I have a suggestion for upgrade the simulator and make it intresting

When you land at the airport of destination you choose. It will be great if it will be a possible to take a virtual bus tour at the city, and see some of the city and slso people. It will make it more realistic. The player can build a story, it’s much better.

Think about that

I want to go to my hotel. Then visit a museum. Then a nice local restaurant please. And then get drunk… and…

That sounds like the average layover :joy:. Maybe when I come home from a flight I can hop in my car in MSFS, drive to the airport and do it over again.

Just integrate the game seamlessly with Cities Skylines and job done.

For that more authentic experience integrate it either with Disneyworld for the kids, or Doom 3 for the adults, all the while plotting how to take out the Thargoid Interceptor inevitably waiting for you when you take off.

I smell sexism here. :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

We want seasons first ! maybe later ! LMFAO

If you taxi through your average photogrammetry city at ground level, you might not be so keen. :slight_smile:

People though could be doable. I have the TNCM addon, and there are people on the beach waving, and some walking around. It could be done. As long as it is something we could disable if we didn’t want it. Extra details like this, potentially slowing it down further may not be well received.

Sounds like a great idea, but MSFS is just a “flight simulator” after all, not a world travel simulator. To feel like I’m really traveling I just use Google Earth or Street View to take a virtual walking tour on the streets of the city I land in. I research the place on Wikipedia and look at some photos to add depth.

I agree that the OP‘s suggestion is over the top but I have to admit I‘d find it rather cool to have animated passengers boarding the plane and an avatar mode at some point. I even wouldn‘t mind a gamey feature such as driving from the airport building to the aircraft and boarding it. I know, it‘s absolutely unnecessary and there are loads of more important things to do first, but why not, sometime in the more distant future?

I think this is a nice task for third party devs.

Have you ever taken a drone tour of the lower level textures ? Yeah,i think not.

I’ll agree. All one has to do is take the drone down to street level to take a good look. Yeah, from the air, it looks pretty good. But close up, not so much…

Can you imagine how long this would take them? Let’s let them focus on fixing basic things like performance and LOD/photogrammetry first. :joy:

I read that, in future, we will be able to leave the airplane to inspect the aircraft (altough I think it is already possible using drone)

It would be fun to land at an airport and rent a car to explore the city.

I’d settle for big black suvs pulling up to the Longitude and Lattitude upon parking.

Like this I saw on a recent flight? :wink:
This was at KLEB late last November :slight_smile:

That sounds like the 2030 plan…PC’s aren’t able to handle that now…:frowning:
