Ticket Time?!

Replies

  • This is total rubbish, why can't they just test things.

    I now can send 1 person as i have to have the game open for 20mins to generate a ticket, who the **** thinks this is a good idea?

    I guess they are aware of this?

    They need to fix this ASAP.
    If i didn't get 6 tickets today in daily challenge i don't know how i'll be able to send anyone on flight.
  • Edit: forgot I can't say s.u.c.k.s :p

    Yes, you can't say **** but you can say buttplug.

    LMBO! Good to know!

    You mean LMBPO, don't you? ;)

    I thought that was implied ;)
  • I was having the same timer issues resetting as others. Now it is the worst. Timer is stuck at zero and not moving at all. I really don't want to use donuts to do the daily tasks.
  • This was such a cool event, and then, AS USUAL, EA comes along and "fixes" something, and everything goes to hell in a handbasket.

    Similar happened for me as well, but after relogin 1,5h later, I have had 3 new tickets :)

    I think this is a temporary response to a glitch i saw on Reddit.

    People there were saying if you send 4 outta the 5 characters on the plane trip they would then task the last one waiting with one of there normal money tasks and that would cause 4 more people to pop up to be sent by airplane. They were reporting having 60 flights out at once.

    It works. I sent my last (Brockman) on a 1 h task and got 5 new travellers.
    Bu my husband still have a 2 minute ticket generator! Mine is 20.
    Although it doesn't reset if I close the game.

    Edit : Yes it does, if I stay away longer than I have left for a new ticket to generate. Example - I have 10 minutes left, 0 tickets. I do something else, game (iPad) close down by it self. I come back after 30 minutes, timer starts at 20 minutes again, still with 0 tickets.

    I'm iOS, hubby Android.

  • I was able to send two out about three hours ago. I now have three tickets, all of my people are freed up, but I can't send out anyone. It doesn't seem that jobs generate while there are already characters "flying." Do I need to wait until the two characters "land" before I can send out more?

  • Yes. You need to stay online 20 minutes to send a plane :(
  • Just get rid of the ticket timer.

    If you have two that can go flying, send only one, and the other one on a regular money making job. That should generate 5 new travellers from your available free characters.
  • this AM ... 0 tickets with 20 minutes timer >:)

  • I'm also having problems with the airport time. Every time I log in the counter resets to 20 min. I have not received a new airline ticket in almost a day.

    You have to keep the game acive for 20 minutes to gernerate a new ticket.

  • I dont have to great a issue of timer reseting unless I close out the app. Im using the S7 which keeps the game application open in the background. I do have issues of it bugging though and freezing on zero.

    that's what i'm doing now. I got out my older iPad [which is set to never shut down] i only use for streaming to just sit and get tickets for me. this is really frustrating!

  • So its next to impossible to get tickets. Rabble rabble rabble.
  • got the 20 minute timer, but my tickets are generating as expected even if I log out.... had 0 tickets with 6 minutes to go, so I logged out and came back 10 minutes later. Had 1 ticket and 16 minutes until the next one.

    slow going, but at least it keeps a steady stream of travelers if I log in once an hour to clear the tickets.

    Are you generating any new tickets, jippy?
    No I'm not. :(

    Is anyone else out there in 'forum land' experiencing this?

    I'm currently not generating any tickets. I put two people on planes just over two hours ago ad my timer showed 20 min. I left the game to do my other towns thinking to log back in in an hour or so and I'd have more tickets. Now I have no tickets and no timer.

    What do you mean with "no timer"? Dosen't it start over with 20 minutes?
