Downtown

In the bustling centre of downtown, you find yourselves only with the bare necessities. Proceed from being a tramp to a feared or glorified person.

Skills:
Firstly concerning the level of your skill, it progresses from:
Poor - Basic - Average - Good - Intermediate - Advanced - Elite
When you train a skill, you do not necessary immediately progress to next skill level.
You can learn virtually any realistic skill from doing appropiate things. E.g. Go gym on running machine - Trains Speed or Read Books on Engineering to increase engineering.

Examples skills aside from the basic strength, speed, endurance.
Engineering, can build and fix things and hot wire cars.
Recon - Accuracy, stealth and sight increases. Train this by practicing stalking people or other players :O and what not.
If you train a skill not listed or which isn't self explanatory i'll write what it enables you to do.

Weapons, Clothes/Armour:
Have to buy these from shops or salvage.
Clothes generally do not give any protective/physical bonus, however they add to your fame which makes it easier to interact with NPCs and recruit to your squad.
Armour, wear this when your in a firefight. So make sure you go home and get changed before doing a mission.

Residence:
A key thing when starting off is to find a place to settle, here you can store any extra weapons and clothes/armor you have as you can only take 2 weapons and 1 set of armor or clothes at a time. Also the better the house, the better health you regain if you rest and other general bonuses.

Squad:
Go it alone, team up with other players (if you do so you have to organise who will be the leader and who the lackey ) and recruit NPCs. If your in a squad with other real player you share a residence.^^

Fame:
Your actions depend on which way fame goes either into negative or positive. This affects interactions with others.

Both of you:
The both of you step out of the corporate building; dazzled. The bustle of traffic and blasts of advertisements from intercoms and holographic ads on the side of skyscrapers overcome your thoughts. However you vaguely remember partaking in some kind of social experiment or government mission, looking at each other you sense some tension.

You have a choice:
A) Stay together (More than one person has to choose this for this option)
B) Go it alone

Both of you:
Decide who will be the leader

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thomas:
Joe exclaimed to you 'Well, two heads are better than one.' You saw his logic and decided to agree to stick together. You notice a list scrawled on the back of your hand:

a) Find a place to sleep
b) Get some money
c) A strange phone number is also written.

To your left you see a 'JobCentre Addition.' Looking in through the glass pane you see half depressed citizens conversing to even moodier workers of unwelcoming cheap furniture. Immediately in front of you there is a bus stop and to your right there are multiple firms and businesses set up in corporate buildings.

Joe:
You tell Thomas that you should team up, he acknowledges this and nods. You cross the road to get a better view of where you just came out of, its a towering building with tinted windows. Across the road there is a library and also a high class hotel, you also notice that next to Thomas on the road he's standing is a 'Job Centre' and a bus stop.
