View Full Version : Battlefield advert starts with sound. Really, really annoying.

The
"Click for sound" button is a lie.

Firefox 13, Flash 11.

It starts blaring out really loud, obnoxius men and idiot explosions and stupid deep bass.

Clicking on the "Click for sound" button does not stop it. There is no way to stop the sound once it starts. It (cos' of some bug I guess) starts when it should not.

Make it stop please.

Argh! Medal of Hono(u)r ad too.

This time the "pause" button does not stop the sound like it does with the BF3 ad.

Ah the beauty of adblock.Yeah, I used to ad block. Stopped because (even though I sub) I wanted to suport RPS, but will start again now.

Ads getting far too busy and obnoxious as it was, this loud nonsense blaring at me just takes the last biscuit.

If you don't want to use adblock, you can still use flashblock without blocking most of the revenue-generating ads.

Sounds a decent compromise.
