They are a big company, and lots of people contact them every, and quite frankly 8/10 cases could be solved if the END USER had read the manuals a bit better.
Tell me Fretnstuff, how was it MS fault that your real world weather did not work the first time? I think it's your computer that should be blamed not Microsoft. Real world weather works for everybody else? I've never had issues with it? It worked after you re-installed the game again, with the same game discs and all...which proves it's not a malfunction of the Sim, correct?
Think of all the many platforms, hardware, software that the game must be compatibel with. It's ALOT. Of course some systems will run the sim better than others.
First of the weather didn't (doesn't) work for everone else!
I forgot to mention that the problem started with M$ SP1 service pack! Which caused me to uninstall and reinstal many programs including FS9. And not using the same set of discs. So no it wasn't my computer it was a M$ problem!!
But my main bitch is the customer service in general, I go to them for help and instead of helping they were first blaming my ISP, so I go to my ISP and they were blaming M$. So I'm stuck in a battle between two companies who instead of trying to help are putting the blame on each other this went on for over a week!!
It was then that I realized that FS9 wasn't they only program that wasn't connecting to the internet, all of my M$ programs failed to connect (notice I said all my Microsoft programs!!) any non-M$ software would connect to the internet with out problem. Once again not my computers fault!! Obviously a Microsoft problem!!
So how I fixed it was got rid of SP1, and any and all M$ updates and bought a new FS9 and reinstalled it. Works just fine now!! So if my computer is to blame I guess it dislikes M$ as much as myself and millions of others!
