Cheers for the update Dave - graphics look fantastic.

I could be totally wrong here, but there seems to be much more of an emphasis to the 'fun' side of flying - rather than the more serious simmer who is after a 'As real as it gets' kind of experience?

Have i totally read it wrong? Or is Flight leaning towards a game rather than a simulator?

Who knows Nigel. Flight will be more friendly to new pilots, and if that encourages new players that's good. I'm hoping it's got enough detail for us oldies besides the eye candy.

Don't look all that good in my opinion...
Looks the same as FSX, assuming it's dumbed down from from what I have heard.

Have to say I'm disappointed with MS Flight as well. I was hoping for a top notch simulator but it looks as if we are getting an arcade game instead. Not happy about multiplayer being on Xbox only and 'aerocaches' etc either.
If things don't get any better may be time to have a look at X Plane.

Until real simulation software go public, I'm sticking with FS2004 and occasional FSX to fly with you guys..

Hey all,

Just wanted to let you guys know, this is only a very short vid of only 3 prop aircraft. There's no way on earth we could know what's coming, as the beta only just got released. I think we have to wait for pics of big jets and stuff, but until now i agree that it is looking to be a bit Arcadish. but as i said, thats only a 1.11 video. let's hope they don't screw it up!!! :P
Cheers

Martijn I can not see anything elce coming from it as you design your own character this means like I said before it is going to be based for kids messing about not the true simulator fanatic

Zack, as i said this is a video of 3 prop aircraft. I don't think you've played the game so all i'm saying is dont judge until you've tasted. let's see what the 747 looks like, and we'll go from there. i sure hope they dont mess up.
