August 17, 20205 yr lol, at the MSF forum there are some (ex)testers 'complaining' they miss their watermarks on the screen. They are even joking they'd pay $3,- to buy them as DLC. :) Always have fun --0-- Flight Sim Navigation

None of what you've seen on YT is from alpha/beta testers, it was from 'influencers' who were given a special copy to stream. The NDA prohibited sharing of any videos from the alpha or beta versions to which the testers had access. filbertflies.com | YouTube | Twitchi7 13700k, GeForce RTX 3080Ti, 32GB RAM
August 17, 20205 yr There was no alpha or beta for the new Flight Simulator. I know there wasn't, because if there were, I surely would have been invited...

August 17, 20205 yr Now that the work of assimilating the rest of the flight sim world is complete, the testers will return to the cube, enter their regeneration alcoves, and reconnect with the rest of the collective.

In this form of game development Alpha testers work for free and in the end do not even get a free copy of the release candidate? Way to go... “Work for free” hahahah More like “play the game a year early for free” and continue to ask for more while the rest of us sat here for a year in anticipation lol
