MS Flight Is Out!!

[Altiris]

Microsoft ruined the series. Why? Now its a game for 5 year old , instead of being a real-life simulating simulator.

Depends on what you define to be a real life sim, I think MS Flight is fine and I like it.

What.

XP points in a flight sim? Not very good flight dynamics, and jobs? Seriously?
And I hate free to play games, they just want to suck out all the money from the players.

What.

Previously, you could fly all across the world in Flight Simulator. The game came with around 20 planes for the price of any other game.
Microsoft Flight limits you to a few locations, and makes you pay $15 for each plane if you want more than three basic ones.
I would be okay with this if they actually improved the simulation or gameplay, but it doesn't seem like they did. I can't say for sure because I haven't played yet, but from the trailer the graphics don't look much different from Flight Simulator X. The planes may be a little more detailed, but the scenery doesn't look any better. They just watered down the gameplay so they could reach a larger audience.
This game is a step back from previous flight simulators. They just watered it down and made it free so they could make money selling DLC.

Oh, I just wasn't aware 5 year olds had the capabilities to play games meant for pre-teens/teenagers.

OT: Yes, I've played Fsx for many years now and I probably won't be playing this if you all think it's stuffty.

Looks even more boring than FSX. (no jets yet)
would wait until the jets come out.

This isn't a flight sim guys. It's a game. Microsoft isn't catering to the flight sim crowd, this is much more casual and laid back.

I think I'm the only one more interested in the song than the game.
What song is in the trailer? :S

Because it's been beaten in the flight sim category already

Fsx isn't a loving game.

[Pepsidude]

Fsx isn't a loving game.

It can still be boring. To be fair It's not the kind of thing I'm into, I just find it boring is all.

is there only 1 plane you can fly and you half to buy the rest?
