With all the arguments going on, I think we should have a summary of the the situation.
-
The “Press any key” is useless and easy to fix (quote from Asobo)
-
Some people hate it, some people are OK with it.
-
For everyone the screen is is your face every time to start the sim (unless you use a workaround, like Asobo’s developers do). A constant reminder of something which was promised but not yet delivered.
-
On the scale of importance, it is not very high. On the scale of number of people affected, it is top. Which side of the argument you are on depends on how much weight you give to each of these.
-
It is not a question of fix this, or fix the A320neo. It could be fixed in a tea break, while the neo will not be fully fixed for months.
-
There are workarounds (eg [MOD] Start FS without waiting for "Press Any Key" screen, the one I am using).
So it no longer affects me, other than underlining the fact that enthusistic users can achieve results quicker than Asobo. And therein, I believe, lies the future of FS2020.
