Feedback The future is approaching

Dear Airport Managers,

please post here any feedback on "The future is approaching"!


Best regards,
Your Skyrama Team

 

What is this??? Are we getting new missions and new levels???

 

I hope this update comes soon.А lot of people were waiting for this

 

What's going on? Can we have just a sneak peek!?

 

ghet we finaly ground extentsions update new posebileties in the game ? hope so i was alredy aklmost leaving this dieing game

 

Looking at the level 121 in the screenshot i suppose new levels (and perhaps new missions?) are arriving, which is insane . I'm so glad that BP seems to care about this game again, even if it's just with small updates

i do hope they will rescale the existing levels as well, as getting level 100 is already hard enough right now

 

New missions would be insane indeed. Also, having planes with a higher XP would be great.

 

The only way forward for this game is changing the game engine. Then and only then the game can be updated. Level 121? The numbers don't matter, could even be 500 levels but the level system must be changed completely - the rewards for levels (2 aircash "Take your bonus and go shopping" - very funny, the plane shop (plane xp, plane coins, what level it is available). The amount of planes required to achieve anything past level 80 is ludicrous and current game engine can't handle that. Not to mention that right now only the new event planes are worth buying making every previous plane outdated. New missions? Currently the missions are useless after a certain point so another thing to change. User Interface? Totally outdated. The game needs a proper launcher too, not some quickly-put-together-placeholder for a real launcher only so that the game still can be played on flash. Also if the skyrama team wants to bring more players to the game the business model also must change. This game is literally pay to progress which is based on some people getting addicted to the game and spending hundreds monthly. More stable model would be making the game playable for people who do not want to spend a lot of money to develop their airport. So the change would be - MORE players spending LESS money each rather than LESS players spending MORE money each - for example some monthly subscription containing in-game incentives (like monthly QS, 10slots, whatever, not my role to come up with ideas). With that in place, hangar slots could be bougt by aircoins - an increasing amount each slot stopping at a certain number (for example 50millions/slot), but as I wrote, not my role to think about ideas improving the game. Obviously with all those things applied to the game it could be released on mobile devices too - another HUGE playerbase ready to jump into the game and spend some money.

Now, all I just wrote doesn't matter because it would require TONS of resources and workhours and it would basically be Skyrama 2.0 which probably won't happen ever. Still, I'm curious what's "The future is approaching" is about - hopefully not the approaching April 1.

 

Fix the long-standing bugs like:
Incoming buddy flights - refresh time i.e. as soon as buddy sends the plane it appears in the list (currently tied to cash cow refresh or own planes arriving it would seem)
Buddy list - tower lights - refreshes when buddys turn on and off, currently have to F5 to get it updated
Cargo bays don't give produce in quickservice when buddy plane is in unload step of servicing (When first on the bay)

I am sure there are more bugs but these three have existed for about 10 years!

As others say, make hangar slots cheaper or purchasable with coins. or even purchase aircash with coins.

 

An updaded engine by today's standarts, would be giga improvement. People mentioned major pain points already so would just add- Consdider adding the game on Steam maybe. Suprised a decade old game is not there yet. Could bring potential new players.

 

Can you give us more information on what wil be going on with the game in the future.

It feels like someone dropped a bomb to get some reactions. We are almost 1week from the starting post but no answers or indications of where the game is going

 

What in my opinion is missing in this game, apart from what was already said is:

1. some better login reward mechanism... Seriously, logging in everyday to get 3 spins for what exactly? Few coins, few passangers, some useless decoration, outdated passenger building? What I suggest here is to add montly login calendar into the game, that will reward players when they login every single day. The last reward, for logging everyday should be either few AirCash or hangar slots. That will encourage players to login daily (which now, is kinda missing in the game)
   
2. Update the events: it's not new, that "battlepass" is almost in every single game out there. Why not add it here? Firstly it will encourage players to participate in the events (speaking for myself, I only participate in the events when there is a new or nice planes..). How will this work? Basically just collecting the event items on a certain threshold will yield player rewards, with the last reward being either AirCash or hangar slots. That will encourage players to actually send planes and try to get the event items. BUT keep the shop for event items obviously. Just add a new thing to the events and that is the "battlepass" style rewards. Either way it could be win, as they could add "premium" rewards along with free rewards and both groups of users (those who spend money and those who play freely) will be happy...
   

So yes, in my opinion, problem with this game is keeping their users play it. Speaking for myself, I just get back to Skyrama when new event is on and only when the event has new planes, or ones that I already have and want more. So to keep the players actually playing the game more frequently, I suggest updating at least one of the points I have stated.

 

Hey guys, isn't this an April Fool's joke?

Skyrama2018

 

I mean, we know one thing for sure:
They are not working on current skyrama version/instance.

1. Look how long it took them to fix the friend list "green light" problem after database update - meaning someone submitted a ticket with the bug to the team and it wasn't even their priority to fix it. I presume the bug fixing itself took 15min maybe 30mins yet we waited 2 weeks (or more, I don't remember).

2. They didn't even bother to center the "Level 121" or use the same font / font size, meaning it's a cheap "Paint" edit.

So yes, probably a joke OR something really big. Probably the first though, disappointing...

 

I don't think it's a joke to be honest
But I also don't think it's much more than some extra levels (although I hope it's more of course, would be a little bit disappointed otherwise )

 

There have always been bugs, but I see that the game is slowly developing in a very good direction, which makes me very happy.

 

Please add an option to scroll through radar. Or some sort of slider for easier navigation Or sort by plane type and time. Same planes can appear as a stack rather than singles. Really needed QOL for when u have thousands of planes to service from different players

 

the first thing to do is to improve the efficiency of the game and eliminate the flash. Only later does adding levels make sense.

 

I dont think it was an April Fools Joke. I really hope it is something new
