Microsoft Flight

Hey All,

Excuse the the spelling never been good at it.
Ok So, Microsoft Flight.... Was looking forward to it. Finally an executable that looks at not only my Processor but my Vid card as well! Oppss hangon they looking to increase their profit margin. Of course.
Did it run well... of course it did. Would FSX.exe run well with a rewrite Of course it would. "Look out Copyright".

About time the general Public said "Hangon!" Stop wasting my Download quota. Or is that Hey "General Public" Stop feeding the Developers by conforming to advertising.
Oh hangon I'm gonna spin off into a rant.........

Anyone else notice the fact TVNZ have chucked another 2min worth of Adds into a Half Hr program? You should see the "Skip 30sec button on my remote" it's worn to hell.
It use to Be 5 min program 4min add....OMG now look at it. Remember when You paid a Television Licence "Fee"? Oh hangon thats on your vechicle registration now. Do you pay for Sky TV?
Sorry for the ranting.....

Microsoft Flight! No thanks.

Fill of bourbon...ignore my rant. Stayed away from NZFF because I think I annoyed someone!
Scary stuff "Whos got my IP addy"
Thank god Im not static!
Resetting Router. LOL

Don't worry SINZ , we have all come to the conclusion that 'FLIGHT' is for the kiddies , an arcade game with a wife ingame yelling at ya ... big developers ie:PMDG said its a joke and so did many others so you are in fine company with this one TWICE ... I'm the one with the bad lingo writing ... people print my posts and take them to work like a crossword puzzle to de-code it ... laugh.gif

You can be pretty sure that we are not seeing any more ads -- there's a limit imposed by the Standards Authority, and I don't think than any channel would choose not to use their quota, so we are seeing the maximum now and always have.

But there is a trend to change the add blocks to match the US, so we now see one short ad break at the beginning of a US show, and the extra time is spread over the other breaks.

I'm not too sure where this is heading, as TV advertising much be getting less and less effective, with a lot more viewers using some sort of PVR to skip the ads. No doubt they have something diabolical up their sleeves...

To me, Flight just seems like an arcade game for children.

I like the scenery upgrades though.
