When did this change? Attackers can arm the bomb in seconds. While it takes the defenders ages to disarm. Throw in the bomb blows up pretty fast it seems. So defenders basically have one chance to disarm and if not. Well that’s GG.
They change the arming and disarm time for balance purpose. But it is true that the time is ridiculous. I never met enemy arming time that is that fast and friendly disarming that is that slow even in a stomping faction like Normandy Axis.
