HammR25 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 That one isn't in there but since it doesn't exist anymore I can understand why. However if you want to fly in or out of Pyonyang North Korea you can go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loafer Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I’ve been messing with FS2020 and IMHO it’s absolutely mind blowing fantastic. I really like the “landing challenges” it has too and the hunt for the leaderboards. The graphics at ultra settings are jaw dropping. Seriously I agree with what one of the posters said earlier, this is one of those titles that will be seen as a defining moment in our hobby. I’ve been a fan of Sublogic Flight Simulator since the Apple II days, even bought a 16k expansion card just so I could get two more camera angles for that game (the wing tip cameras if I recall lol). BTW, even though I have a flight yoke and also the Saitek X-55 Rhino, I’ve only played it so far with the xbox controller and it plays fine. Of course it will play better but I’ve been so busy with work lately I’ve been too lazy to set up the yoke. Embarrassing, I know lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Pendleton Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 Yeah, I still have not gotten around to getting this game yet. I will get it eventually, though! Right now I've been resisting the urge to buy new games as much as possible since I've had a bunch of preordered games come in recently and there are a few more coming. I didn't have the courage to try the Japanese version of 13 Sentinels, for example (although I think I could probably do it now that I've recently gained quite a bit of confidence in my ability to play, understand, and enjoy games that are entirely in Japanese), but it releases in the US tomorrow, so that's another one that's going to be here soon. Eventually, though, I'll get it! I can't wait to see how it runs on my computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Pendleton Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 Well, I got a new screenshot from my friend. My house has been upgraded from an empty lot to a mostly empty lot... now there is a large tree there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I see it, there are only two possible explanations for that: a) The game uses outdated satellite images b) You are a Gummy Bear Edited October 11, 2020 by IntelliMission 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 So what's the state of affairs with this? Did this latest chapter in the Flight Simulator franchise fizzle out? Or am I just not visiting the right forums? No one seems to know or hear or say anything about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 They're still working hard on it upgrading the environmental data and structures. And a big update just hit that streamlined the install size of the game significantly. All quiet on the Xbox front. Presumably it's still coming to at least Series S/X, but they're not saying much.

Atariboy Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 (edited) They finally announced a console release date. Will release on Xbox Series X/S on the 27th of July. No news about the Xbox One version that was initially promised, then started sounding like it wasn't going to happen, but then in recent weeks again sounded like it still might be in the works. Perhaps it's for the best if it doesn't happen given the technical requirements of the title. A severely compromised port is worse than no port at all.

Disappointing to me, because I was going to get it, but if they can't do it, they can't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from the XSX footage it looks eye popping on it. Clearly the best looking console game this year when it comes out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loafer Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I believe I read somewhere the title will be available on the XBOX One via their cloud service, the same way XBOX their games will work on android/iOS. IE: depending on where you live, your internet connection, the experience could be “good enough” to “ugh, this ain’t right” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Anything requiring an internet connection isn't right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Pendleton Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Honestly I still haven't bought this game yet. I'll hopefully get to it soon, but I've been focusing on other stuff for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
