Is it against the rules to have more than 5x frequencies?  I remember a little while back I got a nice reminder (a warning) about my frequencies.


The rule was no more than 10-frequencies (cumulative) per route. That was dropped back in the 50's round (because I ran a 63.5-frequency route :lol:).


HTF did you manage that?!? :shock: with a concorde I'm guessing right? :?

With turn times, even a concorde can't run 64 frequencies. Most likely multiple airplanes.

And to be perfectly honest, what the hell is the point of running a route 64 times?

Multiple aircraft on the same route.  My record is 98x in another game - people have broken 100 freqs.

What's the point of that? At that point you're losing money on routes. Plus you have to buy 10 gates on each end.

The way I see it, Airline Mogul is a game. Yes it can get annoying when people put, in Pacific's example, 100x + freq on their routes, but it is a game, try to have fun... and maybe even try to break 110 freq on a route! :D

The Concorde wasn't around the in the 50's. ;)

I used one plane. Distance was 18nm. The plane wasn't very fast, but it had a very short turn time.

Eh, thanks, but I would rather break my own profit records ;-)

The dynamics of the other game can be very different which led to plenty of gate hoarding.

Then, there's the 'idiots' in AM who like to role-play instead of profit maximising.  They are the ones chucking small planes at 4x frequency or something.

Profit maximizing involves sitting at the computer all day long and chucking planes onto every airport in sight. Wow, how fun :roll:

At least roleplaying forces brain use :roll:

***points that jetbridge is not necessary for you to exit the aircraft.

1. Did I point out that the exits have slides?
2. Grow up.
3. Stop being so full of yourself... (or upgrade your processing ability first)
4. Have some self-control instead of posting unless posts everywhere.

Now, get back on topic... or else... :x

Did I point out that slides are for emergencies and this isn't an emergency?

And you're my mother now? :roll: [/end sarcasm]

Anyway, back to the topic: 1 euro routes are stupid. 100x frequencies are dumb (that is not to say however that it's not amusing). Discuss.
