FS2006

[Guest ToMy Li]

Any news of FS2006 please...? Thx

[Guest allcott]

No, still too early for any formal announcements. But there was a recruiting message for the devteam posted on a forum recently - it was on Avsims' front page, so its reasonable to deduce work is in hand! Allcott

[Guest]

well, it's been a week since the last one...

[Guest R5D4]

are you sure - a whole week? I can exclusively reveal that fs2006 will have more eye candy and lower frame rates.

What's wrong with eye candy?RH

[Guest R5D4]

nothing is wrong with eye candy.

An announcement to this effect is expected on the 31st February! I have a contact inside Microsoft.Stelios

What's wrong with lower framerates? This been Microsoft's most consistent feature since Flight Simulators inception. RH

>nothing is wrong with eye candy.It's certainly the number one reason that I enjoy flight. And the closer a sim comes to duplicating the look of our planet, then all the better!L.Adamson

Rumours are that FS2006 will contain submarines. Also, and this again is a rumour, it seems FS2006 also contains F1 cars which can be driven on a circuit.Finally, but this is the Pro package, FS2006 features a licenced copy of Packman which can be played on the EADI of the included Fokker 777-A340.I'm realy looking forward to FS2006

Rumor is that ATC actually does what its supposed to, and planes don't stack up!! Oh yeah and they added more bridges... :-lol

MS ussually starts working on the next release before the actual version is even released. It also would be a bit late to start recruiting staff for FS2006 only now. This would indicate, that FS2006 would not be relased before 2007.Wolfgang
