Does Anybody READ Release Notes Anymore?

Featured Replies

Yes, I'm gonna rant for a moment.  Forgive me.

But there are continuing, repeating "This is Bad!!!" or "This is Broken!!!" or "The Panel Knobs Are Now Blue!!!" complaints threads about the SU5 update.  And many of them could have been avoided if the poster would have just read the Release Notes that are INCLUDED in the MSFS download area for the SU5.  

C'mon, people.  If you are gonna use a $100+ piece of software update, at least READ the darn Release Notes to see what has changed in it.  You'll save your fellow simmers a lot of time answering your questions that should have never BEEN a question in the first place.  Like, "Why do all the panel knobs have blue lights around them now???!!!". 

(Note:  It will also eliminate your need to overuse the Exclamation Point on your keyboard in your created thread post titles, too!!!).

Rant over.

I have absolutely no idea what to make of your reply.  I guess after almost 35 years of professional computer IT and flight simming on home computers, getting some people to take the time to read included Release Notes is about the same as trying to get them to RTFM.  Whatever.

Sir you don't understand: If I didn't complain, I'd never say anything!
