Some tips -when you have longer routes, it's usually more benefitial to have multiple planes rather than upgrading the existing ones. Also when buying multiple planes, don't just spam click on them because they'll travel at the same speed, departing at the same time. You want to spread them out a bit. -when an airport is nearly full, check where people want to go from there and why it's so crowded. if the only link from city A to city C is via city B, and A is filled with people that want to go from A to C, maybe you should introduce that route, and perhaps relieve some traffic from A if a lot of cities connect to it
I feel like the developers have hurricanes and tornadoes confused. Hurricanes don't "touch down" and they don't randomly hit inland cities without affecting coastal areas first lol
RCE: "I've got more money than I know what to do with I must spend it all" The game: "Actually you're scored on your time, and you could have finished like 15 minutes ago so you get 300th place"
As a person who lived in Ohio, you're making the Columbus and Cincinnati airports significantly more important than they are in the real world, and I thank you for it, lol.
This mode would be more accurate if they'd have regional weather disasters like tornadoes for the midwest, earthquakes for the west coast, hurricanes for the east coast, etc. instead of hurricanes for everyone, lol. Maybe sprinkle in some other stuff like flooding, blizzards, hail, etc causing delays and cancellations.

I always remember Gallagher's joke about American westward expansion "they got all the way to the west coast and were pissed there was no more land to take, they marched angrily up and down the beach and then decided to build piers."
As a Texan, I felt some type of way about Laredo Airport being on the map instead of the San Antonio Airport... and I think the game meant tornadoes instead of hurricanes cause there's a lot of landlocked cities getting hit 🤣🤣
Same for new haven Connecticut, we have an international airport near Hartford (close enough that calling Hartford i wouldnt complain because tf is a windsor lock)

I went to school in Rowlett (about 15 miles or so from Dallas), and the drive was like 5 - 6 hours, but is was ok. Eventually, hurricane Harvey hit Beaumont (close to Houston) and my aunt evacuated. We evacuated and got a house in Mesquite which we quickly moved again due to mold issues. My mother found a partner somewhere else in Mesquite and we lived there until we moved to Waxahachie (about 45 miles south of Dallas.) which is where we are now.

As someone who has only lived next to Evanston, I too, was severely confused seeing Evanston as a major airport for Chicago. Normally this game does designate Chicago as the major airport. I wonder if one of the devs is a fan of Evanston 😏
Just by the thumbnail i can tell this will be good, also the map to the left of the thumbnail is rather accurate to real air trafic paths. • you got the pronunciation of Indianapolis close, i pronounce it a in-de-an-app-poli-ice
RCE, I don't think we should let you anywhere near the FAA. I've seen hurricanes touching down in places NO HURICANE SHOULD EVER SEE. Also, if you think Indianapolis is bad, try pronouncing "Terre Haute". It's a little town in the state of Indiana that has an airport.
Evanston is pronounced with a soft E. Also nobody in their right mind would put a major airport there as it's like a 10 min drive to Chicago O'Hare airport. Not ur fault. Love ur content.
@@chrisr4482well what the fuck do you mean then? 'soft E' is nonsense. In Slavic languages softening of vowels can refer to palatalization, which while still colloquial is the closest you would get to a conventional understanding. Sincerely- this linguistics scholar

No, I think most people realise how big America is. The thing that tends to get us is how empty it is in comparison to places like Europe, where people are stacked on top of people.
as an american, it is absolutely COMEDY GOLD just listening to you try to pronounce our city names, although you would get over a third of them just by knowing how to say the word "new"

They also mainly hit the mid west
And don't affect Columbus Ohio
Even in cities next to the great lakes no one in the Midwest is worried about hurricanes. X}
I think you mean airquakes
I feel like the developers have a little more than that confused...
RCE: *worried about hurricanes*
Also RCE: *connects more flights to Baton Rouge*
Considering the hurricanes were hitting ohio mostly, baton rouge was ok
Lol considering a lot of hurricanes that hit the US come from the Gulf of Mexico.

and they require you to connect 3 new cities, which costs more than $200…”
sounds about right honestly
Fr that was really on brand for us
I was so, SO, anxious with you spending so much money with so little time left :') my heart
You should make a small world network, with high degree of clustering and few "outside" connections
I love this series. it just hits the spot
Fact: You can only connect 49 states by commercial air travel. Delaware has no major airports.
"A hurricane has touched down in Dallas."
...what?
I especially love how Houston is safe during that time.
Love this series!
As someone from Indiana, your pronunciation of “Indianapolis” was very good. Cheers mate!
Interesting to see a hurricane in Cincinnati, since it's not even close to a lake. The only major body of water there is the Ohio River.
Global warming???
I'm a native Chicagoan, lemme help you out
eh-ven-sten (Evanston)
Don't know why they didn't just put Chicago but whatever.
I love how when I looked it up, to check to see how close it was (because I was thinking of Chicago too) it says it’s in the “Chicagoland Area” 🤣 “Chicagoland sounds like a budget version of Disneyland lmao
As someone who has only lived next to Evanston, I too, was severely confused seeing Evanston as a major airport for Chicago. Normally this game does designate Chicago as the major airport. I wonder if one of the devs is a fan of Evanston 😏
4:47 spuderman, spuderman. Does whatever a spuder can. Spins a wab, antime. Catches thooves, just like flays! Lahk ooooooooot! He is a spudermaaaan!
9:30
Matt: i feel like I'm making too much money.
That's....the point. You make profit by making more money than you spend
Funny thing actually is that it’s true you can fly from LAX (Los Angeles Int’l) to Boston Logan non-stop it just takes 5hr 20min.
Why the heck would you have heard of Cincinnati? I live in Cincinnati and have barely heard of Cincinnati
ha thunderbirds reference! love it!
We just call it Indy here in the Midwest
Just by the thumbnail i can tell this will be good, also the map to the left of the thumbnail is rather accurate to real air trafic paths.
• you got the pronunciation of Indianapolis close, i pronounce it a in-de-an-app-poli-ice
Whenever I play this gamemode, I finish it in 13 minutes and just connect all my flights to Washington D.C. Even theones as far as Austin.
6:18 Already finished the game because I like to speedrun!
The fact that Fort Lauderdale got an airport, but neither Miami, Tampa, nor Orlando got one is honestly shocking
As I live in Dallas this city is very well known for hurricanes 👍
I was going to flip if he got an alert Phoenix got hit by a hurricane.
RCE, I don't think we should let you anywhere near the FAA. I've seen hurricanes touching down in places NO HURICANE SHOULD EVER SEE.
Also, if you think Indianapolis is bad, try pronouncing "Terre Haute". It's a little town in the state of Indiana that has an airport.
Evanston is pronounced with a soft E. Also nobody in their right mind would put a major airport there as it's like a 10 min drive to Chicago O'Hare airport. Not ur fault. Love ur content.
Yevanston? I think not...
@@tommsey_ttv nobody said anything about a Y.
@@chrisr4482well what the fuck do you mean then? 'soft E' is nonsense. In Slavic languages softening of vowels can refer to palatalization, which while still colloquial is the closest you would get to a conventional understanding. Sincerely- this linguistics scholar
@@tommsey_ttv it's Evanston, not EEvanston. That's all I mean. The history of hard/soft vowels isnt the issue.
@@chrisr4482 then just say what you mean rather than using specialist terminology (that doesn't mean what you think it means) to make yourself look smart 🤪 that's all I'm saying ✌️
When you look at the compass rose North and South are easy, and East and West spell WE across it. If you want to remember which way the sun travels just remember that it hates humans and that's why is spells EW as it travels across your compass.
Yes, pander to us 'Mericans! Glad you nailed the Cincinnati pronunciation, that's my city!
Happy because jfk airport in Atlanta is the busiest in the world
A moment of silence for the Great Lakes.
Hey game devs, how is a hurricane going to hit Cincinnati? Like ever?
You should try house flipper sometime
Very like when I see a video of fly corp come out
0:13 name of Polish cities is nothink the hardest to pronouce is Polish surnames🇵🇱
Ehh not really, just learn gibberish and then put “ski” or “ska” at the end depending on whether they’re male or female and you’re done!
@@kgapaneseschoolgirlb Easy? Type (or paste) "Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz" in serch bar (scene from old polish comedy - "How I Unleashed World War II". Also, it has "-icz" at the end, so in your face :P
@@Ajko89 Type (or paste) “sarcasm” into your search bar. Also, it ends in “-kiewicz” which is a suffix derived from Belarus :P
genuinely surprised you got indianapolis right so quickly. good job rce!
Let me just say congratulations on pronouncing Detroit correctly! I was getting nervous after you butchered Cincinnati and Indianapolis...
As a boi from Utah, I feel like Matt would have an impossible time trying to pronounce cities in Utah like Tooele or Manti.
A lot a foreigners just don't understand just how BIG the United States really is. Its a whole continent! Its not like Europe where you can get to a new country in a few hours. You can travel by car for days and not see an ocean.
It is factually not a continent, but it indeed is large
No, I think most people realise how big America is. The thing that tends to get us is how empty it is in comparison to places like Europe, where people are stacked on top of people.
The part about the government being cheap is so perfect
missed opportunity to say "not only air traffic but AIR traffic" (hurricane-air)
as an american, it is absolutely COMEDY GOLD just listening to you try to pronounce our city names, although you would get over a third of them just by knowing how to say the word "new"
I love Charleston. It is nice. 👍
Engineers find the most effective and efficient solution to a problem.
Its architects who come up with crazy over the top solutions.....
So going by the thumbnails for these videos, i think its confirmed that we have an undercover architect on our hands here.
I am so late, but so glad to be here!
Keep it up, my man!
Btw, can't you pause and then upgrade, Matt? Like you do when you need to fix stuff in Mini Motorways? Oh well
You said Baton Rouge pretty well, you could pass for saying it here also I love your videos
i would have a bunch of mini hubs connected to the main hub while keeping the main hub connected to many things for when there are not enough cities for mini hubs
I found it funny how you made most western areas connect to atlanta bc that's how it is irl
