Easing the Grind For Newbies: Basekit Characters Start at Prestige 1.
Pretty much what the title says.
One of the biggest issues with the Grind, then and now, is it's not very beginner friendly. It's a slog for people starting out and who don't have much to work with.
My suggestion: every PC basekit character starts at Prestige 1.
So a new player will have Tier 1 versions of Dwight's, Meg's, Trapper's, Hillbilly's, etc perks right out the gate. Works as a jumping on point by giving them something more than 3 perks per character right off but so provides incentive to level them for better versions of those perks, even without access to anyone else.
Not sure if this should be expanded for consoles, who have a wider range of characters at the start than PC, but having PC characters as basekit should still offer some useful perks to equip.
