I think it’s disgusting to force an unsolicited popup ad immediately upon opening the game which cannot be cancelled. It’s annoying enough to show it once. But every time the game is opened with no way to say ok i’ve read this leave me alone is just bad mannered.

Not sure if disgusting, but definitely annoying. Disgusting it would be if you kept getting the popup until buying their latest DLC.

Hi @Wolfgang.
If you are still seeing a pop-up when loading into the game, could you provide a screenshot?
Or are you referencing to a specific in-game News / Announcement?
Thanks!
Yes, surely as a employee of the company, YOU call it an in-game news announcement. I don’t have a problem with the news/announcements section on the top-right side of the home page where you have to click on a thing and it brings up a popup because you chose to click on it.
What I have a problem with is when one of those “news announcements” comes in the form of a forced popup window as soon as you open the game that you have to close out of before you can PLAY the game.
If you’re being genuinely honest about it, this is an advertisement popup (granted, it’s self-advertisement for your own games and it would be far worse if it was for other products that other companies paid you to insert into your game, but still, it’s an ad nonetheless. And it’s an unnecessary forced popup window in a full price video game.
Just so you know, this pop up only appeared once for me. I don’t think it’s intentional for it to appear for you every time you open the game. It must be a bug and that’s why he asked for the print, to fix it.

just wanted to report back that i’ve opened the game twice today without the automatic popup. i’ll post back again if it starts happening again. i definitely saw it a lot more than once, though.
