How is the language of the ad determined?
Please remove "Real World" ads from game -> Giants Devs
Re: Why is the game serving ads?
Either GIANTS should remove these external ads and make it internal ads like ROBLOX did. but at this point just entirely remove the ads, we don't want to have the age rating go higher than previous farming games.

What AAA price?? Its not even half of a real AAA games price...!thumbwiz wrote: ↑Fri Nov 26, 2021 11:01 am This is their display of greed. Players are charged Triple A price for a game that isn't even close to Triple A quality, then have their bandwidth used anytime they play. Easy fix for PC players, but console players are hosed. Does Sony or MS have a policy on this type of sneaky behavior?
Don't be surprised if you see micro-transactions in the next version.
Re: Why is the game serving ads?
Ugh I wish they would advertise stuff like that so I actually care what’s on the billboard haha. Half the stuff that ends up being controversial I have never heard of the product in the first place so until someone got upset about I think it’s a made up sign.

Re: Why is the game serving ads?
I'm anti-adverts in general and am disappointed GIANTS chose to do this. Especially as it's right next to the base farms. It's comes across as just greed, as they'll only get a tiny amount of revenue, which shouldn't be needed now they'll have extra revenue as a percentage won't be going to Focus.
Still, so long as they're not mandatory (and never are) for modmaps I can largely ignore it.

Having asked that question earlier and not had a reply I am hoping it's just a case of either not seeing it or too busy for a reply rather than not having the answer I'd want.this_is_gav wrote: ↑Sat Nov 27, 2021 11:47 am

I dont like ads either but if they stick to the brands I can see in the game anyway I wouldnt mind.
Re: Why is the game serving ads?
I haven’t seen the ads yet.
Guess this is a good thing. Means they’re not intrusive.
(Is intrusive the right word here? Me being a Dutch guy…)
Billboards are a real life thing. If we’re going to have a few, why not have real ads on there. I mean, what do I care?! I just drive passed them, minding my own business

Yup intrusive is correct but I wouldn't expect anything less from the Dutch . Most Dutch I've met, spoke better English than me .iwan073 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 27, 2021 1:34 pm I haven’t seen the ads yet.
