New update - Subscription feature(4/3/18)

[KingJJ]

I didnt know there was a legit effort to prevent players from leaving. Where did you get that info?
Also, fully agree that the 100 item limit should be the main thing to go. It's literally a bottleneck.

Note also if you purchase the subscription it AUTO renews unless you cancel at least 24 hours prior to current subscription expiration. As i have just hit lvl 80 doubt i will be utilising this feature, something more on greenies only for me now. Still got 000’s of hours of flying to do

So windows platform players will not get this? Why offer something that only some players will be able to benefit from?

Simply because in this aspect, Microsoft can't seem to get its head out of its ass and offer what its competitors can. I can't blame GI for this. They're seeking new revenue streams, and if one platform doesn't offer the ability, it doesn't make sense to stop progress and the withhold the revenue that comes with it.

So if you take the first week is on us offer, does it automatically sign you up to the silver sub?

Doesn't matter a lot to me as I don't spend $$ on the game, but I would imagine there will be a lot of people who will be upset.

Except if they lose too many players. Then it's like shooting yourself in the foot!

Thank you

I'm fairly confident the user base leans heavily towards Facebook, iOS, and Android over Windows. Would be curious to the numbers however.

yep windows players lose out again, they shouldn't roll out stuff like this, if we cant all benefit from it, this will change game play and its not fare for all, i dont generally pay for this game but rubbish decision on GI

Windows Store doesn't currently offer a subscription service we can use, so there'll be no subscription there in a foreseeable future, I'm afraid.

5.6.11 update on iOS has only subscription included, nothing new otherwise.



I define 'later' as one of the future updates that isn't coming within a week. That might be a month or two depending on the variety of reasons. We'll try to do it sooner rather than later, as always!

And I wouldn't exactly call iOS a 'lesser platform' for Airport City which is easily proven even by device distribution of players on this forum.

Free2Play , Hello Ivan. Well this makes much more sense that it would come out in Android before ios. Android has 77% smart phone market share while Apple is about 16%. Nor does it make any sense that ios gets this 2 months before Android.

I updated before 2hours. I restarted iphone 4-5 times and nothing appears yet about the subscription. Any other with the same problem?

Thanks thought I was missing something. I downloaded the update on IOS this morning and can find this offer anywhere.

Click as though to buy greenies, there are 4 icons at the top. The left hand one being a crown, this is where the subscription offer is

I feel so stupid.... thanks

This feature is tempting but for me is too expensive. I still have to buy some greenies from time to time and my monthly budget to this game doesn’t allow for both.
I guess that I would pay around 20% of the current price.

 

[Davescharf]

I couldn't find it either Joe.

As for whether this should be launched or not because it's not on Windows I'll be curious who would pay $6 or $20 a month for those benefits. I doubt it will be a high percentage because it's a lot of money. Some may do it to get no breakdowns but I don't think it's going to change the balance of power in any significant way. To me the videos was a much more impactful thing.

Now if a free parcel or 2 of land a month were thrown in then it may be a little more compelling but even then I'm not sure

Hmmm I don't think I'll ever pay more than $10 a month for it.

Here are the prices in the United States, rounded to even dollars:

Silver: $10 per month, $40 for six months
Gold: $30 per month, $120 for six months
