New Player Guide

Thanks to MbA0069 [235143] for this great tutorial!

Alright, So you finally log into Torn City for the first time, arrive at your Home, and begin looking around..At this point, you're probably stunned at what this city has to offer..You look around at all the different links, and wonder, Okay, what next?

Get A Job!
So, one of the most important things to do when you start, is get a job. To do this, go to Newspaper>Job List..basically, the only jobs that will accept you right away is Grocer, Army, and Casino. Out of these, Casino will pay you the best when first starting off. Also, as one of the job benefits, you can get more casino tokens, which can allow you to play in the casino more, thus, hopefully earning you more money. Try This tutorial to get to Medical Gp rank as quick as possible.

Train in the gym!
So, you have 100 Energy, but dont know what to do with it. Get up, and go work out!..To do this, you need to sign up to a gym. Just like getting a Job, click Newspaper>Local Gyms..when you first start out, you need to sign up to Woody's, its the only gym you can use right now. It costs 100$. Then, on the left, click Gym. You now see, Speed, Strength, Defence, and Dexterity. Click our Training/Stat guide on the left to find out more about the gym and how to go about using your energy.

Do some crimes!
Alright, so you see you also have a Nerve Bar. This is what you use to commit crimes, Nerve. When you first start, you should stick to Search for cash. You cannot be jailed for this, so feel free to experiment. Searching under the old bridge will probably give you the most cash, but either way, this crime doesnt give much cash, but, you have to start somewhere. After a few days, and succeeding (always getting green result) at this crime, Try moving up to selling illegal CD's..watch out you dont jump up a crime too quickly, cause you can find yourself in the big house. If you are getting jailed or failing a certain crime(brown or red result), try hopping down a crime.

Join a faction!
Well, at this point, most factions probably wouldnt accept you, since you are still figuring out the game, and you have very low stats. But look around, apply to a few, check the classifieds in the newspaper, you might be surprised with a faction who will accept you!..Factions are a great way of making friends, and also, if the Faction gives you a payday, its an easy way of making cash besides work and crimes!

Try your luck in the Casino!
To make some spare money, you can test your luck in the casino..beware, as some are easier than others, and some you can lose big, or win big..try the different ones out, see what you're good at..oh just a tip: if you're good with math probability, try High-Low..could earn you some big bucks!

When it comes to your energy, dont waste it. At this point in the game, you should be training all your energy in the gym, dont worry about attacking just yet, at least until you have to (faction war, ect)..basically it just gives you exp, but its more beneficial if you train. Think of it this way, once you're done attacking, the energy is gone, at least when you train, the energy is gone, but your battle stats will thank you :)..plus, its great if you train hard, and a higher level user attacks you and stalemates, or maybe even loses.

You should put "start an educatation course before the Gym", its pretty frustrating if you dont have enough energy..

You probably wouldn't have enough money to start an education course if you've just started the game.

Actually... go find cash. Cash in on casino & play slots.
Level 1:s tend to win $500, just like that.. Some kind of weird magic.
Now begin an education ;) basic- learning, ie program, english, maths.. should be best
Then in a month or so become a teacher.

I believe that when you start the game, you have one Point. Sell this on the Points Market at the lowest price less 1 dollar to get a quick sale, and you'll have stacks of cash to buy a good melee weapon (which you don't need to buy ammo for), and start your first education course. Also, it is very cheap to rent a property so do that to help your training.

What i think you do is, first go to newspaper then rent properties. Rent either a trailer or apartment, usually they have them for free for 100 days. After go to education, go for basic computer course, gives you a boost of 100 intelligence. Then go to jobs and go for the casino, you need the cash. Go to the gym and train. Best train dexerity. After you have 500 dexerity go onto anything else. Then search for cash or sell dvds and at the end of all this you should end up with $278 or something. Keep doing this when possible and at day 7, go onto the basic english course, when done go onto the maths course and change jobs to hospital, pay is $400. That takes only 17 and you could be earning a lot

i think you first have to find a job to earn cash commit crimes like searching for cash and then you can advance.
also need weapons to shake off your enemies

I think something very important was missed out this tutorial. And that is that new players should vote for the game. The weekly vote earns you a point every sunday, this can bring in 50,000 each week if sold on the points market, which is a lot of money for new players! this will allow them to get a better property which will then enable them to train better and succeed better with crimes.
