==General Guide==
-Preface-
This guide will assume that either you have already gotten your closed beta, or open beta/full release invite and download, as well as finished installing the game.
This thread is meant as a BASIC guide on starting and running Softnyx's online action game Wolf Team.
The guide will cover starting the game, basic controls, menu screens, and how to enter and play games.
-If this thread becomes a sticky in the future-
I would like to request that the thread be cleaned and relative text be put into a single post.
(I'll attempt to keep this post updated on my own too)
-If a mod creates a thread for this topic-
I would like to request the thread be closed.

-Starting The Game And Getting Into Combat-
Since this guide assumes you have the game already installed, let's go from there.
Your going to start by opening the launcher, in this case, through the desktop icon the install would have created.
The icon looks like this (Or did in Beta)
Once you open the launcher you will be present with a Softnyx login screen like this
Type in your Softnyx Login ID and Login Password in the spaces provided, and then hit the OK button to log in.
After logging in you will be presented with a Softnyx Game Launcher screen like this
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE WOLFTEAM SELECTED IN THE GAME SELECTION AREA (Top)
Once WolfTeam is selected, hit the start button at the bottom right of the launcher, and your game will patch if needed, and start.
Now that the game has started and the initial screen is gone, you are left with a screen for what region server you would like to join
Join an appropriate server
and say hello to the BATTLE screen.
The BATTLE screen includes a game list, list arrows, chat area, game description screen, game create and quick join options.
Choose a game from the list that you would like to join, that isn't full, and double click it.
You are now at the game prep screen
This screen lists all the players, and has a chat area and game description box.
Once you have finsished loading your connection to the game, hit the START or READY button in the middle of the screen.
Once the game has started, you will be ingame at the weapon selection screen.
This screen has your weapon selections, each costs Weapon Points that you gain by killing enemies and taking capture points as well as winning rounds.
Choose a weapon (or in the case of Human Vs Wolf and you are on the wolf team, the kind of wolf you would like to be) and prepare to play.
You are now fully ingame, ready to rock, you will see your HUD and view with HP, Ammo, Score, Minimap/Weapon Points counter, and Kill tracker.
You are now ready to play Softnyx's action game WolfTeam, good hunting.

-Game Types-
Base Capture
Two opposing teams begin at either end of a map, and must capture control points to win the round.
Capturing all control points automatically wins the round, and having the most control points at the end of the round gives a victory.
Team Deathmatch
Two teams begin at either end of a map, and must kill their enemies to earn points.
Reaching the set kill limit automatically wins the round, and having the most kills at the end of a round gives a victory.
Bomb Plant
Two teams begin at either end of a map, and must either plant a bomb in a designated area and wait for it to explode, or defend those areas and not let them be destroyed.
Planting the bomb and having it explode will win the round, also, killing all members of the enemy team automatically wins the round.
(Counterstrike fans will be familiar with this game style as it is very close to the Terrorist and Counter-Terrorist gameplay)
Humans Vs Wolves Base Capture
Two opposing teams begin at either end of a map, and must capture control points to win the round.
Capturing all control points automatically wins the round, and having the most control points at the end of the round gives a victory.
The special feature of this mode is that unlike regular Base Capture, one team is exclusively human, and one team is exclusively werewolves. The wolf team has access to different styles of wolves instead of weapons, and the type chose changes gameplay immensely.
Regular Wolf - The standard wolf, balanced.
Power Wolf - An attack style wolf with increased power and HP.
Guardian Wolf - A defence style wolf with upgraded HP and the ability to guard, creating a natural shield around itself, reducing taken damage to extremely low numbers.
Ghost Wolf - A stealth and attack style wolf with increased power, but weakened defence. Has the ability to become invisible as long as it remains still and is not damaged or touched.

-The Shop-
The shop area of the main menu allows for the purchase and modification of your weapon loadouts.
Before we get into buying weapons, let's take a look at some of the weapons stats.
Left click one of the weapons and take a look at it's description, stats, and upgrades.
In this guides case, a fully upgraded AK-47
-What each of the weapon stats mean-
Mode - The firing modes of the weapon
Power - The basic damage of the weapon
Penetration - The thickness of objects a weapon can shoot rounds through
Fire Rate - How fast the weapon fires
Accuracy - How accurate the weapon is when firing
On-The-Move - How accurate and how much control you have while moving and shooting
Recoil Control - How much control you have when firing
Effective Range - How well the weapon will fire at range
Durability - How tough the weapon is
Weight - How much the weapon will slow you down
Cartridges - How much ammo the weapon can carry
To buy a weapon, doubleclick it or select it and click the buy button, you will be presented with a confirmation screen.
Click buy to finish the purchase and have the weapon added to your inventory.
________________________________________
-The Inventory-
Your inventory screen can be used to modify your weapon loadout.
Only PRIMARY weapons can replace other PRIMARY weapons, so we'll move to loadout 2 and modify that.
To modify your setup, select the weapon you want to replace, and then doubleclick the weapon you want to replace it with.
PRIMARY weapons CAN be put in regular weapon slots.
To select upgrades to weapons, select that weapon and then click the upgrade tab
doubleclick a upgrade to buy it and attach it to the weapon.
