OH-NO I want a flight sim—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 97.122.164.221 (talkcontribs)

FSX fanatic[edit]

Dang it! I've played for three years and I've got 300 dollars worth of addons. Anhydrobiosis (talk) 16:51, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry, FSX isn't going away. In fact, this will probably make it a better game, because the fans will go into overdrive making mods and such. And Microsoft isn't dropping support for FSX, it's just put the next FS game on indefinite hold, until it thinks it can make more money on the franchise. My personal guess is 4 or 5 years.

Open the Sourcecode[edit]

Is there a petition circulating to encourage Microsoft to Open Source the Flight Simulator? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.93.195.162 (talk) 19:39, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not AFAIK. Want to start one? I'd sign. -- 97.124.7.61 15:08, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NOOOOO![edit]
