It makes perfect sense why you cant skip the tutorial if the account has no character. As is, we already get enough questions about how to do everything in-game as platoons or squads when we are focusing on play. Players don't always have the time to teach about every aspect of the game while playing, and its good for new players to be forced to go through a tutorial before hand so that they somewhat understand what is going on. Given the chance, most players would skip the tutorial, even the new guys just because they want to jump straight into the action. However, on a game this scale it doesn't work. It isnt a single player game, or a run of the mill shooter, it is far more complex than that and cannot be figured out with trial and error. It is a good thing that they force it uppon new players and don't give them a choice to skip it.

If someone creates a new account, how does the game know he is a veteran? It isn't like the tutorial takes an insane amount of time to get through either. Experienced players should be able to get through it in 5 minutes without a problem. (I did it just to see the tutorial in the first place) Not to mention, it is his fault for making a new account in the first place.
