But what I'd like is a 'Game Over'. I know it sounds cheesy... but, it'd help. Not a crash and a regurgitation at my Departure Airport... especially if I'm two hours in...
but if it was a mixture of Online multiplayer/shoot'em up/AH, that'd be rather cool - dodging spitfires in a Cessna Grand Caravan round in teh Grand Canyon... that's what I miss... and I wish I was targeted... civlian flying is rather dull nowadays, much rather fight for the right to fly my cargo in peace undamaged... even the ocassional hijacking - fly me to XXXX, then onwards to the destination airport! Still, this is someone who gazes at CFS3 and 4... betcha can't get AH on them though |

I too am of an older generation, I turned 50 in June, I too have health problems, (not the least being only 1 third of my heart works!). Flight simming is great fun but i really cant justify spending a fortune on it. (the wife would kill me!) So long as the sytem I have works and looks good I cant see the point of changing it. Maybe if my PC goes bang or the whole thing collapses I may consider it but until then I,ll stick with what I have. |

I like your way of thinking , I find the same thing, I like the challenge, Also by running real world weather it makes an interesting way of checking the days weather ! on a personal note the experience of taking one of the big propliners through a storm and into a successfull landing gives a great sense of satisfaction, and a lot of respect for the guys that did it for real when I was growing up. No shoot 'em up game can do that, besides as far as I,m concerned there is far too much killing going on in the real world without playing at it. My only concession to that is my original version of CFS which I occasionally fly and which proves that air to air combat is a lot harder than you'd think. |

I miss having no supersonic boom, especially in my 747 that I slew up to 99,999ft and drop ... more particularly in my F22A at 50ft AGL...

NotYet Do you have any more aicraft that go supersonic with the with the trasonic pressure wave and very loud sonic BANG. the MIG 29 is the only one I have to do it well without 'overspeed' showing up all the time I have it ''Down to a T'' dive to tower 'BOOM' pull up turn, back to the tower 'BOOM' as close to tower as possible somtimes I crash I have NICKS CRASH on fs9 for that. no need to cheat and slew up to 99,999ft thats in class of Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 unreal for a 747

So as close to tower as possible? I've always had cockpit view... I'll try it :)
I have F14, F15, F16, F18, F22 and all should hit 1200knots at sea level... |

Well it sound like they are keeping the flight sim going but we will have to wait and see what the end product will be.

To be honest, from the feedback that I've read on various forums, I don't think MS can win over the masses. Regardless of what information they provide, a large proportion of the community simply don't trust MS to deliver the sim that they want. I suspect that a large amount of the scepticism came from the DX-10 saga and the scrapping of the ACES team, but each release of FS has had this problem to a certain extent.
Looking at the FAQs that they have posted on their website, they are clearly keeping a close eye on the comments made by community members and are well aware that there is a fear of a dumbing down of the franchise. Personally I think they are intelligent enough to realise that a huge proportion of FS users will accept nothing less than a sim which allows the modelling of complex aircraft. I don't think that anyone should be worried.... |

They're still not giving much away by the look of their new video.

"not giving much away" would be the understatement of the year concerning that video.

Hey Geoffers cool down man how can they have a download of a program that is still being programed. So that one must be a big fib if you ask me.
As they cant have a copy of the game/sim if its still being programed can they.
