Another bloke from Downunder here,
I have to concur with MAD1 re the cost and capability of the modern hardware as it relates to flight sims.It seems we have Microsoft developing a sim that is stretching even high end gear and the hardware guys piling on to develop cards etc to meet that new sim and blowing the prices to hell. I am fully aware of "progress and development" etc.but do get a little bemused at the arrogance of MS and the new flight sim.It appears to be half baked as a complete product with a lot of home based computers unable to run it at an enjoyable level.
I reckon one day they (devs and manufacturers) might learn that most of us in Flight Simming community are not interested in the latest, biggest, ballsiest set up.. We just want a reasonable, reliable set up so we can enjoy our hobby and fly ,not fiddle endlessly with programs and machinery that really should not be considered "fit for purpose" until further development is performed.
Just my random thoughts.
Now back to flying. Cheers, suncoast. P.S. All the best for 2021.
