So I started playing a few days ago. So far I'm having fun (nice break from hitting orcs and goblins), however a few potential issues have raised there head. I have a few questions, I hope someone doesn't mind answering.
I really like group play - but this game seems very solo orientated - are there any group quests? So far it seems to be all solo stuff. Which leads me to my next question...
Am I likely to get a group at my level (12)? I did a quick search and apparently there were no players level 5 - 17 on the server (Syntax)
Are there any active crews out there?? I joined, or rather got invited into one on my first day... but apart from the guy who invited me the group seems very inactive. Is this normal?
I guess my 'issues' boil down to wanting to get into group play, but it feels like I've arrived to the party too late so to speak.
Anyway... I'm on Syntax and my toon is called Eledrian
Cheers

The game is not based on solo action. There are some quests that are impossible to do by yourself, like the Pandora Boxes or Sati's stuff. Still, you can get your own exp, clothing and weapons, but is always better to have someone in your side. Just go around and make friends, they can be very helpful.
You can always call somebody in your party. Just type '/invite [redpill's name]' and the team will set up. You can have a party of 6 players, the level of each one doesn't matter, except in the exp you get.
It's hard to see someone who is not lvl 50 (max level). At least I rarely see someone under lvl 30 on Vector. I don't know if happens the same on Syntax but as I said before, keep looking around for someone who has the will to help you out.
Be careful on the Faction you choose. Meet the operatives, their goals and their achievements. You don't want to join a crew who has bad reputation or is not interested in help you with clothes or abilities. Usually every ship has 7 or 8 operatives at least and they must be willing to help you, otherwise they just want a large list of players, wich is useless for you.
