Can we increase the timer in GAC?

I don't know if I'm the only one but the 5 minute timer in GAC doesn't seem to be enough. I know some teams (GLAT) seem to be designed to time you out, but it is one of the least fun and most frustrating aspect of this game. It doesn't leave time to think in what is supposed to be a strategy game. Conquest has a few 10 minute timer battles, and that has felt so much better.  Or the battle speed can be adjusted. Maybe an 8x speed? The 4x speed animations are essentially the normal speed anyway.

    The usual response from the CGDF, "get good scrub!" because it's NEVER CG's fault for anything.  

    Animations take too long and they have been doing 5 minutes for a decade.  They either need to give us a 6x, or give us more time on the clock for all the actions being done by teams.  Especially since when they first release teams, they give them animations that take 15-20 seconds for a single move.  They've cut down animations in the past, but only after we complain enough about the clock.

    Of course, we're not all super awesome like you in GAC since you're #1 in Kyber, right?

    Glad to see the CG Whine Force still has its charter member 😂

  • I agree it's gotten ridiculous. Long animations, multiple assists, defense-heavy datacrons, six dot mods, relic 10 and now galactic legends like Ahoska and PKH that are designed for long battles -- all that happened since five minute 4x became standard. The idea that the parameters of the game designed 10 years ago are appropriate for now is kidn of silly. Either speed up the animations or grant more time or SOMETHING.

  • I'm fine with losing off of a 5 minute timer if it's based on the battle alone, but animations play a big part in how much time you lose I think. Going up against inquisitors is a big one for me, I don't have any teams that wipe the slate with them, and their animations (especially the probe droid lady) take so long.
