Microsoft Flight Simulator - MASSIVE Details Confirmed That CHANGE The Sim 

Or earth 2...

I just left another commend basically asking if I can have this product :) I just want WASD + mouselook to zoom around the planet in "spectator mode".

No mate. This is just practice for Microsoft. I believe this is a huge plan to anticipate some future (VR/AR) advancement. That they are just checking what is already possible. But the next GTA 7 is gonna be lit.

They literally said they were not doing this... They are focusing on select areas like national parks...

I was just going to say the same thing. Wait till they integrate trains, ships and vehicles.

Were you originally going to lie?

As a Paramotor pilot, trust me. That's what it's ALL about. Fluttering slow.

@@pablobrad100 Absolutely. Like a rug. I was going to say all I cared about was being able to walk around the planes until I saw that. MS Walking Sim for me! 😜

My thoughts entirely. The procedural AI tech takes this sim to another level!

Exactly!😅

Arcade Game clown..

No idea how I managed to do that.

@@ObsidianAnt No worries, it happens. 🙂

NDA cut him off. Let the speculation begin!!

As well as visiting other planets 😂

That's Hilarious 😂 ​@@Channel99-1

I'll join you on that 😂

No need to come out of it these days really. To eat and use the toilet, that's about it.

@@AndrewGrey22 If it weren't for work and all, but yeah lol

What GPU do you plan on running?

@@AndrewGrey22Do you not need sleep then? 😂

I really wish I could skip the plane part and just get a free move camera that can zip around with

@@davescott7680i got good news, ms2020 has that. So i’m sure it’ll be here too

@@davescott7680 I'm pretty sure I've seen a youtube video of somebody doing that exact thing

We live on such a beautiful planet and I've always wanted to travel the world to see it's beauty. This simulator will bring me that much closer to my dream...

I combined simulator would be great. Add the maritime simulator in to the flight simulator. Then drop on a train simulator and you've got a full world transport simulator.

@@GregAbott-sl2bo All great ideas, plus the ability to just drive around in different types of vehicles (semi trucks, normal cars, race cars, etc).

And allow anyone in multiplayer to use other things like boats, cars or trains. I can see some "virtual plane spotting" on a sail boat near a final approach for example... Things like that... But it is great they are trying to make the best out of the box sim for every type of players.

I think these are the key points here, lots of things can be simulated in the MSFS world. Technically, the significant constraint is going to be the lack of a viable *multiplayer* system, just a few hacks left over from FSX which wasn't even considered a multiplayer game. So missions with scripted NPC's will look great, and you can expect to be able to walk around and see them, and the graphics you see will be great (note almost everything in the trailers is hand-crafted) but that's all classic single-player gameplay. I think 'co-op' will appear in MSFS at some point, not least because that's a very standard game mode and Asobo should be comfortable with it, but I'd be very surprised if Asobo magic that up out of nowhere in time for the November launch. The simple technical detail that will tell you if these careers have any future is whether Asobo have simply used the decades-old FSX missions system to craft them (with modern tweaks, of course). If the old system has been used, these missions are a total dead end.

Isn’t it already possible in MS2020 to drive a boat (via mod or something)?

You clearly do not understand what a simulator means, if flying simulation from A to B makes you boring then you are not a true simmer 😂

simming is fun sometimes, other times you just want to have fun other than realistic simming, hence why i have a study level a320 for when i want to do it the real way, and then a little f35b that can manoeuvre slowly and hover for sightseeing and then has a top speed of 7110 ground speed for just ''get me there'' mode XD

Spot on the OP mimics so many of the potato comments about SIms when what they really want is a simple application they can get their jollies from without effort IE: A GAME. They in fact call it a game themselves so therein lies the answer. He came entirely to the wrong place.

Maybe you are a gamer and not a simmer. I happily fly around looking at the virtual world with no actual goal or grind. On the other hand elite dangerous almost bored me to death with it's 'things to do'.

There’s a lot of different kinds of people who like MSFS. Some want to do missions like in a video game, only these are aviation-related. Others want to get as close as possible to flying a real plane. Others are virtual tourists who just want to sightsee without paying through the nose to travel to real places and take helicopter tours. Yet others like to set their own goals, like a flight across America in a Cessna 172 from small airport to small airport. So long as FS2024 is similarly broad in its playstyle support, I think it will be fine. If they try to push one of them as the one true playstyle, that’s where there will be trouble.

Maybe not since they seem to care a lot about Xbox users, might be well optimized

@@machnumber Also, streaming is possible, but I'm guessing you'll need a good connection.

Haha. That was my first thought. My machine handles MSFS2020 fairly well, but it's almost 4 years old and I'm not too confident that an RX6800XT will be able to handle this in VR.

@@jonahfalcon1970 You can be on 1TB/s connection, but it's all useless if Microsoft servers are shait, which we know and have been proven they are, i.e. almost every larger update to MSFS crashing their server or taking forever. I'm on 1Gbit connection and max I've seen MS to take is around 200 Mbit, usually about 100-150Mbit. Steam can go full 800MBit download steadily. Now is that enough to transmit "real time" CFD data across the globe without lagging? Not to mention all other data that may need to be transmitted.

My 4090 should be able to handle this I suppose

I did not get the impression he meant to imply that. Anybody interested enough in MSFS to be watching this channel should be at least vaguely familiar how AI traffic works, just like with planes, its obvious it's going to be generic boats and such. With nearly-real time positions. That's far far more detail I would be interested in personally, and likely to be a resource hog, but I'm sure they'll have the option to turn it off.

I was hoping I could land on random cargo ships, get out and walk around and check out the ship...maybe even start a fight with the crew 😂

Imagine if they added a Planet Coaster/Roller Coaster Tycoon style review system to each flight with passengers.

Sim copter also had a system where your passengers would get sick if you flew too rowdy.

And when you get better pc the FS2028 will come out :3

@@rizzy_the_furry_fox_alt :'( But also: Yay, a new System in 28 :D

What do you currently have?

Given this new sim is made to run on the same Xbox as the 2020, you should be good. Overall much much better performance and usage of the PC hardware was one reason they even made a totally new base sim instead of clinging to the "MSFS 2020 will be updated for ten years" they said on launch. We should be good.

@@Cloudybox12 At the Moment i run R7600 + RX6800 in UWQHD.

Yes that's on purpose. They are struggling with the physics improvements and they don't generate media hype.

lol I hear you - AAA game trailers are always a bit sketch.

I mean this is all in-game footage. Call it what you want, but it's clearly not fake.

@@swipefn1931 I don't think anyone was implying it was fake, just that they can optimize the graphical performance based around what they show in the scenes. It is a massaged view of the product and so "actual results may vary."

@@swipefn1931 well... the amount of hand-crafted custom scenery objects compared to the whole planet is tiny, but the MSFS2024 promo trailer has those front-and center in most of the scenes (like El Capitan, or Monument Valley). It's reasonable to assume missions have been created with more custom scenery. So not fake, but not representative of what you'll be looking at most of the time when casually flying the sim. MSFS Scenery *is* an awesome technical achievement, I'm not complaining.

Let's see if you still think this when it's released. I don't buy any of this crap. It will still be limited by one CPU thread.

It's bullshit, we dont need all that stupid shit, just a well working FLIGHT SIMULATOR, this is not what we get, we get crap, and even bad functioning crap..

Microsoft vehicle simulator lmao

It does seem like they are almost heading in a Forza Horizon-ish direction with the sim.

@@USSAnimeNCC- unironically yes

reminds me of Ilan Papini's vehicle simulator, if anyone remembers that

@@Velarieth Yeah no. The highly detailed parts of the world will be few and far between.

Doubt this will be on Xbox. Or if it is, it will be seriously downgraded.

There is a free addon for FS2020 called "We Love VFR". It adds tall objects into the current sim. The makers of that addon are the same people that Microsoft is working with to add tall objects into FS2024. Basically, they are integrating that addon into the base sim. So if you grab "We Love VFR" for FS2020 you don't need to wait until November to get at least some of the tall objects added.

@@SectionNyne sweet thanks for the tip

You can see a British Airways sign at JFK at the start as well. Though no sign of any BA liveries

You can see they have at the start of the video.

In my honest opinion and I'm not a fanboy, on the long run they delivered 90% of what they promised for fs'20. In some aspects they accomplished even more. Fs'20 is/was refreshing for the flight sim genre also an experiment for MS and Asobo, I bet they tried out many things in alpha and closed beta during version releases from which they learned how they can do things if not in this sim due to limitations then in the new iterations. I highly believe they are going to deliver. Another thing points to this speculation is how they advertised both sims, fs'20 was showcased to appeal more to the casual, weekend flyers, but they realised the more invested avrage and hardcore simmers are the one keeping it alive and keeping afloat the whole industry. Points to this are the new flight planning, walk around features, two suspected airlner A320 and A330, possibly close to study level, all of these at launch. Fingers crossed they don't mess it up. I just hope the helicopter simulation is going to be as good as in DCS. I like flying in DCS, but the limited maps are taking away my mood sometimes. They get boring after a while.

Lmao yea

Apparently that's all because of the new lighting technology! They didn't even touch the water haha. Goes to show just how important good and realistic lighting is!

???????

​@@burgadahz17 !!!!!!!

Or Game Pass and try it out

The flight dynamics are already great in MSFS and they are improving them in 2024. It's just up to the third party developers to take full advantage of them.

@@Tuskin38 The fact that Microsoft can put in the Halo Pelican or the Dune Ornithopter for people to fly around in makes me question just how good the flight dynamics actually are compared to how much is faked. It doesn't matter if they say they include CFD if they can easily turn it off to support fantasy craft so a person never knows just how much a plane is flying based on real physics versus what the designers _think_ the flight experience should be like.

Flight dynamics are poor

@@CAL1MBO Nope

@@Tsudico AFAIK the only default 2020 aircraft to use it are the C172 (g1000), the A310, the SR22 and the A320V2 But several third party aircraft have taken advantage of it, and they confirmed at FSExpo 2024 that every default aircraft in 2024 will use it plus all the other advances they've made in flight dynamics since 2020 launched.

This. I still jump on FSX occasionally just to fly with a friend.

shared cockpit is listed as post-launch feature on the wishlist.

@@Tuskin38 'wishlist' doesn't fill me with warm and fuzzies. Consider it. Planes are often flown by 2 pilots. So what does MS add to its new Flight Simulator? Boats...

⁠@@Tuskin38Shared cockpit has been on 2020’s Wishlist too since before its launch. I know, since I put it there (and was subsequently deleted for being a duplicate). Until I see it on the patch notes, I won’t believe it.

@@andymarcelli2835 They have boats in 2020 as well Plus the people making the boats are not the same people who would be programming shared cockpit.
