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.

Your 4 days of work have gained you $300 from cleaning. As a cleaner your hygiene improved as you saw the dirtyness of life so Poor Immunity Recieved and $240 as night guard. You also reach average maths and Physics skills. but thats highest you can go by reading.

All this working has stressed you out, especially as each night you sleep in a barren room.

You've earned $60 from working and your experience allows you to level to Good Medical Skills, but thats about as far as it can go by solely doing the practical side.

From Sleeping in the hotel you have acquired stiff limbs.
