After 10 years of Next Gen FS

and 10 year old bugs

Great suggestion. Unfortunately Iā€™m not in tech, so donā€™t have contacts there. That said, Iā€™ll guarantee there are at least a critical number of talented Googlers who sim and/or would be passionate about flight simming.

hot dog stands. We desperately need hot dog stands And some ā€˜go fasterā€™ stripes on the screen. (Well it works for cars). :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

But kidding aside, many will say what has been listed in the original post hasnt anything to do with a Flight Simulator, as indeed you did Norman. And you are right. (there is a but coming isnt thereā€¦)
BUT I wonder if this is where we ā€˜old simmersā€™ always thought the contradiction might arise
as this list would fit perfectly in a ā€˜Gameā€™.
And this ā€˜Simulatorā€™ is now marketed as a ā€˜Gameā€™.
So the requests are not unreasonable for a 'Gameā€™. :disappointed_relieved:

Yes pest control ā€¦.

Iā€™d like it to simulate me having to pickup the kids, while being a virtual pilot of course, because the school nurse called. I really think itā€™s missing thatā€¦

Oh that would be too real ā€¦.

My vision for it was that it should be a world simulator. You get it for free, and walk climb anywhere in the world for free.

And then you have the Flight sim addon, and the train addon, and the farmer jones addon, etc. Despite what you would call it that would be great.

Wake up get in a taxi to the airport get in you plane and fly, or goto the train terminal and train? lol, or get into you boat simulator and boat etc etc etc, and all those other modules would interact with the main world simulator. Of course if you wanted to drive a boat youā€™d have to buy that mod for the sim. But hey if you get tired of flying all the time why not capt a big ship across the ocean or a little one across the world. ETC.

Yes and at some point you donā€™t know anymore if you are in your real or in your sim life anymoreā€¦. wasnā€™t there a book or a movie along that line ?

Or indeed into Space. ā€œMake it soā€.
ā€œEngage Mr. Data and follow that Teslaā€

Shhh thats the soon to be released Star Flight add on. We havent announced that one yet LOL ā€¦

This is gonna get locked I tell ya what.

I think what is really needed is an optional in game career mode - buy planes get rewarded for flying to exotic locations. A really good way to get you to fly places you never even thought about flying to and a bit of extra motivation.

Also dedicated cargo planes and ground crews to support them (containers, equipment, new animations) would be a big plus.

I know about Neofly - dosent work for us on Xbox . . .

All in 8K VR with smooth 120+ fps? A true interactive ā€œdigital twinā€

This Iā€™m actually somewhat serious about for a flight sim. At least up to the Karman Line is credible with Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic.

Yup and you can go home and tell your wife, I followed you in the sim today and I saw what you were doing with Fred! ;p

Itā€™s a simulator. It canā€™t be too real. This is something we really need :slightly_smiling_face:

No come on dude. :rofl: As I said to someone else: whatā€™s next, go home to wife and kids? Maybe go to see the mistress in Winnipeg, you dirty dog, youā€¦ :wink:

Gta will give you like half of that list.

I would not mind seeing MS get back into the combat flight sim business.
Though I have plenty at this time to keep me well entertained with DCS and IL-2 Great Battles.
