Use Factorio as a good example (again). Believe it or not, it is possible to deliver a game finished when you release the 1.0

I was one of the very first third party developers for the ms FS franchise 26 years ago. I owned a flight sim company with 20+ designers. Our boxed software was among the first marketed globally by PC Aviator, and the predecessor to Just Flight. The company ran for seven years.
I think I have sufficient flight sim experience to offer a viable perspective that deserves thought.
If you donāt agree with a viewpoint, denigrating the one holding it is not the way to go.

I had problems with the Live Weather System too, but it worked more than it was broken!
Iām a developer for 18 years now, and Iām developing for Flight Sims since FSX. That been said, I know that the simulator has problems, but it is a game-changer, for sure!
Are you saying that MS and Asobo are not listening to us? Itās completely the opposite. When had you seen a Q&A session with Austin (from Laminar) or one of Lockheedās directors?
Iām not saying that MSFS is, not even far, a perfect or complete software. But We need to recognize that they are doing a good job. Using technologies never used before. Delivering things never seen on a sim before!
Be safe!

Iām sorry for you and I do feel your frustration. 100%
I suggest you vote with your credit card and spend your money elsewhere. I have nearly 50 flying hours (and counting) of enjoyment with this title.
The weather works well enough for meā¦ clouds, temperatures, windsā¦ they all seem real enough for a SIMULATOR.
And remember, itās a SIMULATOR and not a gameāas such, it is way more complex than a mere game.

I am closing this topic since it duplicates many others and is essentially not constructive
