Has happened twice to me now where I got 4 videos instead of 3, and 4 rewards!
Good way to increase revenue while also rewarding your players!

    This just happened to me for the first time. If this is a permanent change and not a glitch, I approve.

    Ditto, though if they make money, put it in every roll.. I dont care, I can close my eyes instead of watching West Point Compass ad about the wranglers for the gazillionth time

    I never watch the ads, I just press play, do something else, and come back to it a minute later and it's always done, then I get the prize.

    They could put ads up all day I would make them a killing

    Same here. Give me those extra cards and fuel. Mostly fuel.

    Fuel is a kinda limited reward though, often my missions are so long that I am capped or close to capped so even 2 fuel is completely worthless to me. Maybe some sort of check when the rewards come up - if you are below half the fuel cap it puts fuel in the chest "loot table", but if you have plenty of fuel it removes fuel from the loot table.

    +1

    Nothing frustrates me more than having a box wasted by receiving fuel when your tank is nearly full.

    It's like when you get a level 2 rifle when all your Hunters are level 9-10 and toting level 9-11 rifles. Barely worth the XP from destroying them.

    Simple solution is don't watch your cinema videos when you're full on fuel. I would consider this user error, not a problem with the game.

    Yes and no. Yes if I'm online playing a lot. No if you aren't. I missed out on the videos the last two days as I haven't had much opportunity to play a lot. Because my tank was always full or mostly full, I tried to save my videos until my fuel level was lower. When it finally was lower near the end of the day, there were no videos to watch.

    What are the rules in saving your videos so I won't miss them in the future? Otherwise, I'm just going to watch them when they're available, so I won't lose my chance to benefit from them.

    You can save videos indefinitely, but they only stack up to 4 for the cinema, and 3 for after missions.
    I believe they reset somewhere on the lines of every 6-8 hours on a *schedule* not based on when you watched videos. This is difficult to test for the same reasons you cite for being unable to deplete your fuel(you've basically gotta be right at the map when they become available). If this is true, and again I'm pretty sure, any unused videos would be lost upon reset.

    If they weren't available, there was probably an issue with the ad server itself, so they were temporarily disabled. That seems to be happening frequently recently.

    I've downloaded two games but also thought about downloading others. If not for these ads, I wouldn't have known that these games existed.

    Thanks @zoson . I tried to save a video for later after reading this, but for whatever reason, it never gave me another chance to see it. Anyways it's good to know this.
