Don't buy anything in the Microsoft Flight Simulator marketplace! 

Hear! Hear!

Said it great.

Respectfully, I think you're giving too much credit to MS/Asobo and not enough to the third party developers. But I appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching!

It still shouldn't take six to eight freaking weeks from the time the update comes out' And why would a developer sabotage their own work with malware? Two weeks MAX.

@@mason19548 Development follows process, it doesn’t work well with randomness. There’ll be time set dedicated to review, and that probably actually is a standard 2 weeks for larger submissions tbh. And that time will not fluctuate. The catch though is there will be a limit to how many submissions can be reviewed per week in accordance with this established process, and so a backlog of submissions is naturally created. And no they won’t even spend a full 2 weeks on any one submission, but submissions/updates will be planned to be bundled together in groups for specific DLC release days. Keep in mind updates will require the same amount of attention and review as a new submission, but will still likely be favored in the pipeline. That backlog is obviously kept at a reasonable size that the devs are comfortable with maintaining. Asking them to decrease that to a constant 2 week window would mean adding more devs/QA, the daily revenue seen probably isn’t enough to justify increased man power. Even with submissions being constantly instantly revised and approved, because of the randomness in which updates are likely submitted in all times of the week, this will definitely add an extra week starting the Monday following the submission (3 weeks total) you need to add time for production to organize the submission/updates into the existing review pipeline for the following week. You don’t just jump onto something the moment it’s received 😂. Also, submissions would need approving the week prior to them even being released, probably by that Friday, so this would add an extra week. The 3-4 days during the following week building up to the Marketplace update would require separate build tests and extensive checks for their DLC system. (4 weeks total now) Naturally some weeks will have an unforeseen increase in submissions more than others, or there will also be holidays/time off, so there will always be a growing backlog despite the absolute best efforts to keep that down, so naturally that means the minimum expectation should be 5 weeks… depending on the amount of submissions, this will grow.

yep that’s why i’m buying 130$ worth of planes today

Microsoft call Microsoft refunded my guy for a car n let him keep it

Thanks for watching. Glad it was helpful!

In turkey some planes cost 2$, but in some countryes it costs 40$

Great point. Thanks for watching!

That's a fair point. A lot of products I've purchased for MSFS have had installers that do all the "magic" without managing folders. But not all do. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for your insight, and thank you for watching!

Thanks much. When I got back into MSFS (your fault), I started buying a bunch of things in the Marketplace too. Better late than never.

@@hochmaniac how is it my fault when i did nothing hm?

@@hochmaniac you forgot to mention that the MSFS marketplace aircraft are dumbed down to fit microsofts terms. for example, the f35 lightning II comes without weapons.

you must be loaded then. i cant even afford cheese.

Absolutely!

Its not about being scared, its about convenience. I do it for updates and reinstalls, just click a button versus storing files or downloading and extracting from alternate site. Some things I won't buy there because they aren't fully loaded such as the MIlviz F4U Corsair.

Can I do this if I’m playing solely on Xbox? If so, I’d love it..but I don’t think it’s possible…

Can't. Marketplace is the ONLY option for Xbox...

@@seaquenc3308 Not possible for us xbox players…. you are correct.

Ok I take this back. I thought about this, and I think community folder is better unless you ever wanna disable sceneries for fps

Sorry, you're a grade-A moron

@@hochmaniac crap

think so

That's an excellent point you're making and one that this ignorant RU-vidr fails to grasp.

I think you're underestimating the profitability of the game itself, but more importantly, as as consumer, you shouldn't have to accept second best. We should demand better. Looking holistically at the flight sim industry over the years, it's clear a healthy ecosystem is best for all involved, including Microsoft. It's developers that drive interest because they bring the add-ons that Microsoft simply wont/cant do on their own. Look no further than the PMDG 737 and Fenix A320 for exhibits A and B of that. Buying from the marketplace as a charity for Microsoft is doing yourself a great disservice. Thanks for watching!

Every day almost 400 thousand babies are born, 18 years later, 400 thousand 17 year olds turn into 18 year olds and learn how to buy simulators, fly planes, have sex...etc. probably 2 thousand of these babies will eventually buy msfs. Msfs ranges from 60$ to 120$. Probably about 500 of these 2 thousand have somewhat rich daddies that work at Microsoft or apple and love them enough to buy them the 120$ and the rest probably stick with the 60$ one cause ur dumb af if u buy the deluxe version, like bruh either go big or go home. Anyways that means that because 500x120 + 1500x60 = 150000$. Now I don’t know where I’m going with this but 150000$ is sure of a heck more than what I make in a day. Anyways I don’t anyone is gunna read this much less finish this but it’s like 12am and I got to catch a flight at 5 so ima go pass out on my coach now... Peace out ✌️

Well, good riddens! I think this sim is crap. I consider it a flight game.

I may be mistaken but here's a good starting point. Look in your content manager it should be listed even if not installed, you could very well have simply bought it but not had it installed if that's the case click the installation option and there ya go 😎

India Fox Echo are great

Bredok is a scammer. I only bought one of his planes the A380. While I love that plane and so far haven't seen any issues with it. Many many people have had issues with him

@@CAL1MBO yea he is

Agreed. Thanks for watching!

No

There's nothing more frustrating than when there's an update for a product you own and you have to wait weeks (or longer) for it to get to you.

I actually thought I was the only one. WE NEED ANSWERS

I would argue if you're at all serious about flight sim, an investment in a PC is worthwhile.

@@hochmaniac well… since I am a A330 Pilot, whatever you do, is only a game. And beside the add-ons, comparing the two is exactly the same. So costs matter. No need for that serious PC investment… just fulling your self.

@reddeadcodvidz182 It is amazing what a $299 xbox can do with these days! Flight sim 2020!!! Unbelievable!

@@Foxtrot_EWyep 👈🏼👌🏼‼️ and pair your x box x with a 75-80 inch television in 4 K 💪🏼 HELLO ‼️‼️‼️

You might have not installed it

Thanks for watching

Totally agree. Thanks for watching!

I'm sure with your credit card number and statements it's hard to lose your account. Would you think otherwise still?

Agreed!

It's a shame because I agree the marketplace is super easy. Thanks for watching!

Great point. Thanks for watching!

I still wouldn’t use the marketplace. Dreadful store
