The new Game World #1 will open on Sunday June 9th

» Pre-join now!

The GW#1 is one of the four main and long airline sim scenarios at AirwaySim. This round of Game World #1 will start in 1955 and will run to the end of year 2035. The time span is the same as in Game World #2 since we're simplifying the game world structure a bit.

The opening time of this game world will be at approx. 17.00 UTC on June 9th (Sunday in two weeks). The first 24 hours of the game is static and the game clock will start to run at the standard pace on the next day.

You can already pre-join this upcoming game world. Go to the Game Area and you will find this new game waiting for you there. With the pre-joining function you can reserve a spot in this new game and we will e-mail you to remind of the game world's opening.

This game world follows the standard settings for long AirwaySim games:

• Standard difficulty level
  
  
• All airports, all aircraft models (including the "prototypes") and all features are included.
  
  
• Additional base airports follow the standard rules, max 10 bases per airline, and the amount of planes based outside HQ will grow over time.
  
  
• Alliances are available to be formed from the first day.
  
  
• Game's speed is 30 minutes per day.
  
  
• Fuel prices are random and may or may not follow the historical oil/jet fuel developments (or a combination of both where it follows the real history at some periods and is random at others), and will differ from the Game World #2.

Are there any planned additions (aircraft/features) that will be made prior to the GW starting please Sami?

[Sami]

Yes, hence the two week start delay. Finalizing the infrastructure expansion (to affect slots), as many early era aircraft updates as I can manage, and some other things that are best done before a game starts rather than mid-game (for background systems and elsewhere). More of them a bit later in detail

The infrastructure upgrades affecting slots is a great addition! 

Excited to see what else you have lined up for us

Are the changes to infrastructure upgrades affecting slots ready for the new game world launch tomorrow out of interest?

Likewise the performance tool to allow us to plan routes more easily?

Any other aircraft updates likely to sneak in too?
