Remove 60 second turn limit, or increase the turn time limit depending on how many players are out.
Try reinforcing 5 territories with specific troop amounts to attack 20 territories or more, and then fortify appropriately, depending how the battles went, all in 60 seconds. Pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying gameplay, having every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game decided by who failed to manoeuvre because of a stupidly short turn time limit in the end-game.

EDIT: Yes I know I can select games with longer time-limits, but it takes me half an hour to find a decent one, since 90% of the games are set to 60s turn limits. This is because the master-players exploit the short turn limits to easily best newer players who aren't quick with this game's clunky UI. And because new players who make games don't understand that end-game requires 90 or 120 second turns to actually play...

dont play matches with 60 second turn time. set your own match up. its not hard. why ruin games for others because you cant be bothered to create your own match?

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhhhhhhhhhh. i need to ruin the game for everyone else because im too lazy to create a match.

thats how you sound

How would turning the game from unplayable to playable ruin it? Please explain this to me. Please explain to me exactly how starting a game with 60 second limits per player, and then extending that time limit depending on how many players are currently eliminated, would ruin the game.

Hurry up and explain it, or admit how stupid your comment is.

you are the one with the problem. there are multiple options for turn time periods. stop playing 60 second turn time matches. if there are no matches with longer turn times available, create your own match, after you adjusted the turn time settings.

its not hard. you are just stupid

You can wait to join any game that doesn't have a 60 second timer or you can create your own game with your own settings. Problem solved.
Avoid 60 second turn time limit games.
The biggest reason for this is, 60 second turn games take longer.
I know weird, but true.
Because, as the poster stated, you don't have enough time for a well thought out turn.
It's my experience that in 60 second games players are far less likely to eliminate other players or take risks.
Not the way the game should be played.
Ninety seconds is pretty optimal, but I agree, 60 seconds is far too short and causes games to drag out far too long. That's why I avoid them.

So when all of the avail games are 60 second games and nobody joins my 120 second games, I am just being stupid for suggesting the developers make the game better? How so? By making it playable?

Why don't you go ahead and describe exactly why increasing turn time-limits every time a player is eliminated is a stupid idea? If you can't, probably should admit you are stupid and delete your arrogantly ignorant comment. sonny boi.

theres plenty of people playing games longer than 60 seconds. i see them daily. i avoid them. yes, you are being stupid. because you dont have patience to wait for an opponent, you want to ruin the game for others. dont even bother responding to me, you petulant child. 60 seconds is the perfect amount of time for turns. i play these games daily, maybe 5 - 10 matches a day. all quick games. the game is fully playable. im a master after starting all over again within 2 weeks playing 60 second matches. you are just an idiot, and nothing more. get good, train your cognitive abilities so you dont have to sit there for 2 minutes dribbling at the screen figuring out where to move, and learn to have patience for others to join your matches. sometimes it takes 5 minutes or maybe more for someone to join my matches. i think you are a young child used to triple A titles with fast match loading times. learn patience. you are stupid. there is no other explanation. you are a stupid, petulant child

Extending turn times every time a player is eliminated is only logical. As the game goes on each player is going to have more options and more to do each turn, therefore longer turns would result in simply better games while keeping the time between turns more consistent.

Thanks for supporting my argument that Masters like exploiting this major game flaw by forcing new players to struggle with short turns so you can attain easier wins. No idea why else you would be defending bad game design so aggressively.

60 seconds is garbage, even with the few people who troll these forums, there are already others who actually agree with my point, seems like you are too stupid to get it and are projecting your failings onto me. Some plays in this game are literally impossible to perform in 60 seconds. I guess you just enjoy the game being dominated and dictated by short turns that limit strategy, and prefer winning against nubs in quick games, instead of playing an actual game of risk, properly...

"i suck at a game because im new so i should ask the devs to ruin for everyone else"

people like you disgust me

Conveniently, you neglected to describe how my suggestion would ruin it for anyone. Making my job easy, not even having to say anything new and just winning this debate.

well, is self explanatory. it increases turn times, thus making games longer....

its this simple, if you dont have the cognitive ability to assess your future moves, whilst enemy players are taking their turns, you dont have the cognitive ability to be playing strategy games. go play a fps game or something mindless lol

You must be playing baby maps for babies or something. There is no way you can plan in advance with fog of war. There is no way you can consistently attack like 30 territories on advanced maps, while dynamically reacting to things like how many troops you discover in the fog or how many troops you lose, and leave time to manoeuvre, which if you ♥♥♥♥ up you lose. So you are probably just exploiting simple maps and strategies to repeatedly beat nubs who don't have enough time to even finish their turn because they didn't even turn off the animations.

But you have to admit, that as the game goes on, the turns will take longer, because you have more to do... right? Therefore, shouldn't you be advocating for the turns to be shorter, like 10 or 20 seconds or something at the start of the game? And then maybe as players get eliminated, it would max out at 60 seconds or something.

See how my idea of lengthening the turn time as players are eliminated could be applied to actually make games shorter than your current games?

That's how ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid you actually are. Not only arguing against an idea you would benefit from, but actually embarrassing yourself by being an arrogant douche about it.

you are just making excuses for sub-average cognitive abilities. you are just bad at the game, have poor experience, and no matter how much you cry whilst you refuse to set up your own matches with your own settings because you dont have the patience to wait for an opponent, i am still here laughing at you holding on for dear life to your absolutely stupid thoughts
