Waiting Therapy for FS2020 VR

Recommended Posts

I'm afraid we'lll still have quite a long way to go before we can enjoy a stable FS2020 sim, letalone a stable VR experience of it.

So what can one do in the meantime:

 

Tip 1. Enjoy what you have right now. it might be not so bad after all and given the current hype it can only dissapoint when it becomes reality. So keep cool.

Tip 2. There will be more and more sales/ discounts on products for your current sim. If you can bring up the discipline to wait longer until the initial storm has passed and a first major service pack will bring stability (say 2021 ?) you can benefit form this.

Tip 3. There are still hundreds and hundreds of airports you haven't flown into. You'll be surprised how many there are in your current sim.

Tip 4 .If you haven't already, switch from 2D monitor flying to VR in your current sim. By the time you have recovered from the wow factor you'll notice FS2020 is there (time flies when you're having fun) with or without VR.  

Tip 5. Do not watch any more YT videos with updates on FS2020 (this is a tough one...)

Tip 6. anyone ....?

Tip 6. Upgrade your Hardware (Yokes, throttles ect.) so when FS2020 hits you are prepaired for THE experience 😄 (my honeycomb alpha flight is allready underway!)

I ain't waiting.... I am just going to flying around VR VFR/IFR in Digital Combat Simulator instead. It looks amazing and has a great community. From what I understand the cockpits are fully functional for VR touch...you can aslo do cold and dark startups etc if you want. Check it out.

I'm happily consuming as much as I can about MSFS 2020, with the hope/expectation/dream that VR will be there someday.

I need to save up a bit before upgrading my computer and VR headset, so I'm trying to convince myself that the waiting is a good thing 😉
