Time Limit

[Newell]

I find it way to short. I've lost 5 games that I would of one if the time didn't end.

This really hinders lower levels verse higher levels. We might have the upper hand but they just had more mercs to kill in the long run, so less points.

Yea - the time limit is way to short. 50% of my fight in win/loss with points. And at some of them the other would win if there wasnt a time limit.

Get a formation with more damage, or plan around the time limit.

I would say increase the time, but not by much. The time limits are there for a reason, we don't want really significantly longer times, because a very short increase, multiplied over many people playing, can actually get significant.

time limit is part of the game man, when u see that game is almost over, get as much done as possible, i focus all my atk on 1 and manage to kill 1 or 2 while most ppl r too dumb to notice there's limit and then lose to me b/c of limit

[Newell]

Well yeah but times when OB started were better.

And no, I will not alter my build to suit the needs of a time limit. Thats stupid. Plus we all know deaths are really the only point changers. I lost a battle once becuase I had 20 seconds to go, on my turn and the sudden death killed a merc of mine. Giving the oppoenent a few points ahead of me. I whipped out some magic attacks but it wasn't enough.

Well, its part of the strategy right? Why do you think a lot of people don't aim for your main and just pick off ur light squishies?

[Balathorn]

You're basically saying: i'm not going to adapt and try to win. It's great, but then don't whine when you're getting screwed by the time limit. It's a game mechanic, deal with it.

[aphrodite]

i dun get y ur complaining abt time limit making u lose, ur opponent is under the same situation when they're in a battle with u, its not like ur opponent doesn't have the limit

[Kaiten]

It's all about keeping tabs on both time and the battle itself. Aphrodite actually opened up something that I've failed to see before, although it's plainly obvious, both teams have to deal with the time limit. It's much better to make do what you have instead of changing into what you don't. So manage your mercs and heal appropriately.

the timer is ok you just have to use your skill and brain for you to win
its ok to win in points is part of the game... the problem is they gonna call
you cheater becoz you win by time :(

[bakedpotato]

Does anyone has an idea how much time we have in the battle? I just figured I have about 1 minute left when they announced the battle is coming to an end soon.

This might be a noob comment, but I was having issues with the time limit once I got more than 5 mercs, then realized something small, but very important.

That DAMN camera-zoom-when-attack/cast thing CAN be turned off! I was WAITING for the attacks to finish and such, cuz I couldn't see anything. Now the strategy is setting things up in my head during the opponents turn so when my turn occurs, I just press a quick button sequnce: 1, *click*, 7, G, 3 *click*, 6, Q, *click* - etc etc

NOOB moral of the story - TURN CAMERA EFFECTS OFF (its in the system settings)

Heh it's also the first button on the bottom left, above your mercs action commands.
