I progressed from year 1920 or so (the start) to 1970 in one run. Maby in a bit more than a hour. No timers. Noomen Well-Known Member Sep 14, 2014 68 0 6 #4 Noomen, Jan 26, 2017 Thanks. Going to try it. Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #5 Muppetpuppet, Jan 26, 2017 No timers , adds are optional. Hi here, there are no timers, nor are adds required. beyond a few premium aircraft all other content can be unlocked by simply playing the game. There's a deep management engine underneath the game that gets more difficult as complexity increases. If you prefer a challenge without missions and progression, there's an advanced mode that can be activated from the settings. This gives you a clean start where the only objective is making enough money to progress each year. Basically a bit more of a simulation style game mode that doesn't try to hold your hand. here's the official trailer: https://youtu.be/C3O5ava2LDA Attached Files: Screenshot_20161207-170510.jpg File size: 161.2 KB Views: 42 Screenshot_20161207-170541.jpg File size: 168.5 KB Views: 47 Screenshot_20161207-170552.jpg File size: 221.3 KB Views: 36 Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #6 Muppetpuppet, Jan 26, 2017 Actually the "quests" are only a tutorial to progress you through the timeline to unlock more complex features. It seems like a simple game at first, but after a while managing your network becomes an actual strategic venture. I suggest you play beyond 1945 after which you get all the globe spanning airplanes and things become a lot more interesting/difficult. There's actually a tremenedous amount of free content here. RinoaHeartily Well-Known Member Dec 12, 2010 1,715 10 38 #7 RinoaHeartily, Jan 27, 2017 If its not the case please re-rate it.. Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #8 Muppetpuppet, Jan 28, 2017 ingame screens Here's a screen of a small/medium network with its planes flying around realtime, there are over 70 possible airports/destinations to connect to. Each with different airports and setups There's more than 25 airplanes in the game, besides a few fun IAP ones all are unlockable through play without videos or iaps, and all are based on historical airplanes and specs You get to design each airport and upgrade it per building once you have a big enough network things can get challenges, with lots of cascading problems, luckily there's loads of micromanagement you can also do. pka4916 Well-Known Member Jun 6, 2009 2,584 0 36 Male Wisconsin #9 pka4916, Jan 28, 2017 How do I get more connections ? it's always 1/2 and have 4 planes going from Amsterdam to London. people are angry lol.. Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #10 Muppetpuppet, Jan 28, 2017 You need to build more terminals/gates each terminal comes with 2 gate slots (in the old one you build gate as an upgrade, don't know by hart if the new one also requires u 2 build new gate upgrades as well) go to a city, and press the zoom in icon in the middle you'll see the airport lay out, go to the building shop and purchase a terminal and some gates (if gates are required) you can then place them where u want, and new connections are unlocked. If you'r still in the london/amsterdam part of the missions, you'll get a tutorial on terminals in a bit probably (or you tapped passed it) but if you only have london and amsterdam, other connections aren't neccesary.. you first need to buy landing rights to another airport first (just tap on a nearby city on the globe and the buy/cost window will popup) RinoaHeartily Well-Known Member Dec 12, 2010 1,715 10 38 #11 RinoaHeartily, Jan 29, 2017 Build more terminals... They come with gates unlike previous version u need to buy gates Stronsay Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2015 987 230 43 #12 Stronsay, Jan 29, 2017 Followed the Story Mode and got a lot of angry customers and half the routes losing money. Going to try Investor Mode today as I reckon I can do better. There is clearly a deep management game here. Just needs the right person in charge! Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #13 Muppetpuppet, Jan 29, 2017 problem management Delays are your main money sink, If you see planes in delay (circling an airport) you'r losing money like crazy. Build additional runways and other buildings that provide capacity. bigger airplanes require heavier runways. Snow and storms will also cause delays.. as will lack of maintenance. Make sure you listen and read all the things the passengers feedback to you,, the spoken voice comms also provide hints to what;s the problem.. Good luck! Stronsay Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2015 987 230 43 #14 Stronsay, Jan 29, 2017 Thanks! That's useful information. pka4916 Well-Known Member Jun 6, 2009 2,584 0 36 Male Wisconsin #15 pka4916, Jan 29, 2017 I'm liking this game.. it's indeed in depth management.. Found a screen where I could set prices for tickets / food etc... but forgot where i saw it lol. So there is a lot more going on, than what meets the eye. Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #16 Muppetpuppet, Jan 29, 2017 Connection screen Tapping on a connection , either a line on the globe or thru the citie menu. Opens the connection screen, there you can set ticket prices and other behavior for that line. Tapping on an airplane also shows the airplane info screen. There you can ground the airplane , or set its gate behavior. Either linger at the gate and pick up more passengers or depart quicker Lots of hidden micromanagement options RinoaHeartily Well-Known Member Dec 12, 2010 1,715 10 38 #17 RinoaHeartily, Jan 30, 2017 After playing thru for like 6 hours I think I like the old version better... This indeed has more ads although optional but it really helps in moving forward. The problem is the old version is not so suitable to be played even on iPhone pluses.. Min iPad coz of the Super small text. Muppetpuppet Well-Known Member Sep 5, 2013 241 1 18 Applied Game Developer Amsterdam http://www.facebook.com/oberonscourt #18 Muppetpuppet, Jan 30, 2017 Can you post a screenshot of how small the text is on Ipad.. perhaps its a bug or something that can be fixed RinoaHeartily Well-Known Member Dec 12, 2010 1,715 10 38 #19 RinoaHeartily, Jan 30, 2017 I meant the old aviation empire is suitable to be played on iPad only. The text too small to be played on iPhone devices Pancho0602 New Member Jan 31, 2017 1 0 0 #20 Pancho0602, Jan 31, 2017 help! Hi!

Installed it: what I see is: watch ads to get coins. Repeat. That's for 10 minutes of playing. Compete quests for coins, watch an ad for extra coins.
Ads are optional? I progressed from year 1920 or so (the start) to 1970 in one run. Maby in a bit more than a hour. No timers.
