Time to do all actions are to low. Animations and forced priority passes consumes a lot of time
I'm playing omniscience draft and am experiencing a lot of problems with the timers.
- There are a LOT of game actions in this format
- The board gets cluttered really fast. More sprites = lagging.
- Due to waterbending all players constantly have actions to do, which consumes timer when having to pass on every game action the opponent do. Thus, it is not possible to accumulate additional game timers. Even when autopassing this will not work as for every new action opponent do I still have to actively pass.
I have now lost several games due to not being able to perform my game actions. The lag, the cluttered game states and the animations makes the game unplayable. When trying to figure out which permanent is which, the game concludes that my time is up and I have to attack. I literally am trying to waterbend my exiled card (exiled by Hama, the Bloodbender), followed up by playing my Invasion Tactics for the win and suddenly I am in declare attackers. Try desperatly to gain full control in order to respond to the attack triggers (I want to sac clues to grow my attacking creature to Obsessive Pursuit), but triggers resolves and only then the game realizes I want to keep priority, which is of course to late.
Suggested solution:
- Game actions need to add time to the clock. I am not playing slow, I am just doing a lot of things.
- All features causing lag need to be possible to turn off. Especially animations. Stop splashing my screen because I am waterbending, no one cares.
- Time consuming formats need longer timers, especially Omniscience draft.
- The forced priority passes are good, we need them in order to know what we pass on. Some abilities are however constantly on and are tedious. E.g. crew mechanic which is always available (even when the vehicle is a creature). We need a way to be able to play Magic also when these are on the board without all time being consumed.
Edit:
I always have issues when I try to add a log file to error reports. Usually it works to update the submitted report and add it then. This time that doesn't work.
