Well I told them that integrating with 3rdparty addon makers would probably be the most important.I mean, I won't go to MS flight if it doens't have a PMDG 737, 747 etc, regardless of how good the graphics/features are. That and...usual stuff like better ATC etc.

One important is built for 64bit.

Even more important is that it runs on XP also.

Maybe but only XP 64 then

How many casual computer users have XP 64 vs. XP 32?

Things that I would like to see in flight are...- slopped runways. - more realistic weather system.- better designed default aircraft.- better atc which if you liked you can talk to.- no such thing like unexpected black screens, sim freezing etc.- better and more detailed airports.- finally, what everyone wants, better fps.Nathan Green

Doesn't matter, 32-bit should never be supported when creating new software today. Coding for 64-bit only will be so much more efficient

Honestly, does anyone fly the default planes anyway? Whats the point of making them better? Let the 3rd parties develop decent planes. MS should just work on better performance, textures, and ATC

Things that I would like to see in flight are... - slopped runways. - Yes- more realistic weather system. - Or get a decent addon- better designed default aircraft. - Who flys them anyway??- better atc which if you liked you can talk to. - or RC4/5- no such thing like unexpected black screens, sim freezing etc. - Happens with any software regardless- better and more detailed airports. - They cant model 30000 airports with 100% accuracy- finally, what everyone wants, better fps. - Yes, providing you are not running a 286!

Everyone uses the default planes when they are starting out. Microsoft isn't making Flight just for those currently using FSX, but a whole range of new users that will start with just the default aircraft, just as I did when starting out. If the aircraft or scenery is not good enough people will move on to another game without even thinking twice; it's not like Microsoft Flight will be the only game available.

For Flight I would like to see a steaming great mug of tea flying effortlessly across the Serengeti, followed by Masai tribesmen singing "cor blimey guvner my name is whistling Bob McGrew"This famous Masai song entreating the rains to fall upon the plains (not planes of course) and wash the hippos in times of drought is known as the "Grarbslegger of Transvaal " And is a wonderful Truly wonderfulHooratio.

+1 and e-mailing MS now with this.

Excellent JimThe wise Masai warriors no what is what when it comes to simming.You mark my words.cheers Andy

Indeed - Masai apprentices are taught to conjure tea

Great to finally see a sensible comment on the subject of default planes and scenery.

Except for those few good looking spots in the U.S.A and the rest off the virtual globe looking like a desert or even another deserted planet like it does look like in FSX; than you can shuffle Microsoft Flight where the light never shines.After the Fs9/ FsX transition,15 years flightsimming; a few good looking (photoshopped?) pictures will not impress me anymore.
