Time limits on missions?

[kaisai]

Does this game have any time limits on any of the missions offered in the game?

[{NLR} C´est Moi ;D]

There's one mission I've run into, that turns into a timed mission at some point. You have to find and rescue 7 ants, before they drown. When you rescue the 2nd ant, the water starts rising.

So you have all the time you want to scout out the map before it happens, but it does turn into a time limit.

out of about 10 missions i've done now, there was 1 so far that had a time limit (gather x amount of resources in 15 min)

[Recalcitrant]

There are 6 missions with time limits. 2 to collect resources in a certain time, 2 to find hidden objects in a certain time, 1 to exterminate all the enemies in a certain time, and 1 to escort a unit to the end of a level in a certain time. Only the hidden object missions are strict with the timer, and easily completable on second try due to them being in the same place. There are also missions with "waves" of units, and some of these have a timer but it is essentially just there to tell you how long you need to defend.

That specific stupid quest made me quit the game. Horrible UI. Wasting hours to find workers when you can't even see them even if you're next to them against an invisible timer. I'm not even starting about the UI/mechanic to find them. Most stupid stuff i've ever seen in a game.

HI ManOFHughV§alue,

We're sorry this mission was not to your taste. It seems a few players did not like it either.

For your information, there actually is a bug where the ants are smaller than they should have been. For the next global patch (a patch for consoles and all PC versions) we are fixing that while also making this mission optional.

We don't have an ETA yet on this patch and might make a micro PC patch before that for specific PC issues. We are not yet ready to announce exactly what is planned regarding these, but be sure that at some point soon-ish we will have that announced.

Sorry this seems to have been such an inconvenience for you. We have heard you loud and clear and are making changes in that regards. Please bear with us while we are working on improving the game.
