Player Features and Ideas Discussion

In light of CCP's new initiative to better help new pilots i have been pondering many things.

I have attended both seminars so far and while i appreciate CCP's efforts in this regard i think there is a better solution, and it lies in a already tested environment.

CDIA Files
For those who haven't seen them, please watch these three, that CCP has made.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBfEVd3bbf4 < Agent Missions
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJKcK-Fv80I < Sansha incursions.

The most immersive and interesting tutorials i have done in games involve good (and interesting) visual feedback.

If you skip to 0:56 in the Agent mission video you will see a perfect starting point. A beautiful menu, visually interesting. This could easily be accessed through the tutorial button. From there you can go through in depth videos and slowly expand them as needed.

Obviously we would need to consider CCP's abilities. Do they have the time and/or people to do this. We would also have to consider how much extra data would need to be added to the game in the form of videos. I have no idea how long the current CDIA files took to create, but i fully believe it would be completely worth the time and effort to pursue this type of tutorial system.

I feel this method of introducing players to the game would be far superior to any text/channel based tutorial system. I have always preferred games that talk to me instead of having to read text.

I am personally going to begin creating a tutorial series in provides some indepth feedback for new players but nothing i can do would compare to how amazing it would be if these were in the game.

Please use this topic to discuss any pros/cons or concerns with implementing this. I would love CCP's feedback on if such a thing could be viable for implementation. I would also love player feedback on what topics they could cover.
Thanks for reading!
