventure map and stuff when you could just read it somewhere? I guess you guys have been over that, but I've always found a well-maintained wiki to be much more useful than any tutorial video/exercise/whatever. The Minecraft Wiki is good like that already. It has lots of information about everything in the game, and I don't think I've ever had a question about something that I couldn't find the answer to there. It already has lots of 'Surviving Your First Night' type stuff. We would be better-served by doing our best to ensure that the Futurecraft Wiki is kept up as well as theirs.

Video for when you are jumping in head-first, wiki for when you are comfortable with the mod.
That's always worked best for me. Though some of the youtube personalities have a tendency to drag things out.

We can have ALL of the tutorials! In-game with academies, single player starter tutorials, videos, wikis, etc.

well... ive been a commentator off and on for three years now and would be more than happy to make tutorial vids however, as discussed before: nobody will watch them. players should learn from experience. (see topic info)

it wouldnt be to hard to make them all is what i sayd

just have the city on the server

and have a extra option in the mainmenu
where diffrent subjects are put in
with a tutorial video
and a/some training map[s]

so people could choose what they want

this wouldnt be hard to make
and everyone could help building these things
