This will probably prompt me to make some upgrades soon. -
I usually find it's when I go back to the old version and then i wonder "how did i ever play it like this?".GooberTheHat wrote:I always find with graphical upgrades, you rarely notice until you upgrade, and then you think "how on earth did I play it like that before?""Like i said, context is missing."

With Xbox Game Pass's novice-flying subscribers in mind, gamepad support is solid enough, with most of the basics—throttle, rudder, yoke, and brake—getting dedicated buttons, and there's support for button combinations as well. The d-pad fakes like a POV hat switch for quickly glancing around, while the right joystick offers more fine-tuned viewing angles. (If you find this pair of camera controls redundant, consider reassigning functions for one of them.) And rumble support for standard Xbox One controllers is a welcome indicator of plane drift when controlling rudders (using the triggers) for a proper take-off. But you'll still need to be near a keyboard to have fuller control of every possible button during a gamepad-driven flight by default, including that all-important parking brake.

That's kind of what I meant, but put it badly. -
It's insanely impressive. Especially with the weather and all the cool physics simulation

Yeah you can land all over the place I think, I've seen video of people landing on top of airport terminal buildings. It's going to be amazing when you get a bunch of people all flying together doing crazy stuff. -
This is going to be great fun to fly in crazy wind with friends, trying dangerous landing challenges. -
Wow it streams about a gig an hour in environmental data."Plus he wore shorts like a total cunt" - Bob

This guy finds his own house.

This guy flys past Arran in the next video I think. -
I missed that. Will check it out."Plus he wore shorts like a total cunt" - Bob

It's a shame he just flirts with the Southern edge but I suppose I can land in the garden when this is out."Plus he wore shorts like a total cunt" - Bob

There's a bunch of animals around the world to find too, like elephants, giraffes, flamingos, bears, and others. Bush flying is going to be very fun.

Astounding. Simply astounding. This will sell the next xbox. What happened to this game series? It went very quiet for a long time.....I presume MS stopped this series in a post 9/11 world?Holding the wrong end of the stick since 2009. -
Some of the lighting and weather effects are stunning. Aye, it's the perfect game to sell the higher end Xboxes. And the game pass. Shame it's not the deluxe edition.

Multiplayer is going to be unreasonably good fun I think, just imagine doing 747 landing contests in a hurricane.
Only 9 days now, I've made a channel in the Discord in anticipation.
Howdy, Stranger!
