You support companies that release flawed products?

If my choice is between a flawed product (that is actively being worked on to reduce and/or eliminate those flaws while adding content) and no product at all... Yeah. I do. 

 

I'd rather have MSFS in its current state than still be screwing around on FS4.  And I mention FS4 because people have been howling their indignation about flight sims and their deficiencies, along with deficiencies both real and imaginary of every other computer game ever produced, for decades. If I decided to get on the "boycott it" bandwagon for every video game that people took to the internet to complain about, I'd still be playing Pacman on my Atari 2600... Except wait, no, people whined about that one too back in the day, because it wasn't just like the arcade version.

ASOBO  is not the greatest but the luckiest to have teamed up with Microsoft on MSFS.

Asobo is good at what they do.  They maybe think flight sim is just a game so users can play something else while the bugs get sorted instead of beta testing. Not the greatest but a good newcomer.

Not sure that Microsoft is free of blame either although I used to have a lot of respect for that company over the last couple of years they have taken a few turns I am not so sure of.

MS are far from perfect.  In fact, MS is a bit like democracies in some ways, not perfect but definitely the best choice currently on offer. 

So ... let's put it this way - imagine if Apple had done the deal with Asobo and MSFS was actually called the AppleOSFS and was only available on the iTunes store ....

Oh come on u have to be kidding!!!! How many years have u been flying???? I really have to laugh about this thread!!!!  Since update 7really messed things up.  Besides a 30gb update when the sim or game what ever u want to call it is over a year old.  

Enough said
