Sim Update 8 Beta Users, Has it been worth it?

Well, you know what they say about assumptions

And if you read the forums, you’ll understand exactly why they don’t respond and get drawn into pointless and vitriolic debates with the (minority) of forum members who assume (use intended) they know better. They are on a hiding to nothing, and if I were them, I wouldn’t respond either.

And I doubt you ever will. The forum is for communication between forum members, not a place to enter into dialogue with Asobo developers. Here is the first sentence of the Welcome to the Forum post:

Hello everyone and welcome to the public community forums for Microsoft Flight Simulator! The forums are your one-stop shop to discussing all things MSFS with your fellow simmers.

You can read the rest here:

And yet the OP suggests the exact opposite?

Zendesk is for posting bug reports (with the exception of the beta sections when bug reports are requested through that means. It has been explained many times that zendesk is the way to raise bugs. Unfortunately, whilst many people do this, many more don’t, and would rather just vent on this forum…and then appear surprised when the issues they are interested in don’t get addressed

Back to assumptions again…

Yes, this would be a big improvement - also, by definition, older bugs have accumulated more votes, but perhaps now have less relevance

This would also make a lot of sense as, whilst the core is the same, there are differences that are apparent in the experience users have, options available etc

Pretty sure that’s what’s been driving all the fixes in SU8 beta
