De lovar att de inte skall skära ner på simuleringsbiten. Hoppingivande - vi får se.
Kan inte nån sammanfatta lite hastigt? Moonlight != Silverlight, min fina linux-chromium vill inte visa annat är färgade lådor på den där sidan. Finns det nåt mer spännande än som visas i den här filmen?
**NEW** Microsoft Flight Screenshots RELEASED!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPCMaAsdD2E#ws)
Jag får en klump i halsen av att varken X-plane eller den här, som den ser ut nu iaf, verkar ha varit i närheten av nån som sett en riktig skog. Hur svårt ska det vara? Hellre träd än fiskmåsar!
Vad stod det på paketet du rökte, Mupp? Det var ju finfina bilder juh.

Wednesday, December 8, 2010 ââ,¬â€ Welcome to News from the Development Team!
Welcome! Weââ,¬â,,¢ve created this section to provide news and updates direct from the Microsoft Flight development team. Weââ,¬â,,¢ve been getting all your emails and comments and are creating this central point of contact to respond to your questions. Currently, weââ,¬â,,¢re still early in the development process, so there are many things not yet ready for detailed discussion. Weââ,¬â,,¢ll address what we can for now and will provide more in-depth information over time.
Since the very first introduction to Microsoft Flight at Gamescom back in August 2010, weââ,¬â,,¢ve received a tremendous response from both new and longtime Flight Simulator fans. We truly appreciate the warm welcome back. For this inaugural ââ,¬Å"News from the Development Teamââ,¬Â update, we want to give you some context for our new direction. For starters, weââ,¬â,,¢re still some time away from launching the product ââ,¬â€ far enough out that we are currently unable to provide any details, such as the launch date. We apologize for any frustrations this may cause. We canââ,¬â,,¢t wait, either, to deliver this new experience to all of you! Weââ,¬â,,¢re delighted to be able to provide a view into our game at such an early time and to share our progress as we get closer to finalizing the product. Weââ,¬â,,¢ve never reached out this early in the development cycle before, so hang in there, and we hope you enjoy the sneak peek.
A number of you have asked, ââ,¬Å"Why did you drop ââ,¬ËœSimulatorââ,¬â,,¢ from the title of the game?ââ,¬Â
In addition to the FAQ on this topic, we want to directly address the concern that by dropping the ââ,¬Å"Simulatorââ,¬Â from the name, weââ,¬â,,¢re dumbing down the experience. Quite the contrary! Weââ,¬â,,¢ve developed on the ââ,¬Å"simulationââ,¬Â aspect for many years and have no intention of losing that legacy. What weââ,¬â,,¢re doing now is improving the total experience while building on this legacy, enhancing the enjoyment for all who share a passion for flight. The more people who join us in the Flight experience, the greater the opportunity weââ,¬â,,¢ll have to do even more.
Many of you are concerned that because we want to appeal to a wider audience, we must be building an arcade game.
We donââ,¬â,,¢t need to create an arcade game to welcome a wider audience. But we do need to improve the total user experience if weââ,¬â,,¢re to be successful in welcoming new audiences into the experience of Flight. The passion and fascination of flight is powerful, with so many different aspects to aviation and different levels of enjoyment to experience. There is distinct value and strength to be gained by welcoming a wider audience, and we canââ,¬â,,¢t claim to have done the best job of it in the past.
What does appealing to a wider audience mean?
It means improving the user-interface experience, achieving better performance on todayââ,¬â,,¢s hardware, providing more focused challenges for people who arenââ,¬â,,¢t quite sure what to do next, and introducing more persistent experiences for people who return often. It also means keeping alive the freedom to go where you want, when you want, and to do what you want. Regardless of their hardware power, piloting experience, or level of interest, many people have enjoyed the traditional flight-simulation experience as a solitary activity. We see a compelling social aspect to the experience inherent in the fun, and we need to better enable and support this dynamic to strengthen the entire Flight experience for everyone.
Based on the previous webisode, weââ,¬â,,¢ve heard, ââ,¬Å"This doesnââ,¬â,,¢t look any different from FSX!ââ,¬Â
As we said in the introduction, weââ,¬â,,¢re still early in the development cycle, so the fact that you comment on the similarity to FSX is great! This comment alone should ease some of the arcade concerns. Please follow along with our progress as we continue to release more webisodes, screenshots, and additional information. In the end, we hope that youââ,¬â,,¢ll have a great time looking back at these early samples and being part of the evolution. Thank you for all your enthusiasm and support!

Mycket lovande :)
Det är ju bra att dom inte tänker släppa på simulatorbiten. Det hoppas jag att dom inte ljuger om.

Här röks inget från några fancy-pants-paket, här kommer allt i små plastpåsar. Om det är bilderna i filmen du menar så visst, dom är fina. Några saker visar dom ju på som inte finns i FSX idag. Men man brallar väl inte på sig? Jag vill ha revolution, inte evolution i Darwin-tempo. Skogar har jag stört mig på länge. Sverige är tamefan glesare än ett kalhygge i både FSX och X-plane, och marktexturer och mesh så trista att helikopterturer blir tråkiga fort. Jag är cynisk nog att tro att det där inte ändrar så mycket.
Jag får känslan av det är samma människa som tagit screenshots som brukar ta bilder till lägenhetsannonser. Några enkla knep bara, halvhög höjd, solen på rätt ställe, lätt sväng, skum vinkel, perfekt! Skitsnyggt! Men, FSX och tom X-plane ser ju bra ut med dom knepen också. Det händer ju inget ju.
Kolla Outerra-filmen när dom åker runt och lallar med en Apache. Dom har gjort golfgreen av hela planeten, och varenda jävla träd ser exakt likadant ut! Men likförbannat ser det otroligt mycket mer medryckande ut än allt som MS och Laminar har spottat ur sig. Dom har sparkat bollen i rätt riktning tycker jag.
Haha, man blir glad av att läsa dina inlägg, herr Mupp.
Glad?!? Vafan, här sitter jag och är arg!
När jag flyger civila simulatorer numera så har jag nästan alltid lagt på en molnbas på 150-500 fot så jag bryr mig inte om grafiken ;)

Ja men det är väl skönt att du kan göra någon glad med din ilska? :) Du får nog bra karma då tror jag.
