How do I block the annoying ads?

Postby svodnik » Thu Jun 24, 2021 6:05 pm

I paid full price for this game and yet when I logged in I'm force to see a giant ad for skins that I have to close down. Also the main menu has an ad for something web game. These kind of practices are okay in free 2 play games, but completely UNACCEPTABLE for a full priced game. How do I disable them?

Do you mean ads or offers for ToS, or ads for somethign else than ToS?

they arent ads, theyre daily deals that offer bundles of items for cheaper than the shop prices. The main menu has always had promotions for things too, i dont think they can be disabled..

It surprises me it's taken so long before seeing someone else bring up this problem, but yeah this is incredibly annoying. Example: https://i.gyazo.com/c892b080a1fb3b5aac7 ... 8c2217.jpg

I can understand offering and showing deals to persuade players into spending more money, but there is no good justification for full-screen popups which will get closed probably upwards of 90% of the time on an already paid game.
And yes, they are advertisements. Being first-party rather than third-party doesn't make them not ads.

That actually makes sense.

I still hope one day the game will have private lobbies. They would really help.
Also, please nerf vampire hunters.

I made a post about it not long ago viewtopic.php?f=39&t=115982

they are not going to make an option to turn them off even though many players are not interested in them and I find it absurd because it's a paid game but ya what can you do
