I agree these are good times, and the potential for excellence is on the horizon.

I just hope this community and the MSFS development team don't get too caught up in the "in it for the long haul, so be patient" theme. The reason being is, X-Plane & P3D have been in it for the long haul too, and we are still extremely lacking in both of them. 

I say lets get the lead out now - not wait for ANOTHER 10 years!

Yes do it right, but aim for NOW...do what it takes...we have waited LONG enough!

Chill out man, flipping heck.

I wonder how they and MS connected on this project specifically.

Asobo showed Microsoft what they could do with Seattle, which got their attention.

It is in one of the videos.

When I bought it, it was on cassette tape.  I got a disk later and had fewer "stolen plane!" complaints.

I gave it all away when I sold my Apple II.

Microsoft travelled the world searching for the appropriate graphics engine for MSFS and they decided upon Asobo's in house engine. One of the main reasons of their collaboration.

Dont know if its really from him but i like this quote . . .

The Wright Brothers created the single greatest cultural force since the invention of writing. The airplane became the first World Wide Web, bringing people, languages, ideas, and values together.

It’s a pretty quote but it’s obviously a load of word not allowed

We've known for months that ASOBO was coding the new MSFS, but thanks for sharing this video. Great advertising for "FUEL" too! :biggrin:

I played fuel back in the day..... it was.... ok.

The technology of the huge open world was let down by the implementation, and in the end it was all pretty forgettable. 

Amazing Tech cant always rescue poor gameplay, and hopefully they've learned a lot since then.

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

On the other hand, great gameplay can rescue mediocre tech. Gameplay is everything.

I know that too since it was mentioned here.
I did not want to deprive you of the video because someone wanted to see tornadoes 😁
