Large/Med/small airports

General discussion
1

I know developers of WOA were going to implement generic airports and I have two questions regarding generic airports.

  1. Are the generic airports going to have a fix location? If not, can I place an airport near where I live ( Vancouver,B.C Canada)
  2. Do I have the option to chose the size of my airport to be small, medium, large or extra large?

Thank you for your hard work you made this game playable and enjoyable!

Happy flying!!!

  1. I think they are doing a fixed location (such as CNN they mentioned).
  2. I think not. Each generic airport has the size fixed.

Hello, the Airport will be placed by the DevOps team, the Idea is that the players vote where the next one should go. At this moment there is too much manuall work so it cant be placed by players them self.
The Size will corespond to the real airport at that location.

How are the generic airports designed by location?

I hoped that would be the case. Didn’t want a generic JFK with 10 gates and a runway :laughing:. Really looking forward to this feature.

I’d suggest that each voting round for a generic airport will be done based on a shortlist provided by the devs. Otherwise we might get all the usual suspects or some biased results.
Plus I imagine some generic locations might need some airlines and destinations added for realism.

Lastly, getting a generic airport in the location where a player is hoping for a full airport, squashes the hope of actually getting that full airport. So they might want to vote strategically. (Just like getting your local beloved airport in a generic version might lead players to avoid it.)

It might sound like I’m dumping on the generic airports, but I’m really just trying to give arguments for having a shortlist. However you do it, still looking forward to it and loving the game. :+1:t2:

I don’t agree with generic airports, I would prefer the game to be as it is and just put their efforts into releasing a well-made one as it has been so far in my opinion.
