Hi! LSZ is a really good game and I've been playing it for quite some time (started literally years ago, took a long break, got back to it recently) but it does require the player to reset/refresh it quite often, sometimes a few times in a row - it can jam on loadup if its during busy hours or weekend, or crash in the middle of a mission or while loading game maps (right now I'm on my 3rd refresh as writing this, only to collect hourly supplies from game, which takes around 2 -3 minutes of actual gameplay).

I understand the necessity of ads for ArmorGames (which is why I have no adblocks on my end for your page) but every page refresh means I gotta watch the ad and if they dont have a skip button, even if they are only 30 seconds long, that adds up to the wait/load time. Right now some have it and some don't, could you add SkipAd button to these ads please? Tagging @RavePenguin per UnleashedUponMankind's advice from game page comment section

I screencapped some of those I had so far: Example Ads No SkipButton
Playstation VR, Oyunlar1, Trivago (no timer on it, its around 30s), LIDL, Warspear (only allows skip past half ad)

Additionally this game relies heavily on timed content, some buyable equipement is time-limited (usually 30 minutes but some 15) so the extra reload + a couple adds can result in losing the bonus stuff. Example shop screencaps

@Curio Unfortunately ads are the way we keep paying for our servers and making great games. 30 Seconds is industry standard, and we have no control over if an ad has a skip button or not.

That being said, I gave you 30 days of Ad-Free Gaming+ - and you can also buy further time to remove ads off Armor Games completely while still supporting great developers and the website.

Oh holy frickfrack QwQ
I absolutely suck at social responses and stuff so there's no way I can word this right but thank you so much!

I didnt know about the industry standard stuff, I just saw that game had a major outage and then ads appeared and some were longer and some were skippable and I had no idea why (and the AdFreeGaming option, I got game-tunnel-vision, I see shiny, I click shiny like a magpie on caffeine so I completely missed it and didnt realize its an option xD) so thank you so much for explaining and thank you for the AdFree+ option, and especially for replying and explaining (this really means a lot for me, heart-uplifting-wise!) The game crashes and has its hard moments and stuff and it really got me down back then but this really-really helps, morale boost style

I'm out of words, so again, thank you, this really made me feel better and my day better, and wish you all the best!
