With These 30 Minute Timers...
This discussion has been closed.

I consider quitting this game on the regular due to the amount of time AQ demands the only thing that stops me is I love my alliance and friends here..
The best change they could give us NOW from all the backlash and burnout is 30 minute timers .. Kabaam will be surprised how fast the backlash quiets by just throwing us that bone now!!
otherwise I hope people will continue to drop slowly from this game and move to others as I eventually will after almost 5 years of playing
Go to a more relaxed alliance doing lower maps so you don't have to wake up in the middle of the night or spend all your time doing AQ.
If you want to be bleeding edge top tier, then you make personal sacrifices. If you don't want to commit to that, then drop down. No one is forcing you to play at a high level. I literally sleep 10 hours chilling on map 4, and I still get enough materials to enjoy the game comfortably.
30 timers will hurt me, well, Kabam I am willing to suffer so please hurt me with your 30 minutes timer.
Just cause people want to play the game at a high level doesn't mean their quality of life should be given up. You can choose to play map 4 and be happy with that. Personally I agree with the man. I think they should get rid of 1 hour timers and make them 30min. I also think they should just get rid of timers in aw so that your full squad can attack at the same time and give it the feel of a war. Not just 2-3 people moving every couple hours. The game should be fun and not stressful for people and yes I do map 6 and would still keep doing it but would be a bonus to be able to finish the map before bed.
It’s metrics that mean nothing to anyone other than managers and board members.
Kabam is very sucessful with their tactic, making people using as much time in the game as possible. 1 hour timer is not naturally required, it was designed so by dev who want their customer stick with the phone, stick with the game as long as it can be. It is business at its best and worst. Best, because it succeeds. Worst, because its unethical.
After 3 years playing this game, I come to a conclusion that many aspect of the game can be done so differently to make it better - not for the company, but for us the customers. We are just not strong enough to push for the change.
I bet you guys bashing this idea were the same ones saying all the original Map 7 links were cool and added something other than being a pain. Guess what they removed them even with all their employees in the weeds killing threads at the time. Timers and links are solely designed to keep people plugged in nothing more.
Your argument against it is that “nobody is forcing you to play the higher maps” is a terrible one. Of course nobody is forcing anyone to play this game at all. But that’s not an argument against making the change. Try and provide a credible reason why they shouldn’t change it instead. I haven’t seen one beside the old hilarious one that Kabam gave about “not wanting to put pressure on players to login more often” which is beyond absurd.
Personally I’m fine with 60 min timers and have no issue dealing with them. But they would certainly improve my QOL as a player if changed to 30, along with alliance mates who live in other parts of the world and are affected more than I am...so I am all for the change.
This is an easy, quick change that would make a ton of people happy. However, if there is a legitimate reason against it I’d genuinely love to hear it and am open to changing my opinion.
Or the usual rubbish that people who have nothing to contribute post. Like what you did.
I, on the other hand, provided a solution that could appease both sides, since I do see both sides of the argument. See, I added to the conversation by bringing up a possible fix. You, on the other hand, did not contribute with your comment above. Sorry, try again next time.
Fix would be pointless then. Making it worse for both sides, since the people against it don't want to 'login' every 30 minutes and the people for it don't want the same. And noone wants double the fights.
