Most times, flying in Torn can be quite boring with you just watching your plane fly. Of course, you can always go to the forums and read stuff in the newspaper, but that's not always satisfying.
May I suggest addition of games you can play while flying?
For example, poker could be added to flight games and you can play while flying.
This way, some players might even lose all their money before getting to their destination, while some might even win big enough to buy rare items sold abroad.
This can probably be seen as you playing the game (poker) online while flying, so a device has to be purchased (maybe an Android phone or) or just another feature in the laptop. A credit card could also be bought to load in the cash since it's not a physical game like the regular casino poker/games.

topic misleading "Fight games" maybe flight games not fight games

Anyway it good idea was suggested many time before with extra thing like fc mails sending while flying (that one would be super useful for leaders/co-leaders)

Cheds answer last time to this thing was something in these lines - "flying should be boring that is the point"

anyway R+ maybe this time it was accepted most likely not, but worth to try

i don't know about this as the way I see it flying is designed like this on purpose, to be boring/have nothing to do as flying is profitable so you must need to sacrifice something so not everyone is just making easy hassle free profit from running items back, so i believe the idea is you are sacrificing your ability to do anything tc related on the way, or have any other kind of fun to obtain profit.

Adding shit like Poker games to flying imo throws the main idea and point of flying out the window. Because then you aren't sacrificing anything by flying if you regularly play poker/enjoy it, you can just start flying as well at the same time, also you would probably get an increase in people flying and this could mean some items are going to have a higher supply leading to a reduction in those item's prices etc
meaning this could also have unintended negative consequences by shifting item prices weirdly

Gonna have to be a R- from me for now
Toph [2184889]
ur suggestion was broken down by kinglion, instead of just disliking his post and bumping ur pointless thread, do you have no counter argument to what he said or r u going to blindly just keep bumping it until it reaches 100+ and then ched denies it for the same reason (which it will because people would like this change but that doesn't mean its a good change, e.g why not suggest u can buy from bazaars from hospital next? people would probably r+ it but that doesn't mean its good for torn. its counter intutive. )
Ihechikara [2450404]
I made a valid point already. I don't know what else he wants to know. And he sure didn't ask for me to elaborate on anything. So, you being rude right now doesn't actually make sense. If you like the idea, rate it. If you don't, then state your reasons like he did and leave. Ched would evaluate on every answer here. Thank you.

Why don't you just go outside like a normal person..... Torn itself is boring and flying + racing are probably the worst aspects of Torn.

Not to mention, there are 100's of games better than torn, no need to force yourself to be on here lol.

And no, its not a valid point at all, its just something which isnt needed.

"For example, poker could be added to flight games and you can play while flying."

Like seriously??

If you have a laptop or access to a pc you can already " do things" while flying in Torn so your android suggestion is unnecessary.
You can already :
1. Buy and sell stocks
2. Read , respond and create forum posts, including reading tutorials to get better at Torn and make Torn more interesting for you.
3. Check your events.
4. Peruse the Hall of Fame for mugging and chaining targets.
5. check your emails
6. send emails
7. Chat with people and enjoy the social aspects of Torn
8.Read the Newspaper.
9 Program viruses
10. Take your ass to discord and play games there.


I do not think anything else needs to be added to flights.

Maybe non profit games like snake/ Tetris? Then you can play for the high scores

But yeah, I'd probably just read BuyMug magazine tbh.
KingLion [1477459]
wth, i don't understand bro why not just search up snake/tetris online on google then, why do u need to play it through torn?
for the high scores specifically for torn players?
