I noticed on a lot of games they now have 30 second ads... -_-
Why is this? AG officials trying to bring in more dough?
Anyways it's really annoying and the normal side/below/top ads are fine... Those i don't care about. But with a laggy computer adding even more time to my wait... Really? ._.

I would imagine it is for more money...either that or they are playing a cruel game with us...

Anyways...it is just 30 seconds. Nothing we can't handle no?

I don't find them that annoying to be honest. It takes me longer than thirty seconds to grab a cold drink from the mini-fridge right next to my desk. I'm poking it right now with my foot, see? See? It's pretty darn close.

If it so happens that I am not grabbing a drink, I just check my email. Roughly takes that long to open a new tab, bring up the page, scan through it all and close the tab again.

I already happen to rate lower those games which have really obtrusive ads...

Don't you think that is unfair to the game's developers EagleOfFire2? Their game shouldn't get a bad rating, simply because an advertisement is pasted in front of their masterpiece that contains multiple hours of blood, sweat and tears put into it you know... think about that. =)

And what's a really short 30 seconds on the 2,521,152,000 seconds of an average 80 year long life for the average person? Nah... not that much. Positive thinking...

I never experience any ads... It can be very boring with none... I have nothing to complain about, and yet, I am unhappy. *Quiet weeping*

But really, 30 secs is really not that much compared to the 2 hours you are gonna put into this game.

Don't rate games lower because of it! I've had those ads on every game I've played so I don't think that the developers had any say on the matter. I did notice though that this started about the same time that John left so I suspect it's connected with that and that the ads will go away when AG recovers.

There was a bit of a bug with how much it was playing. It should be fixed now, thanks for letting us know.

Oh ye of little faith... I'm sure it wasn't John's fault that these ads were running longer than they should be, besides... AG already recovered from that mild cold called advertisement shenanigans! Huzzah! =)

I was just referring to the advertisements starting in the first place.

Lol Devoidless... Not everyone has a mini-fridge next to their desk x)

That's really stupid. You rate games for their content lol...

I wouldn't play a game that long though. I would get sidetracked on youtube or go back to life or something xD

.
Also... It's not the actual time that bothers me. The problem is my computer lags and it ends up taking much longer... -_-

the ADs are ok plus their just ads and if u want to try out the game 30 secs does not really matter. Plus it builds patience.

I was creating a new statement. I only put a period in those quotes to separte it x)

Also this is half as annoying as those old CAPTCHAs... Remember those xP

Also. Most of the ads are gone for me now. What the heck...
