Turn timers? - WildMantaRay - 12-29-2012 07:47 AM

Are there any plan to add turn timers in the future? Maybe have the option to select a few time constraints or unlimited, that way there is the option to play a casual game over a week, or a game at a quicker pace.

Not sure how hard it would be to add this, just throwing out at idea.

Thanks for the great game!

Any opinions on this?

This has been brought up in several threads. No talk from OML on the matter, that I can think of. I doubt it will happen, but you never know.

It would make tournaments a lot easier. Maybe make this only in pass n play or friendlies.

Yeah I think it's definitely an option that can improve the competitive scene.

Turn timers would certainly make for more synchronous and fluid game play. I'm surprised its not a feature already.

Carcassonne uses a 90 second timer for their quick play matches. 90 seconds would be harsh for Outwitters, but perhaps an adjustable one could work. They use an ELO based rating system though, and have a seperate rating group for the quick play and no time limit asynchronous play.

I think that instituting a time limit for non-league Outwitters games would be a great option.

Definitely would be nice to sit down and play a full match, kind of like a pass and play except not local. I've found the pass and plays are more enjoyable because everything in thecurrent match is fresh in your mind, nod not spread out over a few hours or days.

Please developers add turn timers for league matches. This is the. Only downfall of this game ... I can't stand playing league games and having to wait for 2 days between each turn... It's brutal.
