Turns out that a massive Earth-scale game that requires streaming of gigabytes worth of data every play session for each user and has next to no local storage is a really awful idea.
X-plane 12 is looking better and better.
This is one of the most dumbest Parts of this game, everyone's complaint of the last iteration was the massive download times, and the inefficiencies in the game causing it to lag even on high end systems. And their solution to that was to increase the specs that it's required to run the game and require a high speed internet on top of that? They more or less made it so anyone running satellite internet can't buy their game and anyone that lives in like 70% of the US that still has absolute dog shit internet speeds couldn't even imagine playing it. My mom still has a 5/5 mbit/s, that's the fastest anyone offers in her area, even downloading the previous game took ages there's no way in hell I'm going to recommend her buying this game
