ultimaster Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 I hope not in regards to the "auto-pause". I'm more of a go with the flow fighter. The pausing would also significantly slow the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Well, I think having an 'auto-pause' is an extremely bad idea. I prefer free-flowing gameplay, although in NWN I did pause battles a few times. I would prefer to remain in control of pausing...otherwise it's going to feel too much like turn-based combat. I thought the whole idea was to make it feel more real-time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrie Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 My expectations are that this "auto-pause" feature will be pretty much like the X-Com Apocalypse game. Meaning that it will be a fully optional choice, and that you can configure the game to "auto-pause" only at several events, like... * A PC goes down * An enemy is killed * PC spotted enemy * PC damaged by enemy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Bioware would make the auto-pause unoptional. That would be a crazy step on their part. I also agree with Stormy on how I would use this. I want to control the pausing myself. I would only pause in extreme cases or what he already stated. Thanks for the link Swat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty_V2.1 Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 That's how they handled it before, with check boxes beside each option. Since they have the cool slo-mo thing now I probably won't need to pause that much..plus there are only 3 chars in your party compared to the 6 they had in Baldur's Gate serie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
