Let’s be honest the whole sim is just awful from the aircraft the melted looking scenery the LOD, weather etc, I have the premium deluxe that has cost me I think £120. I’d actually be happy if Asobo and MS pulled the plug on this for a while stopped us playing the Sim and worked on getting us a decent working version of the sim. The latest patch has broken more than its fixed. Scrap it work on it and when ready let us all start playing and enjoying it.
OK, the OP’s post is hysterical… this isn’t Asobo. #blankstare
Could.not.agree.more.
Does MS manage the ultimate QA of what goes out the door? That’s the real issue here, the fact that stuff that was working just fine a few days ago is now broken. Bugs I can accept but to break previously functional stuff is rather annoying.
I’m not a gamer. I haven’t played a game in ~15 years, and the last one was Microsoft Flight Simulator. I’m used to it coming on CDs, and because they were published to CDs, they worked pretty well out of the box.
I guess software developers today feel more free to launch things in whatever state they can, knowing that it’s a work in progress.
Let’s blame Masobos then.
Anyway, who cares. Just fix it.
As a senior simulation and software developer, it is completely absurd to make this assertion one way or another, “Oh it’s not Asobo - it’s Microsoft!” (or the other way around).
Neither you nor I have any clue nor are privy to the decision making processes that were involved, the communication, the development practices, delineation of responsibility and decision making, etc.
It can easily go both ways.
Regardless it’s pointless to speculate nor to attribute blame at this point. Only thing that matters is addressing issues in as timely a manner as possible and tightening the QA process as it goes.
I don’t care whos to blame, they just released a patch that broke things more than it fix things.
just do the freakin job correctly I keep coming back to this forums everyday hoping for a fix. the bugs aren’t just minor things, some of them are major if not immersion braking, it’s a game braking bug.
the 787 which is a freakin premium aircraft is full of bugs, they charge for a unfinished product I don’t know about you but for most people outside the sim community that’s unacceptable I can understand the neo and 747 as it is just on the standard version, but the 787? no.
it’s not a fiasco, it got great potentiality but, it has tons of bugs, if every patch it comes out they broke 10 things and fix 1… we have a big problem…
i agree with you 100%
This is a shame, they can’t break things with the patch
Exactly ! You can almost read what’s going on during that pre launch video…
Of course, you need a little bit of life experience for that kind of reading… 
microsoft FORCED Asobo to release on the 18th. Apparently at Asobo no one was happy about it
Totally agree. We all bought the sim from Microsoft, not from Asobo.
You have a problem with an engine component in your Toyota, you don’t blame the component manufacturer. Toyota addresses the issues with the provider. Not the customer.
Agree and not agree also 
Issues was sent with description and reasons to change/solve them. They wasn’t solved and new issues are here
Pls all think,
can you imagine to sent technical problems directly to Microsoft and they sent them via some way to Asobo? What do you think what situtaion about this is now here?
While I agree that that the decision to release early was probably form Microsoft, the absolute disaster of a patch is not done by Microsoft but by the folks at Asobo.
They have absolutely zero quality control nor feel the need to be responsible enough and check their works.
People spent $120 of their hard earned money for this falsely marketed and overly hyped product. They have every right to get upset and demand better.
People don’t have the same standard for Microsoft and its partners as they have for Apple. If you pay for something any sensible human being would expect it work rather than make excuses for the multi billion dollar company. Of course, MS has a reputation for making trashy software so it sort of rubbed off on people lately. Whoever writes stuff likes this “Welcome, set your experience”…well, they are a bunch of people who have no idea on how to present a well-written piece of software, the same language can be seen in their Windows OS - shortly before it crashed on the Day 1 of release. These guys are so bloated that they have little or no quality control, a single decision takes months to execute. This simulator is so trashy that a prime airliner like 747 refuses to fly like a normal airplane, this speaks volumes of the competence of their partners, the developers, the testing team, the marketing team…all trash.
Sorry, hate to burst the blame bubble here but it’s the Asobo who tell the project managers/scrum managers at MS how long a task will take to fix and who ultimately creates the bug in the first place.
There’s also a significant difference between a developer and a programmer. A programmer will go through the bugs and fix them. A developer will fix each bug and make sure nothing is broken or tied to the underlying issue. Asobo might just be full of programmers.
Maybe agree,
maybe better will be check Asobo web about their free positions for job, maybe also good start to understand what they need…
Apple is on the same par with MS in terms of performance and crash rate, despite what their data suggests. Believe it or not, when your app crashes on an iPhone it’s usually because of Apple Swift language errors, not the app itself. Seriously I’ve had client instances when asking Swift if 1 + 1 = true and it reports false!
It got worse on mobile from iOS 11!
