I remember a user asking for this back in the day and he was laughed at saying go play something else instead that was awful what happened to him.

I hope we can fire missiles and guns and the whole plane functions and we get F14, F16 and F22 raptors want to see some explosions we getting this with this add on?

Meh, I'll stick with DCS World for combat.

MSFS is good for calm and relaxing jaunts.

Thjat's how I was for a long time as well. I kept jumping between a couple different planes due to lack of patience but honestly they're all "study sim" flight models.

I finally learned the A-10C well enough to do some missions and it was well worth it.

Hang in there, it's super rewarding.

So Flight Sim is only coming to Series X/S consoles? Did we know this already and I just missed it?

Probably just a tie in.

But imagine Afterburner done in this engine.

@uninspiredcup: AC is not a flight sim, you are correct. But it is fun, which a flight sim sorely lacks.

AC is fun apart from all that long winded anime bollocks that gets in the way of the game.

I am big fan of AC. the last entry was good, but yeah, the anime and constant radio blabber got really annoying. The fact that they didn't put in a custom mission maker was a bit daft.

Also want more than a basically scripted landing thing next time.

that said, flight sim and the top gun will be more than enough i reckon.

That's what I enjoy in flight sim is the landing. Looking forward to doing the landing challenges, seen a few on YouTube and they look great.

Trying to land on an aircraft carrier at night in rough seas.

That was the most hardest sometimes seemingly impossible things to do in the old, Janes: USNF. But I love the sim. :P
