Thats all I have right now. I just wanted to say that its a great game. I hate it on the reviews on app store people trash Ipod/phone apps cause the graphics arent good or the game needs more levels. Although handheld anything these days have way more computing power than the first lunar lander, they still arent gaming consoles. I think companies like firemint do a great job at making, basically "timewasters", and a select few like flight control actually make me intentionally waste time. I play it whenever I get a chance. That, to me, signals a good app/game. I know you guys dont like hearing about Pocket God but I have to get my 2 cents in... Pocket God's advertising makes it sound like a game and then delivers only a mildly fun, and definately not worth it, experience. I was very disappointed.
ahhh gotcha that makes sense. By the way, im sure there are many other people who havent been to the thread that have destroyed my 572 by now. Thanks for the tips.
i know this aint a pocket god topic but the game costs $1. i dont see how anything could not be worth that much.
got yesterday... so far my best is only 52, but I need to spend more time on it. I need to work on my routing strategies
yeah i cannot get out of the 50's... i think that's a good thing though, i want to play for a couple minutes; i hate to think how long you have to play to get to 500+! If anything, it needs to be harder
So what's the big trick to getting into the multi-hundred scores? I can get 100 or so on a good day but haven't found a better strategy as of yet. All I want to do is beat my friggin' boss who has my best score by 3 lousy planes!
shouldn't you both be working That's awesome you have a boss that has an iPhone! Do you get to play at work?
My buddy is an airline pilot and I got him addicted to this game, lol. He played it non stop on a layover. My high score is 114.
Nobody can reach a 500+ highscore,he obviously SSHed into the app folder and modified the score. Like many others do with game that have online scoreboard like trism or touchgrind etc.
That's utterly incredible... don't know how you did that, but that's a huge achievement! Well done. I'm sure you must have a very systematic pattern to flight paths in order to manage them... I'd like to hear about it!
I can assure you that I hacked nothing. My score is real. Why would I lie or cheat just for a forum? I have absolutely nothing to gain by posting a high score on here. Just wanted to show people that higher scores are indeed possible. And FYI as to your leaderboard comment... This game has no leaderboard online or otherwise... Yet. If you couldn't already tell, I didn't even know how to take a screenshot with my iPod (used my cell phone camera) do you really think I know how to hack the app files? My score is real and yes people can get 500 plus.... Obviously.
Yes it's actually not hard to figure out effective routes. Also the helicopters and prop planes always come out of the same spots so once you get used to that you can just work around those areas. And the planes only need about the first few centimeters of the strip to land. So use the rest to fly over pretty much worry free. It just gives you more room in the middle to work with. Oh wait, I guess I should have just told you to hack the score files, since apparently it's so OBVIOUS that's what I did. LOL J/K
It seems crazy at first but once you get over 100 yourself and learn the strategies you can see how Greatgambino would get over 500. He definitely wasn't cheating and honestly I'm just waiting for the first 1000 point game now...should be just a matter of time really.
@ Greatgambino - Wow! What a fantastic score. Congratulations! Me and my paltry score of 52 bow down before you (well, actually all my planes crash and burn before you...) .
