[QUOTE="kolpo, post: 4940407, member: 56870"] If they make a real time game do I think that it is very important to resist the urge to make it very fast paced. In NWN felt 6s round right for casting classes, but for classes who just did autoattack was it too slow until they got more attacks/round. But in D&D4 has everyone powers, so I think that 6 seconds would work fine. Also remember that 6s is not the time needed for one player to use his power, but it is the time needed for all players and monsters to use there powers in initiative order. Some powers also require more then one click and tactial decisions(like who shall I give a boost to attack) If combat becomes too fast to use tactics for most people, then can you just as well no longer have tactics, then you basically have diablo like power spamming. This is not the type of game people expect from a D&D game I think. [/QUOTE]
