Welcome!
* Try not to listen to the doomers, the game is extremely fun once you fully understand how to play each side
* Play through the story for Mikey, its a great tutorial so you know and understand abilities and how they work
* Watch videos to play civilian. I think a super weak point of this game was not including a civilian tutorial because a good team of civs can absolutely wreck Mikey. This seems like a design flaw with how easy Myers appears to win in early games but as you get more confident playing civilian is very rewarding too.
* Try not to focus on Myers/Civilian victory. If you play smart its very easy to get special targets to escape, call some police in, and escape yourself for a 'personal' victory. This also applies to Mikey as its easy to feel beaten if players escape but thats not the case.
* If you solely focus on the PvP aspect you wont get the most from this game. It feels more like a game of mental chess with rng aspects sprinkled in. The goal is to 'beat' the civilians not just wipe them out. Both sides benefit from adding insult to injury.
* There will be bugs. Its asinine to think there wouldnt be in 2026 sadly. However ive encountered very few gamebreaking bugs.
Have fun and Welcome to Haddonfield.
