What's Asobo's "Save the Date" announcement?

Just asking?

On an average day I'm called by many different names that aren't my given name...mostly by my wife...and most of which would be replaced with "word not allowed" by the forum language filter 😂

There's a difference between a person and a simulator.

If someone called it a completely different name like "Asobo Flight Game #20" yeah that would be wrong. But FS20/FS2020 is close enough to the actual title it doesn't matter.

And in addition to this, I'm sure Microsoft and Asobo are quite capable of standing up for themselves if they are bothered by the name in any way. I really don't think they need someone constantly derailing topics in this forum on their behalf.

Thanks for enlightening... I can see the resemblance between Microsoft Flight Simulator, or MSFS as it is also known on other forums, and FS20 or FS2020.. Makes sense for some.

Personally I'm delighted to finally see the specs for FS2020.  Now I can plan exactly what PC I'll be building for the release.

 

Some of the posters in this thread though, eewwwwww.

FS20

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it has been stated on here a number of times that FS20 stands for "Farm Simulator 20".

Coming back to the original topic of this threat:

I am still confued. Wasn't there to be a save-the-date-announcement only ? I mean, logically speaking, if you announce - or send out - a safe-the-date you give people a clear, fixed date in the future, weeks or month away, which they should save in their calendar. Isn't that the meaning of a save-the-date-announcement? Like: "Folks, I'm going to get married on 6 September 2021. Save the date, You'll get an official invitation later!"

So to me it was pretty obvious, that some time at the end of April (no exact date was announced for that in the DR, by the way) they would announce a date months away that we ought to "save" in our calendar. What else should that be other than the release date?

I’m delighted too. But c’mon, Mengy,  be honest. Deep down inside you were really hoping that this was some huge, jaw dropping news. Huge - like the first time you saw the E3 trailer.  Huge - like open beta starts June 1st. Huge - like releasing October 2020. Am I right?!? It’s ok. You can admit it! No judgment here. 😂

ChaoticBeauty With all do respect, your wasting your breath on him, he's beyond deductive reasoning.

Clearly you have trouble with deductive reasoning 🤭

Asobo proclaims that we "Save the date" for their important announcement so we should expect something more than "specs"...  You understand? 🤣

Specs are important.

Not worthy of "save the date",  IMO and a lot of others.... Look at the poll.

They wrote it wrong it should be “date your save”

I took a break from Avsim for several weeks because I was fed up with the way discussions are conducted here again and again.
