Can we get some sort of limit on Training Camp activation period?

:Support: Bugs & Support

The amount of times I've been fucked over because my opponent went on a Training Camp right before the match start time, and it's getting kind of annoying honestly. And I can't be the only one who experiences this.
Even today I was doing really well with Poland but got booted by Brazil in the semis because they sneaked in a TC, I last checked with about 45m left 'til match start and they hadn't activated it, and I come back after dinner to see they beat me 2-5 due to their TC.
If there was a, let's say, 3 hour or so limit before the match where you can no longer activate a TC this would leave enough time to check and counter if necessary.

I assume there are some gamebasics employees here? u/RoelGB If not who would I need to point this message to?

I get what you mean and it's super annoying at times but I guess they made it that way and I don't think they'll update it either. It's annoying cause where I live my game times are anytime from 4am to 6am that's dumb cause I'm asleep at that time lol

They could implement a checkbox which you could choose to activate at the start of each match day and it would only activate a TC if your opponent triggers one.
Just a rough idea with very little thought put in.

i mean, using a secret training won't inform you about them using a training camp at any time so its not really gonna fix anything

For me a secret training stands for 95% chance of getting a TC. It only happened a few times that my opponent had a secret training and didn’t activate a TC. The 3 hours limit for activating a TC that OP suggests would not really help I think, as you can do the same: activate it just before the limit. What would you do to counter it then, if you can’t activate one yourself?

They could just keep the TC option enabled for the player whose opponent activated a TC.
So the timer would run out at 3 hours before match start, and player A activates a TC right before it ends, then the remaining 3 hours will not matter because they would still allow player B to react by activating their own TC.

I know this game more than 10 years and it has always been this way, i don't think they'll ever change it.

Probably not, but worth a shot.

Unless there is some sort of counter time you can't do much since the timer just moves.

Yeah, like I said in my other comment here

They could just keep the TC option enabled for the player whose opponent activated a TC.
