Re: Idea to help new players. - Master - 17-10-2015
Not a bad idea - the community for this mod is already small. I've had many experiences where it's me and 2/3 red shirts. It normally turns into the redshirts being dead, and watching me kite normal.
A mode for new players - to not break them early with the grind of NI, would be nice.
Would also be an interesting idea to bring back some novelty items via loot - Looting a pitchfork , a huscarl round shield, or the rare rare drop chance at something like a beer mug? Hell yes.

I also have no clue how they would make the bots weak enough for it to be an easy mode.
I don't think they need to lock normal, but I said earlier that they should exp lock easy to levels 1 to 13 so no one above t2 really should play it.
And yeah there shouldn't be drops except for really basic mats.

That's another thing. Even if we can help them in normal, they often get themselves killed. They don't like being told to stay in the back to absorb exp.
And idk about novelty drops in easy mode, it would make us want to play it instead of the new guys.

Maybe just automatically start them off at T1 or T2 or there abouts and make that the new red shirt range, so most average plays can do something when starting out, even by themselves.

I dunno about that, that would remove 5 or 13 levels from the game.
I think starting at T0 is important. You really start from the bottom that way.
Re: Idea to help new players. - Swadius - 18-10-2015
What the bottom is is relative. If you move the bottom up, there will be a new bottom from which leople will start from.
Aside from that I think an important question you need to aso is: what is important about the current bottom that we have now that moving it up a few tiers will remove. At this point right now. Starting out as a red shirt right now is not very fun at all, and is not indicative of how the game really plays for the vast majority of the game.
Both of these new people need when they first try out a mod.
Re: Idea to help new players. - Consweber - 19-10-2015
an easy mode should be implemented in bannerlord just to start us off because i assume we are on a clean slate. If so we will all be scrubs and this easy mode will be a good start
Re: Idea to help new players. - DeadOtter - 19-10-2015
who says this mod is being made for bannerlord hey
Re: Idea to help new players. - Wec - 19-10-2015
I hope it's made for bannerlord, but that's off-topic.

That is a great point, because when I first started I know I didn't really want to play because the constant uphill grind to get more capable of surviving didn't seem worth the effort.
Re: Idea to help new players. - DeadOtter - 19-10-2015
an easy mode lvl capped i think would work really well

I think so too.
