Quantum of Phallus posted:is there any way to turn off the UI in third person mode? Would like to know this as well. I tried looking for it but got lost in a maze of menu options. I want to take pretty pictures without UI. hmm, does this work? https://twinfinite.net/2020/08/microsoft-flight-simulator-screenshots-remove-ui/ It's for pc and I just turned off my xbox for the day but sounds like this may work.

There’s a free-look mode where I can just look around at poo poo without worrying about my plane crashing, right? How do I do that?

From there, press the left stick to open up the toolbar, select the camera, and set it to "Showcase". Now you have a free camera you can zoom around where-ever.

TheScott2K posted:They would be smart to make printable PDF reference cards for the HOTAS setups they support in the game. I'm constantly bringing up the controls menu because I forgot which button on this thing does the parking brake and stuff. This is such a good idea, because the reference cards that came with complex PC games back in the day were the only way I could play poo poo like Tie Fighter and Mechwarrior 2. Without them I would have been too frustrated about having to remember what all the keys on the keyboard did.

I crashed into my own house but my plane didn't actually crash it just flipped upside down and the landing gear got stuck in the ceiling. I know it's not meant to just be a Google Earth drone game but it's slightly surprising just how bad regular towns look in this. The algorithm makes everything in a medium sized city look like dirt roads and barns. I guess that's what I get for living in Iowa. Gonna do some night flying later so hopefully that looks pretty cool.

This game is insane. I've flown around like 10 different neighborhoods near me and recognized buildings and road signs in every one Some of the buildings look hosed up but I can still tell what they are from having driven past them so many times IRL. ZeeBoi posted:I’m terrible at flying haha I've crashed several times. At first I was going through the tutorials but they were very slow and I just wanted to fly, so I did but without a proper handle of what I was doing. Oh well, I still managed to recognize a bunch of poo poo.

I’m a big fan of all the huge trees clipping through the outer lanes of I-45 as cars drive perpendicular to the actual highway. Flew over Minute Maid Park and tried to land on the GRB Convention Center, ended up smashing into the Toyota Center roof upside-down and sideways. 6/10, would probably fly Air Wagner again.

univbee posted:Do you need free space for Flight Simulator on your Xbox Series X the fourth or so Xbox? Well I have good news! I've done a copious breakdown of the game made by war criminals and misogynists. Realizing this descriptor doesn't narrow things down, I'm talking about Call of Duty, and on top of funding some of the worst pieces of poo poo humanity has yet to offer, it takes up a lot of space. In fact, to install "everything" on a Series X (basically so every menu option in the current CoD does what it says, and also has the HD graphics), you're looking at 433.3 gigs, of which 203.4 gigs has to be on fast storage. Now let's break it down. Speaking of, how would the PS5 handle updating this behemoth? Do you still need a bunch of extra free space?

My favorite dumb thing so far is how the Narrows Bridge looks like a massive dam if you fly perpendicular to it but normal if you are flying parallel to it. Also it was hilarious to take off and immediately see someone on my friends list also flying around roughly the same area. E: holy poo poo the taxi lesson might be the most infuriating tutorial thing I have ever done, why is this the hardest loving thing in the game so far.

LIVE AMMO COSPLAY posted:Speaking of, how would the PS5 handle updating this behemoth? Do you still need a bunch of extra free space? For Warzone definitely. For Reagan…not sure actually, I think the PS5 can handle updating PS5 titles without the overhead. Warzone is extra-spicy because the old packs still technically exist and are downloadable and can cause even more bloat.

MW2019 Is also completely broken and activision refuse to acknowledge that some maps just do not load and various features have stopped working in the recent update. I say recent update but the updates are only to warzone, now MW, yet still must be applied to my MW install.

Melbourne is as disappointing as feared in flight sim. Zero effort, very old data. Kinda expected a bit more for a city of 5+ million. Downtown Vancouver where I'm originally from is perfect though. I guess it benefits from its proximity to Seattle. Just 9/11'd my brother's condo and sent him a clip, which is basically mandatory as a goon I suppose. https://vimeo.com/580123230 Edit: that's his exact unit on attempt no. 1, pretty proud of myself.

On the series X I can’t get flight sim to actually do anything? like im in the menu’s and there’s no way to actually start playing the game. Tried deleting my local game data, rebooting the console, manually checking for updates via the OS.. Is there a way to check for pending downloads in-game? I’ve tried all the game modes, and I can just ‘go back’ with b. Also when I use the right analog stick to scroll i can’t scroll back up. This is all on top of the fact that the splash screen looks like a 1080p pic stretched to 4K, then i see a loving mouse cursor on the top left of the tv lmao Edit - aaah the controls are just straight up busted. I think this is because I have save data in the cloud from my win10 sessions. I’m going into the control options but there’s no cursor and I cant highlight or select anything. Alright back to my computer I guess! Haptical Sales Slut fucked around with this message at 05:06 on Jul 28, 2021 |

I'm glad it's on Game Pass, because I probably would've had buyer's remorse had I bought it. I've flown all around my area a couple times (which was really impressive) and tried out a few of the Discovery Flights and I think I'm done with it already. Flying really high made me want to jump out of the plane and parachute to the ground like in GTA (was that San Andreas or GTAV that let you do that?). Kinda made me want to play some more GTA, though I'm sure as hell not playing through GTAV's trash story again.

I installed GTA5 on gamepass not realising that the last time i played it was on 360 and thus dont have a completed save. I wanted to kind of just have a game to gently caress around in for a half hour or so on lunch breaks and stuff. the opening mission with its weird lovely Rockstar control scheme made me immediately uninstall it. not playing through that rear end again.

Went downstairs this morning to see my six year old firing up a flight around Naples. He loves it - he's big into train simulators (he owns both versions of Train Sim World on Xbox and spends a lot of his birthday money on new trains and routes) but that's just because he's into trains so I didn't think he'd give a poo poo about MSFS.

I think control schemes for that kind of game have just come on too much, it's honestly baffling to me that so many people continue to play that game to this day. Good for them I guess. I beat it at launch but didn't want to hang around in it. Edit: Check your inboxes for Halo beta invites! Got mine.

Does anyone know how to use Xbox Cloud Gaming through a browser? I'm in the UK if that is relevant. I keep getting stuck going round in circles and ending up at a page that says 'Thank You For Your Interest' and shows me the list of countries that supports it, which includes mine. I never actually get to connect.
