Mindful of this, I logged in as the Baby Jezus, who as we know never lies, so that should circumvent that potential pitfall.

Just wait until you notice that you are now restricted to use Kiribati aircraft registrations in the sim. 😋

Hoping to come across an old abandoned P-40 I can get going.

I hope all of you who have travelled to Kiribati are observing the quarantine regulations on arrival and when you return to your home country. We don't want any virus infections in MFS.

All my ATC is like:

"BA 223, Kam na bane ni Mauri. E rab'a te kaitiboo 43 miles. Bon kangae ngkami raoi 3000ft tekeraoi te mwananga 05, Taiaoka karaurau riki 220."

Guys? WHAT DO I DO??

P.S. Microsoft, btw I'm not saying that I don't know what that means or anything.

That would actually be a great April fools joke from Asobo for next year. 😅

I can confirm that it is the same version as the streamers had during the weekend. I am also having one of the bugs I saw in a few of the streams. 

When connecting a game pad during flight, I got a CTD. I wanted to try the Xbox controller to control the drone camera.

I have not had any problems after it was connected and I restarted the sim.

 

Hopefully a fix is included in one of the first patches.

You will be able to see the shallow water imagery from Bing. Those nice views of turquoise water with white sand, reefs etc.

Got it, thanks. So I need to compare to footage of some older version it seems. That one shot sure looks good tho.

Lottsa people must have just moved to Kiribati.......

There are enough planes right now over some airports, its like that saucer arrival scene from close Encounters...........

 

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

I got a CTD connecting a Xbox controller as well because I didn’t have a lot of time to set up my gladiator. It worked fine upon restart though.

That says "Kiribati Tower ... Where in Kiribati is the color ae unable? You're a real spit fire!"

I'm guessing that you actually do speak the language, but you're word not allowed as a newt at the moment.

So. Here's my experience...

The pre-order Premium Deluxe Version would not trigger a D/L. So, I changed my timezone to Kiribata, MSFS then started from the Windows menu, but quickly stopped and asked for the disk, so I paid a quid for a game pass, then I could get the Standard version to begin downloading, that got about half downloaded, then it freaked out, asked me to start choosing settings and options, then it crashed to desktop. When I cranked it up again, it crashed again, then it appeared to have changed its mind and judging by the size of what is downloaded and what is left to download now and is coming, I think it is downloading the full Premium Deluxe Version now. About 100Gb downloaded, about 30Gb to go at present.

In the meantime @Chock if fully fluent in Kiribatanese, knows all of the local customs and it applying to be a member of the local tribal council.

Doing anything with the USB ports seems to be causing a CTD. I ejected my external drive and the launcher (while downloading) just freezed and then shut down.

That's code. You get the code book from the Shape-Shifting Lizard People when you join the Illuminati
