    Those autogen buildings look terrible. I don't know why they don't use more AI to make Bing Streetside and Maps into 3d. A generative type of AI could get extremely good at filling out missing details and making things look accurate when up-close. Photogrammetry can be very good, but is too expensive to capture for every area on the planet.

      This isn't the final product of the game... This is a build of the game that has most of the stuff removed so they can test the stress on the servers. The actual final build will be 20x better. This is nowhere near what it will look like in a months time

    Great video as always. The takeaway from this is for anyone new to the sim this will blow them away and for those 2020 vets its the update of all updates and a must have. . . albeit a paid one. The lighting as you say looks amazingly lifelike 👏

    The weather obviously cleared up again though this afternoon & of course soon returned back to beautiful Autumnal sunny again, (should have waited a few hours)..... It's sunny and 70 every day down here in England right up until November.
    Maybe try today's test flight (October 12th), in some proper gloomy weather, over in the US during the Hurricane Helene / Hurricane Milton style of gloomy conditions ! 😛

    I don't mind it being an evolution of MSFS 2020 rather than a revolution. Because MSFS 2020 still kicks ass! What I want from this new iteration is better performance, less bugs and good VR support. I agree, don't like the flashy zooming nonsense. It's pretty clear they want it to have this flashy presentation to it, but in the end, it's going to get old pretty quickly. I wish they had focused on the menus being more optimized. So far it seems like they are still as slow as in MSFS 2020.

    Thank you for your honest review-you tell it like it is. We’ll have to wait for the final version. While there are certainly some improvements, based on what we’ve seen so far, I’m not convinced this is a completely new MFS or a full upgrade as initially advertised. It feels like something between an upgrade and an update.

    Let it mature I'm sure in the end it will be a great sim. A ton has been invested in MSFS 2020 so have to see what will and won't transfer (that will be a big, big factor)! My guess is 6-12 months to get the new sim oiled and dialed in? This is new so growing pains and learning curve are usually a roller coaster of sorts. I'm hanging on to 2020 for awhile as it is pretty dialed in and running smooth. As always great video Steve! I'm Still in search of a VR headset....

    How did you get your controls working so quickly, all profiles are empty and every button & lever needs to be set up, it's crazy they did not add any default profiles for Honeycomb Alpha & Bravo... It's a nightmare but the sim runs so much smoother and better than in MSFS2020 with the same hardware and yes all 12 cores I have on my AMD CPU get used and must be one the the many reasons it runs so much better. I would love to see setup video's like the ones from Mark the simhanger for Yoke & Throttle setup guide.

I need to get comfortable in a more familiar setting before transitioning to 2024. Your first impressions are certainly welcomed. Thanks! BTW, my ISP (Cable Company) gave me a great deal on 1 Gigabit Internet for several years. Don't absolutely need it, but what the heck. :-)

    I dont think the sim will change that much in terms of look and feel , between now and the release in Nov. I fear it will be MSFS 2020 with better loading times and a lick of paint on the UI. I dont really care for the gamey addons. It will hurt to have to pay 150 bucks for that if its truly the case. But I will probably fold and buy it purely because of FOMO.
    Shift + WASD for seat position, and Shift and Q or E for seat height :) Bindings are a nightmare for now. But as you say its an alpha :/

    I never expected anything else than MSFS2020 plus back-end and front-end updates and addons, so I'm happy with most of what I see. What I don't like is things like f.ex. that the water reflections STILL is drawn around the edges of the aircraft/cockpit like some sort of strange big gap, it's so ugly.. Hoped they was fixing flaws like that. Anyway, nice video.

  • @Mongooseman121
    @Mongooseman121 3 часа назад

    I think I’m going to hold out before upgrading as I have so many addons I need to ensure will work otherwise it’s not worth it to me. Aside from lots of scenery, if the devs of my aircraft especially Fenix, 146,a300 and PA28, along with GSX, FSLTL, beyond ATC, FS2crew, fenix2gsx etc can prove it works along with VR and decent fps then I’ll go through the upgrade pain! Plus I’m expecting lots of bugs in the first 12 months as per usual. Looks good though and the flight dynamics improvements will be very welcome!

    Not enough people understand what this technical alpha is all about, so let me quote what someone else said:
    Many participants of the tech alpha don't seem to get what the point of it all is. It's about the systems and services in the backend as stated by Asobo before AND after the alpha started.
    This version is stripped down to the bare minimum for that. It is not for you to check out early how it will look when you get the "final" product.
    Most of the procedural/ai stuff like rocks, foliage, grass, fields/crops, basically all the new eye candy as seen in the previews and trailers is NOT implemented in this build. Traffic of any kind is made of generic models.
    The final product on November 19th will be way better than what we’ve seen so far 😏

    Just tested the alpha. Using a 7950X 64GB ram and 4090 it’s super smooth. I feel those with X3D CPU will maybe échangé for cpu with more cores.
    Road traffic is still AWFUL. I can’t emphasise this enough. Xplane has this pinned down for years.
    Overall it’s very rough around the edges. Looks promising. I wouldn’t say it was a revolution. Certainly better performance than 2020.
