Airline Tycoon 2 (computer game)

Customer Review

This morning I wrote that I would not buy this game after a weak impression of the demo, not even 10 minutes it was a nice man gave me the product (At this point, thank you.).
Therefore, now but a detailed review after almost 8h friendlies:

Let's start with the image of:
The graphic was significantly up nicely (3D) compared to its predecessor, but it works relatively fuzzy and slightly washed out and some "outshines" in my eyes. There are always ugly bugs what the interface As (menus and buttons are mainly above the other.)

Game Pass:
Kriegt grade still 2 points. The hedged item of routes works relatively well, but the game play is not always catchy, even for veterans of the first part. Often it takes a moment until you understand what is to be done.
A long-term motivation is lacking, there is hardly larger fleets or "competition" with the enemy can prevail, since many features have disappeared compared to its predecessor.

Sound:
Grottenschlecht, just abysmal. The voices are just embarrassing, sometimes even a little racist. The annoying music that announcements can hardly be compared with the funny announcements of its predecessor.

Unlike its predecessor, I feel the game in many respects as a "politically incorrect", as "needs" of the interior designer naturally gay and the banker be Jewish .... Why?
Whatever the predecessor. For those familiar with the series times a little "what's new" and "what is missing" Comparison:

New:
+ Graphics
Paint + aircraft from outside
+ A few options when Sabotage
+ A few options in advertising
- Lots of loading screens
+ Occasional random events Slightly loosen the game
+ A few more options in terms of security (prevention of sabotage)
+ One can in the flight schedules now schedule maintenance breaks (or even must)

No longer necessary:
-interaction With competitors incl. Share purchase, acquisition, etc.
-Last Minute travel agency, there are still last minute orders, but only in the normal travel agency
-Ladenöffnungszeiten ... Meanwhile, everything has always open what some out takes "difficulty"
No longer -Filialnetz..Gibt it ... this it will be virtually impossible to operate a fleet of charter flights as the majority of orders, only "one-way" from their own airport wegführ ... But this elaborate fun "rumtelefonieren" by charter contracts and thus partly. whole "Round the World" trips by aircraft deleted
-gate Handling has also been deleted ... There is always enough for all Gates
-Treibstoffhandel Was deleted
Although -There are a few gimmicks, but this change mainly the appearance of its own shape ... real effect in the game, I can not tell ... By the way: The laptop is missing.
(-Frachgeschäft Missing ... Well, was missing from the original at the beginning auch..aber anyway)
-Anzeigetafel What the competition is so is also missing
-It is not possible to take off and land the own aircraft (even after the patch) to see
-Briefverkehr Also lacked ... was partly. Funny thing because so came in to spam ...
-Orginale Aircraft in vain
-The Plane editor was slimmed down, although there are more parts available, it is only the modification of existing models possible
-The Distribution of the engine in business + Economy is no longer possible.
-Personalmanagement: The staff can not "flying" machines are allocated = You want to replace a pilot at a machine that flies through the daytime? Tough luck, take her ... also will no longer automatically assigned to the staff of a machine an entire day from the routing out that must be done by hand
-Funktionierende Consultants ... The consultants give only the "News Interface" from their two cents and is not worthless .... worth .... It was different ..
-interaction With passengers (thought bubbles, "Jam at check-in") are also gone.

In general, the game controls no longer as smooth as before, because you have to click through the pretty tough loaded dialogues (and no, that is not on my system, this is brand new) ... The load times do the rest ...
Oh yes, for that matter system: Since my Schlepptop exactly meets the minimum system requirements I have installed grade times for testing on my laptop. There, the game runs practically not at all ... people who scrape the minimum requirements is clearly discouraged from buying.

Conclusion: If I had not given it I would probably sell Game now on, gifts for sale but on principle continue not, therefore, hope that patch or mods it remains set .... Otherwise, given the current time no buy recommendation will.
