Air Earth

[Sai]

I started playing last March, and clearly I've missed what everyone is talking about. I think I've seen buildings in some experienced neighbors' cities that produced greenies for a certain amount of time and then produced coins. Is that what a BMC is?

You are almost correct in describing it, except it is for silver and gold coins only, BMC stands for Bank, Mint and Casino

Correct. You bought with silver adn gold coins and they produce greenies. You can restart for the same amount of gold and silver coins and it will repeat whenever you want - this is the Mint, the casino and bank are similar but different numbers of greenies for different cycles

Mints are great, they have the best ROI in terms of required golden tokens and amount of greenies produced. I personally prefer casinos as they provide 6 greenies every 6 hours for 30 days for half of the golden tokens. Restarting all 6 casinos requires 450 golden tokens and it is possible to collect over 2.1k greenies (as I am not paid to play AC I collect always around 1.6k). This explains why a lot of "old dogs" players are able to "waste" greenies during events and make a huge progress within an hour. Actually my old airport had 6xBMC, but GI never restored all of the buildings (I quit to play from 2016 to 2020 and GI lost my airport) despite the fact I had a screenshots documenting it. As said it is a shame that GI is not able to give a chance to players starting to play after 2017 to have at least one of each building as it would add a complexity and definetely as there are a lot of cheaters it would make the game more complex for everyone who wants to play fair and preferably f2p.

… if you're willing to spend greens on fuel.

One might argue that to spend would require a trade or purchase. Maybe “use” might fit 😉.

OHHHHH that is part of reason y the greenie purchase prices are skewed & make zero sense now.
Can BMC ever be purchased & more importantly can Alliance maps be bought by some method, ZERO chance of winning top 100 in weekly contests

Alliance maps can't be bought with any currency, in-game or in real life. In order to get maps, your alliance needs to place in the top 100.

. . . and MC have only ever been on sale twice, for about a week each time. Who knows if they will come back again?

No. BMC look like a thing of the past. Alliance maps can only be gained from being in a top 10 alliance - the higher up you go the more maps you get. Are you in an alliance ?

It's top 100

 

[Brian D]

It's top 100

Yes typo. top 100 to 51 get one purple map, then top 50 to 21 get two, 20 to 5 get three, 2nd and 3rd and 4th get 4, then Laguna, air Earth or until forever get 12

... and deprive the rightful winners of the prizes.

Have my own, but won't stay open & gave up. Even w/ others ZERO chance of top 100 b/c i not hardcore player & will never get enough to get Alliance maps

You don’t have to be a hardcore player to enter the top 100. There are plenty of good alliance that can help grow your game and get you there.

How long have you been playing? What is your PAX just now? You don’t have to play flat out to be in top 100, you just need to plan. The forum (and an alliance) will be able to give you good tips.

The number 100 is around 1m pax. With 20 members that’s 50k each, a little over 7k per day. That’s not impossible to do.

7k a day IS hardcore❕ Obviously i don't have plan & y it seems crazy getting into top 100.
I work from home playing >1.3 yrs .

 

[Madge59230]

But don’t look at the top group. They don’t play fair. Look at the 50 to 100 teams. They fly. Most will take lower players to help them develop but it’s better if you find an alliance who communicate through Messenger or Discord.
Post in alliances… see what the return is…… nothing ventured, nothing gained…. At the end of te day it’s fleet management and city organisation which help ….

 

[Tom-SUB]

I think it's horrible to be able to transport 200K a week（This refers to a pilot）, although I have seen some alliance members achieve this achievement before.

that is not so heart - without any cheating possible.

There are different phases as you develop your city over the time, but let's start with something more basic I was able to use after 1 year of playing (it requires to participate in red launches to get enough resources). 8 white condors requires 8x750 PAXs and 8x60 fuel (to purchase them you need 12M coins - again red launches would help). If you are able to send them twice a day it is 12k PAXs per day. The whole week represents 84k PAXs without a big issue and you could use the rest of the fleet easily for other goals. This was my strategy in the past (2013) when working on site did not allow me to access the game for 12 hours during working days and I played only from the hotel in the morning and during evenings. At that time there were no liveries and close to impossible to get S3 planes, so no chance to push numbers further like nowadays. This was all without speeding up the planes, which requires more resources and time dedicated to the game.

Will never use either services record & sell ur data, Discord clearly states it owns ANYTHING posted or said using their service & FB messenger = deep state AKA big brother

I'd rather not play fair w/ the top groups

 

[Paula]

You mean you want to cheat? Please don't cheat. It's unfair to other alliances who actually put time and money into the game. Plus, what's the point of the game if you're not even going to really play it?

Both @Madge59230 and @Pavolko_Gun are correct. 7k per day is far from hardcore. It’s a game of patience. When I started out I made the mistake of following the tasks in the side missions. It was ithrough the alliance and forum that I learned that is a distraction. You need to set your own goals. For me priority was tower/stands, space, town hall and reserve hangar. If you focus on your infrastructure first (ignore helicopters until much later), it allows good fleet management and you will get 75k without much effort……oh and have a magic square
