[Other] - Custom Backgrounds

World of Airports Gameplay Suggestions

:bullseye: What is your suggestion?

Add a feature, where players can buy background images using in-game currency such as silver planes. We do get a new background each time an update is released and the previous backgrounds are no longer available. It would be cool to buy those “old” backgrounds with silver planes (one background could cost 1000sp, for example), so that you can customize the background shown in the game. Newly released backgrounds could automatically be applied when they release, so that players can see what’s new. Changing the background should bee free once you have bought them. This could add a new goal to achieve: collecting all backgrounds previously released. Additionally, there could be an other option, where players can download the backgrounds that they have bought.

Add an option in the store where you can choose and buy the backgrounds

:balance_scale: Why is this a good idea?

This allows players to purchase backgrounds using in game currecy. By selecting them as a backgroud in the game, they can personalize their game experience. Additionally it increases engagement because they become something collectible. This would be something purely cosmetic and offers a fair option to get old backgrounds that are not obtainable anymore when a new update releases. When a new update releases, the new background should be shown also if it is not already bought, so that players can see what’s new: players can always change it after the first time entering the game after the update. Every time a new update releases, the previous background should not be available for free anymore but you can purchase it in the shop.

To add here: a list of all historical backgrounds that I could find.

Loading screens through the ages

That’s great! I searched for such a list before making this suggestion but I didn’t find it, so thanks for that. I still think that the idea with the custom loading screen is good and the possibility to download them directly from the game would make it a lot easier to find them for players who are looking for them (like me)

Another thing that could be kinda cool is if they made “customizable” backgrounds, where you could change both the plane and the background airport visible, and maybe even where the aircraft is located at the airport.

they wouldn’t be able to get the same type of image though, cause these are AI generated or else very good photoshop but i doubt that.

I would love that, but I think that this would be too complicated, given the actual benefit that this would have. Iwas suggesting to use the images that they were already using, so that they don’t have to create a whole new set of images
