Honestly? Truthful answer. I am in the process of Redownloading p3d. Yes I know it will be a shock to my system after using MSFS since the day it launched, but at least as I gradually add all my old Scenery addons, I will be able to have a back up that I can fly when situations like today’s downtime happen.
Later edit:- glad to see MSFS is back up. I will spend time with it again tomorrow. I plan on it continuing as my main sim. However, it was great to fly my newly re-installed P3d for the first time in 14 months. The beloved Just Flight Chipmunk had been sorely missed, and using ORBX true earth, I had the Scottish highlands close to msfs standards.
But here is what hit me. I was enjoying it offline. And if those core products were updated tomorrow, I could elect not to update and still enjoy the experience unaffected. Msfs has its advantages, but in this respect they have lost something critical in terms of user confidence… it is called stability.
