Microsoft se take musi drzet pri zdi s ohledem na svetovou financni krizi a jednou z obeti ruseni mnoha pracovnich mist je i washingtonsky tym ACES, ktery ma na svedomi celou serii Flight Simulatoru. Ve sprave seriozniho serveru Gamasutra se pise, ze tym byl silne postizen soucasnym propousteni a ze to pravdepodobne znamena konec serie.
Preci jen, pro Microsoft v krizi je mnohem zajimavejsi prodat 10 milionu akcni hry Gears Of War, nez podstatne mensi cislo Flight Simulatoru. Nechci syckovat, ale po konzultaci s par lidmi se jako clovek z herni branze obavam, ze na FS 11 si pockame mnohem dele, nez si kdo predstavoval. Spis bych rekl, ze se ho nedockame.
"Redmond, Washington-based ACES Studio, the Microsoft-owned internal group behind the venerable Microsoft Flight Simulator series, has been heavily affected by Microsoft's ongoing job cuts.
Development sources have told Gamasutra that a large portion of the dev house's staff has been let go - with multiple reports indicating that the entire Flight Simulator team has been axed."
