fsx is such a bad example because nobody ever actually got to run it at max, it just runs like poo poo on everything mostly because it's single thread.

I’m pretty amused, the marketing email alerting me that the preorder is active actually lists Steam FIRST, and then MS Store.

Wow what a terrible unrealistic game. The angled turn for N5@28R in ORD isn't in the sim. Also in real life when you're taxing westbound on N you can turn directly onto L without having to transition onto EE but in the sim it looks like you're going to have to do that. 0/10 would not buy. On a totally unrelated note what's a good cheap joystick for someone who's about to be furloughed from an airline and will want to scratch the flying itch with MSFS? Asking for a friend.

I'd certainly like to know what's going on over at Asobo. On one hand, they introduce egregious autopilot bugs (wobbling altitude hold on the TBM, the A320 spazzing like a seesaw trying to fly curves) with the closed beta, and then they surprise announce initial VR support at launch.

The release date for the g2 is 'fall'.

New video of all the planes and hand-crafted airports: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIZur7caBvM I know we were making fun of the "big trees" guy earlier but when my city's airport (Orlando) showed up I could immediately tell the trees were way too big.   The people mover actually moves, though, so I'll forgive them.

I'm not crazy impressed with the lightning effects. Every single bolt in that vid was just a quick flash and then fade. No interesting staccato flashes or ripples of lighting that light up the sky for seconds at a time.

There better be downbursts and every other interesting part of a thunderstorm modeled! Actually... they're using real weather right? Could you conceivably storm chase in game like those Oklahoma news choppers?

If you had not pointed this out, I probably never would have noticed. Part of me wants to fly through a forest of redwood-sized palms now though.

The trees are probably oversized to achieve dense coverage with less individual trees for performance reasons or something.

It probably looked weirdly bare with properly sized trees for reasons of renderers not being real life, so they they just had a TREE_EXAGGERATION_FACTOR and played with it until it looked best.

Reminds me of how one if the airlines that operates the A380 with the private cabin option had to put out a notice saying "please don't gently caress in these, the walls are super thin and we can all hear you"

I got myself one of these (Thrustmaster TCA): http://www.thrustmaster.com/node/9429?destination=505/1 Pretty sure it's just a modified T.16000M, however the construction feels pretty solid and overall it's pretty comfortable. I like it better than the x52 I used to have (only problem I see is that it only has 4 buttons on the stick itself + hat, and one of the buttons is kinda hard to reach. However I think this is more of an issue in combat and space sims, not for MSFS). Timespy fucked around with this message at 06:50 on Jul 31, 2020 |

I'm gonna replace the throttle with the Logitech one and to account for the shortage of buttons I'm gonna build a button box extension for it. Anytime between now and 2025, in any case
