    Gotta feel sorry for the devs; it’s not enough that they give up their free time at unsociable hours to face what they know will be (at least some) uncomfortable questions on a global platform in thei

    Disagree. Working in global business comms I’ve heard it said many times by native English speakers that French colleagues are unenthusiastic. Also Japanese, Scandinavian, Indian etc. etc. etc. Sure,

Since they're a private company they don't need to publicly reveal their revenue numbers for shareholders, so hard to say.

Just like I thought just keep backtracking the finances of the powerful leaders that some here are quickly to defend see you in another 3 years when or if they announce MSFS 2028 and it is going to happen with Asobo on board. Asobo do not have to share their books they are set $$$ as long as MS wants them there.

What I have learned in life is that there are people you will never be able to satisfy. Whatever Joerg, Seb or Martial do or say, it's never enough because they forgot to mention this or that or they dared to postpone a fix or something else. From my C-64 times until now, I cannot remember a single game development team which was or is so focused on improving their product as Microsoft and Asobo. I don't want to mention the arrogant way some write about the non-native English speakers.

Sometimes I have to admit to myself:

Well I retract my statement then but It doesn't mean the fact that Asobo are not making millions off of MSFS partnership though or is that false too. These guys are not going broke anytime soon.

My point was outside of the execs at the largest game companies or maybe the single/tiny dev groups with a runaway hit, people do not make millions in the video game industry, and most could make more in the corporate world. The millions that MSFS brings in also goes to the dozens of other partners that contribute to the game, which far exceeds the number of partners that most games require. Not to mention the chunk that goes into Microsoft's pocket!

That is delusional.  Of course some do.  The video game industry IS corporate...very big corporate.

Completely dodged it. It kept showing up in the chat over and over but nope.. not a word about that topic.

Jorg has already said that they're not going to get into adding features until the sim's bugs are put under control.

Do you own research and you'll see there's "lots" to improve.

Seriously, what's wrong with you? All you do is come to the MSFS forum to bash MSFS.  And that's my opinion only of MSFS (which is also consistent with the Navigraph survey results). 

I'm just the "anti-propaganda" minister here 😂 (I also have a teaching assignment here 😃). Further evidence ...

For someone like you who dislikes MSFS so much (you were continually bashing MSFS 2020 in the last several years while praising your "other" simulator), you sure spend a lot of time here in the MSFS forum 🤣

Oh ... you know ... you can be glad that I only post something here every few days/weeks. It was much worse in the XP forum for years. It was flooded with MSFS disciples practically every day (that's why some of them have the NoXP tag now).

That's just the problem with the nay-sayers. They only regurgitate predetermined beliefs, but don't do any research/testing themselves. Perhaps they also don't know exactly what/how to look for (?).

You spent the last several years bashing MSFS 2020 in this forum.  And after several years of bashing MSFS 2020, you bought a copy of MSFS 2024 so you could continue bashing MSFS 2024 here in this forum 🤣

Like there are legitimate users of MSFS 2020/2024, who want it to be better, and criticize it because they want it to be better.  I won't bring up names, but there has even been a long time XP user who was constantly in these MSFS forums at Avsim (and who I don't get along with), who also bashed MSFS 2020 in the last few years, but when MSFS 2024 came around, this particular XP user was asking other people how to get MSFS 2024 to work, and it looked like they bought MSFS 2024 to enjoy it (now I don't know if they still like MSFS 2024, but their comment was authentic as an actual user of MSFS 2024).

But I don't get that vibe from you.  The vibe I get is you dislike MSFS so much, it appears you bought a copy of MSFS 2024 just so you could write negative things about it. 

For those who don't believe me, go check @flying_carpet's post history since MSFS 2024 was released:

https://www.avsim.com/profile/503476-flying_carpet/content/page/3/?all_activity=1

Not a single comment about how to use MSFS 2024, or asking questions about MSFS 2024 because they are currently using MSFS 2024 (like a normal user of MSFS 2024 would), etc.  All your comments on MSFS 2024 since it has been released is just negative comments about it, and that is just abnormal.

Hahaha that is what that means?! Wow! 

Why is there a NoXP tag but no equivalent for other sims?

 

Feels like a double standard to me.

I find the XP forum to be a bit more tightly moderated compared to the MSFS one. Maybe that has something to do with it? Just a guess.

That would be R1. Which was enforced earlier than "NoXP" AFAIK.

That's why readers of this subforum unfortunately can't enjoy legendary mSparks predictions anymore.
