Do you watch the ads after battle for increased rewards?

I'm really curious about the results. I have done over 5k battles. Imagine watching an ad after every of those battles? No thanks.

 

Every time, all the time during a win. Can't get enough of those resources and pearls. If it's a good game but a loss, I still watch the ads.

 

Only after a good win. Can't turn down 40000 gold in this economy.

 

If I watch the game to the end I usually also watch the ad [or well, mentally tune out for 30seconds].

 

If you play this game a lot it's so worth it to be VIP

 

I would if it didn't eat the data usage, I know it's only 30secs but it adds up when you play for 4-5hrs a day. Sadly I'm poor only can afford 5 gigs a month and how I play battle bay it runs out usually the 19th most of the time.

 

The only trick I know of is paying VIP... One coul suppress ads but you're still likely subject to the 30 second timer, so it's pointless.

I also watch ads only for wins, but even at that rate I calculated I would be spending 1.5 hours/month watching ads. The question is whether my time is worth more than $6/hour (the cost of a VIP subscription). I think the VIP subscription is too expensive though... for $5/month I'd pay every month. For $10/month I'd do it for a month or two, and go back to ads, and when I get ad fatigue would just stop playing. Rovio would make a lot more off of me by reducing VIP pricing. I may consider $10 worth it if they also threw in a $5 special every month (1000 pearls plus a few epic crates).

 

please edit your post, remove my own quote on your post.. thankss

 

I watch them only when I win currently. Gotta renew VIP so I can just leave games when I die

 

I usually watch ads when I win but also when I lose and still get 10k+ rewards....It's good when you are not spending any money on game.
My mobile data plan is 1GB/per day every month, so not a problem watching ads

 

I think ads are repeated and are downloaded offline before-hand, so no need to worry. Do you see repeated ads, or a variety of different ads?

 

Yeah right.... Downloaded and saved once in phone and then the game keeps running it from it's cache memory I guess.

 

You're almost the cheapest individual I've ever "seen" play this game...the other was a 1200 Infamy player in our guild when we instantly kicked him after he lamented to being "forced" to drop Infamy in order to get the pearls for the 10 win achievement...because if the game was going to "force" him to spend money, he was well within his rights to do everything in his power to avoid it.

If a $10/month is considered too expensive or out of your budget, I lament to imagine what sort of life you lead...an extra electronic gadget, 2-3 extra mochas in the morning. A trip to McDonald's when you're running late to work...

It's ok to admit you're cheap. But don't pretend to convince us $10 for an entire month of avoiding ads, a daily free market refresh, and quicker training is way too much $$$ or not enough bonuses. Your time might be ok spent staring at the screen watching the same stupid 30 second ad for the 18th time. But personally I'd rather hit the "X" after I die and jump into another immediately.

 

Let's not insult people because they don't think VIP is worth it. I don't think it is either, it's $10 a month for 2 things I already get for free, a useless chat, and somewhat-faster crew training. If I couldn't get that 50% bonus or that daily shop refresh at all without paying, it would be a better deal. I would suggest beefing up VIP to 75% rewards or, as that guy said, adding some pearls to the deal. As it is, I would just be paying to have the game hassle me less, which is a little stupid.

I only watch ads if I win, but I only started doing that after reaching Master 1. Below that, it seemed like a waste of time.

 

VIP subscription is a crap as far as the crew training is considered and the captain levels available in the game.
You get 20% faster crew training. So, what others could complete in 37.5 days, you can complete in 30 days. Or take it a little bigger, what others can do in 2.5 years, you can do it in 2 years by paying monthly for 24 months. I mean is it okay to have just this much time benefit in crew training?
