I'm editing my review but the overall point will still be the same.

I've been enjoying flight simulation as a hobby for well over 20 years now and this has been the worst experience I've had so far, here's a small list of issues I've found in the 4ish hours of actual flight time I have (don't let the 30+ hours fool you, 90% of that has been spent waiting for the game to actually load)

-missing asset textures

-bad AI voices/dialogue - seems scripts were all AI generated with 0 human editing

-missions are beyond repetitive

-Pilot/pax models clipping and in wrong spots (pilot sitting in middle of H225, etc)

-opens hundreds of audio channels

-shadows are blocky and unrealistic

-career bugs that causes no payout for completed missions and potentially causes loss of all career progression

-helicopter handling feels horrible, less realistic than GTA

-human models are horrible, far worse than 2020

-control set up is completely unintuitive and unnecessarily frustrating

-game stutters/frame loss

-PAPI/runway lights are still showing up in the middle of runways and taxiways

-grass and other environmental assets clipping through planes

-every ramp is congested to the point of being extremely unrealistic

-career missions using incapable equipment (C172 for a mission that requires you to maintain 80kts at 13000 ft)

-no way to physically download planes, etc - have also heard that freeware wont be a thing due to all assets being encrypted


Don't waste your money

still VERY broken and unplayable

Very laid back, looks good and is enjoyable with friends

Probably the easiest flight sim to just mp into.
