    Ads in the Bunker

    Why is this happening all of a sudden? Is anyone else getting ads every two races in the bunker? I know we get them everywhere else, which is fine, but I specifically remember a topic on this forum many many many moons ago about how there should never be ads in the bunker. I believe this happened before and nobody was cool with it.

    Something that is time sensitive such as a bunker match should not be delayed by having to deal with an ad! If there is a heated battle going back and forth down to the wire, and I have to sit through an ad, I am gonna be very upset, and I'm sure most other riders would be too!

    Help?

    My second account (Which ive not bought anything on) always gets adverts in the bunker. Just the way P2P games are.

    This just started happening to me this week, and hasn't happened in a couple years.

    I wonder if this is an Android vs iOS thing, cause I have never seen an ad (besides the coin/gem/ticket offers) pop up anywhere.

    Btw, I have iOS 9.3

    Also iOS (10.2). I've been getting bunker ads for a while now. Prior to KTM rally I don't think I saw any bunker ads.

    ...and then I heard that buying (anything) in-game removes all unprompted ads. Now I'm just waiting for the right offer...

    Hi justinman114, this is a problem we're looking into. Ads are supposed to be disabled in the Bunker, so this is definitely an issue. Are the ads popping up between races, or before you start a showdown?

    Hey Negitron. They usually pop up between races, I don't think I have seen one just from entering the bunker or starting showdowns. It seems very sporadic as well, it doesn't always happen, which is why I assumed it was unintended.

    Hope this helps! And thank you for the response!

    I mentioned this happening in a thread back in May (http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...1#post11734243), so it's been going on at least since then.

    I used to have ads come up a couple years ago maybe, but I have not seen one since. My iPhone is jailbroken on 9.0.2 and I have AdBlocker 2 installed in Cydia. Y'know those free gems, tickets and coins you get after watching the 30 second ad? Well I don't get those ads anymore. My AdBlocker probably has something to do with it. Deal with ads and get free gems, tickets and coins or use AdBlocker and forget about the free items. The latter is more appealing to me.

    I don't race a lot in the Bunker but when I do ads are actually popping up on regular basis exactly after every 3rd race. Hope this information will be useful for devs.
