#2856, "Thinking of ways to make the mud more newbie friendly"


          

There has been a lot of progress towards making the mud more newbie friendly. No more xp holes, better academy, and lots of other little thing throughout the game. One idea hit me today though. Slightly increasing the time between rounds of combat.. even 1/8 or 1/16 of a second would give new players that extra moment to read and react to what's going on during combat. I'm still not very good at it, but that was one of the hardest things for me to do, consume all the information coming in during PK. The question I guess would be is it possible to do this during PK but not during regular NPC combat. That extra time would really add up during ranking.

Is this game mechanics too far out in left field?
