Fenice_1965, you honestly think that if there is no online activity there is no one using the game?

Honestly not. I was thinking from the perspective that is closer to me (even if I've been playing simulators offline for more than 20 years, actually I'm more involved in online activity).
BTW online activity can be one of the indicators that can be considered in the judgement about vitality in a game thinked to be used also online.

So...I'm operating from the perspective of the server host. It significantly cuts my potential player base if I want to do an interesting scenario but one that features only certain aircraft and if I choose to do something interesting but not available to the base players then I can either choose to restrict those players (not something I want to do) or I can choose to not run the scenario (also not something I want to do). So in some ways it's a loose loose scenario.
The more I read at the new forum, I suspect they will have some sort of hybrid model. If there are enough aircraft in the base package then there may be enough breadth to do at least some interesting setups. But it will change the way that I approach online scenarios. Guaranteed.
