Good evening to all you CC'S, do you think it would me more "fun" to have the dice roll as if they were on a fast moving slot machine??? would this make it more random. Can this be done on a random dice program? Maybe people wouldn't complain as much. :idea:

it wouldn't be more random. it would be the same just with animation.
bad idea because animations put a big strain on the server.

i don't want my games to lag just so some animation can make people feel better about their rolls... not a great idea...-0

and it would completely eliminate the use of auto-attack. Cause auto is meant to be fast. it would still go very slow if you added animations....

I would be against having the animation as part of the dice rolls. However, if the other guy is constantly rolling 6's then perhaps a What the Hell! button could be added in order to take out your frustrations. When you push it there would be some animated voice screaming "What the hell is up with the dice". It wouldn't change the game but it would help me deal with the anger.

hahahaha, good idea.

I still prefer slamming my PC desk with my fist.
If it keeps going like that, i'll get a punching bag installed in my PC room.
This way i'll be able to exercise while playing.

:-p

Seriously? This is what we've come to? I'm not a programmer, but I'm just going to guess that having the numbers spin on the screen doesn't actually help in this matter.
