February 28, 201412 yr Smashing shots! Great views - looking super amazing! Enjoy flying and happy landings.
February 28, 201412 yr I hope they develop this into full Flight Simulator (AI/ATC included, it's not enough to just say simulator as some with XPlane think visuals like this alone is enough).

February 28, 201412 yr I hope they develop this into full Flight Simulator (AI/ATC included, it's not enough to just say simulator as some with XPlane think visuals like this alone is enough). I disagree. It's true that today a general purpose flight simulator should have AI and ATC, but if you're saying that a software can't be defined a flight simulator unless it has AI/ATC (as your wording seems to imply), is ridicolous. According to this definition then, only FSX/P3D would be a flight simulator, not AeroflyFS, not SilentWings, not Condor Soaring, not Elite, not DCS... etc... etc... "Society has become so fake that the truth actually bothers people".
February 28, 201412 yr Moderator This engine has so much potential, it's a shame nobody has picked it up (or is funding it)

According to this definition then, only FSX/P3D would be a flight simulator, not AeroflyFS, not SilentWings, not Condor Soaring, not Elite, not DCS... etc... etc... I guess we can add MS FLIGHT to that list as well. I've said this before that it's not just enough to simulate flight at this point when we have options that give you the whole environment. People can't come down on FLIGHT for lacking key features yet dismiss XPlane. Some things raise the bar for the good. Falcon 3.0 and 4.0 released back in the 90's saw that they needed interaction with ATC and Wingmen to fully simulate the air combat and the F16's true environment. What followed that was EF2000, Total Air War, and the Janes series. Flight Simulator introduced VC's and now it's the standard. You couldn't pay most to go back to 2D panels. I've never installed combat aircraft in FS because flying around without the ability to use all the avioncs and weapons is sinceless. If we didn't have fully thought out options I might have concidered it. A big part of how an airliner's avionics layout is designed is to be used with things like air routes, GPS, ATC, aircraft avoidance, weather picture around the aircraft, etc. Just jumping in flying with no clearance for takeoff, empty skies, static weather is not the environment a modern airliner cockpit was built to operate in. Using it in such a dead world is missing allot in truely understanding the capabilites of these birds. You would be using a 757 in much the same way you operate a Cessna 172. We all love the various options out there and to each his own but when calling something a serious simulator the bar has been raised both in the combat world and the GA world. Is Aerofly FS a serious simulator at this point, 'NO' when one can land on water with conventional landing gear among other things I've mentioned. Do I like Aerofly FS, yes but just like Flight it's not a full featured desktop simulator. XPlane has amazing graphics with the right add-ons and great things can be done with FDE modeling but it's not on the level of P3D/FSX or FS9 because it lacks the ability to simulate the living world that gives an interested aviation enthusiest the complete picture of what's going on in the skies outside of the plane takes off, flies around, lands... Truth be told it's not that simple with general aviation either.

February 28, 201412 yr Something Different...Love it! 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
March 1, 201412 yr Not to dig up that whole God awful thing again, but to be fair with FLIGHT, it was FS11 in development before it was kidnaped, raped, and left for dead. OnT; Does the Snow Speeder come with RNAV/WAAS and updatable FMS? I hope they develop this into full Flight Simulator Well in another thread, the Outerra gang had posted (on their forums, reported here) that very thing.
