Please reduce TDM time limit
Personally, I have been thoroughly enjoying the new TDM mode. I've been using it as my warm up, and it's been working quite well for me. My main problem has been the match timer limit being at 30 minutes. In my humble opinion, that is simply much too long for this kind of mode. I had back-to-back matches last night, that killed my Apex vibe for the day, and I had to hop off, Lol.
Full disclosure: The time limit is ONLY a problem BECAUSE of the amount of people leaving games. With full teams, matches play out in a timely manner
My issue: Last night, I had back-to-back matches in TDM that took over 40 minutes combined. Both matches, only 1 enemy remained after we hit about 10 kills. First match, 17 min 22 seconds before we finally got to 50 kills. The 2nd match is the one that made me hop off for the night. Only 1 enemy remained, and they went AFK. I honestly didn't even know there WAS a time limit, until this match. After 25 minutes of being utterly frustrated with being stuck in a match that was making virtually no progress, a notice popped up, that the match had 5 minutes remaining. So apparently, there is a 30 minute match timer for TDM, in case anyone reading this is unaware. That 2nd match took 25 minutes and 20 seconds. That's insane for TDM!!! Over 40 minutes for 2 total matches...
Like I said above, the issue is more with the people leaving, thus resulting in a long, drawn out match. I know it may take some time to get backfilling to work properly, which would effectively negate the issue, but for the time being, can we reduce the match time limit down from the current 30 minutes? 15 minutes max, in my opinion.
If an overall match time limit is not on the table, is there any way it could be made to where the time limit reduces ONLY in matches where player count drops below a certain level? Perhaps have it to where if any team drops down to 3 players, the match limit drops to 15 minutes, or something to that effect?
Anyway, that's just my two cents on the match time limit, in response to the unfortunate situation I found myself in last night. And yes, I know I could have just quit, but I needed my 10th win for the event tracker. Other than this issue, I've been really enjoying this mode. Don't get me wrong, the team balance is an issue, but not one that ruins it for me. The people leaving, and in result, the long match times, are what takes the wind out of my sails
