Why is AVSIM supporting flight?

Featured Replies

AVSIM is an organization for flight simmers. With Flight MS abandonded that market. So, why hasn't AVSIM abandoned MS?Flight is a dumb arcade game.

From the video's I've seen posted on YouTube I have to say I'm disappointed. Clearly aimed at a completely different market to us. Hopefully it will encourage users to migrate to FSX. If it does, then it's worthwhile. I won't be be downloading it.

This treath is going to be deletet in5..4..3..2....
And, I had nothing to do with it!

Have you spent any time reading and understanding AVSIM's position on FLIGHT and any of the other two dozen or so flight sims out there? Does our position matter to you? I doubt it. Read the previous postings we and many others have made and then come back and let's talk.

You are right, AVSIM is an organization for flight simmers, not only for FSX simmers; it also supports and provides space for all other flight simulators.Your other comment is yours and only yours, but let me put it the way I see it.One guy/gal + FSX = HappySomeone else + Flight = HappyAnother one + FSX + Flight = 2 times HappyAnd another one + FSX + XPlane + P3D = 3 times HappySo apparently, everybody can be happy!On the other hand, if we (HCS) could make a formal and serious petition to Microsoft for an FSX SP3, and get their attention, it would be great, and f they charged for it, I wouldn’t mind.

Why ask a question that you must know is going to backfire on you? Just don't waste time reading the forum if it bothers you that much.

I don't get all these posts.It's been my impression that this forum is for all software products which simulate virtual flight. FSX is one, X-Plane is one, Prepar3D is one and Flight is one.These posts are the same as going over into the X-Plane subforum and saying "X-Plane is crap". The FSX subforum, the FS9 subforum, the X-Plane subforum, etc, is still there. If you don't like Flight, you don't have to be here. Other's want to give it a chance and want to use this subforum to discuss technical issues and experiences with the software. I understand peoples dissappointment, but nothing you do or say here will make Microsoft change their plans, all it's doing is cluttering the forum up.

The thread lasted longer than he did.
ROFL -- Good one :LMAO:

I do understand people's frustration with all this. I even have to admit that when I first read about Flight I was very excited but as the months went on I became disappointed. As I said above, if the only thing that comes out of this is that we gain more FSX simmers then as far as I'm concerned that's a win win situation and even, perhaps, more of a reason for an FSX SP3?

I don't like FLIGHT but Im actually glad it is some what promoted here at AVSIM, it may draw new blood into our weird little world of flight simulation, and that can only be positive for our hobby.

Registering and getting banned all within two hours is NOT a record, but close. I have to worry about our world sometimes... With posts like his I have to wonder what our collective IQ is... to ponder that too far is scary. :Skull:
