Say Kabam added an option where you can watch a 30 second ad (with a daily limit) and be rewarded with a small energy refill (the 5 ones), what would you think?

I like the idea because watching ads is optional

I dislike the idea. I'd worry that in the future, the game will have more and more ads

    If they start getting money from ads they may be a little bit less cash grabby.

    Less cash grabby? It’s kabam, knowing them you would watch an add for 2 units to get the energy, so for a dull 70 energy you spend 15 mins watching ads to save 2 units

    If it's ads where you can choose to activate it and not the kind where the ads is forced upon you then it's fine. Though I have so many small energy refills from solo and alliance objectives that it hardly matters to me.

    IF however the ads gave me 10 units per watch then I'm all for it.

    I would think for optimal gaming Kabam would have to redirect the ad request to an different server ... which would kick you out of the game & cause you to log back in... therefore I would say "No" to ads.

    Please spend some and don’t ruin the game with ads. Arena gives you all the unIts you need

    Gaming experience feels extremely cheap already with all these ridiculously bad cashgrab offers popping 10 times every time you are leveling, add ads on top of that and it will hit the bottom

    I’m with @AzKicker316 on this, they’ll definitely lose the veteran players, which is most of us whales

    Seeing ads after opening specific crystals is annoying enough

    All games are cash grabby. What do you expect?

    Not all, some are genuinely F2P with loads of ads. These days Kabam is reaching EA levels of pay to win.

    Kabam and EA are both terrible companies. Can’t decide which one I hate more

    If it's that bad, don't play the game bud.. damn. I think it'll work, when you click to use a small energy, it would give you the option to watch 30 seconds or use a refill. If it always stayed optional and out of the way, I don't see a big problem with it

    I would be ok with an Advertise once a day when log in so kabam can make the advertise another source of revenue

    Loads of ads is the money.
    Yeah i know that, that's why I said 'loads of ads'

    All ill say is their other game uses ads for 15 "units" daily and 9 energy points every 4 hours. Which are not activated at all unless you decide it. Plus the buttons for said action are in no way distracting or in the way of anything. It works over there, it could work here.

    I’d be ok with the ads only if they give that control to players instead of by default thing... just like the auto play in quests.. you know when to use it and when to avoid

    I hate ads. I pay to NOT have ads or commercials.
    Whales spend enough on crystals anyway, they should have the best people on the planet working on this game for how much money it makes lol

    Honestly i think ads are a bad idea.

    Its optional learn to read mate
    We can think it's a bad idea whether it's optional or not. That's not personal. Just don't think it's a good idea.
