Welcome to Hoover!

Hoover is our first LT game world since the launch of Riem in 2015!

Find all the information about the configuration on our blog: http://www.airlinesim.aero/blog/2017/12/19/hoover-launch/

Also check out the article about the namesake airport...it's rather interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoover_Field:)

And last but not least, a direct link to the game world for your convenience: https://hoover.airlinesim.aero

Have fun!

Quick question :slight_smile:

Where is the list with countries that are open to investment?

May i ask why it costs 6 instead of 4 daily credits?

"Last but not least, a word on costs: In our opinion, LT game worlds represent the essential AirlineSim gaming experience. The oldest ones have been around non-stop for more than 10 years and we intend to keep them running for as long as it’s feasible. But as you might know, player numbers drop significantly over such long periods of time and the respective game worlds barely generate enough revenue to keep them financially viable. Some of the measures described above aim to mitigate the issue of player numbers, but for Hoover we also decided to increase the price per holding to 6 credits per day. It should help keep the new world profitable in the long run, making it possible for us to continue offering new LT game worlds."

Thanks :slight_smile:

Wow you guys really cut down the latam open market XD

Would that be possible for the team to open more open countries...like micronesia XD

Is it possible? Yes.

Will they do it? Probably not.

I'd guess the main reason for this change is to limit mega, global airlines that leave little to no chance to the competition. As an example, one player could control at the same time the two of the biggest countries in South America (Argentina and Colombia), Australia and New Zealand (via NZ thanks to the agreement between the two), Qatar (mega airport), ...

This, associated with the closure of the IPOs, will limit airlines sizes to roughly that of their home market. While the countries open for investment may be for some of strategic interest, they are no more large market by themselves. In the long run, it should encourage fair competition.

Opening more markets IMO goes against this objective.
