Microsoft Flight Sim 2020

Von Due · 08-05-20, 11:32 AM

Any of you guys keeping an eye on the upcoming MSFS2020? What are your thoughts on it so far?

I'm very much on the fence, I must admit. First I would need a beast of a computer to run this monster but that could be worked out. Second and equally important: It's just entered beta (or so I read) and there are still bugs and glitches to be fixed. I will not pay premium money for the Daggerfall of Flight sims if that's what is finally shipped. No doubt they are working on it but until it's proven to be stable, to run smooth on various hardware I am not in the market for it, unless they drop a semi working sim for no more than a penny.

Third, and this is of VITAL importance: No deal until they include helicopters!

I already covered it.

I have checked it out and like was said here, No helicopters yet and none planned for 2 years. Typical Microsoft. Plus huge download.

There's at least two helicopters included with the anniversary update

There's two helicopters for the anniversary update and there's at least four or five heli's made by third party developers.
