Please, please, faster speeds or longer battle times

This comes up frequently, but its so frustrating. Just lost GAC round because time out vs. Rey with Nest DC.  Happens with other teams /toons all the time also.  I had just killed rey, ben and nest (for 2nd time). Would have won match if faster speeds or longer match time.  This is looooooong past due.  Game's "default" speed now is 4x, which used to be the "fast" speed. Try playing at 1x now.  Matches shouldn't be decided because abilities take to long to complete.  It should be easy to implement a 6x and 8x speed.  Wheres the downside?

  • No need ... Rey with Nest is easily killed off within the 5 minute limit. Get a better counter. Cere/Malicos for instance...

    Hes right tho alot of datacron or team are now making tons of assist hence wasting tons ton of time. Think between attack amd there you go timed out. Queen amidala team is a good exemple too. My JMK almost ran out of time and yet he block tm gain. 

    The ''good'' counter like you said sure... In GAC or TW you need both offense and defense team. Your opponent suprise you then gg the good counter become a 2-3 fight attempt.

    The fight do last way longer than before. People complain more and more about how game calendar put everything in the same week. So reducing battle time or gaining a 6x will make it more than fair.

    Also hes also right. 1x animation feel like 0.5x speed when 4x feel like actual 1x animation. They could also boots animation speed correcting the 1x-2x or 4x with correct speed. 

    The amount of team you cant beat using 1x is ridiculous.

  • 1x does seem like slo-motion. Was it always this slow, before the 2x and 4x options were added? Might have to go watch some old YTs...

    A "disable animations" option might be fun. Against some teams (esp. Conquest) you might enter the battle and have it end immediately with your team disappeared. The old "never got a turn" lament. But it would be quick. ;)

    You're missing the point. Its not about 1 battle. I could detail a dozen different battles that time out due to increasing animation time of characters and DC effects.  Its just an ongoing problem that continues to get worse, and theres no reason we shouldnt have faster gamespeeds at this point

    I would love to turn off animations and cutscenes. I rarely find time or speed being a factor in a battle, but I do think newer characters and mechanics are being introduced which are starting to extend battles a little. Kneesaa is one of the big ones here, and I've timed out several battles using my ewoks with her, so fortunately I don't use them very often.

    They should resolve the brokenness of some impossible to win situations when you are clearly winning. For instance I've had my entire CLS team vs Jango, but he had his invincibility and I kept removing his turn meter. Yes it's on me for not having thought about it when I went into the battle, but when it's 5 v 1 for 4m30s and my only options are to timeout or exit the battle when obviously I would have won had his invincibility not been on indefinitely, there should really be a guard against that kind of thing - like being able to skip a turn at the cost of my own tm or something.
