Community Insight:
We like the game and in that in your huge menu of planes you dont have to buy it with real money and you can just get in- game coins and also there is 1 huge bug in the menu where if you switch plane to plane back and forth very fast they go in another planes viewing spot and float and fly everywhere but we dont want this to get removed a bit though.
The recent update is horrible. We have stopped playing the game as the new 3D view not real anymore.
Like if we make a game it like if when we started it, the airplane hit the ground and just said we crashed and make us crash out.
So when we were playing the game and unlocked our first plane which costed 30,000 when we spawned it we could barely see our plane idk if this is a bug because we did not know where our plane was at.
This game is ok but the planes you buy glitch where you cant see them but you can fly them.
We checked on this after we deleted it and it improved a lot and we think thats good but when you spawn sometimes you crash and die this is why 4 a star review and if you fix this we will give a 5 star.
Too hard to control. Needs gyro steering.
The 3d update was cool and all but it just makes it a carbon copy of all your other games. The 2d version was what made this game unique from the rest of them and we think you guys should add a toggle to switch between the 2d and 3d versions of the game as the 2d version is so dearly missed we loved it so much.
This game is always crashing and kicks us out also the third skinny plane doesnt work when you try to use it.
We tried to install the app but it didnt, and it always was glitching, we got to turn phone power off and on.
Its a scam really and truly, the map wont even load and there are no helicopters. And there are quite a few glitches.
Its good and all but theres one thing non stop ads every time we crash an ad comes it would be good if you could please lower the ads.
Lemme tell you about PILOT! This game, once you get used to the controls, is kloogy BUT the ads are an obstacle to Obed enjoyment of PILOT! It really depends on the kind of person you are, yes YOU. Do you like a game with simplicity, charm, straightforwardness, and simplicity? This is just one of those games that throws you in for a good time. Do you lie planes? You might like PILOT! If you dislike 2005 google earth graphics, or watching ads, or initiation by fire style game play, this might not be the game for you. Its worth mentioning the information on how to improve the game is in these very reviews.
Playing via Apple IPhone 12. Top left instrument cluster/nav makes it impossible to see where youre supposed to be heading. Tried on multiple planes with the same layout.
When we get on the game its okay, but it kicks us out of the game when we get on. So we really want them to fix that.
Since you fixed it with version 8 1. Distance to go is gone 2. Iphone is also missing compass and speed.
This game used to be so good before the major update. With the update we lost all our progress that we had made over many years. We had most of the planes unlocked but then we open up the app and its gone. Sometimes you will get closed out of the app if you try to play. Also the new controls are very bad. Steering is what we have a problem with, when you try to steer the plane just drifts around in circles making it impossible to fly. Any time we try to unlock a new plane it wont load into the game and the steering problem gets so much worse. This game is not playable anymore.
Hi This is a good game but these developers through this together in a afternoon we cant unlock most of the airplanes and cant see the new airplanes you buy they are just in usable and cant select them most of the time Please fix this.
Would not work at all, all of the planes would crash befor we hit the throttle.
Hello stranger, we just wanted to let you know that this glitch or thing has been happening to us too. We thought it was a glitch at first but when it started happening alot of times to us we got really mad and quit playing this game for about 2 months, after those 2 months we completely forgot about this game and that we had it downloaded, when we saw it downloaded on our home screen, we were confused because we couldnt remember downloading it. Before we deleted we tested the game and what it was, when the glitch happened to us again we finally remembered everything and how we quit it. When we deleted it we scrolled down to look for the creator of the game until we found your review, we completely relate to your review. And its not just you, just to let you know your not the only one going through this situation:). The only thing we really like about this game is that they give you a GPS to where your destination is so you can get there. But the bad thing about the GPS is, it only shows you how far you are from the destination, it doesnt show you where the actual airport is or anything, you have to find it out yourself. The only way we find out where the airport is, is we look for the most realistic part of the place, because atleast they make the airport look more realistic than any other place in your destination so you can land and get there safely, well not safely(due to the glitch)but yeah, anyways your not the only one experiencing pain in this game Laptop 10000000. :), bye.
We just started playing this today and the 1st two planes we can see when Im flying them but we unlocked two other planes and we cant see them when Im flying them.
There are so many glitches like when you want to test the plane with an add, it just buys the plane if you have enough money. Our planes dont spawn so Im flying nothing.
On mobile YOU CANT FLY and the ONLY REASON we DOWNLOADED THIS WAS TO CRASH MY PLANE.
There are so many ads every mission is 3 ads. We watch a ad for a plane and it exploded all the time its lame its hard to control the planes overall if the developer fix this that would be great we would rate it also this game WILL SCAM YOU AND LAG YOU we bought a plane in this game for 30000 in game cash and it crashes for no reason and it makes you repay it again also this game will lag your phone IPad or PC DO NOT BUY we RECOMMEND IF YOU DO NOT WANT LAG.
We do not know why we even considered playing this game the graphics are trash and its a rip off of another game called Airplane! (which is also trash) if people want us to play this again they might considerUpdating it.
Opens, you select plane, and get kicked off. Even when you get a free flight by watching an ad, it kicks you off. Developer gets credit for the ad, and you dont even get to play. Some bugs in the game, eh.
Same always crashes when we try to play it.
Downloaded this game for our son and we noticed most ads associated with this game have been very inappropriate such as kissing avatar games. We have chosen to delete this game!! Once they choose to monitor the ads they are advertising maybe then we will consider allowing our child to play!!! Until then you should beware what your children are viewing through this game.
We like this game, but it is just that every time we try to fly, we crash. Takeoffs are hard to. You have to turn, even when your landing and just flying, all the time to get on track. But overall, we would give this a 3 out of 5.
The first few minutes are good until you try to fly and the controls are so sensitive it almost instantly crashes, graphics are good controls are not.
Controls are too sloppy and the plane doesnt react until you over steer.
It worked for a while butt then stopped and shut us out.
We hate this game the navigation is so hard if you make one small mistake the gps will increase the numbers instead of decreasing the numbers also we dont like that you have to spend so much money on one are plane you are not buying a real air plane you are buying a animated plan.
It doesnt feel right. We need to feel Im in control but not with this app. We know you can do better.
Hi it terrible because you can not land it are get it to stay in the air.
Good sound effects… Other than that, controls over adjust and leading to many unnecessary crashes. Hard to see runway direction beforehand.
It is such a good game us and our family love it.
What else can we do with our coins, instead of getting another airplane.
There is this little cute plane we really want. And Ive been working hard land planes but still no POINTS.
Fun game but we got it thinking it was 3D according to the pics. It's really a 2D top down game so shame on y'all for false ads.
Enjoyed the game, but did not play for several months. When we got back to it the controls had changed and most the planes we bought with game points had been taken away and cant seem to be restored. Another reviewer had the same issue. The joy stick is now pretty sensitive, but we like the landing process so we will continue practicing. However, we really LIKED the planes we had previously and quite disappointed over that.
Cant control direction, pitch, yaw with the button in the lower right portion of the screen. Not an improvement over prior versions by any means.
Controls are extremely difficult to operate. We are happy many other users feel the same.
This game is a good way to kill time but when the new update came out it would crash every time when we try to create a mission.
We couldnt even play it because when we clicked on a plane it would crash.
A few years a go we would play this game and we loved it. But now… It wont let us in the game. When we tap on a plane it kicks us out of the game! We are sad because we love this game. Please fix. Thank you.
We rate this 1 because every time we land our plane it wont give us our coins and the control is a little weird but we are use to it just fix the glitch and Ill rate you a 4 maybe.
Still not going to purchase AGAIN! Was this an upgrade? More like a downgrade. What happened to all of our purchased planes? Ive been playing for some time and had purchased the majority of the series so basically, we owned EVERY plane. Got news for you. Not purchasing again. When we go to select a plane it tells us to purchase it. If we make another selection, it shuts down the app Not good. We rate No star.
When we downloaded this game we thought it would be fun flying planes but when we launched the app it crashed. When then we tried reopening the app. Still crashed. Opened it for the third time, still crashed. Can someone help us here? Our iPhone is up to date and we have tons of storage.
