Klaiber Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Couldn't watch the whole video, as I was sneaking a peak at work. Will it support VR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kliegmann Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Word on the AH2 forums is that MS is going to pull the same market strategy that they tried with MS flight, pay for each small section of earth you wish to fly into, as well as additional aircraft, locking it out so only they and 3rd party who pays them for the "privilege" to make additional aircraft. Some are also saying that they may also try the "Service" route and charge $10 per month to access the sim Klaiber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 This is amazing! Those clouds! The textures! holy hell I bet you could see the tent cities in Seattle and someone crapping in the street in San Fran! But seriously I would totally be down to grab a stunt plane and weave through buildings and under bridges in VR. EmerlistDavjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butzzell Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Uhm , I thought it was for the new X-Box. Wonder what it will be like using a game pad for control? Snaggle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Xbox game pass?? I guess you can get that for a PC? Monthly fee no thanks.. Erhardt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Windows 10 has access to the X-Box store I guess. I wouldn’t know, I’m still on 7. Playing a flight sim never really appealed to me especially after I got a hold of a combat flight sim. Idk what it is, but if you take away the risk of getting bounced or being shot at by AAA suddenly I’m not interested. It’s kinda like hot lapping in a racing sim. Take away the other cars and I get bored very quickly. But ai know now a few people, personally, who would get a lot of fun out of this. I can’t wait to get these kind of graphics in something like IL-2. Snaggle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britchot Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Update: It is up for pre-order and releases on August 18th. Labroisse, Klaiber, Butzzell and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted August 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 I pre-ordered. Anyone else? TrackIR will be supported at release and VR maybe by October, with the HP Reverb the first supported headset. I see Thrustmaster is releasing an Airbus side-stick version of the T.16000 and an Airbus style dual throttle, likely motivated by the FS 2020 release. Currently busy doing some clean-up and maintenance on my flight sim workstation. GenMarkof 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll circle back, as I would like to run an Air Transport career in a DC-3 or something similar. S! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kliegmann Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 I have not pre-ordered, but I'll be buying next week. I have a new Air Hauler 2 Company set up, based out of KMKE, and ready for the new sim. Bonanza to start, hauling cargo. Then I'll reconfigure the Bonanza for passengers, pick up a Baron to go with it, and a Caravan for cargo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope that the game interface and gameplay will be as good has the look and feel of this new version. On my part, I might try to use a 210 (with a special fuel gas tank)... and try to cross the Atlantic from the North to reach Iceland, and then the North part of Europe! =GenMarkof007= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kliegmann Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Is there a 3rd party making a 210? I'm really hoping my Carnado planes, and Ifly & PMDG 737s transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedsOnMeds Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 I've never flown a civilian flight simulator but this looks like it could be really good for my basic handling skills etc. Might want to get in some LSA's or UL's out of my local regional airport I have here and fly around town!

Britchot Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 I love the civilian flight sim aspect of flying procedures. Military sims are exciting but mostly people just get up and get to shooting each other in the face.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some military flight sim pilots have never actually landed a plane, other than In a burning heap of rubble. I’m hoping the scenery is as good as promised. Visit the airports I used to fly gliders out of, fly over all the relatives houses, fly over and visit interesting places.

TedsOnMeds Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 If I end up getting it I'll probably do a "Race Track Tour" of the US from the Air, based out of my local regional airports! Firefly and GenMarkof 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vogel Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 The graphical fidelity on display here is something I never expected to see with the current crop of simulators. After Microsoft shut down the studio responsible for MSFS several years back I never thought I'd see another entry. Very much looking forward to flying in the new one. Will take me back to my sadly limited time flying the Cessna 152 Aerobat for my PPL, wonder if you can customise your aircraft reg? Mine was G-BFGL. Would be good to fly her again, even if it is virtually. As for buying it, I will soon(tm). Money is a little tight this month having splashed out on a few other purchases.

Erhardt Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 I just got the sim and think Klaiber also has it...I am currently downloading....but will still take many many hours of download before I can play....I am at 17.52Gb of 91,36Gb downloaded.....
