Cockpit or not, I'll buy.

 

 

 

ummm, they had Nav lights you know. And they have them exactly like that, on the top and bottom of the wing tips. I think you are the one that is out of touch.

 

Hi.. I said "Turn them off".. I didn't say "Remove them because they don't have them"

 

Nav lights on warbirds look as ridiculous as neon ground effects on muscle cars..

ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING / i9-9900k @ 4.7 all cores w/ NOCTUA NH-D15S / 2080ti / 32GB G.Skill 3200 RIPJAWS / 1TB Evo SSD / 500GB Evo SSD /  2x 3TB HDD / CORSAIR CRYSTAL 570X / IPSG 850W 80+ PLATINUM / Dual 4k Monitors 

i agree, it's a theme along with hawaii, no reason to panic. Im also assuming they are trying to maximize the profits out of these models. Once there are more capable and in demand planes available in the market, the sales for these cockpitless warbirds will bottom out.

 

And what other aircraft would be more appropriate to be without a cockpit? A vcless cessna is useless.

I already got a warbird, why buy another one?

I wouldnt download it even if its free...

Get on with it microsoft, or you´ll have a lot less users/players...

Any vcless plane is useless.

hello

You will all end up buying it anyway, just like the Zero

Ditto. Mods, can you set up a new smiley for us, 'no cockpit, no buy', will save us alot of typing!

 

LOL, to right, too funny!

Not I, don't have the Zero and won't have this on my HD if no VC. A matter of principle with me.

 

man, I REALLY hope it has a nice VC, will renew my interest (and faith) in Flight.

That is so true! Cockpits are a must!

Happy Flying,

er, because some people like choice? Because some people like the look and sound of them? Because many young customers can ONLY afford the inexpensive DLC?

Applying your logic one might question the need for ever owning more than one 'passenger jet' to fly...

Agreed !

 

but it sell better without one - it is cheaper to make it without one - so.............

Cockpitless or detailled, I'll have one of those....

 

Last night I tried some really fun aerobatics with the Zero... Whow! Tell me the FM in FLIGHT isn't really a very tunned up version of what we had in FSX and even fs9... It's been a longtime since I last played CFS2, but I believe that FLIGHT's FM is a lot closer to what we had there than either fs9 or fsx...

Nope, I won't buy anything for a flight sim without a cockpit, and that is certainly not because it is a warplane either. I bought JF's Mitsubishi A6M a couple of days ago, and pre-ordered their Lightning F6, and have most of A2A's warplanes too, including their P-40.

 

I've bought all the other stuff for Flight apart from those cockpitless affairs. The Maule and the RV, and the Island scenery extensions were all worthy efforts; putting a taildragger without a cockpit into Flight turns it into Hello Kitty Island Flying Game, when it really does have the potential to be so much more than that, but if people buy into the no cockpit concept, they will only have themselves to blame if it continues to slip downhill.

 

No cockpit, no sale.

Speaking of A2A... If only they started supporting BoB again.... Great sim, unfortunately, trashed long ago together with all of my flight simulation stuff :-(

 

A2A's warplanes too

Bummer. I won't buy planes without a VC and I won't buy warplanes, so... I will have to wait yet another month before I can add something to my hangar... well, if the next plane is NOT a warbird and has a VC.

 

I feel left behind in the cold... I expected lots of DLC after the initial release but I have been waiting for two months in vain now... I don't see a sign of Alaska yet, so it will be thee months after the release before I MAYBE will be able to buy some new DLC. That sucks big time... Instead of an online store filled with goodies, new ones every week (which I was hoping for) I MAYBE get one DLC in three months.

 

MS is making it very hard for me to keep on promoting Flight...

I see that from a positive perspective... It's certainly going to be a complex and detailled add-on, so, better wait for them to release it as bug-free as possible, than get something like most add-ons I used to get to other simulators and then go through the long and painful process of patching instead of using....

 

Regarding the cockpitless planes, it's the pills most certainly, but I am loving it and I seriously believe that they make part of their roadmap, and I do believe it's not how many cockpitless DLCs we buy that will affect the availability of detailled aircraft...

 

I support cockpitless DLCs because they are fun to fly, their FMs are far from being crap, and I believe I am suporting the future of FLIGHT that way, and really want it to be VERY BRIGHT!!!!
