That's because the game felt unfinished and has multiple issues. Ads on some
official servers are not what's causing the player drop.
Things like joining the server and having it "freeze" on a loading screen
because the server is running the wrong map group or whatever other issue. That
does not give a good impression. Then there's also the max player count issues
and map downloading not providing good feedback to the players.
Perhaps we could say official servers being the focus is providing a more stale
game... but we don't have access to valve's stats so we don't know what kind of
percentage of players do not use the server browser. Really though this game
was made around small non customizable matches. This is the entire game on
consoles. Yes, PC has servers with a bigger player cap and more mod options but
it does not seem to be made for that as a whole. Just look at all the
complaints on this mailing list.

Is it? The player counts aren't looking too good.

Don't forget that Valve already tried adding ads to their games. But that
did not work out:

This time however it did work out, from the looks of it.

If the official Valve sanctioned experience is one in which you're forced
to watch a Pinion ad every time you want to play a game why exactly does this
game have a price tag attached to it?
Splitting up the matchmaking into official and community pools is already
salt in the eye to those of us trying to run communities. But letting an
advertising agency run official servers held above all of our community servers
is shady as fuck for a game that you're charging money for.
