Enemy team gets to the bomb in the last second and now that means they won the round. It should not be like this. If the enemy team defuses the bomb and the diamond fills up all color before they manage to defuse properly, the bomb should explode anyway.

Hey folks! Appreciate you bringing this topic up because it did come in Alpha a few times.
Remember we are in Closed Beta and the team is absolutely open to your feedback. If you aren't happy with how the timer mechanics work, let us know why!
unfortunately, it just doesn’t make sense for the timer to pause while being defused
Could you elaborate on why?
Like other comments have stated, this is mostly a psychological issue. I agree bomb time could be reduced, but only slightly by like 10% at most. But the issue people have with bomb not blowing up while being defused is only due to their previous experience with these ge modes and it actually makes no difference to the bomb timer.
I personally believe this is a large contributing factor. Again the team is 100% open to feedback on this, but I'd personally like to provide them a deeper reasoning than "Well in X game..."
