Greetings all!
My name is Kiriaya(Kiri to friends) and I have another new player joining this game with me, Denkir. I began on 12-14-2015, and he began 12-18-2015. We are VERY new and terribly confused. I can be a little long winded, though I will try to be as brief as need-for-clarity will allow.
We attempted to co-op run "Assimilation of Innocence" together, and though we could share the mission via the interface, upon entering the Vega System, we would end up in separate instances.
We were in a party together, started on the same instance in galaxy space... Everything I THOUGHT was needed to get the run going. Two things of note that I'm not quite certain of being factors:
-He shared the mission with me, but I was the team-leader.
-From what I've found online, the particular mission is a tutorial(though there is little learned from it, really)
We tried to start the mission multiple times, yet the issue remained persistent. Since, I have spent not a few hours scrolling through sites suggested by Google(I know, I know: First mistake
), yet nothing found is truly Cadet friendly in terms of clarity.
So here is what I need, if anyone is willing to assist me:
A step by step walk through for players of slightly differing levels(He is Lt. rank 2, I am Lt. rank 7) on how to obtain, share, follow to, and begin a mission in the same instance. I know it may be a fair bit to type(if our own failure at the procedure is any indication of complexity), but it would be a wonderful thing for other new players to be able to have on hand somewhere and I would be forever grateful.
Thank you very much, any who can offer advice.
Yours,
Kiri

But like leemwatson said I don't think tuto missions can be teamed. Some kind a bug maybe. Try again after the tuto.
Also, after the tutorial, there will be some missions later on that you cannot do as a team. Missions like "Circles in Circles" will usually tell you in the opening mission description window if its solo or not.
Anyone want to give me a Temporal Heavy Dreadnought pack? I'll be your friend

Hi, welcome to STO. As the others have indicated, sounds like you were doing the sharing thing part all correct, however you just cannot share the tutorial missions.
If it helps, I've written a new players guide which can be found here - it'll explain the major aspects of the game in some detail for you, which you might find helpful. As always, grateful for any suggestions on how to improve it.
