MGXYZ any idea why they are live in Europe etc but don’t seem to be in the uk ?
Hi Fursake yes I did click not to have personalised ads under the assumption it would put in random ones.
I have now changed it to see if that makes a difference.
What platform are you playing it on ?
I’m using a laptop running game through steam.
Find it bit more reassuring if you say you have seen plenty of ads.
Only thing with that forum Jim is that was for FM19 unless I’m mistaken ? So hopefully they have things in place to stop it for FM20 ?
Yeah jim very odd not sure what to make of it......
Just started a new game with arsenal quickly to see if different with big clubs and their digital advertising boards but just the same standard adverts.
Unless the ads haven’t gone live yet or something ?
Can’t be generating any revenue with standard FM ads, this has me puzzled and concerned.
Anyone shed any light on this ?
Yes they are the ones Jim just the standard FM ad boards that have been there years.
War child/games aid/kick it out/football manager/Vanarama/prostate cancer.
I have been playing in the conference but surely they would still use the ad boards rather than the prem style electronic ones.
Just seems really strange that I’m not seeing proper ads etc.
Have bought Football manager 2020 and have been playing for last 2 weeks. Haven’t seen any Bidstack ads in the game which I find really odd. I know someone was saying this the other day where him and his brother had also not seen any.
Yet clearly there are ads on games you can see via YouTube.
Anyone know why this is the case and why I’m not seeing any Bidstack ads on my game ?
Excuse my lack of knowledge here, but if in the future bids does get “gobbled up” how would it work ?
Would they put an offer in per share at a set price.
Would this be a good thing or a bad thing ?
Here’s the link for a screenshot of the Adidas ads....

How awkward....
Super Jim is right those ads have been in fm for years as they are partners for the games.
Nothing to do with Bidstack at all....
Have seen somewhere though Adidas being on the billboards. Which would be through our beloved Bidstack.
Hopefully now that the game has officially launched we will see proper ads like this more regularly.
Would be good if anyone has the game on here to clarify once they start to see the ads coming through what they are seeing etc.
Wonder if we will get any new soon about new deals or games being involved in.
Be nice to get back into the 20s but need something to stop this rot before hopefully the big news that we’ve met or exceeded revenue targets.
Wouldn’t be surprised to see a falling share price today, apparently on the other site ADVFN there was a conference called Mello or something.
At this conference bids was discussed by a panel who basically panned it saying nothing concrete to back the current valuation, the revenue figure that JD has stuck by was scoffed at given the years interim figures.
They apparently all suggested bids was a sell and we’re pretty scathing.
Although I really hope they are wrong I can’t see our share price starting to move until evidence of revenue starts coming in.
To be honest the ads you see in these racing / rally videos are adverts like Michelin, Castrol etc.
I’m 99% sure these are standard adverts in the game.
The ones that will be Bidstack ads will be the companies that have no links to racing / cars.
When I start to see ads for McDonald’s / Nike / Adidas / Argos etc etc in games then I will start to get excited.
Grand theft auto would be perfect for in game advertising. Massive game.
Would never happen if you advertised places like that then there would be uproar from the gamers. It has to keep realism, that’s why I think some games will be off limits for Bidstack.
They wouldn’t risk upsetting there consumers.
Sorry mate just my opinion, not saying it can’t be done just think football games are perfect for it.
Games like cod won’t be as easy to get them in at least not to the scale that they can on FM etc.
Agreed yogibear, I think some games like Football manager, Fifa, Grid & PES are made for Bidstack type advertising.
However games like COD I can’t see how you would fit ads into the game without disrupting it.
Could be wrong but I just think some games won’t be a fit for Bidstack.
Sorry if this has been covered before.
It seems the Q4 results could really make or break us. Hitting our revenue targets or at least getting close would show us exactly where this company could go. A big miss would really knock investor confidence and likely lead to a big drop in share price.
I was just wondering if anyone has a rough idea of when we’d likely get an announcement on Q4 revenues....is this likely to be months away etc...
Thanks
MGXYZ cheers for that.
I also view both this board and ADVFN.
It would appear Bidstack is taking over my life.
God I hope this takes off as I’m well invested now just like many others !!!!
Just need good revenue to drop and we can start to enjoy this share.
Spot on thanks for that.
Although watching that game I only saw the yellow McDonald’s M and football manager 20 launched in November being shown on the ad boards.
I’m assuming after the launch it will be like a real game with several ads scrolling through the boards...
Not that I’m debating Bidstack are in on this.
They have not liked the tweet.
