Building Junkies?

[Jabus]

No, I think he meant what examples for bonuses that would be good for newer players

That depends on how new I guess, I too look from a lens of my current position in the game. Before I was flying Eagles I did not consider buildings as my challenge. I guess pre level 50 or so, my focus was mostly on getting the resources to fly larger planes. I guess I also chased stars early on but being keen on growing my airport, I found that stars added nothing to that. I’m sure that there are members who have different challenges and can comment further about that. For me and at my current level, it’s buildings from standard flights.

Examples of which buildings you think would be deserving of the award, and how many instances.

These can then be considered and discussed. Its quite an open question at the moment.

Ok I understand your question now, in my opinion it would be a set of 6. But that does not seem to be viable given the comments in this thread. It could be getting all six per type of plane as suggested by @TimP although that would be a medal only available to level 80 plus plus plus members. Having said that, I dare say that getting to any 6x on one destination would be predominantly level 80 players anyway, unless one looks at a destination like a map and threw fuel speed ups and bonuses into it. In that case it would be deserved anyway, in my opinion.

Most people seem to like the idea, I think it’s just a case of getting 1 or more specific suggestions.
I would be against having an award for every single building collection, even if it was for 6 of each. Myself, and many others will have all of these already, which would then put a huge burden on the forum staff to award so many medals.
I wouldn’t say they are easy to do, but there is a certain inevitability to it if you complete the daily missions and have at least 1 adventure building.

I like @Chloe11111 ’s suggestion, as these items do not drop from adventure buildings, the only way to get the items is to fly. Getting 1 of either of these is a significant achievement.

The investment bank is quite a good one too, as it is more difficult than the others.

But I recognise that you were thinking of something a bit easier. So it might be better to group by plane type, or commercial/residential. I don’t know... I don’t want to hijack your idea, I’m just trying to explain that having a medal for 6 buildings of each collection would immediately make a lot of people eligible for several rewards.

I have about 100 golf clubs

I understand the predicament, the flood of requests would cause a problem. To slow it down just a little, it could be limited to having to send in a screen shot of the 6 buildings being in the airport to count. I know they could be removed again but in some cases finding the space and waiting for their construction may deter people with many sets from applying at once. Not a solution but it would slow some down.

Making things difficult to achieve because of the long term players feels like an incorrect direction to me.

If you’re giving a reward for having 6 buildings the fact they are in the warehouse is irrelevant. Youd be telling players to spend hard earned cash to warehouse after. Better to go by plane type, but honestly flight building collection items drop from adventure collections as already stated so collecting a building doesn’t mean you’ve flown for it.

Another option for forum rewards is pax/week milestones. 25k, 50k, 75k, 100k, 200k, 500k, 1m.

Now that would be fun!

Well, I think that would bring even more work for the Admins here when everyone posts there new weekly stats and want a badge than with the Buildings...

I don't see it as more than the star club really. Once you achieve a level, you don't continue posting for the same level.

And if you post at 200 k you’ve obviously done all the lower levels, so just post when you get the next level up. No different to stars. Just a catch-up job at the start. Much easier than buildings

 

[Barkmi4 (Mike)]

I like that idea. Maybe it will go some way to explaining to G! the difference between legitimate players and those that are manipulating things.

 

[TimP]

Yeah I understand, but it is then a reward that can only be claimed for the future if not someone has done a screenshot of a run in the past.

Stars stay forever and also the buildings, what was the initial question for this topic, can also be claimed when you have reached it in the past with an actual Screenshot of the Collections or the inventory.
