If I try for a while I think I'll get into the top ten, depending on how lucky I get with cyclones in the market and the amount of time I have. I'm at around 700 but that's not enough jobs for me
There is a Bux glitch...just load people and cargo that are green, when you arrive at the city they are assigned...you get Bux!!!
Bluebear88: There's a music festival going on at Kalgoorlie Aside: The nearest red city to Australia is Jakarta? It must be very tough to begin there. I started in Asia ... easiest
Very tough, but then again it makes the rest of the game seem easier by comparison. I started with Sydney and Melbourne, hopped my way up the eastern shore, and let me tell you, it was exciting when I could reach Alice Springs for the first time! I've closed most of my operations now, although I'm still running a few planes around between Dhaka, Bangalore, and Singapore (which has a money transport event) and am sending some long-distance planes between London and Seoul to pick up some funds. At #14 now with 1870 jobs but I expect to drop several places as others charge forward. Got my fingers crossed for the next global event being a class 1 city in southern Africa or the far reaches of Alaska/Canada... (this means we'll get a red city in Europe, just watch)
So I have been fiddling around with color schemes for my airline. I settled on Charcoal, Steel and Burnt Orange. The Tetra C looks good in them and I adore the patterns on the Fogbuster P if you use Charcoal, Burnt Orange and then Steel. What do you guys think is the coolest color and which plane has the coolest pattern. I am with the Fog P.
An hour left on Bangalore, looks like SlightlyNorth made his goal of 10k+ jobs. 1. 11,264 2. 10,763 (SlightlyNorth) 3. 3795 4. 3220 (PondusFM) 5. 3209 6. 2891 (me) 7. 2733 8. 2532 9. 2444 10. 2200
My airline's colours are Steel/White, Safety Orange, and Amber. I tried to duplicate Braniff Air liveries.
Yep, I did! A little bittersweet considering whoever made it past me has either twice the amount of planes that I do, or is cheating. They jumped from around 5k to over 11k in the span of about 3 hours. With 26 planes clustered and running round trips from all the nearby L3 cities, I could do about 520 jobs per hour. To do 2k jobs per hour seems impossible without some kind of... unfair advantage.
Yes I noticed that this person snuck up there within the past few hours. I saw you holding steady at #1 during most of this event. I know I have experienced GC lag, but it's never been such a great leap.
Can I ask a favour of you guys: Don't do any jobs for the first 2 minutes, I will load a plane and bux boost it, so I can get a screenshot of me at #1. It would mean the world to me.
The upgrade should have a history of global finishes as a new feature, otherwise all you've done is wiped clear every 3 1/2 days. This is the reason I run out to a lead and then lose interest. We need a whole plane/balloon event with mystery parts SOOOOOOOOOO bad. Heck, I'd even take doing the full blimp event again.
I think it will depend on where it is located cuz I'm going Bux broke re-arranging my fleet each time a new one begins, spending more Bux than the Bux prize for the event.
