Awarded Almost 1,600 stars, but not really

[Pit1024]

Hi neighbors,

Today I flew for last time alliance map for stars. At least until GI introduces new plane type and new maps...
My max star number is 1,593. I have not played the Russian event otherwise my max would be 18 stars higher.

I still have few stars to collect but I would like to challenge other players for most destinations with at least one star. Here I reached today my max as well - 531 destinations (of them 500 3*-ed).

Congrats, Pit! That's a great achievement, even if you won't reach 1600 stars.

Well done, phenomenal number, and those alliance ones take forever!

 

[Robbie Laker]

Amazing, that takes such persistence. Well done Pit 🏆

What, exactly, do you think you missed?

Thanks - trying to do 10 things at once

OK. It’s a good number but hang on. The max number Pit himself said is 1593… he’s 1557….. still 36 off and admits he has flights to go… why the banner? I think this question he asked is in the wrong place… he asked a question… not asked for a reward.

Moderators.. the question is NOT give me a banner as I’ve almost finished (only just over 50%) but should be… what is the max number accepted on the forum for the last banner… does it’s number include the ridiculously difficult 1000 helicopter flights? Or should those be awarded a different trophy as they’ll take 10 years to finish….
So is it 1593 as is the accepted number, is it 1548 with NO Airport City helicopter flights included? Or is the number 1578 so not including the Goldfinch 15 stars…. And change the number on the 1600 banner for something more appraise like… All done and dusted!

Pit is not alone at this level. There are several others over 1500, even more over 1400 and a lot more in the 1300 so it’s a sensible discussion to have. Pit doesn’t actually ask for a banner… he’s saying who has finished more destinations with more than 1 star. He has 531. I have 507 to answer your question. @Pit1024.

If can get all the stars in the game (before there is no new destination and map), how many are there?

I don't think there is a definitive answer as it moves and depends on when you started playing. This is because of special destinations that are only available on events. If an event is no longer run, the destinations linked to it are no longer available, but players who have been in the game longer may have 3 starred them. There is a definite total for all the standard, excavation, alliance and space destinations, but its not the absolute total.

Yesterday I earned last star in flight categories regular, adventure, alliance maps, alliance tasks, QL maps and of course space flights.
20 more stars still available from Easter Cheer event (1) and Airport City event (19). I expect next event to be exactly Airport City (helicopter 1,000 flights) and I‘m already planning how to earn some of the stars. I’ll try to earn last 4 Sparrow stars and 5 second Crossbill stars.
If I manage to do that, I will have to collect in the next years 5 third Crossbill stars and 5 third Goldfinch stars. That might take many years (6 at least), so I’m not sure I will keep my motivation.

I know - you have to find a challenge in the game somewhere. Once you have 3 starred all the regulars. Mine is the excavation, alliance and other map flight destinations and buildings. Once they are done . . . .

@Pit1024 … can you identify the unfinished master and specialist flights?
i know there are destinations that are no longer available - Russian event (5 or 6 destinations), and 2 from Thanksgiving day. Can you list unavailable ones?

I was lucky to 3* the Thanksgiving destinations before they disappeared. Unfortunately I have never played the Russian event.
My missing stars are from:
Airport City event: 5 Crossbill destinations Specialist; 4 Sparrow and 5 Goldfinch destinations Master
Easter Cheer: Corfu (Condor) Master

Unfortunately we didn't have the Airport City event this year...

Just found that info:
Post in thread '⭐️ 1500 ⭐️'
https://www.airportcitygame.com/threads/⭐️-1500-⭐️.47563/post-577919

Further to that I found that note in my files:
Thanksgiving Day
2020, 2021 and 2022: Norfolk Island, St. George's, Plymouth and Fukuoka replaced by Egypt, Rome, Chicago and Oslo respectively

One step further towards perfection

I have still to fly for one third star from Easter Cheer Condor destination and 5+5 third stars from this event’s Crossbill and Goldfinch destinations.

Congratulations, Pit. A lot of us (like me) won't ever be able to reach that many stars. Hopefully, GI will release some more flight destinations, but my hopes aren't high. Great job.
