40 min Time limit on missions..

[BlackViper]

Why? isnt it enough that we get 2 warbonds a month that probably costs 10-12 euro each wich will be quite expensive if you want all of them...

Now they have put TIME LIMIT on missions aswell??.. holy hell.. whats next..

What is your thoughts...
when the time runs out, enemies get more in numbers? :)
A Big mini boss maybe? : )
Extreme weather like fog starts? :)

or just gameover you lost :(

i hate timers... <3

I think you misunderstood. it's a 40 minute timer once you're in-mission.

Depending on the implementation, it could be "Mother ♥♥♥♥♥♥ we are constantly five minutes short of the big payoff!". OR if could be "That timer everyone brags is a hardcore pressure mechanic to make you risk vs reward blah blah blah is actually making sure you get paid more often instead of lose everything, because you have to punch out more often"

Different Genre, but Shipbreakers has a timer free mode instead of a 15 minute shift main mode passed off as the "Relaxed" version. Except when a single major thing goes wrong, a bug busts the best part (or the game crashes) you are ♥♥♥♥♥♥ after taking your sweet time for 30-60 minutes, while the "challenging" timer mode is making sure you keep getting most of your pay and progression even if you ♥♥♥♥ up the last bit.

But because one has a timer, and the other has no timer. No amount of evidence would convince people the free time mode was a trap. Because timers are ALWAYS big boy challenge! Why? uh... because they are annoying?

And normally I do like things on the player's terms. But yeah, sometimes timers are the baby option disguised as the challenge. Even if I can understand irritation with any time limits at all.

there is an achiev for getting out AFTER 40min so clearly it does not just end. my guess was the extra xp would obviously be zero. but some of the other comments pointed out things that may be true too. dont know where they saw or heard that though

Hmm... One theory I had before was that once the timer hits zero, the enemies step it up to the insane. Would make sense from a tactical standpoint, it may take around 40 minutes for the hostile main force to arrive after planetfall.

its confirmed by the devs, when the timer runs out the game continues as is. but you can not call down strategems anymore.. like nukes, misiles, stuff like that. you can only call down ammo, or escape pods.. so it just makes the game a little bit harder thats all.

Oh no if you dont complete the round in this time limit we just made up. We will remove the content that you spent so long grinding to get and improve. Sounds kinda dumb.

yea if you die you lose everything including XP except if you "by luck find those store real money points"..

but you would lose everything else..
so its kind of,, crusial that you finish it within 40 min, cause without all the bombs and sutch as backup i belive the game would be to hard to finish a whole mission .,

What? They add a timer to the game?
Why?

Don't get me wrong, 40 min is a lot of time in such games. But i freaking hate it when devs are trying to force me to always look on a timer.
Most disgusting mechanic ever.
The one thing i love about games like DRG is also that sometimes i just want to take my time and mess around. Hell i remember once having a rung where i was 2 hours long in a mission just to dig around or build rollercoaster pipes.

its a 40 min timer that dont give you a "game over" but you can no longer call down bombs, air strikes, or anything like that.

Yeah even if it will only be a simple restriction on stratagems, it is still annoying to have any kind of time restraint.

But what i noticed in all these gameplay videos is that the camera is always on the right shoulder.
I really hope they added a shoulder swap option.

So if i dont meet this random time limit the devs made up they are going to restrict me from using core mechanics and content in the game. Content that i already had to work and grind for? Again sounds like a pretty dumb idea.

yea i agree.. the only thing you will be able to call down is extraction Pods.. to end the mission. but everything from weapon, ammo, and explosive/bombs you cant call anything of that..

♥♥♥♥♥♥ move.. like who the hell thought of this.. when i play a game, i do it to get away from real life stress... not stress through the game.. feels like now we have to decide about doing the mission or try and find hidden credits for warbonds..
