It’s a very poor show. Almost bait and switch compared to what they’ve been showcasing for months.I think it’s perfectly reasonable to request a refund for a product that is clearly not up to scratch and probably won’t be for months, if 2020s SU fiascos are anything to go by. It was SU10 before I came back from XPlane.
Microsoft are used to building high volume, high performance distributed systems and operating them well. They should be asking serious questions as to how this failed so badly. We call it “thundering herd” in software design when everyone comes at once. You design around that problem even if it’s a temporary state until dropping into business as usual. It has me worried as just how much of this game has extreme dependencies on streaming and there’s evidence that shows the fallback option is akin to FSX in terms of fidelity when things don’t go well.
Not good
