May 19, 20233 yr I'm wondering if Russians can. They do know how to develop flight simulators after all. What about China? It seems that nowadays almost everything is Made in China. Why are there no addon's or competing flight simulators 'Made in China'? Edited May 19, 20233 yr by bofhlusr Hardware: i7-8700k, GTX 1070-ti, 32GB ram, NVMe/SSD drives with lots of free space.

It seems that nowadays almost everything is Made in China. Why are there no addon's or competing flight simulators 'Made in China'? Back in day of Il-2 Sturmovik I was contributing 1C and Oleg Maddox in developing the sim. Great beginning but quickly company was squirted by American partner and moved headquarters outside Russia. You couldn’t do business in Russia back then (corruption, bribery and etc) and now it’s beyond impossible. China is good for copying stuff and provide cheap labor. I have never a flight sim from them beyond Great Wall. Lol Now, tell me why do you think other countries don’t know how to make flight sims? I started as simmer many decades ago with ATP, I’ve gone through many iteration of MSFS. And now I’m flight instructor and airplane owner . MSFS is excellent flight sim and impressive work in progress . If you don’t understand this perhaps you need to look deeper Life time flight sim enthusiast, current airplane owner 172P (past C182F).

Lol Well well well, political bias comes in finally. let me be honest, why china don't develop any simulation type game because it's not a gold mine to dig and it's a very very small market not only in China but also in this world. nowadays mobile games make most money than any other platform. "honor of kings" , "PUBG" and "Genshin Impact" ( they are global top 3 mobile platform games and all developed in China) can make 400 millions usd as revenue only in month of March, 2023. and USA is the largest mobile platform game revenue in the world , it contributed 1.8 billion USD only in March. Let face it, MSFS is a game with a very small market, it doesn't make a lot of money.

Unfortunately, others will derail it with their political comments, and have already started as you can see. I hope you got your answer before the thread gets locked.

May 19, 20233 yr I actually want to do more flying in China. Some of the payware airports are excellent and its once of the most congested airspaces gong. I think there is a thriving Chinese community. Many airports on Flightsim.to Edited May 19, 20233 yr by ErichB

What abou MS withdrew from the market a year ago and casual financial transactions with CC have become almost impossible anyway. One of the best FSX and P3D aircraft dev, Sibwing, was based in Novosibirsk. I understand one of Sibwings founder made the An2 for MSFS too under the new name of ATsimulations. 2 hours ago, bofhlusr said: What about China?
