I have no after mission ads after 2.1 update. I was on iOS 9 and am now on iOS 10. The cinema works as always.
The switch in the privacy settings didn't work for me.
The rubbish about regions with more or less ads and so on is absolutely nonsense. I play this game for almost a year now and I had after mission ads every single day - till 2.1.
I'm in US and did the following: (running iOS 10) I turned off "Limit AD Tracking" in privacy->Advertising, closed and re-launched game, and the ADs after missions worked. I turned "Limit AD Tracking" back on, then restarted the game, ran a mission and the ADs were gone. I turned "Limit AD Tracking" back off, restarted game, and the ADs were working again.
So from US perspective this seems to work and is repeatable, even though the entire time I've been playing this game on iOS 9, I've always had "Limit AD Tracking" ON, and ADs always worked.
I had only received a couple add video options since the NG update. I just tried the fix and the videos are back. I missed out on multiple gold tickets though.
Reset "Limit AD Tracking" doesn't work for me on iOS 10 with new phone... My old game on the previous phone with iOS 9.3.5 still load the cinema after mission...
Have tried "the fix" three times - no joy. Everything worked fine after iOS 10, including this game and all other apps and games on my iPad Air 2. NG's update 2.1 came after my iOS update was proven sound. Since their update the post-mission ads are gone. Do the math....
So, playing on my IPad2 9.3.5 and have had very few problems with videos in the past. I did some post mission videos early Saturday morning, but ever since I purchased a gas booster Saturday night, haven't seen it since. The cinema is fine though. Any thoughts @MadPuppy? Not a deal breaker, but fairly annoying.
Unfortunately support replied me with what I can find in this forum... Also they have standard reply saying something like depends on locations you might not have ads... blah blah blah
To be honest, I'm sure most of us have the ads working for us in the past before... I've played since October last year, always have more ads after 6 hours...
Thank you for the reply @MadPuppy . Didn't mean to single you out but it would be great if you could pass this info on to @Teeceezy and @Shteevie . Not sure how the regions work, but I live in Milwaukee, WI USA. It might be a device or region thing.
I'm hearing that we're not the only game in town to have our ad revenue hit by changes in iOS 10. I'm not in the group that handles the relationships with the ad middlemen, so I dunno how progress is coming along. I'm hoping for a fix either from our end or from apple soon.
Frankly, the US should be the one region least affected by ads, as they are the most lucrative market for them. This shows that it's a global issue [I mean that geographically and also magnitude-ally].

You can always send in a support ticket.
If anything new is known about about current issues in this area @Teeceezy or @Shteevie might be able to shed light on it.
