@jeffrey_wyman You will even need a lifter (pedals), yoke (steering wheel equivalent in aeronautics) and some other gaz sticks to maintain the realism 😅
I have been looking forward to this game for years. The level of detail is amazing! I can't wait to start exploring the world in this game. It's like the greatest version of poking around on Google Maps.
@jakecrump Bing* maps. This might be the most elaborate Bing marketing ever! (and that's saying something)
Wow! It's brilliant. Great job! I can't wait when I try it 🖤
Congratulations!
Being an avid Linux Mint user that's probably the only thing that might convince me to buy a spare machine with Windows 10 on it....cmon ...can you believe it? Flight Sim is Baaaaaack...! I had a dream ... a dream that MS would not turn us down and do some justice about that flight sim...that dream is so close to come true.....I am flying baby..! Microsoft Flight Simulator
@daniele_pais I highly recommend getting an account with shadow.tech, I use this now rather then my high end PC because it works well and I can even using my tablet to play high end games like this no problem. #notASponsor
@matt_apperson whats latency like? I assume 4k streaming works pretty well these days, but latency for any twitch gaming would maybe be frustrating?
@matt_apperson That's interesting...so you can actually use your tablet ... Does it have to be a windows tablet or it can be android?
So excited to see this news! I started playing this back in the Late 80's when it first came out. Many probably don't know this fact about MS Flight Simulator, but in the early days of the PC market - this game was always shown at tech conferences on clone PC's (Non IBM PC's) to demonstrate compatibility. If you could run this game on a PC clone you could guarantee compatibility with the IBM AT's. Prior to using this, Frogger was used for the same purpose. I guess it is time to get an Xbox - I assume this won't run on my Mac :(
This is sooooooo good. I used to play with my son when he was 5 or 6, can't remember. I was pilot and he would be my co-pilot. He would do stuff like open the landing gear, etc. We had such a good time playing together. Now 15 years later, I can't wait to get my hands on this.
