the video does not play even with forced reload. i can not collect bonus
Videos : Vienna Ad YouTube ads don't offer completion
-
I keep getting the Vienna ads which are over 5 minutes long. Even if I wait to the end of them, they just go to a playlist and don't close. They seem to be set to a preference and kills the possibility of collecting the bonus.
-
You can press the play button in the middle of the screen, it's a YouTube video. But even if you play all 5+ minutes of it, you still won't get the bonus. It will cycle forever through it's play list there is no end. Bonuses are dead.
-
Another solution, since they don't seem to be interested in fixing this issue. Click on the title of these youTube videos. That will take you to YouTube where you can down-vote them. It won't stop them from appearing, but if the devs don't want to fix the issue and want to unending push 5+ minute ads on us we can make it unattactive to advertise here.
The devs should disable the YouTube ads until they fix it. this is a mess.
-
Demand a skip button on ALL videos (including Vienna & all the silly travian game videos which we have all seen 1mln times)
-
I have the exact same issue. This is the ONLY ad that will play.
You can watch a 30 second countdown on your phone if you don't like it, heh.
-
Stare at a 30 second countdown screen. It's as much fun as this.

The problem isn't really the Vienna ad (outside of all of them being insanely long), it is that the container in Rail Nation doesn't support YouTube ads. The temporary fix, would be to disable the YouTube ads until it can run successfully in the container.
In Phase 2 you could offer a skip after 30 seconds of the ad running. -
Thank you very much, the videos have been reported and we will work to remove or fix them asap. Apologies for the inconvenience.
-
By any chance, did any of you watch one of these Vienna videos to the end and see which ID it had?
For Youtube videos the ID is only shown at the very end of the video. We have forwarded the issue but it would be faster to resolve with the ID. -
ok, I did finally get the ID!

All the videos seem to key off that same ID -
Didn't pay my bonus prestige and cash after I watched the video. Happened to me several times so I closely check again its not giving me bonus they promised when watching video.

They are aware and are working to remove them. The YouTube ads don't work inside that container.
The worst part of it is that these come up more than 90% of the time now.

I just though of another simple solution.
Put a timer on the video dialog, when the 30 seconds completes, mark the video as watched (return true). It would require modification of theVideoStart()
{
Timer(30)
bViewed = true}
OnClose()
{
If (bViewed)
{
bBonus=true
}
else
{
RestartDialog()
}
}

Hey wyzerd,
thank you very much for the ID!
Now we can fix the issue faster.
Kind regards

Will I be able to get few bonus engines instead of my missing prestige?
That will be great.....
