Yes, we are aiming for meaningful gampleay regardless of the mode, so that the 'Novice mode' (I'm beginning to like this
) is not dumbed down to the point of being disrespectful. The thing is that the most issues that have been raised by new players is lack of awareness and that they are finding it difficult to find their bearings (pun intended) in the 360-degree system.
To me it seems very weird that anyone could find it complicated... It's just a bering and a distance, and yet A LOT of people react to it like a deer in the headlights
Anyhow, there is a lot going on with the game right now, so keep your fingers crossed for both the original (simulation) mode and the new one - hopefully it will bring in a few new souls into the genre
