    Past few days the game has frozen on me several times when I start a new game, the advert comes on, when i have the option to skip, i click it, but then it just freezes

     

    Very Very irritating

    Hello. We're looking into the claims of increased ads and crashing due to them. Do you recall what the add was specifically? Any additional information helps.

    WGTyphoon:
    Do you recall what the add was specifically?

    The Ad is the Coca cola one in London with some dance game. It runs for about 45 seconds. It has a skip button but the second you press skip it just the freezes the game to a blank white screen with the loading bar at 100% at the bottom.

    If you let it play the full ad it works, however it's not so good when 3 other players are waiting the 45 seconds while you load through the advert.

    Edit : Just tried to watch a replay and got the Ad again so pressed skip to freeze it  and sent an error report.

    Since this minute long ad arrived I have had real difficulty playing and have had more games not start than actually start as people are either trying to skip the ad and freezing themselves out or are becoming impatient and ditching the game. I think WGT is great but must admit I am starting to become extremely frustrated with this ad and the problems it is causing.

    This Coca Cola ad is a menace !!

    Already reported it elsewhere.

    U get screwed whether u try 2 skip it or wait the full time.

    I'm surprised there isn't an ad in the middle of it - it's so long.

    Get it sorted WGT - or I'm off !!

    Cheers

    Al
