August 15, 20205 yr Just now, RobotRock said: The brand-new Flight Simulator from Microsoft and Asobo that releases on August 18, 2020. Ok, but how I can know, that you don't write about the brand new Aerofly2 from 2020 year, what is called FS2020 too? 🙂
August 15, 20205 yr This thread is ridiculous. Yes, the sim is called MSFS / Microsoft Flight Simulator. Yes, it is irrational to start a thread making fun of those who address it based on the year (which has always been a convention since the series began). Can someone lock this now?

August 15, 20205 yr Administrators Will this inane insanity lessen or intensify on the release date of "The New Flightsim" (Official name). ✈️ Charlie AronAVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-RegistrarJust going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer.

Man it's so confusing to be a human sometimes!

I think you failed to catch the sarcasm there, buddy. Also, as pointed out, Aerofly wasn't even close to being released in 2020, so I think I'm getting closer to why these abbreviations confuse certain people 🙂 [MSI MPG X870E Carbon | 9800X3D (PBO +200Mhz / -20 Offset) | Corsair 64GB DDR5 (Custom Timings) | RTX 4090 Founders Edition (Undervolted) | WD SNX 850X 4TB + 4TB | Antec Flux Pro]
August 15, 20205 yr Not sure why this is so controversial. Adding the year of release to a media property that shares a name with other properties in the same format or even different formats isn't new or controversial. Doom (2016), Airport films, Dune (2020 film). If you go the Wikipedia page of MSFS2020 what do you see? *gasp* https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Flight_Simulator_(2020_video_game). Noooo! So 2020 AND they have the gall of calling it a video game! Inconceivable. 4790K @4.9GHz, 32GB DDR3, 1080Ti, W10-64bit

August 15, 20205 yr Author Aerofly FS 2020 packs in more features, improvements, and detail than ever before in the series with now over 200 airports from all over California, Nevada, Utah and Colorado to land at and with over 300,000 square miles to fly over you will always find something new. Sethos, it has been released! Robin "Onward & Upward" ... To the Stars, & Beyond...

How ironic you lecture us on nomenclature then use MSFS, when the acronym is MFS for the new sim, as used by the developers. Also, something about changing stuck records...
