[bug?] Endless Timer

nyjn

Hey,

I just cleared wave 130 with 2 or 3 seconds left on the clock, but it still tells me that the time ran out.. It wasn't too bad this time because loots sucked, but it's been happening quite a bit when I get double bearman at waves 129/130 due to only having a purple level 44 weapon..

Wondering if it happens to other people and if a fix was in the works, or if it's a newer issue.

This happened to me even if there was 5 seconds left. The timer isn't all it's cracked up to be.

this happens to me often...I lost a chest upgrade earlier today due to this.

Still randomly getting the time has run out screen when I enter the tower, so I end up losing the 20 tokens I used to get in.

I don't get the opportunity to actually enter the tower it just goes straight the timer out screen :-(

The problem is that the wave doesn't end until the last monster is killed, gushes blood, falls down ever so slowly, exhales and is ready to be eaten by rot-worms. If the timer hits zero before that too bad so sad.

Poor UX design plain and simple.

This happens to me sometimes, like someone else said it's waiting for him to fall down before it registers as being "killed", at which point it will start the usual 5 second level countdown.

If you get the timeout failure screen but you did get the last guy, just wait a few seconds. You will notice that underneath the loot/failure screen you can see the 5 second timeout. Once that times out then you can continue to the next level normally.

If you don't see the "continue" button try tapping the place where it usually is. In the rare case that I kill the last guy but still time out, I have always been able to continue with this method.

Seriously, that works?

I'll keep that in mind.

Then this is clearly a bug. I always figured it was simply a problem with a finish line extended out further than it looked. Still there in a fixed place but not where it appears to be. That would be bad UX. The timer running in the background panel shows that the design intent was accurate but the implementation is bugged.

Please fix this

Happened to me three times yesterday. Between 4 and 2 seconds.

The game should check at 0 sec to see if everything is dead, but it doesn't it continues on, u need at least 4 seconds left when the last mob dies
