    No thanks. Bought 2020 back when MS said they wouldn’t release another flight sim and instead would run it like an online service.

    They also told me they would have multicrew working in 2020 among a whole host of other undelivered promises.

    Have fun, those of you who haven’t been burned yet.

      2020 is Microsoft Loading Simulator.

      Game is distributed through Steam, but doesn’t use the Steam update mechanism so every time I go to play I have to sit through a half hour of updates.

    I’m excited to try this. I am waiting for reviews of how it runs on Linux and a small discount before I pick it up.

      It’s already rated mostly negative, i’d give it a month or 3 before even contemplating buying it. Especially considering it’s between $90 and $250.

        Game has been out for an hour or two? Isn’t that mostly “I cannot download or load it because the servers are overloaded” frustration reviews?

        Anyway, always good to wait a little until the dust has settled.
