Dear Kabam devs
This is the most favorable thing you could add up to the game and gets thumbs-up from a large number of players
Please make this 30 minutes timers permanent
1 hour Timer is like keep waiting only
Most of the players are from working class who don't have much time to keep logging in again and again
The purpose of AQ must be checking the skill rather time
So there's a request to put forward
Thanks

Not going to happen. Pretty much confirmed
I like my EU guys to be honest.
Kabam wants you to log into the game multiple times over whole day. With 30 min timers, most alliances would finish map 5 before noon, which in turn means no more MCOC for 8+ hours. People might see past their addiction that way and this shouldn't happen!
Someone finally nails the real reason.
Otherwise it doesn't serve any purpose imo
But if they can do it for sometime why not for forever
It actually affects other Players. Occasionally, they have them if there is some kind of timing issue, or as a special incentive, but they've tested it long-term and it's caused issues.
AQ is not about individual scoring high scores rather completion of entire map imo
P.s i didn't flag you @GroundedWisdom
Different Time Zones, different schedules, different Maps. It's not so much the scoring as it is the participation. Some are logging on when it's already done because their night is our day. Plus the pressure added because not everyone can log on to move everything half an hour. No worries about the Flag. I'm numb to it at this point. It's just used because some don't like what I say.
When exactly did they "test it long term"? I'd like to see the evidence for that claim.
He doesn't have to provide evidence or show facts based on actual data. Haven't you read his multiple posts on the forums? It's grounded wisdom, nuff said
If shortening it to 30 mins means a longer AQ map is in store for us, then I'd say 1 hour is just fine.
That argument is totally vague
If 30 minutes timers aren't good then why kabam offer them when there is no maintenance???
They should allow 30 minutes timers only for maintenance rather randomly
There is usually some reason they enable it. It's not very often. Even then it has effects. Most commonly, it's because something has affected the time it takes to complete AQ.
They also gave them to us as a Christmas present last year. The reason why they were a present is because Kabam knows that the vast majority of the player base finds them to be much better and the "issues" they cause are really marginal to nonexistent.
Or it could because they want us to finish earlier so we can enjoy our holidays better.
Now you yourself said that we should complete AQ earlier so that we can do other stuffs
That's what I'm saying
Players have others things to do also and not merely playing all day
E.g if a person is busy and he doesn't have time to stuck to the game till last hours of AQ then it doesn't make any sense to have 1 hour timer
With 30 minutes timers you always have a plenty of Energy to move whenever you login so it just enable players to do other things in life
AQ should be about skills and not timings only.
Yeah, but knowing Kabam... Since the AQ map was designed with 1 hour timers in mind, having it switch to 30 min timers might simply result in a redesign of the AQ map, making it longer and more tedious.
In addition, with this week of 30 min timers, I find alot of members in my alliance hurrying others to come on as they have full energy, which was almost non-existant with the 1 hour timer. Personally I feel that a balance of about 45 minutes will be ideal, caveat being it should be the current map.
The 30 min timer only affects kabam because we log and spend less (either resources or real money). Addiction is the only reason we have a 1hr timer.
Not at all. Not everyone is playing Map 6. Not everyone is in the same Time Zone. Which means by the time we go to bed, some are waking up to Maps already being completed. Add the fact that not everyone has a schedule that allows them to log on every half an hour to move. Some are lucky to manage every 2 and a half hours. That adds more pressure because inevitably people will want them to hurry up and move. What some people fail to see is that it's not helpful for everyone. There is a reason it's designed for 1 hour. Either way, it's 24 hours in between Maps.
