I haven’t had a game make my jaw drop (at both the graphics and the demand on my system’s resources) in a long while, but this one certainly does. So after a quick RAM upgrade, I’m now hooked!
I’ve learned some basics, but am much more content to simply fly around and take in the scenery or work through achievements / activities. As a result, I’ve can proudly say that I have about a 75% chance of actually landing…and maybe even on an actual runway! Yes indeed, I’m the type that can admit to racking up two overall scores of less than 400 points in landing challenges. But I did in fact get credit for finishing them, so to me that’s success.
Considering my great achievements flying solo, I’m ready to give multiplayer a try provided I can find a small group where an old man with the attention span of a gnat can fit in. Some sense of realism is necessary, and learning along the way is great, but for me it’s more about having fun. So if there is a group out there where “Bridge” is the equivalent of “Squirrel”, immediately requiring all members to try to fly under said structure, please consider letting this old man sign up. You may have to be patient on occasion, but at least you will have someone to permanently occupy the lowest spot in your pilot rankings.
Central Time Zone, USA, (GMT-6), but I usually play late nights/wee hours of the morning. And yes, I have the names on both XBox and Discord, so I’m claiming “dibs” on the tail number in game as well (I get quite the kick out of my ATC conversations).
