Luckily a few of the professional reviewers have shown some intelligence and have delayed their reviews until the game is patched.

The only people responsible for driving people away from this game (if that happens) are the same people who made the ill judged decision to release this game in the condition that it is in at the moment.
Sure there are fun things about it, no doubt about that, but there are too many things wrong with it for the average gamer to just pick it up and say wow I must recommend this to my friends.
It's almost as if UBI or MG or 1C or whoever is responsible for this release said to themselves lets just release it anyway, we know the flight sim community trust us to patch the game to standards they expect.
Well that's all very well for the established community, but if they think that will bring new players into the genre then forget it.
People are entitled to review a game how they see it, ultimately the reviews wont lie, it's as simple as that.
p.s, personally I would rate this game at the moment a 6.5, after the next few patches it could well go up to 8 or 9, lets hope it does.
