The use is that all those revolutionary screenshots are what i am looking at in FS9 daily. But yes, what's the use right? The areas they are concentrating on? missions for those who don't know how to fly. lovely.They have also hinted of better weather so i am going to reserve judgement on that until they show it to us. Maybe at E3 more details will surface. though so far, revolutionary not found, neither in vision nor paper. but what's the use. you said it mate.
