Back to School 2020

Here is my take.

They tweaked the new event system. I'm happier with this one because you don't get the big building reward unless you complete the event tasks. That's the way it should be. But I still have a few problems with it

1. This crazy idea of having to tap on specific level buildings. OMG - some of my friends (rightly so) have already upgraded the student residence and educational center to level 2 or even level 3. So not great for completing the "visit student residence level 1 20x). Especially for those that have forced delayed start because their platform isn't available yet.
2. Who is going to be the kind one to give up upgrading their buildings - effectively giving up additional flasks - to make sure that people who still haven't completed the "residence level 1" task can tap on something.
3. This is Airport City - not Where's Waldo. Why is the main source of lab flasks (required to compete the progress in the event) from a mini game of search and discover? There isn't a single flight (sent or accepted) that drops lab flasks! And if I wanted a search and discover game, I would download one that wouldn't make me play the same scene over and over again for 11 days.

This revision of the new event system is much better - I'm happy not to have Pharaoh Masks flying all over the place with everything I touch. But I would like to see them coming out of the buildings I'm tapping on ... and there should be some associated with flights!

Where is Waldo.....
Spot on though

I agree with you.
P.S: You have to buy premium class before you can get special rewards

That’s exactly the same as last time. Buy premium is a choice.

I think I hate this even more. Why do they like making things so convoluted? I keep being inundated with buildings I do not want, and these disconnected tasks like the mini game are boring and irritating. I miss the old event style so much.

 

[Nayeon]

The hardest part is as you say visiting the friend's residence halls who haven't already upgraded. I'm looking for these on Madlen's but haven't found them so far.

Don’t look plural. If we can on,y have one, she will on,y have one. Might do better with the other chap you can visit with the lower level game. Can’t remember his name

 

[Nayeon]

I haven't gone through all my friends, but I found 6 so far that have L1, and 3 with L3. No L2's yet. I did not go through all of them, but am trying to compile a list to make it easier on myself for the rest of the game. I have their screen names, but not necessarily their friend codes I'm afraid.

 

[Nayeon]

Question: what are the ways to get flasks to make "Progress"? From what I can see the only way to do this is to play the "Game".

And, the only way to play the "Game" is to complete "Tasks".

Are there any other ways (besides spending greenies).

Is there anything else I'm missing?

 

[Chloe11111]

@Nayeon flasks come from the mini game only. The only other thing I have seen drop them is the neutrino observatory.

To play the game, you need 5 passes. You can get some by watching videos (I think 1 per hour 5 times in a day). Alternatively, the game automatically generates a pass every 45 minutes.

You can also buy passes

That's as much as I can tell.

 

[Nayeon]

You can get some passes from completing tasks, but the key ones are visiting the EC and SRH of friends, and as we all know you can only visit so many friends a day. Keeping track of who has what, and even then finding it in their city, is a logistical challenge. There is a list of people and what they have at https://www.airportcitygame.com/threads/student-residence-hall-educational-halls.36638/page-5 and it seems the last post is meant to keep things updated, but not everyone has posted their friend codes.

Whew! Who knew completing this game would revolve entirely around tracking which friend has what?

Well, this time I admit that I was completely confused by the activity

You are getting passes from visits? I certainly am not

Me too! Thankfully we have this wonderful community where we can learn from each other. I would be lost without it.

 

[Nayeon]

And, can someone please sort this alpha by first column? Thank you so much!

I think she is saying you need to do visit to neighbors halls, which completes a task and gives passes. @Nayeon

 

[PLMerry]

It appears visiting universities is useless, for the event at least?

Hello G !, sorry for the translation ..... can't you display the buildings or coins above the buildings that you have to collect in a fringe color? At very large airports you look crazy until you find them.

Is any one having problems building the campus park and education centre?
