Flight Simulator

[LammersXJR]

Still thinking about getting a PC just to play this in VR. Which GPU do you have and what are you getting out of it.

Flight Sim ‘24 is heavily rumoured to be coming to PS5. That’s not to say there will be a PSVR2 version - but it’s worth holding out to see what the plans are.

FS20 should've come to Xbox One and was officially planned after having it out on PC + X series consoles.

I can’t even begin to imagine how it would’ve performed on a Xbox One.. 🙈

Yes and I guess VR on PS5 is kind of the same slideshow if FS24 will ever materialize on PS5. PC is the only valid option with VR.

Does fine on the XSX (actually looks better than my PC, although my PC seems to run a little cleaner and has more/better inputs of course) but yeah, especially the OG X1, yeesh....

PSA: If anyone needs to speak to @Pearl Jam , you've got till 18 November.
After that, he's busy for the next million years...

Can't wait. Hopefully, they can improve the menus this time so they don't feel like the game is on the verge of crashing at all times.

😂😂 yeah I’m pretty excited but having said that, I’m still loving this version a lot , I’ll also be in Thailand when it gets released so something to look forward to on the miserable flight home.
Might treat myself to a new headset too, the Pimax Crystal light looks fantastic👍

So the new one has been released and it looks like a complete train wreck of a launch.. and this folks, is why I’ll never preorder anything, not even for the Sim I’ve spent hours in surpassing even my beloved Driveclub, as noted in the post above this one I’m in Thailand right now and for the next couple of weeks so hopefully is good to go when I get back to the UK

I didn't even tried to start it and wasting time (myself beeing one of those preorder i***ts) but "only" used my rewards-points to pay for it. Price will be stable for a while like FS2020 so no rush and I would've paid it later anyway. We'll see if we get some compensation after they fixed their servers.

I've installed it through Game Pass, so it was a no-brainer.

Having said that, I wasn't able to even start it on the 19th and yesterday it was a jerky mess.

Yeah same here, probably won't even bother with it now for about a month until some of the initial issues are sorted out.

I'm going to stick to '20. What does '24 have or do that '20 doesn't?

A career with different missions like rescuing etc., hot air balloons and airships, improved Physics, lighting, clouds, trees, cars, ships and much better ground textures, seasons, more diverse wildlife, and being able to leave your plane anywhere after landing (which can be pretty cool, tried it yesterday myself).

Thanks for that but none of that is grabbing me.

I'm playing in VR now using the PSVR2 and it is a game changer especially in the low n slow VFR flying that I tend to do. I thought it might be annoying not being able to use the keyboard controls, but I realise I don't use keys that often, and being able look for a switch in the cockpit and use it via the mouse is so much better and easier anyway. My landings seem to smoother too.
