Bad Microsoft! Bad! No cookie for you! Angry

Angry

I've flown Flight vs. FSX on about a 1-10 ratio over the last week with FSX being the 10...

I hereby withdraw any support I have given Flight over the past couple of weeks. It's just too bad. No traffic, no atc, no planes, no nothing but a big payout for MS for DLC. I'm out... Angry

I really tried to be supportive, but it's just not there.

When Flight first came out I think everybody including me tried to be positive about Flight.

But how can you really be positive about a broken game?

No ATC, no AI, no planes, no scenery. It refuses to pick up the throttles on my quadrant. No point in trying my radio panel as there is no ATC. The only thing that it has doing for it, unlike FSX, you don't find any trees in the middle of runways Grin

I really tried to be supportive, but it's just not there.

To me this isn't about being supportive, Its about to be realistic confronting the truth a truth of what we see ,as Matt says , Quote:

I will add no 3rd party add ons in the future ,different Keys ,No Jets , No more than Just than Hawaii (I wont let then Manipulate me that NOW they are making the world ,I see a LIE ,another manipulation from this company because I got the feeling that things are not gong so well as they planned )
Flight Its what It is ,unless you buy more island ,more airplanes (propellers) Its what you see

I don't know what's going on about few members that has the need to defend something (No U wing Nuts Wink

Wink

) that Is what it is , again this is not something that comes to replace older versions ,..it can't..Its ridiculous

It just another game that it will be on the top for few month ad then will be forgotten While FSX still will be in Millions of PCs around the world beyond Hawaii..

The way M$ advertising and this whole Month of a top secret super secret FS?? has become in a huge disappointment for the FS enthusiasts , I wonder How many airplanes and Island they has sold until now?

Did the Business is going well M$? I don't know what kind of Mind runs this business ,but I bet they have sold a bigger amount of what they sold FSX to Lockheed Martin, with the whole world ,did it worth the big business ...you can't drive marketing and people's mind ,and by these kind of actions you will end Like Pan AM ...in bankruptcy

I mean its like this really - if your food on your plate is brought out 1/2 cooked, and it Tastes like utter S&%# , why try to convince yourself and others that its still alright to eat, as long as you over look, and can put up with the Sewer Rank and Smell & Taste, other than that its really ok, ok,, here you try it ~ ! Come On' Mikey, try it, Mikey, he'll eat anything ! Remember that Old TV commercial , from the 1970's ? Give it to Mikey he'll eat anything Grin

You know what makes me so angry? M$ never even finished FSX properly. It was flawed from the start. I could not even come close to estimating how much I have spent upgrading PC's & replacing PC's just get it to run halfway decent. Its all I have read on forms for years now. But I persevered. I stood by M$. I knew they would come good in the end. I had faith!
What do M$ do? Do they fix it? No. They call us a "sub genre" of flight sim, turn their back on us all and then have the gall to try to get us to buy there snake oil AGAIN by calling it Flight.What happens when the last FSX disk has been sold on the shops? What then? Thank god I'm nearly 60. Hopefully I wont be around to see the death throws of Microsoft flight sim. M$ RIP Sad

New types of sims are coming: Outerra is a pretty nice one. You should take a look. It's a all round sim with realistic physics for planes, orbital flight, cars, boats, etc.
And the scenery is breath taking too! Really! It's not finished yet, but it's very promissing:

Tried the demo and it looks good, but no flight dynamics at all.

After watching the video of the Apache flying at tree top level in the valley, I'm sold! I've never seen a flight sim with anything that looked that good!

Yeah, I can't run it on my laptop so I can't really tell. I heard the flight dynamics were still basic at the moment, but updates are coming...
From what I've heard they use the same type of simulation as X-plane, which, if made properly, is very good.
Even so, the sim is still in pre-alpha stage. There's still a long way until it's finished. But the more we support it the better!
Here's another video:
