MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR - PREVIEW
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 гру 2024
- I recently got hands on experience with the new Microsoft Flight Sim, and had the chance to pitch questions to the team. Here's what I found out.
------------------------------------------------------
Frooglesim videos are recorded on, edited on and otherwise completely powered by Jetline Systems (jetlinesystems.com).
I am an Airline Pilot / Sim instructor with over 5000 hrs on the 737NG but this release makes me feel like I did when I was 8 years old and discovering MSFS 95 for the first time. I cannot put into words how excited I am for this.
😊
They need a Ramp simulator add-on now :P so you flight crew guys can experience doing the toilet truck on hot sunny days lol
AJS000 hahah, lets hope 😅
I see a Divorce in my near future.
😄👍 💜
Lmfao
Was just thinking the same thing lol
me too friends.so true.thats why she divorced me
I told my wife who needs to travel the world when we retire, we just fly there from home. Then I got the look and now we're going to Paris in Sping
Word from an MS insider says that, when you land the 737 in LAX, you'll discover that your bags are in LHR. Such realism!
hahaha I feel that
@@ClausThanner or another scenario is the bags were loaded on a different aircraft bound for LHR.
And if you fly with a Turkish Delaylines livery, your baggage will be completely shredded on its first outing. Such wow!
Recent images from the Cassini spacecraft have confirmed that Saturn’s outermost ring consists of lost airline luggage. It’s true.😲
Lol as a former ramp agent, it wasn’t me 👀🤷🏻♂️
Microsoft: shy to release pre-alpha footage
Pre-alpha footage: looks better than any flight sim in history

Will Wakefield You sound like you’ve had a negative experience with an LEO, had trouble with the law or are just otherwise deeply disturbed. You should probably seek help.
next gen fs
Looks is different than feels.
im just gonna predict that almost everyone buying this game at some point is going to try to find their house
how tf did this get soo much likes.
Yep, thought the same. Got worried though as I checked Bing maps and found that there was a huge cloud over the entire area where I live. I hope they have more data than that.
Is it possible to fly in EU as well? I live in Denmark. Would be cool to crashland in my backyard
@@alexanderulv3886 As far as I understood from this video, they intend the terrain to be world wide, so you can crash into your backyard I hope :)
@@Antares2 Bing is crap tho..
@Mike Studmuffin I just tried, and Bing not only didn't show what I searched for, but it even found some really irrelevant stuff, and that was from typing in ''tits''.. Boobs was about eaqual to both..
Only 6 minutes into the video, My jaws are 100% on the floor, this is stunning and exciting. What a year 2020 is going to be.
You know that's not new footage, right? (Sorry, couldn't help it)
@@weswheel4834 I never seen it before anyway.
@@AussieAviator Ah, apologies. It does look good.
@@weswheel4834 No worries, just get excited for 2020.
@@AussieAviator Oh I am. Signed up for the alpha/beta thing and waiting to install it. I signed up for Dovetail's Flightschool as soon as I got the chance and the same with FS2020. I love a new sim, me. I'm just not quite as excited about it as some people. This is partly due to FSW, unknown PC requirements and exposure to lots of previous hype. Hopefully be good though.
Once they open this to vr, my life is over
They said it's down the road and they could easily implement a simple VR interface but they want it to be perfect and complete! I wouldn't be surprised if FlyInside makes a VR plugin while we're waiting for a native one to be released. If you don't know what FlyInside FSX is, download the free trial NOW. The full version is totally worth the $20 or whatever it is.
The same. I'm going to wait for VR before I get it though, I don't want it spoiled by a 2d display.
@@TheSd1cko >dont want it spoiled by a 2D display
I think that right there sums up just how amazing this sim is going to be.
Same here, I will buy it once there is VR support!
Volumetric stuff might be a problem
That first 3,5 minute history recap was especially great, thanks!
Proper journalism over emotional love/ hate videos. Excellent video. Really exciting to see.
I agree, I prefer people who are unbiased and just present all of the facts and ideas (especially in politics lol)
First thing to do in this game:
1. Look for my house
2. Spy on North Korea
3. Find MH370
4. Land on Area 51
What about area 51?
@Haa Neek Right, we failed once, we can't fail twice
3. Get shot down by Rocket Man
you can already land in area 51
Lol
Microsoft: releases flight sim
Computer: *giggles* I’m in danger
BrennanGH it’s chuckles
It's an xbox only game right?
PC and eventually will be on Xbox
If you look at the E3 Trailer it says Xbox Exclusive
Oh
*FS 2020* : "here I am."
*Real life graphics* : "we need an update I am afraid..
Like Bono Vox said, "even better than the real thing".
Microsoft: Produces one of the most highly detailed flight simulators of all time with thousands of miles of perfectly rendered scenery.
Me: Flies over my house and crashes.
But now everybody in the world can fly over their house and crash too
Looks like I'm flying from Miegs Airport to Little Toad Lake.

"microsoft was uncharacteristically open"
This is the general change the whole Microsoft is going through, driven by the new CEO. Not only can you now find all their new development platforms (.net core, ml. net etc.) opensource on github. They are also bringing some of they older tech, like WPF to opensource.
Windows and office looks like to be the last few products resisting the change.
@@dennvm9882 Open-source is far from being necessity in the tech industry. Most companies do not care if 3rd parties are open source or not, they mostly care about cost and support availability. No really cares if they can read, fork..etc i.e. WPF, or the roslyn compiler. Tons of specialized 3rd party packages (i.e. charting) is still closed.
And services is when the money is right now. I.e. everybody is jumping on cloud and most companies do not want to invest into building and maintaining their own infrastructure.
@@dennvm9882 the shareholders think otherwise
Another youtuber name Catstrator also was given a behind the scenes presentation of this sim too and he flew the same aircraft over the same location at the same time and altitude I don't know but that looks highly suspect!
@@jullienricot930 Froogle mentioned several times that they weren't allowed to capture video during the event, so you don't see his flight. All youtubers are using the same b-roll footage that was released by MS.
IMO Microsoft has been turning it around since Phil Spencer took over of the game division.
this is what my eyes have been wanting for 30 years
@@NipapornP No that would break my immersion
@@bailey2624 lol
@@NipapornP Bro we are to broke to fly a airplane

Just turn down to "Minecraft" settings.. less noise!!
engine noises will provide more realistic experience
Its for the immersion 😂
This looks sooo graphically and CPU demanding
*graphic card starts melting*
That in game footage made me cry
Yes tears of joy.
Alex Botha Agree.
@@Muckylittleme Not as much joy here. I heard him mention no helicopters. Tears of disappointment over here. That new scenery would be a bomb flying choppers through. (yes, I said through. Sometimes my radar altimeter is reading under 10 feet as I go between trees.)
It made me cry because I know my computer won't be able to handle it
@@ChuckRage that's something I've never understood about flight simulator. They looked so bad, yet ran so slow. I cannot imagine what this will require...
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
It is clearly distiguishable if you fully understand how the rendering and procedural modelling/texturing works.

@@WillFaustCuber Which I don't... You're harshing my mellow, dude!
@@heyidiot lmao sorry :D

This will be a perfect game for game streaming services.
My PC: Don't tickle me bitch, give it to me harder.
Any news about minimum specs? I know mine can run it I'm just curious.
As I read this comment, I was just thinking that this may be the time to build a new computer.
This is a traveler's dream game. I have already made a mental list of the cities and places I want to explore. It's going to be insane!

Welcome to the 2020s, where path and ray tracing changed everything. Even Minecraft with tracing looks better than real life 🤣

@@TheDriftingStig 😂👍
There are moments when I thought that this footage was from real life.
just like google maps building rendering, it has to be from afar to have an amazing view.. if those plane will come get closer to an object, im sure it will look $htty
Yeah, stunned by Berlin, Unter den Linden etc. Effectively, I could do vfr of walks I did when there. Or as a train sim buff, follow the route of my choice. Imagine flying along Settle to Carlisle, or follow the ECML all the way up to Edinburgh Waverley station! Or Munich, following around and landing at Innsbruck!
@@rahulmaron yeah it is a plane simulator so you are supposed to fly higher, and pretty sure it will look fine around airports
I’m so excited about this, I’d been involved in FS since v2 and ran every version of it up until they dropped it. I used to participate in Microsoft focus groups back in the early 90’s. FS v2 led me into being a flight instructor for real and after I moved on into a new career it was a way for me to stay connected in some way to flying. This new one looks like what I’d always hoped flight simulators could be. I guess a new windows machine is in my future lol
MS was under the misdirection of Ballmer for 11 years if I recall. No surprise FS was killed. He set the teams against each other.
@@MrTrustdesa He negatively impacted most aspects of MS. Even MS office. Looks like Microsoft are starting to recover now he's gone.
He was definitely a joke, and yet his legacy seems a bit more complicated than that. Gates gives him a lot of credit for helping to grow Microsoft into a large company in the first place, and some of the biggest successes that Nadella is coming to be known for were apparently set into motion while Ballmer was still CEO. There could be a whole business school course on Microsoft CEOs through the years, and probably a lot of that would be focused on the early 00s Gates/Ballmer era about what _not_ to do...
@@zentriceggofficial Yub add DirectX to that..........he decided to kill of Hardware Sound in the DX Tree leading off from DX10, which cost Microsoft some of their grasp on the gaming market, because it suddenly made OpenAL popular.
The sound together with the graphics have been two core parts of DirectX's dominance, aside from the input devices.
He also made DX10 Vista only which stunted the use of DX10 from the get go, try to remember how many games used it and how many stayed on DX9 instead.
Only with DX11 DX really took off again, but it's not the powerhouse that it used to be, and it has some strong limitations, like the fact that a DirectX Device is limited to 8 axis and 32 Buttons...........which means that with devices like the HOTAS Cougar, you can run into problems..... ;)
Mysterious MrX Steve is a hard driving salesman and a very fun guy at parties. He should never have been running the company.
Microsoft should be really proud of this
They should, but they are not the developers of the game; they merely publish it under their name and provide the real developers, Asobo Studio (based in Bordeaux, France), with software tools like Azure AI and Bing Maps data (oblique ortho photos). Asobo are the team that deserve the most praise. They seem to come out of nowhere...not having done any serious simulation titles before, as far as I know.
MrTrustUK considering all the amazing new technologies working in harmony with each other, yeah It’s an achievement
@@MrTrustdesa Yes, they should.
@@sixpackpilot That's true but the money is coming from Microsoft, without their money we wouldn't see this game.

Superb work Microsoft. I loved the series all my life. Spectacular news. Guess I'll have to start saving for a new machine and some Tri or Quad sli setup
“VR will not be in it at the launch, but maybe later.”
Man... I hope this “maybe” will become a certainly. This just looks so beautiful.
+1 to this. I have absolutely zero interest in flight sim on a monitor. Unless/until is has VR support, I will watch from the sidelines.
@@AviationAstro Check out FlyInside FSX, it's a VR plugin for FSX and it works decently well, with a few minor bugs
True. Simulators without solid VR support are pretty much next to useless nowadays...
@@AirwolfPL I went to VR in FSX with FlyInside FSX and I could never play on a screen again

@@ark9823 I'm scared for my 10 Mbps download speed.
I expect that this will require 32gb of ram to even run maybe more
Not sure why everyone seems so worried about it when it's been explained repeatedly that it's using pre-cached data, along with dynamic streaming, to generate the bulk of the visual elements. If you've got a mid-range gaming PC and a good internet connection, you should be fine. Also, keep in mind that this will be running on the Xbox One... again, I think most people will be fine.

2020 is going the be the flight sim year that i've been waiting 30 years for.
Bart De Reu we’ve gone from wireframes to this in 30 years
Not gonna lie I thought that in 03 with Century of Flight. But this is tenfold
@@SawdEndymon
Graphics of MS FS in 1989 was not wireframes. Even original SubLogic FS II (which MS FS was based on) wasn't fireframes and that was in 1983. I know. I played it on C64.
@@TheUglyGnome Still have the SubLogic Package in my Shelf... but this one is the one i was dreaming of back in 1985 (when I was old enough).
Just amazing. Spotted an alpha bug at 29:36 - look at the nosewheel on touchdown - the tyre smoke goes forwards.....
The back wheels do the same thing.
Tailwind.
@@sleepy399 I would think unless you have a massive tailwind...the plane is still landing at a speed that would outrun the wind blowing the smoke...
Wow, good eye!
TBH this was the best game to be shown at E3 2019.
Sims and 'games', not quite the same thing.
games have a goal simulation does not have one. If you make a goal in a sim, the game is still not a sim
@Bounze , I have fun while flying, too. But I don't think of it as a game, per se...
Because it's played for mortal stakes.
The great value in this level of simulation is that procedures, navigation, and IFR flight may all be practiced without the risk of mortality inherent with actual flight.
Flying is fun, to be sure...whether it's simulated or actual...but this is head and shoulders above even a typical flying 'game'...
🛩🛩🛩🛩🛩
@Akira Its a sim.
Sadly yes, it looks great, but otherwise man was E3-19 a letdown.
Gosh!! I'm old school and remember the very first FS, and thru the years I've wondered would we ever see or be able to fly in an almost real environment, where what we see is what is ther. This certainly is as close as it can get I feel. Blown away, can't wait! Might be time to drag out the old 737 cockpit if the moths haven't chewed it up :) But then that'd be a nice reason to rebuild :) I actualy learn electronics so I could built my interfaces to rotaries etc. This is hyper, I am hyper !
Oh no... It'll still get even BETTER... Will just take a few more years! As for 'full cockpits', they're really being pushed as well... ua-cam.com/video/k7oAUOR1dJ0/v-deo.html
OMG.. unbelievably real.. I'm a pilot and this is mind blowing. Great review. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
First time viewer, long time sim wanna be! That was the best 32+ minutes to see what MS has done over these 25+ years. I was a Flight Sim advocate in the earliest days but could never get the things I thought I needed to have to make it work. Now, I am planning a cockpit build and because of this Preview of the MS Flight Sim 2020, I will be buying that software and using it on my new platform. Thanks Froogle. Wish I could understand the "Lingo" better, and probably will have to learn but the scenery and atmospherics were stunning! Real Life Images. Photographic quality beyond anything I have ever seen in a flight simulation program. Well Done Microsoft! Thanks Froogle. Lots more to watch of your videos.
Great to hear someone say "I was wrong" It shows character and maturity. Quality video and your comments were really interesting.
Absolutely. And well deserved enormous viewing figures.
@Gunther Fenz To be fair, I think most of us were at least a little skeptical when it was first announced.
This is the first sim where gameplay actually looks like whats in the trailer
I was so done of all the addons and all the endless tweaking to achieve 20% of this video that I stopped playing. I cant wait to start flying again!
Agree, dealing with bugs in the add ins were a pain.
Flight Sim has always been more like a Model Train set than a playable experience. Every hour of play is 10 hours of fiddling with stuff.
Michael Zaite 😂
True, you tweak more than u you play
@@surfshop7552 And you don't even get the benefit of a glue high.
Love the way the cars on the roads just pummel into each-other lol
Froogle, a lot of us flightsimmers rely heavily on you and your evaluation of available products. You did an especially good job on this one, and I think we join you in a your excitement for the new platform. Well done!
as someone who was there from the start of flight sim, we have come along way, I stopped flying a few years ago when fsx was left behind for other sim and all my scenery wasn't upgraded. I hope this is a start of new world of real flight without the endless purchases of new scenery
We’re looking at this now thinking “And back in the day we used to be content with FSX.” In 20 years time we’ll be plugging a flight simulator into our brains, allowing us to see, hear, touch, smell, taste, and feel the moment of the aircraft we’re flying, and think “And we used to be content with MSFS 2020.”
Used to be content with FS 4.0... ;)
how will crashing feel?
taste
@@matthewrease2376 with access to our central nervous system we could even feel our bones breaking without it happening! Talk about motivation to fly correctly!
If you're correct, add another 80 years to your 20
this looks absolutely beautiful, I'm glade they finally updated the game. Hopefully my Computer can read this cuz its crap
Wow simply amazing if it actually delivers this is a game changer.
It's so damn beautiful. And I couldn't be happier to hear that they are focusing on the hardcore real-world simulation aspects in this version.
What about ATC? For me, realistic ATC would greatly add to the immersion...
I could not agree more. As a low time time pilot that doesn’t regularly fly out of towered airports, ATC com is easily my most perishable skill. And VATSim and PilotEdge just don’t hav enough coverage.
And I agree, ATC is a perfect application for AI.
Not an issue at all, simply join Vatsim. You get real people doing ATC. And it is free. You cant beat that.
my biggest question as well right now
Too early still. It's coming.
Join VATSIM
I will spend 100s of hours in the bush planes flying low and slow, landing at every nice hill, beach, strip I see. This will completely change the game.
I'm completely with you on that!!
You can land ANYWEAR
I too prefer flying low and slow. I think in a sim like this we'll have an advantage because the sim will not need to assemble such a huge world as it would with those that prefer the heavy metal birds.
No VR though? Hmmm. What century is this?
And I hope I hope I hope all I have to do to soar in a sailplane is add one in and fly. I hope thermals are accurately modeled.
@@JELB1960 The FS2020 team initially was not working on VR, but then a lot of people requested it. They have since made a statement that although VR capabilities might not be in the game upon release, FS2020 will have VR as a very high priority, and they are working on it.
@@TappingTV To me it is incredible, and a bit worrying, that they had to wait until the community protested to realize that, just like their sim will be a game changer, so too is flying in VR.
To bring that level of detail to the world, all in the name of immersion / realism, while ignoring VR, boggles my mind a bit.
Graphics are at a whole new level, I think this is the first time we see a entire world with this kind of graphics, insta buy for me
Yeah, I'm blown away. Just incredible.
The real test is the geo atmosphere test, if your taking off from lets say Miami and landing in Newyork, will the scenery still make me feel like I have only traveled 10 miles away? or will I be saying to myself, wow, the place I just landed looks and feels different. So the location itself will have different atmospheres depending on where you are going.
@@lovejetfuel4071 did you not watch the video or you weren't listening. Lol yes it will feel different. Different places have different weather patterns.
My 2080ti says, "bring it on!", but my 10Mbps internet connection says, "hey, don't blame me, you chose to move to the country."
Same! 😂
Actually you should be fine. Google maps with the satellite imagery works on 3G connections in a middle of nowhere for me. 3D models + textures + GIS data is nowhere as heavy in terms of bandwidth requirements as video streaming.
@@OlegLecinsky I think I know what they're doing. I used to have a mod with my FSX that would stream Google maps textures onto the world mesh while I flew around. It looked beautiful, especially when at a higher altitude. But even with a 50Mbps connection, if I flew too fast or too low, I could "overfly" the detailed textures and it would "blur out". Now I live in the sticks and have a 10Mbps connection. I might be ok in a Cessna or a glider. 😂
@@ZorinInc There is a difference between a mod using 3rd party data and an actual game engine which is easier to optimize by preloading the tiles adjacent to the the ones you're in in the direction you're flying to. Of course it's all just a talk of two people out of their asses, but being someone who worked with GIS data (I'm a software developer myself) I think making this work on a 10Mbps connection w/o too many issues can be done. When it comes to speed at which you move, it's more about latency then bandwidth.
My 1050Ti and my less than 10Mbps connection cry in the corner and have me questioning my career choices:-D. Perhaps I should become a pilot instead.
That is absolutely stunning. I'm out of words.

you are probably my favorite person ive heard talk about fs 2020, everyone else is just taking everything microsoft says as gospel and being amazed with the footage, your the first person ive seen to actually think about this stuff in the context of microsoft and the previous flight sims, and the first person to not just believe everything the promotional material says.
if more people went about hype the way you do the videogame market would be a much better place
Me: Permission to crash into my house?
Airforceproud95: Uh, that is approved as requested, bOsSmAn.
At this stage, I might as well just get my pilot’s license.
Of course, it'll cost you a lot more than your computer, fast Internet connection, and the game ever will... :)

Actually, I found real flying easier than FSX. Mainly because of the all round visual and sensations. But spending 100s of hours on FSX was a big help in flying for real.
Unfortunately my graphics card had a panic attack while watching this and I've had to get it counseling sessions.
My pc sprouted arms and legs and ran out of the house screaming.

Sadly, flying in South Africa, or Africa was always somewhat left to your own imagination in any known sim. I really hope that MSFS 2020 would at last do something to make the flying experience here a bit more realistic.
If it's using Bing maps then it should be pretty good. The coverage in SA is pretty detailed.
One of my main goals with MSFS 2020 is to deeply familiarize myself with a lot of remote locations.
Of course buzzing Mount Everest will be one of my first flights, but man alive thinking about touring the entire globe in this game has my imagination running at mach 2.
I'm interested in how they'll handle Yemen, Libya and Syria, as the data on regions with active wars tends to be far worse. I'm not familiar with Bing maps but Google maps are about 2 years out of date on Libya, 3ish years off on Yemen, and most of Syria is now coming on 9 years of being out of date.
@@thepinkplushie Remember, this isn't driving maps, these are satellite imagery. Now, it's possible that they haven't bothered to do much work there. But there's no reason to assume that they won't have anything there at all. Now, that doesn't mean that it will be perfect (yet, and I actually think this is a GREAT sign). One previewer mentioned that they went to Egypt, then found a weird forest of brown autumn-like deciduous trees covering the desert, because the ML had misinterpreted the Dunes.
That's an error, but HOW COOL IS THAT? The fact that their simulation and AI are good enough to get MOST of the world right without ever touching that information manually is a incredibly impressive. And they'll do more testing (and people will find more weird stuff after it releases XD) as the development continues.
@@Cyrribrae Exactly why I'm so excited to see what it comes up with for war-torn regions. Even if it messes up I'm sure it will be fascinating to dissect why and how.
For example the AI might only place down pristine buildings with damage textures painted over (if that), which could be really interesting. Cities like Idlib or Raqqa that were almost completely flattened might be viewable in a much better state. Or if the engine can handle damage, seeing an accurate simulation of war torn regions could be a great educational or research tool.
The possibilities of this engine far exceed just aircraft simulation.
Imagine how pissed all the other Flight Simulator developers and companies are right now.
They won't be at all !
I just hope they make a realistic combat addon, I'm tired of the 9nly "modern" air combat game on the market being DCS
@@kazansky22 It's not that kind of game.
@@CasperTheGhost64 from the sound of it, with the right add ons it could be
@@CasperTheGhost64 it's a simulator. Combat just means simulating a bunch of systems that are in combat aircraft.
Wow! What a turnaround! Glad to see that you kept an open mind.
12:32 those 2 cars in the roundabout just ran into one another
also the vehicles at 8:55 out the left window
I noticed that too but it's pre-alpha so that's expected
I wasn't going to comment on this until I realized that I wasn't the only person to see that...
This game probably wouldn’t hold up to scrutiny when viewed up close
They were playing fried chicken - no winner and no chicken dinner just fried cars and passengers
Damn, it still amazes me how much the graphics took off from the 2000s onwards.
No pun intend.
More like mid 90s
Well, you also have to consider exactly what they had to work with. Flying ain't much fun at 14 frames per second! ;)
Damn, this is going to be big... with a lot of real world training potential here. Flying a route VFR with this sort of terrain and objects will be a game changer for student training.
I hope the helicopters that will come later will fly nice as well.
Every 6 months, for the last 12 years I have Googled for news about a new Microsoft flight sim and always the same disappointing result. Dead and buried. I searched 2 months ago for news and nothing still nothing new. Finding this video this morning has simply made my decade!
"No, and if you don't believe us - fly somewhere else." the balls on those guys
Really looking forward to muting a new menu song after it immediately gets stuck in my head.
11:25 THAT'S LITERALLY DIRECTLY OVER MY HOUSE IN BOSTON OMG
you know I was thinking the same thing only it was my work office...
I could see the car wrecks in the front yard!!
That's crazy
I'm gonna find you.
6:51 - 7:51 KRKD, My stomping ground! Looked pretty good although airport buildings were a little sparse. But, it IS just a pre-Alpha video.
My favorite part of this video is seeing every single version represented.I flew my first simulator on a friggin Timex Sinclair with 2K onboard memory. 2020 is boggling!!!
You didn't spring for the 16K RAM pack? And you call yourself a simmer. *scoffs*
The SIM does look visually stunning, I literally can't wait for this to come out.
Did anyone ask about AI and ATC ? Would be cool if we had something like what vox atc does.
From a question that someone else asked (that I heard on reddit), they don't have plans to have simulated ATC at launch due to its additional complexity. They've confirmed that they are going to render live boat traffic using publicly-available navigation data, so hopefully that means they can do the same for AI plane traffic using something like Flightradar24.
@@TROPtastic OK, thanks for letting me know.
Wow. Just WOW. Those C182 footage, for moments I couldn't even tell if it's real world or not. This is how the next gen flight sim should be. Please keep it up MS!

Must be part of "MFS is a work in progress". Duh.............
Left lane turns right, right lane turns left. Hmm.... Microsoft road rules are interesting.
@@lancearn7332 It's Bing Maps vector roads source data (used to build the autogen in FS2020) Road vectors don't have to be accurate (to get displayed on a map, either in a webpage or phone app), what matters is the paths are close enough to get blended in a single roadtrack when displayed. The right road turns left and the left one turns right to avoid having a "seam" like a "hole" at the crossroad (when displayed on a map, it's not a roundabout)
I started on the Apple 2 version back in the 80s. It seems to have improved slightly since then, especially if you look closely.
LOL. Same here ,-)
I might have missed this : How is the ATC. I think this new simulator looks fantastic. I can be happy with Track IR until VR comes of age.
I don't know why I stumbled across this video, however, I'm glad I did.
Something that caught my eye is that there are moving cars in the roads. Not a lot, or too detailed, but adds into the simulation. They must be identifying what's a road from the map data and add the moving cars on top. That's awesome!
Actually, the roads are vector datas for Bing Maps, already available years ago (even decades), they are divided in 3 categories "major", "medium" and "minor". I assume only "major" roads have autogenerated cars and as seen in the video, the cars only spawn at the start of a path and disappear at the end of it.
Years ago, there were peoples actually hand tracing the road on top of satellite imagery in a dedicated software (like Google Earth Pro as of today), either hired for the job (obviously for major countries in America or Europe) or doing it for free, on lesser known areas of the world (like a country named Botswana). Then AI learned to identify roads and railroad tracks (among other kind of land marks), but human inputs are still required for some datas, like very complex crossroads or roads hidden below treetops.
Some vector roads datas were included first in FSX (for highways in the USA and some european major cities), then in P3D (I know nothing about XPlane). Just to point out it was already available since the FS98 era, but not used in aircraft simulators until FSX ; now you'll obviously have it on FS2020 aswell. :)
But don't expect every single road to have moving cars, nor follow one on an highway and expect it to drive you somewhere for several minutes. FSX animation is based on a ~56 seconds keyframed animation (18 ticks per sec for a total of 1024 keyframes), unless the animation is binary tweaked to jump to custom keyframes. If it's the old FSX animation engine, it won't probably exceed 56 sec of track following, then loop back to the start and repeat endlessly (or conditionnally based on time of day). I deeply hope they've changed that aswell, but I don't think they did because it's primarly an aircraft simulator, implementing road traffic is... as complex as taxiing and flying aircraft traffic but with thousand of time much more nodes (crossroads), and you must take account of road direction, number of lanes, lane change... those datas are NOT available for all major roads around the world, not even close to have all of them in the USA alone (which would take at least 200Mb of extra vector data to download in the vinicity of a large city. I guess they would prioritize land surface type like grass/mud/pine forest/residential/etc. over roads direction and crossroads connexions)
Awwww. Screw what I said about "only major roads would have autogenerated cars"... Didn't see the two buses on a minor road, obviously... Yeah ! Good job Microsoft (or the french company) ! Even though the buses were kind of crashing one in the other, that's a minor detail. :)
Everyone: This looks amazing!
Me: But can I ram my house?
Rams house.
Actually dies.
Profit?

It took 30 years to get from wireframes to this

Q: What pc build could run this in max settings 60+ fps and in 4k?
A: No.
NASA supercomputer.
Ain't that how it always works? Just like those classic 90's versions of MSFS. Only at NASA HQ! LOL
non
I'll be able to play it on my PC. I don't have 4K yet, but with what I have now, I will be able to play it just fine.
I can render music, and movies on max settings, so this sim will work great.
NAH i think there is a desktop computer that can run that. NVIDIA DGX-1

Wow, after reading these comments I think it is safe too say we are stoked.
Bring on Microsoft Flight simulator 2020!
This footage is so gorgeous. I could watch this for hours all day every day!

@Giorgio Mumda LOL. I'm not making spaceships out of chocolate foil.
EARTH IS FLAT, NO PROOF OF CURVATURE EVER WITNESSED!
I can not wait for this. Being from Florida the opening demo of the video was flying over downtown Orlando and then Epcot. As soon as I saw it I was like no way. This looks just amazing
I'm looking over to the shelf where my flight yoke and pedals are covered in dust. The first maneuver I'll try is a hammerhead stall, something the old simulators couldn't do because they didn't simulate the propeller wash over the rudder.
Donald MacLeay X plane 11 should be able to do that :)
DCS can do it in the Christian Eagle.
@@mzaite
Well its DCS :)
@@paulw6949 True, you get what you pay for with the Digital Combat lighting Simulator.

I do wonder tho if the DCS warbirds can do it too- they should, but they're older...

Sounds amazing. Any questions about seasons? I presume with that complex weather system there, is but I’ve not seen any videos or screenshots that don’t look like the same time of year.
Wow. This looks incredable.
And I'm gonna need a new PC.
Normal, not gaming PC (exists).
FS2020: “Am I a joke to you?”
My hardware requires me to run xplane on low settings and i still get low fps. Im getting this no matter what and ill accept whatever fps i get. I planned on getting a slightly better used cpu and gpu anyways
I am stuck with an FX6300. FSX alone brings it to its knees.
I will need a new PC.
I too need to upgrade my PC, but for this I first need to know how efficiently it can spread CPU workload over multiple cores and balance the workload between CPU and GPU. If it is anything like X-plane, or - heaven forbid - FSX or P3D, you are better off buying a powerful Intel CPU (high clockspeed, 5GHz, 9700K or 9900K), that (still) excels at single core performance. If it is very good at spreading workload over many cores, and can deal with AMD's CPU architecture, their new Ryzen 7 3000-series (esp. 3700x/3900x), that pack more cores for less money than Intel, than AMD is a sure winner. For some reason X-plane still does not seem to like AMD CPUs or GPUs, when compared with similar priced Intel and nVidia products. I hope this is not the case with the new MSFS.
In any case, you still want as powerful a system as you can afford, especially because the physics realism, or rather physics resolution (how realistically the plane behaves in the air) is now dependent on your framerate (adaptive time set @ 12:20 ) . So the more (CPU/GPU) power you have in your system, the more detailed the flight model becomes. That can become important if you are in dynamic weather, doing stuntflying (edge of flight envelope), or fly gliders (super sensitive controls, thermals, etc.). I can't wait.
Just wait for the specsheet to come out
Awesome. It's coming August 18th, MS is taking preorders with 3 different packages available. The most expensive option is $120.00, which is frankly still a lot cheaper than X-Plane with detailed add-on airports and planes. Good job MS.

GTX2080 arent really better for 1080p 60Hz gameplay. Its the same hardware beside a few tricks for 4K 144Hz and Ray tracing, new AA and thats it.
The same as any other AAA game nowaday with open simulated world or some Indie genre optimised game, as it will implement natively DX11, multiprocessing, multicore and GPU - what FSX lacked the most as it was unfinished and P3D just bugfixed it till today with 64bit and better hardware support.

@Eise Trompetter are you for shure...
@Eise Trompetter They wish...but, until then, they could still vastly push the level of graphics details past what GTA V currently offers:
- Greater draw distance (many items still pop in to view even on a beefy computer);
- Better particle/weather/astronomical effects:
--- E.g. dust layers that aren't just semi-transluscent textures to mimic, well, dust,
--- Snow could be a random effect rather than something confined to certain scenarios,
--- a Moon that a/ isn't bigger than the Sun and b/ could go through different cycles (namely a full moon that would light up areas not affect by light pollution)--and pitch black nights would be pitch black;
- Better soft body, hair and clothes physics;
- RTX...
