Title: Game world #3 now open
Post by: Sami on January 28, 2009, 12:59:20 PM
The third game world at AirwaySim has been just opened. This is the same scenario as the two other game worlds that started a bit over a week ago. The world starts at 1992 and runs for 80 real days and 13 game years. All airports and aircraft models are included and there is space for 350 players.

Remember that the first turn is delayed - which means that the game clock starts to tick tomorrow. This is to allow for all players to join and make their first moves without giving too much advantage to the fastest players joining in.

Cost to join the game is the standard 10 Credits. You can purchase the credits thru our quick and simple credits store (link below).


How to get started

    * To join a full AirwaySim game world you must purchase Credits from our store. They are very affordable. You will need 10 Credits to join the game, there are no other payments during your play time in that game world.

    * A full game lasts for 2-3 months and 10 Credits cost about 4 EUR / 5.5 USD. So the cost to play AirwaySim is less than 0.1 eur / usd per day if you join the game world when it starts.

    * To be able to purchase the Credits and play AirwaySim you must be registered to our website.

    * Make sure you read the Manual before starting to play!

All the available games can be found under the 'Game Area' tab on the main menu. Before making a purchase for Credits please be sure that there is a game available that you would like to join and it is not full. As this is a multiplayer game you will be competing against other players so you cannot make your own 'game worlds'.

If you have any questions or problems related to the game play you can contact the other members in our forums. For all user account and payment issues please always contact our staff directly by using the contact form.

It is going to be daytime in Europe, and something else in Japan, and in Australia it's summer now.

Okay then...  Midnight EST (New York) is fine by me.

It will be 6 am in Europe (except Britain)
It will be Noon in China
It will be 2pm in Australia.

Everyone wins.

Should be no problem at all. Everyone has full 24 hours to set everything ready. You get the first plane immediately, you can set routes, schedules, marketing campaigns etc before the clock starts clickign. Second plane won't be delivered until 2 game weeks - 6 hours after game start.
And when the game finally starts, you don't necessary need to do anything until you start to see some results - after couple of hours irl.

Is there anyway to know what planes are left in the Used Market in world 3?  I would love to start fresh in a new world, but I don't want to get stuck again with only having the choice of 12 - 18 year old left overs that no one wants.  With 150+ players already signed on, I'm afraid that's already happened.

Sami, would you be able to give any kind of indication as to what kind of aircraft are still available?

Thank you,

JJP

Oh, so there's a new list of totally different aircraft every 3 hours as if no players had joined yet?

Thanks for your reply!
