Community Insight:
We can crash into the twin towers.
There is nothing good about this game. If that is NYC, then we guess we were wrong thinking we are a nyc native, born and raised. Planes cant crash. They harmlessly pass through and fly underneath the ground. Maybe this is supposed to be a SUBWAY game.
Although we dont mind the major part of New York City and the statue of liberty being the only clear landmarks, we would like to see a World Trade Center memorial to honor the lives lost and heroes sacrificed to help save people who lost their lives to a similar occasion, which we are pretty sure The Whole reason that people fly that close to the ground is for. Aside from that, we like it.
When we get on the game it just gets off so pls fix the problem.
We have played the original Pilot! For some time now; really liked it so we got the NY version. It feels more like flying as the responses are more realistic, however, it is quite difficult to see the runways until you are either too far to one side or the other or completely passed the airport. Terrain could be improved to be able to see the runway a little better. Ive also noticed that if we dont line up just right when landing, we fly underground until we pull it back up and do a go-around. Not really realistic in that sense but Im glad we have a 2nd chance.
Just got the new update adding more planes and better terrain. The game crashes upon opening. We are on iPad. It's a good game, but we would very much like to actually play it.
3 seconds into the game it just crashes.
Worst game it wont let us fly itll just kick out of the game! THIS GAME STINKS LIKE UR BIG FAT SITINKIN POOP.
The game started coll and fun but the plane is so hard to fly and accebd abd decend.
Please let us crash the planes and we are board of not doing that we are giving the game 1 star because we payed 60 bucks for this game on our phone and its not worth it so you need to fix it nowwwww.
We can even play the game it just crashes dont install this game EVER.
Whenever we click on the plane , it just automatically kicks us out of the game. Update the game IMMEDIATELY.
Whenever we open the app, and begin to choose a plane, the game crashes bringing us back to the app menu. Fix you game.
This game is horrible it doesnt let you land and has horibble graphics.
We think its a bad game because it glitched us out 3 whole times.
It keeps crashing ugg it only worked once we give it 1 star.
Ever since the new update the game crashes, Im on an iPhone 6.
We tried to play for 1 minute and it got really boring it would be less boring if the city was actually loaded in.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE CONTROLS SO HARD!? Hey DEVELOPERS can you just please make the controlling a little easy AND CAN YOU JUST MAKE THE LANDING EASIER because while we AM TRYING TO LAND THE PLANE ALWAYS GETS TO FAST even when we TURN ON THE BRAKES and that ALWAYS MAKES ME CAN,T GET STOPPING ON THE AIRPORT THAT IAM TRYING TO GET ON.
Every thing is perfect dont change anything.
We played for a few hours and it said we got coins after every successful flight and we look and it said 0 coins fix it pls.
We think your game should be more creative like moving planes and an ATC tower that controls what you should do. Also to be a more realistic flight simulator, you should spawn us at a gate or parking spot, not just right at the runway. Thats all we suggest.
This game simulates the way planes fly across many areas. There a few glitches and bugs Id like to point out so you guys can fix this. 1. When you land on the ground, if you keep going facing down, youll pass through the floor. 2. If your playing the game sideways with the home button on the right side of the phone, the advertisement before the flight flips the gameplay and you cant flip it back. And also, the planes are way too expensive, and you have to play for hours on end just for a few planes. We have 3 possible solutions to this. 1. Make it so you earn more money each flight. 2. Make the planes less expensive. 3. Add a few mini games in to earn extra money. Other than that, the game is great. 4 Stars for now, lets see if we can fix these few things.
The update deleted all of our old planes that we had.
Okay so at the beginning we really liked the game. It was cool how you had to find the landing path and everything but now after Ive had the game for a couple days, they have started putting ads over the joystick so that when you try to control the plane, it just takes you to the App Store and tries to have you get the game. Its infuriating!!!!! Please fix this by moving the ad elsewhere. Thanks.
This game is fun but the cash says it is at 0 even though we have a lot of money. That needs to be fixed please. Also, we only go to the same airport every time.
Why is this game is OK is because we dont like how Manhattan is so small and for some reason its a very very hard to land for us, and we dont know if we can give this game five stars its a good game but its not that good for landing in New York City Manhattan is way bigger than this one also theres not that much buildings outside of Manhattan in fact there is none its still a pretty cool game with the helicopter its actually pretty easy also theres a cool thing with the helicopter once you turn that bar down on the left side, yeah that one, if you turn it all the way down the helicopter stops in mid air we think it makes it easy but still we couldnt read it all the way but still its a very fun game we hope you install this because we did and its really fun except for the things we said about us reading it to stars still good game though and we like to play it we hope please game creators read this and figure out why they need to improve some stuff and how we appreciate their game.
We hope there are plans to add control options. We like to fly using the tilt of the device and NOT the joystick. Please add so we can upgrade the rating, we usually love Tri One flight games. We hope these reviews are read by Tri One, this is 8-25-2018 and the glitches are still bad. 1.) Cant fly with tilt – still only has joystick option 2.) The screen flips upside down right after the advertisement 3.) we flew a flight and the score remained 0 PLEASE FIX THIS TO FUNCTION LIKE YOUR OTHER GAMES.
We can not get in the game it Lags us out.
We played this game once and Im already bored do not download waste of time.
The graphics are awful, the depiction of nyc his terrible and every time we land no matter how careful we are we explode.
We payed 9$ to get all the aircrafts and it scamed us it did not give us one.
It will not let us purchase planes.
Why did you have to add ads.Every time we select our plane and this and that we get to the rescue world ad and then kaboom it crashes.we live in New York so we were looking forward to the game!we don't like most games with ads.So we're rating this 0 stars or try to.
This was a game we played to pass time & it was pretty fun for a bit Until the app had an update then thats when it all went to poop. All of our flight hours/coins were gone & we lost all of our flights which we worked so hard to get, we clicked the restore but nothing happened. So yeah Im a little frustrated with this app, now we cant play it cause we refuse to start all over Fix this.
Just another stupid pay-to-whatever game. Coins dont go up to 6675, no matter how many times you play. Dont waste you time with this garbage.
Terrible game. Nothing like pics. Good comments we read had to be spam. Not even close to simulating New York. There is a airstrip and then a low quality field and then another air strip. Pretty terrible.
This game is terrible you are supposed to land on the ground not fly underground.
We had all the airplanes but after the last update we lost them all, and it won't restore our purchase. Please fix this matter.
After new update, we lost all of our progress. Also, the game is not playable.
The game is good! We just wish the graphics were better then it would us similar to flight simulator.
Awesome game Ive only played 3 times and we already have 1,000 coins.
The game runs well no adds really smooth take off and landing but graphics could be better.
Great game needs more 3D cities.
We're reenacting the miracle on the Hudson.
Over all it is Really fun little bit hard to park.
Dis app iz fine we luv it but it hard.
Great game but they could make the coins easier to get they take a while to accumulate.
We like the game but need to add buildings and better 3D.
Lot's of fun ….. Could make the air strips a little easier to find. We prefer using the iPad to control the plane and not the stick. To hard to find the runway.
