seriously, some of those tips are really outdated, I recently saw a tip on how to spare health to a dead person

One of the tips still says you can hurt enemies while you're on fire.

I read them still. What else am I going to do for 30 seconds while I load?

Sometimes I read an outdated tip and get all confused due the fact it no longer applies. "Oh, I can share my life with others again? Great! Oh wait, this is outdated."

I read them too, I'm just assuming a small amount of people actually read them (like me)

I got some tips that could be implemented during the loading screen:

1. Events can happen in more than missions
Some events such as the Spiral Anniversary can occur in the clockworks. It can only happen if the actual event is happening. Find those event rooms and you shall be rewarded!

2. Achievements
Ever wanted to show off your achievements of what you've accomplished? Well, there are the achievements. Do the specific tasks and show off!

3. Difficulty mode
The level you're on is too difficult for you? Choose an easier difficulty or select different weapons!

4. Auction house - Tip #1
Need to sell something to players, yet you can't do it all day? Go to the Auction house and place an item on auction!

5. Auction house - Tip #2
Want to buy something, but no player is selling that specific item? Check the Auction house and search for it!

6. Spiral Announcements
Want to know the latest announcements from Spiral Knights staff? Check the announcements subforum on the forums!

No need to disseminate false/outdated information.

This had me trying to fondle enemies for my first few weeks of playing whenever I caught fire. I think the only remnant of this is when enemy robo-knights shock themselves and you're extremely close (closer than brushing up against them). I'm still not sure how I managed to get that shock status...

While you can't damage enemies with your fire while on fire, you can hurt enemies (and friends) from the shock status whenever it gives a jolt

It should tell the ppl that shocked npc or player that spasm near to another player (or npc) will make the other player get shocked too

I love this, we need more tips. I love reading them. How about some of these...

Status Tip: Remember enemies that inflict a status are also resistant to it!

Shock Tip: If you are shocked, stay away from your party! Electricity jumps!

Boss Tip: Remember! All bosses have a pattern to their attacks! Use this to your advantage!

Gear Tip: For more fun while delving the Clockworks, wear gear with appropriate power for the depth!

Training Tip
Not good enough of a fighter? Go to the Advanced Training Hall to practice tactics and weapons, or get a refresher on some aspects of the game.

Some of them have been obsolete almost since beta.

Why not replace the loading screen with the one from Sonic 06 while we're at it?

Why is even what.

No.

@ OP: Yes. Because some people are gullible and may actually believe those tips.

gods ain't gonna help you, son.

U77654, you mean with a map of the place you would go? it's ok in haven, subtowns and terminals, but not in the clockworks, you discover the map as you play.

I'm referring to how stupidly long the loading screens are in SK and comparing them to the ones from Sonic 06 which also have too many long loading screens.

"Interesting... I dont see outdated tips.."

There are a ton.

One example I already mentioned, the fire tip that says that you can burn enemies if you get close to them while you're on fire. This is not true anymore.

Here's a true one.If you get shocked while under the shock status, you and anyone touching you will suffer from the damage.
