Without knowing it, this guy is performing a think aloud usabilty test.

Discovers classes by clicking through each one.
He clearly doesn't get that everyone he has seen in the Warpgate is on his side, or he just doesn't care.
He wants to try out all his weapons straight away, even if it means team killing to do so.

Of course, the most pressing feedback should be how to solve the problem of what to do about bell ends who, within their first ten minutes will immediately team-kill, kill-steal and fire at Gal's because they haven't been picked up.

Definitely need a weapon lock in the WG though.
Only intelligent post in this thread.

Goes to show how much VR is needed to get new players feet wet, and how unintuitive the new player experience is currently.

Hopefully they are willing to polish it up through beta so that we don't end up with old EvE's NPE.
