The drop pod timer needs to be increased

[Anti]

The timer should be a minute instead of 30 seconds.

I understand wanting to keep people moving towards the end and cutting down the time of each run, but if the timer was increased to a minute the game would be a lot more fun each run.

Or even just a 10 to 15 second notification so you know where it will land in advance. That way you can try and plan your route before the 30 seconds starts to count down. I always end up missing out on so much exp because of this

30 seconds is just crazy when the swarms got in full mulitiplying swing after you focused the boss all the time. the radar should also show bugs moving probably so you dont escape only to run into some wall of chitin.

+1 it's way too unforgiving in it's current state, and considering they already have the "Bugs are growing stronger" mechanic it doesn't make any sense to rush players towards the drop pod since the game is punishing players that stall by default.

+1 how often have i ran through enemies to reach the ship ...

[Azadyn]

+1

[the.headiest]

100% agree!

[Wake and Brake]

Agreed. Could start 45 and then if needed 60sec

Would be nice if we could decide when to call the pod like in original game... or at least give people 3 mins to finish their loot after boss kill and then 30 sec to board up... this is too hectic...

This isn't that type of game.

That's interesting. I have yet to struggle to ever make it. I missed it once and that was by my own greed.

[Cogsworth]

I like it a bit hectic so the risk vs reward greed gameplay is still there but it needs just a tad longer. Even 5-10 seconds more would go a very long way.

You have more than enough time to run to the drop pod, quit trying to grab all gems cause your greedy.

[spolle]

what s the time now,sometimes I see extra time? am I wrong,wondering?

[Ragnarok]

30 seconds is fine. You always have enough time to get to the pod. After nearly 10 hours of game time I only just now once missed the pod, and that was only because I wanted to finish mining some morkite then had to dig through some walls and go around a swarm. Once missed pod due to 30 second time limit in 10 hours. You have plenty of time. Unless you get greedy, which is your own fault.
