Game Discussions Microsoft Flight Simulator

Actual real weather injected real time in the game lol. That is insane! I really hope this has some kind of tutorial man :D

That's nothing new though, I've had that for many years in FSX and P3D with Active Sky. Having it built into the core sim is very slick though, I won't need to buy an addon any more!

They seem to plan a lot more though, real movement data from ship traffic for instance. If ED will ever have atmospheric landings, it will face an extremely high yardstick...


Hehe, if Elite ever has atmospheric landings that yardstick would be as unfairly tough as MS Flight Simulator’s yardstick would be if it ever considered to have the same level of detail across the whole galaxy including all kinds of alien atmospheres with their individual chemical mix and composition, gas giants or brown dwarves...

I've just watched a longer alpha footage in German and was totally blown away. It's quite a while were I had a flight simulator, must be still at Atari times, but this one is a must have, there is no escape! The simulation aspects are just stunning (but see yourself if you understand German):

This is a game where i will consider purchasing an 8K vr helmet to complement my HOTAS and rudder pedals.
 
I only imagined my wife's face when presenting the idea of building a 10m long RC Concorde. :)
I suspect my wife would suggest..."Is this another weird old person phase...Like when you shot the TV with your shotgun because it wouldn't tune in to channel 4?"

At least I had the forethought to take the TV outside first...since I didn't want to be hoovering all the broken bits up from the sitting room :rolleyes:
