20 minutes goes a lot quicker when you don't have time to think during opponent's turn. Since the AI can't get annoyed with slow play, why not disable the timer when playing against AI? (OK, I'm annoyed that I ran out of time against Mom.)
LMAO!! I haven't had it happen (yet!) but I've come close, around 3:00 left at the end of the match. Disabling the MP timer against the different AI opponents seems to be a reasonable suggestion to me. And/or also actually have the AI teams use up clock time. I don't know why it bugs me that they cannot lose by time out (and I know they very likely would not), but it does. *shrugs*
Jon has stated that untimed ai battles will be a feature. I guess it is part of the update for mp time limits
I haven't yet run out of time against the AI, but I've come pretty close. ... Actually, the main reason I've come close is that for awhile I thought AI battles were already un-timed (because I've seen Jon mention that they should be un-timed). So sometimes I go to get something to eat or something like that in the middle of an AI battle.
My goal is to beat Mom with over 18 minutes left. The closest I've gotten since I started paying attention was 17:54. I agree with the premise though. I'd say make it 40 minutes, so you can't just go afk indefinitely or get outside help or anything crazy, but still have all the time you'd get from a normal opponent (and then some).
