While the tutorial does a good job at explaining how to operate the interface, it doesn't say a thing about how to handle your first squad of pathetic recon titans. Things like scanning and dodging just don't work that well in most instances.

It would be much better if the tutorial was actually based around the kind of titans that you use in the beginning.

...and that is one reason why the tutorial Titan isn't a beginners Titan, because you would have to repeat a few comands too often before getting the result described in the tutorial text. At the end of the tutorial you get the following information:

"Remember that TigerI is an android, made for training purposes. If you are going to assemble your own squad, your jocks probably will not have improved skills in the beginning like TigerI has. Expect your to hit chances and skill checks to be on a lower level."

I agree that the Tutorial did not warn you about recon titans supporting the jock worse than a medium Titan does. But - on the other hand - the Tutorial is supposed to help you understand the interface, the "art of combat" should be experienced by the player himself/herself.
