Man, once you go non-Froob it is hard to go back and make a Froob account.
Couple of decent threads/links for people if they want to get started - EVERYTHING is super old, semi out-dated, but overall can get you into the game.
Overall Class and Game Overview
What Buffs buff What
Implants for the Lazy People (Premade)
Download Map Mods
Database of info (probably dated)
Once you get the hang of things... do the intro zone then "the Subway" or even click on a Mission Terminal and check one out. Missions are just random gen quests. You can have a bunch and cancel for more if you dont like the location. Start "close by" and complete a few.
Pretty big tip in the beginning is get a med suit and decent "NCU + Belt" (can get decent stuff in Subway). Med Suit ups your Treatment, which lets you equip in Premade Implants for bigger stats. Bigger stats let you put on higher QL (quality) gear... This is a vicious cycle that can get pretty fun - called twinking - its a pretty cool puzzle of gear manipulation and buffs to equip the highest QL stuff you can. The higher the QL vs your opponent, the easier. People get pretty insane with this shit hence the post about specific items people use to just equip so they can equip other shit.
The main forum is filled with class info under the Profession section. Be prepared to encounter some jaded, oldtymers. AO Froob is another OK place to check out. In game people spam "information bots" - so once you are in game just ask for help, click a few links, read, watch... then enjoy.
