MSFS The view from my new apartment in Monaco

[andy1252 3,859]

The combination of the drone cam, an X-box controller, and this sort of scenery opens up some amazing levels of exploration. All shots in 4k, with ultra settings

I mean, even the reflections in the windows . . .

that rooftop is pretty impressive

Below is from the roof of the tower block in the previous pictures, looking back up at our apartment (the ones about a third of the way in from the left, on the hillside)

And the harbour from that roof - just look at the rendering of that concrete on the wall.

And as it is supposed to be a flight sim (<grin>), here's a plane! (Heading west from Monaco - plenty to explore along this coast)

"WOW!"  Most impressed...will be getting my controller with Xbox X!

[Victoroos 205]

Did they model it that well? 😮

Wow! Roam the entire world...with or without plane.

I've said elsewhere...this could be a platform for train and driving as well.

Or even taking a walk!

Meaning mostly ,you are what you are moving towards and focused on.

Doesnt seem like a hardcore (FSL) simulator at this point.

I vote we all fly down for the GP next year. Perhaps Andy will offer to put us up...🤪

Oh please! Of course it's not like a hardcore simulator being as it was just released with only default planes! Once PMDG and others arrive all will be well.

Those shots look truly amazing!

Of course not...it's got almost all default aircraft so far.  While they have a lot of brawn they lack brains.  Doesn't mean its not enjoyable.  I've had a ton of interesting flights.  You should try multiplayer with a friend....bush flying is my favorite.

Well done shots Andy - very creative!

I have to confess you had me fooled there for a while. Seeing the topic and clicking the link my first reaction was slight annoyance over this rich SOB flaunting his new flat in Monaco. Then I had a closer look at the picture and went "wait, what?! that's a screenshot!?"

🤣

Just incredible level of detail.

The thing that might hold this back for a while is that for all its technical prowess, once you hit street level (unlike something like outerra) you immediately run into the age old issue of roads running sideways across mountains, etc. which kind of goes against the whole vibe of a train simulator......

Or even a walking simulator.
