Gameplay
In order to play Jets you must have active iPhone or iPod Touch with a working internet connection and access to the iTunes Store. After downloading the game from the iTunes Store and opening the game, the "home" screen appears. You are immediately awarded "honor points", usually in increments of 10 units. The points can be used to create cash in the game or enhance the users's health, fuel, energy or friends on the user's squad. The choices for allocation of these points are found in the "General" screen. Once obtained money can then be used to either purchase weapons, deposited in Fort Knox, or to purchase any number of military bases.
Weapon systems
Once the weapon systems icon is touched, the game opens to a screen the gives you three options on how to spend cash: guns, armor and planes. Each of the items is important because the accumulation of each item helps in the "battle" section of the game.
Air strike
Once the Air strike icon is touched, the game opens to a page with a list of 10 other users/pilots on an equal experience level. Tapping on the attack button next to another user's name starts a plane to plane "dogfight". A statistical battle occurs and based on the number of planes, defenses, weapons and squad members each user has, a winner is determined. In many cases the winner acquires cash from the loser as well as being awarded experience points. After the "battle" is over, the user is returned to the "list of fighters" and is able to attack again. When an attack results in the loser's plane being destroyed, that user is no longer seen on the list of pilots having been replaced by another randomly selected pilot/user, presumably from anywhere in the world. Regardless of the outcome of the battle, each attack drains the user of energy and health; more health is lost when the user/pilot loses. Once below unit 26 in health, the user/pilots is sent in for repairs. You can pay cash for the repairs or restoration of health, or just simply wait a few minutes. One unit of health returns every 3 minutes. The user can also go to the General and spend respect points for a full health refill(1 respect point) or a full energy refill(5 points). If you run out of the honor points, the General will gladly sell them to you for real cash through the iTunes Store.
Squad
One of the most critical components of game play in Jets is the number of users on your squad. During each attack, members of your squad are allowed to attack with you up to 10 times the level your on. If the user is one level 2, up to 20 squad members may accompany the user during the statistical attack, level 3, up to 30 and so on. Thus one user with same number of weapons, armor and fighters as another user, but with more crew will prevail in the statistical dogfight, taking cash and experience.
Squad members are acquired by asking other users to join your squad. The game offers a "location invite" tool which employs gps and triangulation to find users geographically close by and invites them; or the user can "post" the user's 9 digit friend code and ask other users to punch the code into their "invite friend by code" section. For example, typing in 322 061 776 will notify that user of an invitation, once 322 061 776 responds, the number of crew members increases near the top of the home screen.
Military Bases
Owning Military Bases is the only way to generate recurring Cash Flow Income in Jet Fighters. Generally, the income from your military bases will significantly exceed that earned from fighting or missions. Given the high upkeep of the better weapons systems and the relatively low income from the available military bases, it is especially critical that you maximize your military base income. The Income provided by military bases is earned every 50 or 60 minutes depending on your character type. This occurs whether or not you or actively playing. Upkeep costs are automatically deducted at the same time. The key to maximizing your income from Military Bases is understanding the concept of Return on Investment (ROI). If you view military bases as an investment of your cash, then the ROI on that investment is equal to the income provided by that base divided by its current cost. This number is commonly expressed as a percentage and indicates the rate of return for that particular base. When choosing which military base to buy, you should always choose the one that provides the highest available ROI in order to maximize your investment and income. The cost of each military base increases by 10% with each purchase, decreasing its ROI. This provides incentive to advance in level in order to unlock additional military base types that provide a higher ROI. Online Jet Fighters Calculators can help you determine which military bases you should buy given your bankroll and level.
