It's the general audience that doesn't know about it, that needs to know what it is.
Are you not going to buy the game because we didn't get enough trailers showing off the simulation mode? If not, then your complaints don't have much of a point.
And people will ALWAYS be complaining on internet forums. That's basically all that ever happens on forums, especially videogame related ones. It doesn't mean anything. There isn't a single game or developer out there that hasn't been bitched at pointlessly a billion times on internet forums.
The hardcore flight sim niche isn't enough to support a successful game by itself, this is why there are so few flight sims out there. They need to market it to the general public.
The least we can do is have an attention span longer than the average 12 year old. If we're so sophisticated and elitist, we can at least wait a bit longer, can't we?

You absolutely right. For a game works, it must reach the curiosity of the players by showing them a fun and simple game. Because a lot of people like arcade mode (proof with HAWX and Ace Combat)
But I think a video on the simulation mode would also be profitable.
We are a about a twenty to speak regularly on the forum jeuxvideo.com Nobody complained that this game will be too hard. For against, many people remain hostile to the game because they will believe this game will be like HAWX or Blazing Angel.
If there are people on the forum and those who have posted a comment on the videos in jeuxvideo.com (72 comments in total on the last video), there is a roughly fifteen players who will not buy this game, because they claim that a simulation game will never exist, they believe they are dealing with a Blazing Angel 3.
I think 1 video could change all that. The best would be to make a video in two parts with gameplay of the arcade mode in the first 2 minutes, and gameplay of the simulation mode in the final minutes. So people who just discovered the game and who search arcade will see that there will be two modes in the game with the arcade mode. In the same time, it will convince the players that seeks the simulation and were not attracted by the game before.
