July 13, 200619 yr Just look at that.... http://www.projectmagenta.com/video/SharedSkies.wmv38mb:(brds
July 13, 200619 yr Funny & "cute". But didn't see anything that screamed "I'm FSX!!!"(not counting ending title, which you could slap on anything).So quit teasing us with the 'fake' FSX videos! :(

July 13, 200619 yr Could see how you might say that. There are 2 main reasons why I say no.1st Autogen looks FS9(1a. ground textures too). 2nd, stunt planes in multiplayer almost looked 'layered' onto the video.Sure Frankfort's airport had service vehicles moving about (FSX feature), but its not like there aren't addons of Frankfort out there for FS9.

July 14, 200619 yr Not disapointed at all. Mostly cause this isn't an official Microsoft video. So I'm treating it as such. Meaning not official and homemade and no representation of what the final product might hold. ;) Either way, each that passes we get a day closer to see the final product(barring any delays). :)
July 14, 200619 yr My first impressions were: FSX has turned into a game indeed :(This was inevitable, but I hope that all the flying lessons have not been replaced by the 'missions' and multiplayer. Sure, I'll get FSX, but I'll pay closer attention to X-Plane as well.Pat

Any "official video" would be hosted at http://fsinsider.com or another MS website... not Project Magenta...It was cute, it was funny, but I sincerely doubt "official" in any meaningful sense.BTW, the "Redmond Conference" doesn't start until tomorrow...

July 14, 200619 yr I think it IS new FSX! Ground on final approach looks good from the far distance. Aerobatic rolls look funny...Janda, thanks for the find!

July 14, 200619 yr Thanks Janda...No doubt in my mind that it is from MS... it is their style all the way & the humor is great. MS is just trying to make a point about a shared envronment not trying to show off all the new features. :)I flew probably 20 flights total in FSX at IFC Denver. It doesn't look a lot different from FS04 but what differences that are there are stunning. And the best news is that it will get even better once Vista & DX10 are available... well once we can afford the hardware to make use of it that is. :-lol
July 14, 200619 yr Its a lousy annoying video....and a little twisted (which I liked)However, it only tells me, that multiple people can use it like in "GROUPWARE"...1. It could be a VATSIM like technology that comes default. We may not need any addons.2. Now It looks like multiple people are able to see other airplane models.. Thats a good thing.Thats all I got out of it.Who they target to sell this.. is irrelevant to me. They could have had this entire video and commercials made for this in Chinese for all I care.Manny Manny Beta tester for SIMStarter
