Me. And I'm speaking for myself from MY experiance with it so far.A few weeks ago I visted the "official" site and signed up for Beta testing. A few days ago I get an email congratulating me on acceptance into the beta program.(let me stop, right now, whoever says that its a vilolation of the "beta" agreement to discuss the existance of the email,,,,, cause I dont really give a rats arse)Ok, now that I have made that clear, I'll tell you that today i logged into the Windows "Live" official site to read what i am supposed to do and download the game. It said I could download the game on as many computers as I wanted. Cool, cause I have both fs9 and FSX on one dual core ddr2 computer that is setup as a simpit with 4 monitors and I have another gaming computer with a 1100T and 16gm ram. That would be nice to compare the two.So i read all the dont do this and dont discuss material and go to the Download page. Download a small 627kb setup file and execute it." INSTALL FAILED"Nice."Please visit our support page for solutions"Ok, I visited. its a frekkin Live for Xbox support page."Connect with other XBox users to see if you can find help"Right, nice, I dont even own an Xbox."Are you having trouble playing a game? Contact the game publisher for assisstance"Lol, Right.So there you go. I give up. They can have this POS karp. Anyone want to know anything else about the Beta? LOL, dont ask me. lololololol. The karp wont even start. aahahahahahahIdiots.

I'm sure they don't mind losing you as a beta tester either :( - but seriously, isn't it things like that the reason they've requested people to help with testing?

No installation problems for must Beta users.

Yeah, this sort of thing is why it's still in beta.

the fact that you are the only one to report this suggests that the problem isn't with Microsoft.

Besides, if you don't like the direction they're going with Flight, get involved with the beta and tell them directly. Microsoft does take beta feedback pretty seriously.

How would I know the direction they are going with Flight? Dont put words in my mouth or hijack the thread about whether the game will be good or not. That isnt my point.I pointed out the circle jerk that happens to even get started in beta testing.. Send me to an Xbox site for help? Really? And the site says contact the game publisher? Really?And I'm not the only one to report this. Theres another guy going around in circles too.In addition I can also report the issue on two different machines I have here. One running XP32 bit and another running W7 64 bit. That eliminates my ONE machine as an issue. One machine wont even download it, the other wont install it.And the REAL pisser is that they send me to an Xbox site for assistance. Got to be kidding.Oh and they arnt to happy about this issue over on the beta forums either. I'm pretty sure they've cancelled me but like I said above, I dont give a karp. My alligence lies with the consumer. If they cant get beta testing smooth for a consumer, how do they think they can make a product that a customer would buy? I'd say that about any product.Frankly it should be embarrassing to send a PC user to an "Xbox Connect" site for technical support and then tell them to contact the game publisher..If it wasnt so hilarius....on the Xbox page was a button, "connect to other Xbox users for help in solving your issue". LOL.Make you own opinions as you will. I just repoerted my experiance with the "Beta". Those are the facts as I clicked on them.I really should Youtube this circle jerk procedure before they ban me. LOL. Video doesnt lie.

That's the silliest thing I've ever heard. Look at the special effects that are done in movies. If those can be achieved, then a simple video edit can be made. Just sayin'.If your experience is so bad, boo hoo. No need to break the NDA and wine and wine about it, because guess what? Many people don't care.

It's a beta. It's unreasonable to expect the same level of support that you'd get with a final, released product.
