MSFS 2020 was already on Xbox, casual gamers will be word not allowed off too ...

well casual gamers don't have much content and showing the missions going to bring a lot of new players.  is like truck simulator is something that was missing in msfs 20

that trailer is focus on casual gamers no sim players, is show on the biggest videogame conference of the year,  a flight simulator trailer which is a big niche, so the trailers focus on bring new players  i pretty sure latter they release other trailers more focus on sim improves.

and the Microsoft conference yesterday was the best by far in all summer fest conferences

Aye and it caused the flight simulator community uncertainty, so it failed in its objective. Its not the casual simmers (of which I am one to a degree) that will keep the longevity of this title going, its the die hards, they are the guys who build their world by spending money on it.

If that's one of the worst pieces of marketing you've ever seen you must watch very little online. So hyperbolic. 

Nothing hyperbolic about it. It was poor communication.

It's been received incredibly well outside the hardcore flight sim bubble. It's a big world out there and we're not alone in it, fellow.

By non customers ... but casual gammers that already bought MSFS 2020 ?

Nobody is saying the product is bad, the thing is the commercial strategy, community fragmentation ...

The poor communication over multiple areas since release reminds me of the line from Cool Hand Luke (and Guns 'N Roses!);

“What we’ve got here is failure to communicate.”

This is no different from when MS2020 was announced

 90% of my add-ons I've purchased outside of the MSFS market place either direct from the developer or the usual platforms. What will happen with those? Will MSFS 2024 allow the easy transfer/installation into the community folder?

That is my question too. I use PSXT and it only reads airports that are not encrypted.

But that was an entirely different situation to what we've got now, back then it was a brand new product whereby a single video projecting hype was perfectly acceptable. This time a video with no backup statement is appalling, simple as.

The Q&A says most addons should still work. So imagine you’ll be able to copy and paste

Or just basic standards requesting some common sense when it was required 😉
