Embargo lifts at 8am UK time on Friday

Dont understand why they would do that

It's because real reviewers, and by that I don't mean the kind of youtube bozos who think the most important thing about a review is how fast you get it out the door so as to get the most clicks, need time to actually write or script a review, based on the criteria of wanting to do genuine research and offer genuine insights, rather than a desperate hunt for clicks five minutes after an embargo is lifted.

Such people are few and far between, but you can very often rate the worth of a review against its peers, by proportionally comparing them all on a linear scale comprising when they came out.

I just saw this polish guy on twitch stream it, he acted like he never saw a flight sim in his life. He got the premium deluxe edition. Lucky SOB. I dont know how he will review it, since he just spent 10 minutes trying to figure out why the alarms went off. As the nose and speed finally came out of the red barber band, it took him 30 seconds to send his 789 into a plunge 🙂 

Although it was quite amusing, and the views outside were stunning, I cant see the value in that.

Dont understand why they would do that, unless the reviewers get the updated sim that has many of the bugs we have seen with ap and oscillation etc squashed. I wouldn't like to see a review that is of the sim in a lesser state than what it will be on release. 

There's no understanding why MS will do that my dear Andreas.

That's why they're rich and I'm cutting the mouldy bits off my bread so I can have some toast.

We all have the same objective - and we're all coming at it from different places.

What joins us together is we're all trying to nail the Glide Slope.

When MS makes a decision to release their new flagship products to the one eyed basement trolls on YT you just have to ask yourself for the 100th time..."How can life be this way? MS is sooo rich and We are sooo poor". It just does not make sense. LOL🎪

I’m so proud of that guy for landing the 787. He buttered it at Amsterdam after crashing several times over the course of his 8 hour stream with 50 sim pilots trying to teach him how to fly like he’s the only passenger aboard an airliner that lost its captain hahaha. Cool to watch a newcomer get so much enjoyment out of the sim!!
