Keeps Crashing

There is a ton of bugs on this game. it feels like a beta version rather than a full release. Ive had passengers coming from the ground like ghosts. Airports under water and the plane floating, not intended this way. The game keeps crashing constantly. Cars passing thru the plane like they are ghosts. the diamond planes keeps increasing and decreasing the throtle constantly. This type of plane you have to focus more on the throtle than flying. There are other planes with the same issue. communicating with the atc sometimes it doesnt work and you get hit on the rate as a pilot for that. i have crashed many times due to bugs on planes and airports and my pilot rate gets hit negatively for that. I should have not bought this game. $200 and there are cheaper games working better than this one.

It's not ready, with lots of bugs

The game occasionally crashes out of nowhere during a normal flight.

Best Virtual Tourism on PS5

This game looks great and runs amazing on my PS5 slim! I bought it just to fly over areas of interest, but I ended up being sucked in by career mode and now I'm a bit obsessed with aviation! I'm so glad we have this on PS5. Just make sure you got good internet because the world is streamed in (uses more bandwidth but keeps the actual file size extremely low)

Time pit!!!

The view is breathtaking from a high enough elevation. At ground level you're at ps3 quality. If you have time to waste and want to do free flight then the simulator might be worth it. With that said, the glitches so much that career mode feels almost impossible. The fact that you spend half of your time doing nothing but going in a straight line would make you think that a simulator like this would be flawless. There is nothing like spending an hour on a flight to have your aircraft suddenly not work at the end. If you are willing to waste the money just understand that you will also be wasting a lot of time.

Constant Crashing

This game doesn't work yet and it's dangerous to use because it crashes the whole OS

It’s a mess

This game needs a ton of work to be serviceable. It’s enjoyable when it works but really taxes the system causing dozens system crashes. Even when playing the gameplay is bugged and will drive you nuts. I should have waited before preordering.

Beautiful game

Playing on PS5 Pro, bought the game yesterday and jumped right into Free Flight to fly past my work in Atlanta and then flew between 2 small airports near my hometown in PA. So cool. Can't wait for PSVR2 support to be added in a couple of months.
