What are some of the tactics being used with the Starship and does it have any real value amongst the other plane?

I was very excited too, upgraded it to the maximum and... Crap. It's impossible to make profit out of it. I think the only profit is by sending people with bux, but you can do that same thing with other planes and get a better reward. What a real pity, because the starship is cool, but uselesss.

Seems pretty clear, after seeing what the developers have posted on that forum, that the low bux for first place is specifically to 'punish' Toucharcade members, as the Toucharcade flight crew will be first.

We could all switch to polygon and make them win with us second. That would show em

Wow less bucks for first place-stuff you nimblebutt!

And starship is rubbish!

hahahahaha... punish the people that always come in first... nice... guess we should all stop doing jobs, or switch over to another crew?? =oP

Nah... I"m sure they'll do something about this, to make it all even out. NimbleBit has some VERY creative people on their staff... obviously... =oP

I forwarded time once to try it out. My airport in berlin is now closed and it doenst appear in the events screen that their are floodings.

I also started the game today and I recieved my starship, but it disappeared after checking in.

As said as before I forwared time yesterday once.

What to do?

So is polygon the name of the crew that always takes second?

For some reason I'm no longer part of touch arcade flight crew. I was experimenting with other names just because and now it Won't let me region even though I typed in toucharcade. Any help?

How do you make money off flying the starship? Every route i put it on it still costs me $1000's
