FSX BETA

[thebrelon]

here are some, strange, news regarding the beta: http://blogs.msdn.com/tdragger/...

it seems that the ones who expect to D/L the beta from torrent and this kind of thing may be disapointed...

I'm rather surprised that the guy from M$ doesn't seem to know more about the beta release.

another thing I'm wondering: let's say that the beta won't be released before september (fair assumption...) and FSX is due to release, let's say, beginning of novembre, it gives only 2 months for users to feedback M$ and M$ to make the appropriate tweakings... and even less if we consider the time to burn the DVDs, pack them, and send them to dealers all around the world....
the beta has to be pretty close to the final version otherwise....

my 2 cents

Hmm... another strange excuse. And just today i've read another one from an "official" dev. They say that the codes in beta are older than the demo so they rework them and that's what causing the delay.

I just feel bad for people who paid the subscription and never got a response from fileplanet.

Here's the site im talking about http://blogs.msdn.com/tdragger/archive/ ... x#comments

That latest blog post is more than a week old and it was posted merely a few weeks after the release of the demo. Remember, things can change in a very short time.

EDIT:

I was referring to M.R.Maiornikov's last post. As for the other one, well...

And, here is Monday's blog entry. It seems that now flightplanet is holding things up:
