Captain Sim 777 Base Pack Unavailable?

Featured Replies

I personally would like to see a mention of Captain Sim that was not then followed by a torrent of negative comment and recommendations to use someone else's products instead. I am just a Captain Sim customer who is fed up with the same old same old every time someone mentions them.

fair enough, but CS have the reputation they have for a reason..a torrent of negative comment will follow that, you cant defend that.

The quote "you made you're bed, now lay in it'' is ringing in my ears regarding the comments..

The topic has descended into a tedious repetition of a well worn tune that did not need yet another airing.

I prefer to judge by my own experience, rather than that of others. I personally have never had a problem with Captain Sim customer support but then I do not make a habit of visiting their forum and posting abuse. I also understand more or less how they think and I do not think that way of thinking travels well across the Atlantic Ocean. There must be a much less demanding customer base, as they are still here and still producing new products.

I respect anyone's view but maintain that there is absolutely no need to attempt to force that view on others at every opportunity, this topic being a perfect case in point. The OP asked a simple question, received a simple answer that was exactly correct and then the wasps come along trying to do down Captain Sim and push PMDG when this topic was not only answered but did not at any point ask for any recommendation at all.

Lots of over simplification and matter of fact statements being made when they weren't even solicited. I'm aware of PMDG quality, but that wasn't the original question. One I'm regretting now because it was my own stupidity, but I really wasn't asking for a lesson on why the PMDG is 225% better (based on the price).

If you want to get the Captain Sim, then get it. For the price its a nice plane and looks visually amazing. Sure the PMDG is better but I would know personally as I don't have it. I have nothing agenst either company but you gotta draw the line somewhere and $180 for a plane w -300 option is it for me. Can I afford it, sure. Maybe someday I will try it out. But for now I will enjoy the CS. You get what you want.

My initial suggestion was pay the extra and get the pmdg 777

You offered absolutely no reason why he should spend the x-tra $$ and get the PMDG version. Hence, your so-called suggestion is really just an attempt at provocation.

You all know full well PMDG's is better..end of story.

No, sorry, "we" don't know this at all.

Are you still sooking 🤣

It looks like I am, yes. They say it takes one to know one. Perhaps this will get this pointless topic locked.

Just some gentle advice. Because someone resplies to one of your posts, there is no obligation for you to respond. Sometimes, 'tis better to remain silent and appear the fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt'...

@Ridvan Celik I am still waiting for you to outline reasons as to why PMDG is better than the CS version.

Mate I already told you, do your own research... google is your best friend. I’m still waiting for you to get that through your head. I’ve put the option out there that there’s a better 777... Yourself and the OP can search as into why and decide for yourselves... cmon you’re a big boy you can handle it. Stop sooking about it
