Openra academy
Posted: Thu Aug 30, 2018 11:52 am
Couple month back, I created a discord server as a platform to store game information with the purpose to be accessible to every beginner that is seduce by the game and wish to play competitively. Based on my experience on other games with a similar project and good result i designed a process and use some locked text channel as organized topics.
I diden't advertised much as the full content of the server is not ready yet but enought to teach the basics. With my computer time reduce to irl busines and more and more begginer coming on the discord server, I know think it's time for the project to be more public (I'm afraid to use the term official, i will let someone else claim that in time)
I present the ORA academy.
https://discord.gg/SwTTC8H
the server is composed on 4 levels on learning/training to grab and understand the aspect of the game. It also gather a maximum of tips and tricks the game allows and links to some existing content (such as happy's guide).I tried to use my own experience in openra as a player (once competitive ?) and regular viewer to make the process neutral in order to let people choose their own playstyle in the end. "Students" are taking care of by some teacher that are at their disposal to answer their question or supervise games or replays as needed.
So far, the feedback i have is it has help some player and save them time to find some info by themself or by figure out what really matter in a competitive game.
My motivation is an attempt to reinforce and consolidate our competitive player base by facilitating the learning process wich sometime can drive a player away.
It is not an attempt to form a side community as i will moderate the server to be exclusively used for teaching/learning discussion. We have already enought community servers, go talk music or spam meme there !
Feel free to send any beginner on this server or visit it yourself. I still need help to continue the LVL 3 and LVL4 and any volonteer to be teacher is welcome as soon as he does not try to impose his "personal" vision to the new players and keep focus on important basic aspect.
