I really don't think MS give a monkeys what us flight vets want, otherwise they wouldn't have released the team that made the likes of FS9 and FSX.

This latest offering is a game, pure and simple.  Yes it looks nice but once you've taken the wrapper off it's as boring as hell to simmers.

Someone has eluded to this before but I think this is a cynical attempt to 'lure' in non simmers who like PS3 and XBox type flying games in the hope they get hooked and maybe go on to purchase add ons.

Just my two cents worth.

[quote][quote]Okay, I'm sure there's going to be a lot of these, but I'll be quick.

Flight is perfect.

There is no such a thing as overkill. Only unworthy targets.
