The gameplay has received significant criticism for being limited and repetitive, with many players finding it boring after just a few hours. While the mechanics are noted to be realistic, the lack of diverse roles and features, such as the absence of tower or approach gameplay, has left users feeling that the game is unplayable and not worth its price. Overall, the game seems to prioritize monetization over customer satisfaction, leading to widespread disappointment among players.
- “The mechanics of this simulator are pretty spot on; it's more realistic and much less 'gamey' than others I have used.”
- “Pros: promising mechanics, aircraft behave more or less as they should when commanded.”
- “Then I looked at some of the gameplay on YouTube and decided to give it a go.”
- “Complete waste of money, the game is 'unplayable' in the current state - by which I mean that the game doesn't offer almost any gameplay at all.”
- “Only the ground controller role is simulated (there's no tower, approach, or departure gameplay).”
- “At this point, definitely not happy with it being 29.99; I would have been happier with the quality of gameplay to buy it for 19.99.”
