Last War - ads vs gameplay | Badvertising

[@pjfagre1668]

The irony of getting an actual ad for Last War before the video started is not lost on me.

[@caprex7490]

I wouldn't be surprised if there were Last War ads shown while playing Last War. Advertising fake gameplay, of course.

[@JoelKellenProductions]

The fact that not only are these ads fake as hell, but they also got Antony Starr to promote them is crazy

[@WalrusLimePie]

I saw those had started popping up, the Last War pull is just too strong

[@fekearn]

Ya I downloaded because of him. The game is actually really fun once you get into the clan wars side of it. It’s a pretty pay to win game if you wanna be a top player tho. But if you just wanna chill in a clan u don’t have to pay for anything

[@reabsorb]

@@fekearnso how often do you get to play the shooting math minigame ? like do you ever even see it? because i wanna play it so bad i might just download last war even if it means i only get to play it every once in awhile lmao

​@reabsorb nah, I downloaded last war like a month ago just for that simple math shooting game, instead it's just completely different and it's garbage

[@reabsorb]

These kind of ads should really be removed and the creators sued for fraud

[@Carlosyabrudy]

They should be. Depends on the country being sued in

[@edgarhernandez4529]

They profit on this. The ads is what pays them. They don't care if you download it, as long as the ads are being shown on any KZbin content your looking at. It pays the creators to promote the ads

[@NeoMatrixYT]

Fun Fact: Can’t sue someone in a country that considers US laws invalid.

[@PineappleDealer37]

Apparently the problem is, since the game is free they can't be sued for lying trying to sell you something, which immidentally complicates things and makes it not as easy of a case as it otherwise would be.

[@Smokey420Greenleaf]

they're Chinese and German companies. they aren't subject to US law. Google and Faceebook however are US based companies who know these chinese and german companies are fraudulent, and still allow them to advertise on their platforms. IMO google and facebook are worse than these chinese companies because they know about the false advertising involved, the ads get reported literally thousands of times per day, yet they knowingly allow these foreign companies to scam american citizens in exchange for advertising revenue. IMO false advertising is illegal in the US, any US based platform that allows this advertising is breaking the law and should be taken to court and boycotted by it's customers.

[@P.W.R.]

I can't stand these Last War/Top War "games." These ads are beyond irritating and they play on almost any video I watch regardless of its relevance to the content. They're pushing the ads hard because they want to get as much people to drop a couple bucks on the game. They don't need to retain players, they just need them to stay long enough to lose a buck or two and they got what they want.

[@SourDonut99]

The game is bad. Basically you have a bunch of soldiers and you side them left and right. There's basically two directions. One direction is "win the game" and the other direction is "lose the game". That's the gameplay. It's old after 1 playthrough.

[@mechwarrior13]

The privacy policy is wild. I rejected it outright because if you accept, you grant access to your camera, microphone and album. PLUS the policy also grants access to your billing info. Card # and all. Btw if you reject the policy it shuts the app down automatically so you can’t play.

[@JBinFL]

So it's a win-win

[@arvinmaryami3824]

where did you find this?

[@myrealnamedoesntfit]

Just normal permissions, honestly. But I will say, I've been playing this for a couple months and just checked to see what permissions have changed and I have "no permissions allowed". Camera and Files & Media specifically are "Not allowed". Billing info isn't a permission that I ever remember allowing, but would imagine it being a thing if you make a purchase. So either they've made some changes (for the better) since launch or there is some discrepency between devices or versions of Android. People do fork over big bucks for these types of games. But it is refreshing that this has no ads other than a quick popup on launch for the daily sale. Ads are a deal breaker, even on a free game. You end up spending half your time (if not more) watching ads, or you end up forking over $10-$20 a month to remove them. Then once you get invested and that monthly ad-removal fee feels negligible, you spend $1 here, then $5, then it just snowballs. So, at this moment, Last War does seem fairly good. It gets a little more in-depth as you level your base and the amount of free items you get is wholly dependant upon the amount of participation you put into it. Build and research times get steep later on, but if you are in an active alliance, there are alliance modifiers that speed this up and you get free speedups from participating in events. All in all, this game is a much better mobile experience than Duolingo and running out of hearts.

[@ConsciousExpression]

Could be an AI deepfake. Elon Musk gets deepfaked a lot.

[@nervous_neuron]

This game is a huge bait and switch. The early game focuses on the zombie runner part as you clear your base, but then once they're finished, it's a base builder. The zombie runner does last a while to. The main game is to build you base, level your heroes and fight other bases with your alliance. The later zombie shooting levels are almost 100% automated. There are special ops levels, but you only unlock a few per HQ level. Just like many other mobile games with fake ads, they put the game from the ads in there, but it's not the core gameplay. With some other fake ad games, it's obvious as soon as you download it that the advertised game, if included, will be a few bonus stages. But this one leads you on to think it's the core gameplay while slowly introducing the base building and PvP so they have more time to hook you.

[@NL-fg6it]

Thanks, you saved me time! 👊🏾

[@nachgemacht_975]

Exactly, but i must say, i got hooked badly. I dowloaded it while i was on vacation waiting for my taxi. This was 5 weeks ago... But yeah its only about pvp, sadly they removed many cool things to further you come. Its only about pvp...

Not to mention the time to level up a ln HQ or anything else is DAYS WEEKS long as you get farther into the game

[@Yajeeb]

[@derva1019]

If they know the games in the ads are desireable, then just make those games

[@philipsalama8083]

They don't, because those kinds of games don't really support micro transactions. There's a reason why almost all of these games are Clash of Clans clones - they're insanely monetisable.

[@yinbakalu]

​@@philipsalama8083I am looking forward to a sole frustrated dev or small passionate dev team just take the concept and deliver a real game around it.

[@三色史萊姆]

I just don't get it. If they think that kind of stuff could be attractive and addictive to make the ad viewers downloading the game, why don't just make one game that really plays in that way? I

Because that actual game would be quickly churned through and difficult to get infinite monetization out of.

​@@marzgamingmaster Can you explain that for simpletons? Im genuinely curious cause I can't find one good game of this style

[@connor4911]

​@@marcusgonzalez8550because if it was just the game that they advertised then they couldn't make money from the player. By keeping the base building mechanics they can still make money.

[@nanonano4262]

​@@marcusgonzalez8550 they meant that if they made an actual game resembling the ads then it would not be profitable as mobile games have a goal of being inconvenient enough by very slow and annoyingly making bits of progress that a simple use of your bank card can solve for a bit, at least before you need to do it again

[@supahdupah207]

I've been playing it this last week and have been having a pretty good time with it. It's like most builder games, you have to wait for things to upgrade or build so that shouldn't surprise anyone. They give tons of rewards daily that reduce times, your allies can help reduce time as well. Haven't felt like I have to buy something and I'm at level 12 headquarters now. I guess if you only went off the ads you'd expect something different, but most games are advertised like that. The best most interesting features are shown, and the less desired are to be found in game lol.

[@MajorZeroCELL]

For those who would like to know, what you've seen in this video is literally only the beginning of the game. The rest is just a cashgrab Pay 2 win game where you'll have trouble progressing if you don't pay real money. This game has 4 to 6 battle passes at the same time, renewed each week (25 bucks each). There's no other way to get legendary heroes and level them up (unless you're planning to play this game for the next 20 years, but some Korean pay2win player will make sure you won't ask yourself this question). So yeah, this game is a big no no, the ads show gameplay that is basically the prologue only. Otherwise it's just base building with days necessary to upgrade anything.

[@nachgemacht_975]

Im currently playing it for 6 weeks now. I paid 5 bucks, 2 bucks for a top 3 legendary hero and 3 bucks for a second builder. I must say, there are whales out there but lets be fcking honest its a damn mobile game where you just touch stuff and loot stuff. I dont go home and play this Game all day, i play it while waiting or having lunch at work. Its really fun especially if you join alliances. I dont even need to buy the ingame diamonds because you get tons and tons of them, i collect around 10k per week. Ofc if you want to go down the whale road its possible. But for playing it while small occasions its fun. For me atleast

I imagine it's the same people working under a new cheap company. It's super inexpensive to make a new company in China, and it costs more to sue them than what they're worth. They'll just disband the company and make another for around 2k, while they make so much more off lying and microtransactions. The reason for why they're basically the same is because they use the same advertisers as well. Also they just remade the game because the old one's reviews were too low. China has no moral and legal advertising laws to punish these people, so they won't stop.

[@LiveByTheSword90]

(Edit- maybe I'm talking about Top War. I'm not sure anymore lol).. My problem is, they blatantly lie in the ads. There are like 5 ads of the same exact video but with different voices all pretending they're playing. But like I said, every bit of the video is identical. Also, the graphics looked a little better in the ad, but that's to be expected. At least the game is similar to the ad though, that's a plus.

"Playing games people say are fake.... Part 1"

[@curlywhites]

As someone who started playing for the past week and has joined an alliance and gotten a lvl 10 headquarters I'll answer your question a little more specifically. 1. There's a base-expanding mini-game which uses heroes: heroes you unlock and level up like every other mobile game. This mini-game is fairly simple and less about math and more about obstacles-avoidance. However, there are still things to destroy or "collect". 2. Frontline Breakthrough. This mini-game is similar to the ads in that you start off with one unit and have to figure out which path and which rewards to choose from. These rewards can be more troops (and you shoot the target to increase troop count). A stronger unit like a flamer or jeep. Upgraded weapons (represented by an AK) which deal more damage. It's less about math and more about figuring out which path is best. It's more of a puzzle actually. 3. Special Ops. If you noticed, this game actually starts out having you do Special Ops (check out the result screen and it'll say Special Ops 1 or Special Ops 6 for examples. THIS is the math game most people are looking for. So you have 3 different mini-games that have a similar feel, but have different ways to complete them. The first 1 is kind of the "main" one as it's going to expand your base giving you more room for more buildings. However, this IS still a free mobile game so there are plenty of ways this game is looking for money from you. As he said, resources and timewalls exist. And he's right, level 10 and most buildings seem to take 4 hours to upgrade. Not a problem for me so far because there are far more things to do. Join an alliance. Complete events. Complete daily tasks. And who needs to be on their phone all the time? This gives you a reason to finally put down your phone when you hit a timewall. If you're active, you can continuously earn enough gems to get the 30-day VIP. I bought it (with gems not money) about 5-6 days ago and already have enough gems to buy it again in when it's time. Being part of an alliance is a half the game. If you don't want to be part of an alliance there are just some things you won't be part of and miss out of those rewards.

[@nzgamer7593]

I actually tried this out of pure curiosity knowing that the ads were fake. And the gameplay does change the further into the story/gameplay. It is a base building game. Still not a bad game.

[@dracodracarys2339]

And now there's the Fishdom ads which are not really about eating bigger and bigger fish.

[@kitmountaincat6102]

Being so done with false advising i assumed they were lying, it is real to get real advertising like ark knight and raid shadow legends rather refreshing.

[@BigMilkyGoth]

Any mobile game ad I️ see these days I️ automatically assume it’s just another clash of clans clone

[@danielpalacios155]

I got an ad for that game.

[@SK-kq6zr]

2:16 Even the guy presenting is the same in both games. How much weight did you lose since you made the first ad here?

[@KarlKapo]

I want the names of the people in the ads and the name of the company and it's whereabouts.

[@topkekm8817]

Not sure if you are aware but the last war have used your footage in their ads now so either you are wittingly or unwittingly part of the flase advertising now

[@WalrusLimePie]

Wait for real haha? Got a link to it so I can check it out?

[@RobinJames8282]

No, it's the similar style of play, I've seen a tonne of their adverts and sadly you're not featured. Otherwise you could hopefully make some money out of them.

[@sinnerd409]

I got a last war ad on your video

[@DeepStateWackadoo]

then why doesnt somone make a real version of what we see in the ads. the marketing is already done. just make it and profit.

[@gstarofwar1639]

the thing i dont understand, if they made a game which is like the ads they would make a ton of money no?

[@yos110]

I just got an ad of this game before the video started😂

[@lilyvmax6642]

"Idk why people are calling this fake when I'm playing it right now"

[@fnafabdat317]

Thanks for ur honesty boss Really appreciate it

[@AKUNJIG]

Twitter brought me here thanks to Community Notes

[@Vexerlo]

Bro... I got a last war ad

[@lerevenant5404]

These ads have been appearing to me literally everywhere when I'm not even interested in mobile games at all. The question is, how are they even allowed to make those ads and publish them? This should be illegal.

[@jaxonmcalley]

Base building make sense but with CoC design? Can we be original?

[@Drycatss]

Legit got a last war ad on this

[@TheElvenKeys]

instead of advertising strategy games as arcade games, why not make arcade games?

[@lifehackeriscool]

No money making

[@Mankey1234]

The irony of getting Last War ads on this

[@dorugu]

i always assumke tht it's fake when i see those ads :) it's either fake or taken frm a so called bonus lvl from somewhere in the game :)

[@James-sh4zf]

Lol, the ad before this vid was for last war 😅

[@14Zee88]

I never understood why they can’t just make the game and show it in the ad. Why make a whole extra animation to trick people? Because either way they’re very simple games.

[@ayonaughty7098]

I fucking hate those ads "you guys want me to play a fake game" makes a shotgun barrel against my head sound euphoric

[@SSJ_Oni]

I found this video while looking for the last aot opening

[@lxunw0rthyxl58]

I actually play this everyday. It’s awesome and there are some scenes in the game that are like the ads . I don’t regret playing at all . I joined a great alliance and the ads aren’t identical, they’re just an old beta version of the idea of the game. Special ops is what gets you the missions like on the ads
