The asset streaming requirements are insane- they recommend having a 150mbps connection for a smooth experience with 50mbps as a minimum. Microsoft says they only planned for 250k players at launch, which is stupid considering FS 2020 had over a million sales at launch...
✋ Hi, person here who bought 2020 but refuses to buy 2024 because they didn't deliver on half their promises for 2020, including that it would be the last sim they sold.
Maybe they were suprised this many people actually signed up for their next level bullshit. 🤷♂️
Yeah, well, they promised Windows 10 would be the "last Windows," too. We know how their track record goes on that.
I've had a very successful lifelong policy of never giving Microsoft any money for anything ever since I was knee high to a grasshopper gnawing on the keyboard of my first 286, and it's served me pretty damn well so far.
Iirc, they didn't. There was one person who didn't really have the authority to make such claims say something that could have been understood as win 10 is the last windows.
I hate to defend Microsoft, they're an awful company, but this just was never really true.
Your not wrong. I worked for the company, and we were told that it wasn't actually true like 6 months after launch. I had been communicating it for .o the to my clients.
"This is the last time, baby. I swear!"
Same. I'm still pissed that 2020 was left in the state it is in with tons of its own bugs and missing features that were promised. I remember talking to a friend and saying that MSFS2020 was a cool flight sim but still had the vibe of an early-access game at times... and then they drop an announcement for 2024.
Why hand out bug fixes for free when you can charge full price once more instead?
