I just got done visiting the Simviation Screenshots Showcase when it hit me. This fella, Executive Producer Joshua Howard, is either blind, ignorant, a dupe or an evil genius. First off you want to turn people on to your simula,,,err game, wouldn't you at least choose a piece of land that would really intice people to buy your product such as Alaska? (nothing against Hawaii).

Plain and simple MSflight ain't free, your bascialy downloading the demo, just like you were able to do with FSX. To get the rest of the world in FSX you had to buy the product and then activate it.

So this guy is a genius, throw out a tidbit of the world, say it's free, AND THEN WE'LL CHARGE THE S#!T OUT of THEM for the rest of the world in tiny pieces, and we'll even throw in an airplane (of OUR CHOOSING) everyonce in a while. Right now it's going to be $20 apop, Wonder what it will cost ya to get Alaska?

Sorry guys if I'm starting to sound like I'm ranting, but I did have high hopes for MSflight just as any hardcore simpilot would when you hear that a new sim was going to be born.
I was just getting use to FS98, than along came 2002, just got FS9 running great, and along came FSX, (I felt like I was going thru girls just like when I was in highschool ) which at first was a love/hate relationship, but because of sites like SimV and a few others, it was like going to a marriage counsler and I learned to love FSX and got it to run great, Than all of a sudden bam Aces was done, not even train sim was going to be produced anymore, no prob FSX will be around for a long time. But than one day MS got there act back together, and we were looking at the next gen of flight simulator. Oh boy oh boy oh boy! I was even looking foward to getting tourtured again setting up a new sim . A new challange.
Well, like I said earlier, I stayed away commenting on MSflight cause I was waiting for the product to come out.
So I'll finish off with this. The reason I won't be getting flight is because I'm not going to pay for bits and pieces of it. I'd rather invest my hardcore,,,,, I mean hard earned cash into bettering my PC to really run FSX to the max. But the main reason I won't get flight is because the geniuses behind flight underestimated one thing, the bond of us "hardcore" flight simulator hobbiest who really make what flight simulating is all about, the flight sim community is why MS Flightsimulator got up to FSX. And if there's no true MSflight community, than MSflight is truly not for me!

PS: Sorry if I never left a comment in the Simviation Screenshots Showcase ( I've been going thru it from the start), but for now I just want to say that the shots are wonderful and I look foward to checking them out each day when I'm on the V! Cheers  

"Flight" is going to be shitty

Remember it's only Hawaii & only going to be Hawaii. The extra scenery you can buy are the other islands.
