    El PC se sobrecalienta a niveles muy altos, teniendo una 2080 ti y un i7, no puedo correrlo ni a 60 fps. El Port de este juego es más cutre que el del gta IV. Parece un juego de 2006, literalmente. Con estar a 10 km ya se nota que la calidad de un edificio es bazofia. Después de haber venido del The Last of Us Parte II, este juego (gráficamente) es como dar limonada a un perro. Un 0 merecido.

    This is the best simulator for many years. It is great in so many ways, and well worth paying the $50 for the basic package. I cannot stress how USA centric this is though, as the majority of photorealistic cities are in the USA. Even FSX had high def bumpmapping and scenery in the USA, and the rest of the world was lower quality, much lower lol.

I cannot stress how USA centric this is though, as the majority of photorealistic cities are in the USA. Even FSX had high def bumpmapping and scenery in the USA, and the rest of the world was lower quality, much lower lol.

    As for flight controls, I have Thrustmaster throttle and joystick and they are seen, setup fine, and work very well. The game has sensitivity controls, and over 5 pages of A4 needed to print out the keyboard assignements. One downside is that 2 of those pages are for camera controls, and there is no replay!! It also strikes me as strange that the "fasten seat belts" switch is disabled!! It is one massive part of any pretend Captains flight to turn it off and on again - so strange how they left that out.

    I cannot help but feel sorry for those who had issues in the first week, but the truth is that many issues will be fixed, and fairly quickly. FSX was 15 years old this year, and I have been using it all those 15 years and had fun with it, it worked out to £3 a year. If this one keeps going for 10 years, it's going to be worth it.

    The real shame is the downside of modern-day DLC and payware addons. I expect my flight sim to be more complete than this, with at least 2 helicopters, and all the functions of FSX in this one - so to find that the A321 in FSX has more functionality than this one's A320 was disappointing.

    The upside is the community. Already there is a 2GB livery pack, and the A32NX project is restoring the functions of the A320 MFD for free. We already have some new airports released for free and utilities as well. It's not all pay to play. I am annoyed that Microsoft appear to be releasing helicopters as a DLC that we will have to pay for, I already forked out a small fortune for the Premium package, and I really think we should get two helicopters for free. Similarly there is no float/sea plane, and that also is a bit off.

    The scenery, graphics and AI are pretty high quality though, and flying at night and across scenery in the daytime is pretty damn amazing. It's great. it has some bugs, but they will hopefully be addressed in time. I have read reports that tell you the flight characteristics aren't real, I flew a Cessna 152 in real life, and I can tell you it was pretty realistic. I have read people saying "you shouldn't be able to fly upside down!!" - You know what? I don't care. I used to use FSX for training between flights in the real 152, and this one is 10 times more realistic thatn FSX. I have also wathced and lsitened to several real-world airline pilots flying the A320neo in the sim, and they are saying it's pretty realistic, so I think we have to say that it is more than 75% realistic, and at the end of the day, that's good enough for most people.

    When you try to model 110,000 airports around the whole of the world, even 0.5% is going to be a large NUMBER of mistakes = 550 ... The thing is, some of the mistakes are simple, and some are complex. There are some things missing, and there are a few simple mistakes --- I find it hard to believe that no one noticed the blue taxi arrows point the wrong way and lead you into a field instead of onto the runway, that sort of thing should have been fixed during alpha and beta testing.

    Overall, it will only be worth the money if we get fixes and addons for free that fix the flight planning limitations, and the lack of aircraft. The community will soon begin releasing more and more freeware, the FA/18 came out this week, and the livery pack is at 2.12GB, so in six months I think we will have so many addons we will be in a better position to say whether or not it was worth the money. Currently, buy the basic and don't wate your money buying the premium - it just is not worth the extra cash.

    Why have I given it 10 stars? Because I have spent at least 2 hours a day flying around, and smiled every time I think about flying it, every time I fly in it, and every time I start it I get excited.    … Expand

    Being able to explore the earth at a 1 to 1 scale is an incredibly thrilling experience that'll excite any person with an inner explorer. Along with truly realistic flight simulation experience that'll make any real world pilot wow with astonishment. It does have a few technical hiccups but which can be easily fleshed out in the future. Overall this game is a must play for our generation.

    Originally    Was widely looking forward to this game, but biggest PC gaming disappointment of the year so far fore me. Release seems to have been rushed in order to take advantage of the spike in video game sales during covid-19, and/or with misleading system requirements. Game hard crashes my PC almost every single time that I play it, almost always on the pre-flight loading screen.

    Originally purchased the game on Steam, got a refund after multiple crashes, then got it on Xbox Game Pass but still have the same problem. The installer for this is terrible, I might add. I have tried all recommended troubleshooting options; I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple times (which takes minimum 3 hours each time). I have turned off all background applications, updated my GPU driver, updated Windows, updated the Microsoft Store app, uninstalled and reinstalled Windows Visual C++, performed Cleanboot, turned off antivirus and firewall, and disabled all third-party applications. I have installed the game on a SSD. I have an overlocked Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070, an AMD Ryzen 7 2700X, and 16GB of RAM, but I'm unable to play this game even on LOW-END settings without it crashing. If I turn off online functionality, the graphics look worse than a Nintendo 64 game, and it still crashes sometimes. I definitely would not recommend, unless you're looking for hours of aggravation, OR if you insist on trying your luck, wait until several patches have been released.

    [To Microsoft and Asobo Studios]: Please don't list a GTX 970 as fulfilling your official "recommended" system requirements, only to release a game that apparently can only run if you have two SLI-compatible GeForce 2080tis on your rig. Thanks.    … Expand

    REALISM?: Here is the most important aspect because it is the simulator - nit the GTA!!!
    To be honest it sucks hard. I will not go into details because I would have to write a book, but in comparable the A2A, PMDG or even FlightOne or Carenado, those defaults planes are a joke.

    Reasuming this product is nice graphic simulator game and to abtain status of real simulator like x-plane or P3D, users again will have to spent hundreds or thousands $$$ for addons to make it REAL!!!    … Expand

Also for all the potential steam users thinking of buying this disgusting cash grab, just know that they have an "anti" refund policy which includes downloading a 500MB launcher on steam which you are supposed to download the game in, and bear in mind this download is counted as playtime which means no refund for you buddy, though there is a way to refund this garbage and it is making a support ticket with steam and explaining the situation and they will be glad to give your money back to you and if all else fails then just do a Paypal chargeback or credit card chargeback :)… Expand

The game introduces amazing features such as satellite data that maps out every building and gives accurate weather settings which truly is a breakthrough for simulation games, and since this technology is new if you get close to any of the actual buildings you realise that they look nothing like they do with real life, however, Microsoft Flight Sim devs have said they have plans to fully model buildings in certain areas. This is really good news but that isn't the biggest problem as playing the game on an RTX 2080 ti the game struggles to get 20 fps in dense areas on low end settings, and from what i have seen i am not the only one who experiences this issue. The game is £60 on steam which is pretty steep and could make you particularly disappointed to finally finish downloading this game and trying it out just to realise it was pointless as it barely runs. Luckily, this game is out on the xbox game pass so you can try it out for £1 for the first month so you can see if the game is for you.… Expand

    Unbelievable graphical fidelity, fused with fantastic flight controls that have an unbelievable amount of depth to it. The only problem is like real life it’ll take a long time to master.

The world is on anotherUnbelievable graphical fidelity, fused with fantastic flight controls that have an unbelievable amount of depth to it. The only problem is like real life it’ll take a long time to master. You can however get flying in any plane after the tutorial missions with relative ease. But it’ll take longer to learn how to set you own waypoints in the cockpit before take off. The world is on another level in terms of detail and realism to anything that came before. Even if certain lesser known areas are a little rougher than there hand build counterparts. We are talking about fitting a too scale planet Earth here. Which has never been done before. There is a steep learning curve to start off with but eases with practice. As someone who’s always wanted to fly this is the next best thing. You must come into this game without any preconceptions that it is a game, it’s not it’s a sim! There are no missions per say it’s a sandbox where you can fly anywhere! But there are definitely going to be updates allowing for more game mechanics such as missions and maybe careers etc. You can play Microsoft Flight Sim one most modern gaming laptops. I originally installed on an older laptop with a Nvidia GTX 980M and a Intel i7- 6700HQ and 24GB RAM and it could run the game and medium to some high settings. But struggled with frame rates at higher settings. Which is understandable as this is new ground in technology we’re talking. So I went and got myself an upgrade and bought a new laptop with a desktop quality Nvidia RTX 2080 and i7-9750 and the difference in quality is astonishing with it running Ultra settings at buttery smooth frame rates the majority of the time.… Expand

The things you would get in this sim such as a fully function VFR display around the world, a great amount of high quality aircraft, Nav data and real world traffic come with this sim for $60. If this were FSX or XP11, everything would be about $2,000. This sim is praised for it's outstanding visuals, but the audio is just fantastic as well. Asobo has also taken a step up in physics by using the environment to effect aircraft movement. However, this sim is very demanding on hardware which is expected since it looks so good and is really next gen. This sim is for avid enthusiast like myself and for those that want to fly for fun. Even with autogen areas, you will be able to recognize areas you've been to in your life. The best part is that this is just the beginning. There will be optimizations, more aircraft, helicopters, seasons, fighter jets (coming pretty close), and community developed scenery and aircraft using the SDK. This is a masterpiece and definitely a life changer for me aspiring to become an airline pilot.… Expand

    PROS :

    The game is beautiful

    CONS:

    There are some things that should not have passed the beta, I don't understand how they come through but some things are at the edge of the unaceptable :

    - For the B350, the nav panel is unusable, it's "tactil" and completly annoying, plus the normal buttons are inactive so there is only the tactil way to operate the G1000 and it just can't be done, the airplane is therefore unusable.

    - The flight model can be strange sometimes, some airplanes are too reactive, other not that much.
    The TBM900 for instance, in order to taxi, you almost need to keep the torque at more than 50% otherwise the thing won't move, I had also a drop in engine torque during take off for no reason whatsoever.

    - It seems there are similar navigation problems with the A320neo, I did not try it for the moment.

    - For VATSIM, IVAO or PILOTEDGE there is a bug that causes stutter and drop frames in the game, it seems it's on microsoft / asobo end.

    There is a LOT of general aviation aircraft, I like them but they could have find perhaps a better balance, I miss some planes like the 737 or another jet aircraft like the Learjet 45.

    I've noticed with the Cessna Citation CJ4 that sometimes the auto-pilot would do his life on its own sometimes, for instance, arriving at a VOR, it has not passed the first VOR that it already goes to the next waypoint way too early, like 5 minutes before it should have, I had to get back on manual in order to prevent the plane to completly miss a standard arrival procedure.

    The logbook and the achievements are completly bugged, my logbook does not count any take off that I have done but it counts the landings.

    For the achievements, I have unlocked achievements that I should not have, at strange moment, for instance I've unlocked the achievement for a long taxi road when I was FL200........
    I've unlocked the achievement for landing without any engine after a landing where my engines were working perfectly fine.
    Some timestamps and duration of flights are not correct with a quite large margin of error like more than 30 minutes.

    The general interface of the airplane is quite hard to deal with especially during flight when the camera and therefore the mouse move. I miss a 2D view of the cockpit like in previous FS in order to operate some systems with ease with the mouse during flight operations.

    This type of things should have come out during the alpha and beta and should have finished in the final game, especially the problems with the navigation panel of the B350 or the strange flight model of some planes sometimes.

    12/20 for the moment with all the little problems here.    … Expand

    Microsoft Flight Simulator really focuses on the third word in its title as the realism limits have been pushed by an outstanding amount, making it possible to fly over the whole planet Earth as we know it.

It is an exquisite dish for the hardcore simulator players, but if you're looking to become one, it seems that the tutorial doesn't really explain most of the tricks of the trade, so you're gonna have to do some research on your own. Still, If you just want to become a casual pilot for a few days, the basics are easy to get the hang of, and after a few lessons you will be ready to spread your wings and feel the wind in your hair.
    Don't get your hopes to high - you probably won't be able to recognise your home building from up close, and this game does not intend to make it so. This is a flight simulator, and it should be treated like one, because the scope of it is enormous and the result, just by seeing all the places from the plane's view, is astounding. I've flown over places I've never seen, like Beijing, Tokyo and Chicago and it really made me understand how big and impressive these places are. Then, I've flown to cities I've been to, like Amsterdam, Warsaw or my hometown, and if nobody had told me what these places were, I still would've been able to recognise them - the landmarks were easily recognisable and some of the parts of the city were even accurately represented by the algorithm architecture-wise. As for my hometown, a few buildings disappeared or were just a colorful stain in the grass, but it didn't make much difference, as most of them were pretty accurate shape-wise when looked at from above. The game also introduced me to many beautiful places I never knew existed like Lukla, Paro, and, above all else, Courchevel, which I definitely recommend seeing for yourself if you get an opportunity to play this game. The adjustable weather graphics makes visiting them a real pleasure to the eye. Be it sunset, sunrise, rain, snow - it all looks breathtaking.
    The game beautifully captures the thrill of flying and seeing picturesque landscapes from above, the sheer joy of being in the air. I'm not sure if it will qualify for the Game of the Year, as it really is more of an experience and a representation of what people can do with today's technology, but it undoubtedly deserves at least a honorary mention in that category, as it is the first game that has managed to recreate the whole planet Earth, at least to some extent. How many hours can be spent here depends on what kind of a player you are, but here and now, for 1$ on the Xbox Game Pass, it is extremely worth it and almost feels like a robbery on the developers.    … Expand

    I will critique this as a game - not a flight simulator. Overall this game has a lot of promise - and will undoubtedly become a GameAsAService - with already landmarks being able to be purchased. The thing that I think it lacks is a drop in mode - where you set up exactly where/how you want to start.

Overall this game has a lot of promise - and will undoubtedly become a GameAsAService - with already landmarks being able to be purchased. The thing that I think it lacks is a drop in mode - where you set up exactly where/how you want to start. And I would suggest a sight-seeing mode that allows you to just 'fly the camera' around - and they really need to be able to pin more landmarks from their Bing Map dataset. It is clearly aimed at both the flight sim and more casual users (hence the heavy streaming) but I don't think there's enough content to keep casual gamers interested. Also - for a game that focuses so much attention to "the world" then you have to accept that people will expect a basic level of realism in the places you can travel - and I wonder if such enhancements will be purchase-only (such as with XPlane 11). It's an easy way to spend your time - but I'm not sure that you will feel you have achieved much when you finished. I have a similar experience with Google Earth - great virtual tourism, but in the end, the separation from the places you're virtually visiting makes it feel coldly frustrating. Still it is a game for the times, and it may be popular for what it represents, and not what it is. As a flight simulator, it will undoubtedly be a great sandbox for wonderful (and expensive) add-on experiences.

    Pros: great concept of a 'virtual world' version of a flight sim - ambitious in scope and multiplayer aspects. This can be quite meditative in the right mood. The graphics fidelity is good in general, and it does feel great to watch the planes flying around. Yes - it does capture the magic of flight (though for most of us, it's the arriving rather than the transit that is the fun part of air travel).

    Cons: The launcher is poor - and overall main UI is poor - overly complex and unclear as to how to use. In-game controls are also mixed bag (it may be great for sim-players, but is downright un-intuitive to casual gamers). The ML-based building construction is very limited - making city-tourism downright generic (it's a harsh criticism, but don't play this game at this stage to "see what a city looks like". Also, if I look at my own home cities of Melbourne, Adelaide, or Tokyo - they really don't look that realistic. The landscapes are better. There are unusual LOD issues in the game which gives random quality issues, as well as occasional tile-tearing. The 'live' elements miss obvious things such as radio comms (you know how that would go wrong though). Also there are simple things that would have helped - like being able to adjust settings using mouse when using an external view). Playing in the cockpit is more challenging, and where the flight simmers will want to mess around most. For me however, it was not as enjoyable as a casual experience. I also experienced stutter and frame drops when there are a lot of other players in the sky.    … Expand

    Microsoft Flight Simulator features some really impressive, even groundbreaking technologies that allow it to procedurally create entire Earth. [Issue#249, p.74]

    It’s not just a game, it’s a phenomenon. It lets you explore literally the whole planet – cities, mountains, lakes, rivers, even my house was there – from the cockpits of 20-30 (depends on the version of the game) airplanes. Flying experiences are also great and vary from machine to machine. I’m sure I’ll be returning to MFS for years to come. [11/2020, p.38]

    When all is said and done, Microsoft Flight Simulator in its current state reminds me a lot of Sea of Thieves shortly after launch. The game has a lot of promise and a lot of potential, but it is marred by a number of issues that keep it from really shining. Once the issues have been worked out in six months or a year from now, I fully expect Microsoft Flight Simulator to be a must-have title. Right now, unless you are a hardcore flight sim fanatic, I would pass on buying the premium version and just stick to playing the basic version that's included with GamePass.
