World updates come and go as quick as they arrived…
If you as a simmer had the option to decide on a location for a future world update what Location would you choose and why?
Me personally I would choose Thailand for its variety of life, culture, historic locations and attractive islands.
Thailand for me is a generous size with so much history and culture to offer.

Poland and the Baltic countries to wrap up most of Europe.
Poland is history rich too
Greece to fill out the Mediterranean
Greece photogrammetary would be insane
India and the subcontinent
Iran. Very challenging terrain and should have some lovely architecture. But given the current situation, it doesn’t seem very likely to happen.

SE Asia, lots of volcanos and tropical reefs
Mexico and the rest of Latin South America, lots of volcanos, mountains
FYI, many of these requests have a topic in the Official Microsoft Flight Simulator > Wishlist . For example (though not all in this list are for an update):
World Update Wishes
You may wish to add your vote to any of your particular favorites!
South-Africa!! the Western Cape in particular, Cape-Town of niks Boeta!
The northern half of the Caspian Sea is completely fake. Lots of history up there.
Toulouse and south of france as the historical city of aviation and Airbus nest, is not even in photogrametry !
I’d wish that MS would come forward, would provide 3 or 4 available options and let the community vote.
Fury know what dara is available, and we know what we want most out of these options.
Ooo I fully agree the most votes would be the next project i think it would for sure bring the aspect of community focus into play
France has some iconic hidden gems for sure especially in the south along with the aviation history there is also the mountenous castles and fortresses
Is it just me or have I been spoilt with the quality of photogrammetry when compared to the relatively poor quality of ai generated buildings?
Is photogrammetry very expensive to produce? If so, i wonder how many people would pay extra for specific areas?
