It's really a players decision, How does North America and Asia sound? 10 million to start, no loans. Game starts in 1965 runs untill 1980's? Your imput is important, let me know. ;)

well for thirty players I guess one state would be enough. Japan? India? That alone would make it quite challenging.

Mmm I am not sure that time frame/era would interest me... I'd be more interested in 2000-2015, just North America and a maximum of one airline per airport (which would not be a problem with only 30-40 players).

I think one large country would be really interesting. The United States, maybe Canada.

Yeah, another US game.  It could be the raging success that the North American Challenge game was  ::)

I agree with this and I am in for this senario

just 10 years?

I'm interested if you make it all of North America, but the TF should be 1990-2025.

I'd quite fancy this whatever the scenario, but v1.2 will surely be launched when this world is mid-stream, if it's intended to be up and running soon - when any new world is launched then the majority of players lose interest in current worlds. 

Will this world you envisage be v1.11 or due at a later date when v1.2 is up and running?
Title: Re: Another SkyLinks private 30 anyone?
Post by: cashacasha on March 12, 2010, 01:30:07 AM
Ok Hows this, we need minimum 30 players and say 40 max. 2000-2020, 10 million to start, no loans, north america only.... ;)

Sounds interesting. I'm new to AWS (this would be my 3rd game), so tell me, are there any conditions to play in this world? What about the credits, is it more expensive?
Title: Re: Another SkyLinks private 30 anyone?

I'd be interested.

Post by: swiftus27 on March 12, 2010, 03:06:16 PM
I still think that this game should be just the largest 70-80 airports.    That way we get to use the big jets and not just regional planes.  So sick of the A320/737
Title: Re: Another SkyLinks private 30 anyone?
Post by: cashacasha on March 12, 2010, 03:14:20 PM
Even better idea Swiftus, That sounds good, Only the largest major airports in the world. year 2000-2020, 10 million to start no loans. Only boeing and Airbus aircraft. BOOOYAA!!! 8)

That's a bit too restrictive in my opinion. There's no room for varying strategy.

No, you've got to have IL aircraft if they are still available.  Some people may want to experiment with them. 

But, I'd pull the game back a period.  Throw it out there when the Tri Star, DC10, 741-2, A300 start to hit the street.  Many planes to choose from.

Yes actually... a modern age North American Challenge would be good. The previous North American challenge game was a little too hard due to the era so many weren't interested.  

A North American game with say a max of 100-150 players, similar to the Euro Challenge would interest me a lot as I have not played the US much.

It would be much more of an interest to me than a worldwide game with only 80 or so destination spread around the world for everyone to fight over. Slots would run out way too fast too.

Just my opinion and preference of course, I'm happy to hear other suggestions.

sorry count me out of a 100 player NA game. 
Title: Re: Another SkyLinks private 30 anyone?
Post by: ICEcoldair881 on March 12, 2010, 10:05:41 PM
maybe we cut it BACK down to 30-50 players?

It's been many weeks, I would even say months, since I was last on AirwaySim. That is, before I started my airline a couple days ago. I'm so glad to be back. It's something that gets my mind off homework and assignments and parents - and I can still get my brain thinking. The best site EVER!!
I am so interested to do something of the previous suggested game world. The: 30 to 40 players, North America (or was it USA?), only Airbus and Boeing =D, no loans, 10 million starting money, one airline per airport. Making it somewhat easy, but difficult at the same time. = my type of game.

I agree with the above except NOT USA only.  We did that game and it wasnt fun.  

Why not just have the biggest of the big planes?  

So, my final vote:

1.  Era 1973-1985 (Tri Stars, DC10s, A300s, 747s, IL86s ) 
2.  30-50 players
3.  70-90 total airports around the world
4.  Largest planes only.  Nothing under 100pax available.

4.  Largest planes only.  Nothing under 100pax available.  

to add to/edit that:

1. 1980-2010 (so we get those L1011s, DC10s, classic 747s, A300s, Il86s etc. but we also get into the NG aircraft like 787, A340-600 etc.)
2. same, 30-50 players
3. same, 60-100 airports around the world, ONE PLAYER PER BASE AIRPORT
4. Largest planes only. Nothing under 100pax available (100pax in STANDARD config, we should be able to fly A318s or B736s in a 68pax config if needed....)
5. Multi-hub feature should be available! again, no two people at one hub. makes it easier to control. (not that it should be a problem anyway as each person could have around 2 hubs, and both being large so it should work)

*multi-hubs should be in your base country ONLY, if you're based in Hong Kong, Singapore, the Netherlands etc, tough luck for you as you do have enough demand as it is.....
