I was having my usual Discord conversation with my Master of 69, quite possibly the oldest active member on the site and we came to the following conclusion. <3

Man, I still need to figure out how to do an Empire :lol:

 

Still figuring out what kind of main airline I should create once my conventional airline in S1 is done and dusted.

I said it before and ill say it again, i didnt use the goldmarks to win any S1914 games. But if you think that, good for you i guess? (i guess it makes the losses you suffered a bit more... easier to take)

 

:P

In S3-A he is currently doing flights at 1$ a pax and getting unlimited demand-and ruining things for everyone else-kinda cheating

1. No such thing as unlimited demand.

2. Anybody can do $1 routes.

Order every single plane (including Russian aircraft). Start in a very tiny airport (the biggest one you can find with no competition at all, preferably 100% untouched). Put 1000 A380s on each route. Join an alliance with other airlines made by you. Set the price to $1 or something like that. Use Scam IFS and IFE.

It's not an Empire lol. With no feeder airline, there's just not enough demand.

Hold on... let's look at these stats for a quick second:

 

747-400DD minimum runway distance: 4,973 feet.

CRJ-200LR minimum runway distance: 5,347 feet.

 

747-400DD maximum seating capacity: 660 passengers

CRJ-200LR maximum seating capacity: 50 passengers

 

Yup, this explains why those "godzilla airlines" are spamming my regional routes with 747s.

I just converted a fleet of 200 or so planes from a "normal" setup making 75mil a day to what you call a spamline...

 

my income stayed almost the same.. maybe dropped a tad but its early in the world and there are lots of empty routes. 40 russian planes that were making 300-500k a day on a normal routes are now making 100k a day on 1$ routes.... but my other flights from the hub can stay at the reset price while other airlines lower their fares. 

 

It's a trade off. In long run it will be more profitable I think. I guess you don't really understand something until you just do it and learn. Is it foolproof? No. Now that I kinda get it.... it appears there is room in a large market for several large spamlines to grow and eventually that will lead to an interesting battle, now I get the point of allies and making a plan.

 

For now... for me... this seams more like a feature than a bug. It adds another level to the game and I don't really see it hurting the average joe... I played for a bit and other than watching income levels grow out of my hopes of ever being in the top... it didn't hurt me as a new player. If there wasn't spamlines... I'm not sure how you would start an airline past the first few months and hope to ever make a single profitable route or find a single empty gate.
