Isn’t it a bit hypocritical to say no weapons allowed in FS2020, so people have to buy military aircraft outside the marketplace, but the carriers of “evil” are allowed, the planes themselves. It is like we are allowed to “open carry” but have to leave the bullets at home, lol. One might say it is not in Microsoft’s hands to forbid military stuff because they can’t control what mods we use but it was them who introduced the F-18 way back in FSX acceleration. I am all in for a pacifistic FS2020 so i think releasing a new version of “Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator” based upon FS2020 would have been the more lucrative decision, instead we get FS2024 no one was even hoping for. Well it is what it is i guess.
They want an E for everyone rating or whatever it is and this is how they think they have to be in order to achieve that rating.
Well that might be it even though the weapons are all just for show. Even if we could drop them there is no destruction. For that we have to use mods such as the H145 military version and even then its just smoking crater decals on the ground. It should still be E but what do i know.
No, not might be, it is be. This has been debated many times before, and confirmed by Microsoft.
Guns are bad, okay?
That they are, hence their existance.
We have a No Weapons policy based on the contracts we have with aircraft companies as well as keeping the E for Everyone rating. If you’d like to discuss this subject we ask that you do so on a non-Official channel. Thanks!
