I would say bush flying is the highlight of this SIM. The other day I landed on a sand dune during a rainstorm thinking it wouldn’t be a big deal and I got stuck in the sand
I landed in a field in the rain and got stuck and I thought it was a bug. That’s impressive. I didn’t even realize they would include something like that
All the negativity on the release is a shame. I could get to installing until Wednesday night because of work. No problems at that time. Played on Thursday and had the same thoughts as you, very positive. So excited about this. Tha ks for another honest post.
I didn't get to start till Yesterday and I've been enjoying it. Some speed bumps but if Bush Flight is your thing...the new scenery is fantastic. Good to see the positivity.
You do realise that all the negativity was entirely because the game wasn't working for so many people? Even now, there are people who haven't even been able to start the game. At all. It's funny how all the posts decrying the negativity are all from people who have - through sheer luck - been able to get it to load and run without bugs
i agree about the lighting and filters in the sim, looks very natural and beautiful colour contrasts. once they have sorted out all the bugs, internet speed, server issues and all our 3rd party aircraft we bought in 2020 are ported over and working perfectly in 2024, then it will be a good buy. it will just take time. not sure how many 2020 aircraft (3rd party) will work in 2024 sim.
Yeah. I was flying around various little dirt airstrips in the desert north of Los Angeles (in the Norden, actually) and it happened that the sun set while I was doing so. The sky was beautiful, and as it darkened the lights in the various settlements started coming on as it slowly and smoothly transitioned to night.
Nice to see. I completed my first helicopter licence exam yesterday, and shut down the aircraft, but the scenario would not end. So I had to abort, and did not get my certification. Think I will just do some free flying today with this plane, and just have some fun - as you are clearly having in this video.
A very interesting working review of 2024, and yes the scenery and vegetation looks epic. I suppose I will have to take the plunge and install 2024 ? Although I have 2020 set up and running nicely in VR.
Absolutely stunning. Thanks for the beach trip :). Foliage and lighting have improved that much, it's pure delight now. Did a little flight over our local airport the other day and the surrounding landscape felt right and like home. Considering how popular FS2020 was and how many preordered FS2024, it's amazing that they fixed most online issues by day 3. Your old FS2020 contents are rolling in too, bunch by bunch. Can't wait what 3rd party devs will come up with the coming months, this looks awesome like anything GotFriends put out.
I realize it is not Microsoft's "thing" but I gotta say that I am somewhat disappointed in the lack of damage or crash physics. I would like the option to see the effects of hitting the gear too hard on a landing and the cost associated with the repair including labor. As well having to fill the place with fuel and oil. Don't forget those annuals. All of these costs would be a valuable tool in demonstrating the actual cost of flying for those interested. Maybe this is just not their intended market or who knows why? Maybe I am the only one... IDK just my 2cents. Maybe someday Microsoft will include/improve such things. Btw Found out about you and the channel with your appearance on Blu's channel the other day. Thanks for sharing AvAngle.
Ah, so, I specifically asked Jorg this. They will never add crash physics because A, Aircraft manufacturers request they don't, and B, its a flight sim, not a crash sim and their philosophy is that they would never want to have people clorify aircraft accidents. Now that being said, you can and are able to damage things like gear struts! you can inspect them after hard landings!
I agree. It looks really nice. I just wonder about the amount of cloud reflection in the water. It seems excessive, but that's something they could easily fix if they wanted to I think. I was watching, as you were landing the first time looking into the forest, and it seemed pretty realistic to me how the light played with the shade and the trees it looked really nice.
Yes water reflections in general are something I'd still like to see them work on. Scenery reflections in water also tend to look suspect, and while it's not as bad as in 2020, there's still sometimes a noticeable halo between the terrain and its reflection
@ I'm so much waiting for my good old JF Arrow to be updated, my hands are itching for a new round-the-globe trip on a single-engine aircraft. Did you ever do one in the MSFS by the way? I always get stuck in Japan 😅
Thanks so much for that! I took the Albatross to Gibraltar because of your previous vid. I really enjoyed flying it and Gibraltar is a hand crafted airport too. Now you inspired me to take this gem up for some fun!
@@AvAngel I agree I have taken it up a few times, I just flew it from Palm Springs to Newport Beach and it is an honest airplane. I was impressed with Southern California. Looks about as good as Glasgow.
I took out the DracoX from my local airport the other day, managed to land it in my old rugby practice field (pitch if your not in the us). Very impressive performance from that monster. I’ve always been very pleased with the add ons from GOTfriends! Can’t wait to see the updates for the double ender!
Great video AvAngel. I’m also finding 2024 to be improving as we go, and only 4 days old. The negative comments always occur with something new especially in any business (not just flight sim) which requires tech. System upgrades or, perish the thought, new systems always cause grief especially when people want to go back to the “old system.” 😅
Not being able to get the game to start at all (which is still the case for some people) or having it lose your gauges mid flight will also generate negativity. Did you consider that?
I love the positive take you have on this release. I'm getting tired of all the whining in different comment sections now. I too belive this will get better and have a lot of potential for amazing things going forward. I'm looking forward to trying out the //42 Campout utility, lighting up a fire and put up a tent in the bush somewhere, enjoying the sunset and moonlight. 😄
I’m with you in terms of the positivity! There are certainly a lot of bugs that need squishing, but the fundamentals are solid and the flight model and ground handling are much improved. I’ve spent some hours in VR with a mid range computer and still find myself grinning constantly at the amazing scenery. It might have been a bumpy start, but the future of the sim will be fantastic!
I absolutely love the visual detail that has been added to this game. The shallow water detail with the pebbles on the shoreline of their streams and rivers, the retraced lighting, the way the herds of animals run away from you if you fly too close with your airplane, the diversity of trees and bushes and undergrowth in the forest that is true to the region where you are is also amazing. I was in Asia somewhere probably Malaysia looking for tigers, and I'm walking through the woods and there is vines hanging off the tree branches it was just so cool everything looks so authenticfor us low and slow flyers it doesn't get much better.
@ turn your audio up as you're walking through the woods! There's great ambient environmental sounds as well! You mentioned the water, but it's also the same if you walk on gravel or sand! There is so much minuscule attention to detail, that only us nature loving bush pilots will really get the most out of! Go chase some herds in Africa! I'm telling you, it's fun! When you go on foot near the animals you can actually hear their footsteps!
Great video, however as a real world pilot, walk around always begins INSIDE the cockpit! MSFS got this wrong by starting outside the airplane. When I approach an aircraft which I’m about to fly, I ask, how are you going to try to kill me today?
Hi AvAngel .. first of all awesome video as always.. secondly... your sleeping bag is in the back of the plane .. thirdly I'd like to see your opinion on the handling with and without extended slats on this plane (big switch on the stick) .. you can map that via the spoilers btw. ... I love the temporary last stage of flaps, which I have mapped to a button.. always a pleasure seeing a new video from you in my feed.. stay awesome!
That makes more sense! It said in the manual it was under the wing so was unsure! Handling wiese.... hmm, yeah I'd have to try that and see! the slats would likely have made my super slow speed stuff MUCH easier.
@@AvAngel thought so too.. the last flap stage also pushes up your nose considerably as long as you hold the button.. it's my favorite plane so far in 2024... really fun... cheers
A great display of your airmanship skills, for sure! Perhaps a test pilot in a former life? I am positive, too, about the giant strides made already by this sim. I have only been tinkering around in the 172 testing out the AP, G1000 flight programming, etc. All of which BTW are working 99.9% as expected. I have noticed, however, a remarkable improvement in the overall flight model of this ubiquitous little bird. Approaches are now wonderful, rolling sounds, air turbulence sounds, etc. are much better IMO. There is lots to look forward to, exploring all that I bought here for only $69.99 - a truly remarkable deal!
The general fluidity of the physics feels more rubbery (more real) than snappier and smushier as it was... things feel more solid. It's hopeful as heck.
My Cessna 206H does work in MSFS 2024 mostly. The avionics brightness and normal map textures that gave it the skin wrinkles and rivets seem to be having some trouble. I plan to update it with a walkaround and everything. But at the moment, I am also having some fun with the sim and just being a player instead of a dev.
Hi AvAngel, fun video. I didn't quite get the location you're at in this video. Somewhere in Mexico, you mentioned at the start, but could you tell me the ICAO code for the airstrip, please? Cause that beach looks absolutely stunning. Much obliged.
You want good strong hard tires in the bush as there gonna take a real banging fromall those bush landings. The first thing I notice is the sound, which is good and the colours are better, infact it's all better. Can you play two sims on one pc? I'm not so sure, anyways it's all good. Wow, that's a cracking landing. I need to clean my pc and try it out, thanks for the content. Slainte ❤️ know any spacex addons? 😉 😜yep, I saw the addon from one of your videos.👍 12:07
Great video, as usual. I feel positive about the new SIM also. One weird thing, daisies. Has anyone noticed the sim is lousy with daisies? My neighbor, who's very fastidious about his lawn, his yard is full of daisies.
Have they fixed the ground handling from 2020? It seems like a mixed bag compared to 2020, but the potential is clear to see. Give it time and it'll hands down be the best.
I've been loving fs24 my real only gripe is the missiosns, i do wish we could get missions in free flight because career is a grind i just dont have time for. And the fact we still cant fly larger planes on xbox as it crashes the game still hopefully next few days it'll be fixed and working.
Oh... finally someone showing us one of the new aicrafts and not a Cessna 172! Could you also try the Stemme S12? It is a very interessant touring motor glider with his 25 meter wingspan! I have flown in that of my old flying instructor several times in RL.
My biggest issue is the ground terrain takes too long to generate. By the time you start landing it’s too late. Bushes rocks and every thing just pop out of nowhere. Flyby doesn’t really solve the issue either.
You said Mexico. Is it not Costa Rica? In MSFS 2020 that was one of my favorite bush strips to practice my initial attempts at that type of flying (I got to go to Costa Rica many years ago). I landed on the beach the first time because I couldn't find the actual air strip. When I took off again is when I found it!
Having ANY level of walkaround as a native sim feature is something we never even considered possible... even in 20. I'll take anything, because we're getting spoiled hard :D
Nope, well, not really? There are profiles for my honeycomb stuff, and I set my keyboard back to 2020 profile and added the walking stuff... otherwise relatively ok?
@ on 2024 at least on console, Right click and pan with a mouse goes full up, down, left,right what ever. Impossible to pan, have played with all the speeds but still like when track Ir has a fit.
The reflections of vegetation in the sea are all over the place. And the sand kicked up by prop wash is green for no apparent reason. But the flight model looks OK
I'm not sure how its calling the dust for the backblast, but it's certainly a hell of a start compared to what 2020 was capable of. That's my big thing... if this is day one, picture day 200
thing is, it was anticipated to be one of the biggest, if not the biggest, release... they only stress tested it to 200k users... like what? where is the logic in that though? it seems way too buggy right now imo and this whole stream all the data down lark just doesn't seem feasible to me, probably a big reason why the stutters are happening
That's likely all they could get who signed up to test. However the number doesn't matter as much as you think if they throttle server reception to match the test pool... it doesn't need to be 1:1. The issue here was unanticipated gamepass numbers that pushed things beyond capacity... millions of them.
Got friends dude to me the other day when i asked about bushwheels interacting with water: "We make planes, not water effects!" with some aggressive undertone... Meanwhile A2A Simulation's Piper Cub did the exact same thing i was asking for back in FSX days... Not sure why he was so stressed out / salty about it, but damn my opinion of "Got Friends" changed that day.. more like "Got Salt".
I mean.... it depends on how the sim handles water. FSX did it differently to 20, 20, the water didn't have a lot of actual behavior. I don't think he was being agressive :P Those dudes don't do agressive! I think you misread him.
Can’t believe some of these comments of how we shouldn’t be negative!!!!! THIS IS MICROSOFT a trillion dollar company. It’s rubbish. So many bugs, that’s if yo can get it to download in the first place. The content providers may not want to bite the hand that feeds them but we users have to be honest. It’s not good enough!
No I’ve just been around the bush a few times and I’m not going to be negative for the sake of it because it will work… It’s not good, and it was launched poorly but I refuse to just be a doomsayer
I support the developers because they have given so much to the community. Anyone bagging on them at the moment is forgetting that. Give it a chance and let it adjust and grow and everything will be fine. Thankyou for the positivity Av
Correction: 2020 had a BETTER start than the shitshow we experienced a few days ago. I know. I moved to Kiribati for the 2020 launch. You are looking through Microsoft supplied, made in the Grand Canyon, rose-colored glasses at 2024. And people who are rightfully expressing their disappointment with 2024 are not all assholes, AvAngel. I've never disagreed with you more!
Hang the phonebook on. 2020 had a really crap start too. As for your assertion that the 'Grand Canyon' has tinted my view of things, I am sick and tired of hearing this. You know who didn't go to that event? Those that simply couldn't make it. You wouldn't have turned it down either. It was a wonderful trip, exhausting but wonderful and I'm sick and tired of being told I'm a bought and paid for shill. Do you jump on people with sponsorships from hardware manufacturers or other companies? I Don't have a single one... You know events like this are normal in the games industry? creators and journalists go to them all the time and aren't accused of being biased. The reason I'm positive is that I prefer to be, I am sick of people just bashing and bashing and yeah, they messed it up really badly, but my hope, my desire for the positive is because I got to see what it 'could' be... what it will be, and in many ways in 4 days from release is proving TO be. The screaming that this should be uninstalled and refunded and never touched again because its dogcrap yada yada... its unnecessary. There is no need for me to scream, shout, and rage to make my point, and many critical people are being needlessly nasty, not just critical. If i was such a shill I wouldn't have posted my first impressions video showing it looking bad, or it stuttering or showing poor textures and commented on them... would I? How DARE you assume I'm paid for. I have NEVER given that impression on any review, or addon, and I won't start now. I didn't say expressing disappointment makes you an asshole, I said you don't need to BE an asshole to express disappointment. Many are being just that. Hell, many of those people wrote this off before it even launched.
@ thanks Angel, I’m just so let down and frustrated, I will watch you for now and may try it next summer, I’m so disappointed, keep giving vids to watch to get me through.
What? Generic areas are real areas. Why would they not add vegetation just because it’s not a popular area. This kind of thinking is wrong. Even crime filled areas have trees and grass. 😊
My point was that areas around hand crafted airports are/ may be more detailed (by hand) than fully auto gen areas, but so far its looking rather decent)
I would say bush flying is the highlight of this SIM. The other day I landed on a sand dune during a rainstorm thinking it wouldn’t be a big deal and I got stuck in the sand
haha yup!
I landed in a field in the rain and got stuck and I thought it was a bug. That’s impressive. I didn’t even realize they would include something like that
All the negativity on the release is a shame. I could get to installing until Wednesday night because of work. No problems at that time. Played on Thursday and had the same thoughts as you, very positive. So excited about this. Tha ks for another honest post.
I didn't get to start till Yesterday and I've been enjoying it.
Some speed bumps but if Bush Flight is your thing...the new scenery is fantastic.
Good to see the positivity.
It's not even about server problems, it's about so many bugs in the game like literally everywhere
Good luck. 👍
You do realise that all the negativity was entirely because the game wasn't working for so many people? Even now, there are people who haven't even been able to start the game. At all.

Mentioning what doesn’t work is negativity and not justified? Wow don’t ever complain about anything or you’re a hypocrite.
i agree about the lighting and filters in the sim, looks very natural and beautiful colour contrasts. once they have sorted out all the bugs, internet speed, server issues and all our 3rd party aircraft we bought in 2020 are ported over and working perfectly in 2024, then it will be a good buy.
it will just take time. not sure how many 2020 aircraft (3rd party) will work in 2024 sim.
"I'm just gonna pretend all these bits are okay" is something you never want to hear from a pilot hahaha
My middle name is shenanigans
Due to the lighting changes in 2024, I am now Dawn and dusk flying just so I can take in the beauty of my surroundings, outstanding.
Yeah. I was flying around various little dirt airstrips in the desert north of Los Angeles (in the Norden, actually) and it happened that the sun set while I was doing so. The sky was beautiful, and as it darkened the lights in the various settlements started coming on as it slowly and smoothly transitioned to night.
the first approach back into the forest strip is unreal
Nice to see. I completed my first helicopter licence exam yesterday, and shut down the aircraft, but the scenario would not end. So I had to abort, and did not get my certification. Think I will just do some free flying today with this plane, and just have some fun - as you are clearly having in this video.

12:13 'look at these rocks!' AvAngel, easily the best flightsim review channel on youtube. Another excellent video and thumb up again!
Look, the Rocks are the most important part of the new sim :D
The one review I always wait to watch! 👏👏

You’re welcome 😊
If the windsock pole is out of the ground, that should be a huge red flag to flying conditions !😂
XD
This is the first 2024 video I've watched. I know enough to avoid the first few days of nonsense. It's almost time to install it now. almost...
Another great vid! Oh and it was awesome to see you stream with Blu games, great job Av!
It was a surprise for me too
Dust effect very exaggerated but ... at least is there. Hope there will be more bushstrips and small challenging grass airports in MSFS2024.
Thanks for echoing my opinions perfectly. This is already a *great* sim and it's only going to get better!

Couldn’t quite hear where you said this is. Where is this little strip? 👍🏻. Good video.
Great video, thank you!
How does the slow part of the envelope feel, with the tweaked flight model?
More predictable? I can feel it closer to the edge, but the edge snaps more realistically than 2020 did.

Have they fixed the ground handling from 2020?
It seems like a mixed bag compared to 2020, but the potential is clear to see. Give it time and it'll hands down be the best.
It seems... better? I think it is :D
I've been loving fs24 my real only gripe is the missiosns, i do wish we could get missions in free flight because career is a grind i just dont have time for. And the fact we still cant fly larger planes on xbox as it crashes the game still hopefully next few days it'll be fixed and working.
It's likely due to calling assets and asigning mission materials, its one of those needed things.
Still loving the now “old” sim, but it is Inevitable that eventually I will have to take the red pill and find how deep the 2024 rabbit hole goes!
I do too, I've even been flying it today for my DC3 Fix *shhh* Don't tell anyone :D
Oh... finally someone showing us one of the new aicrafts and not a Cessna 172! Could you also try the Stemme S12? It is a very interessant touring motor glider with his 25 meter wingspan! I have flown in that of my old flying instructor several times in RL.
I will be diving into gliders, I promise! And more cool planes!
@@AvAngel Thanks. I found funny that almost nobody try the new planes.
wouldn't it be cool if there was a "climbing into cockpit" animation even just from a1st pov perspective instead of that fade out/fade in effect...
I'll take even being able to DO this :D
My biggest issue is the ground terrain takes too long to generate. By the time you start landing it’s too late. Bushes rocks and every thing just pop out of nowhere. Flyby doesn’t really solve the issue either.
That might be the servers still being potatoes. It's getting a lot better too. I had no popping.
Which head tracker are you using? Have you got Tobii working?
I don't use Tobii, I use the Grass Monkey SImulations Puck.
Will repurchase in a year when it's ready and more stable
Honestly? Give it a month and I think it will be fine. It's recovering very fast.
It should take a lot less than a year
It's a bit of a glitchy boi right now, but hopefully they get it sorted quickly
You said Mexico. Is it not Costa Rica? In MSFS 2020 that was one of my favorite bush strips to practice my initial attempts at that type of flying (I got to go to Costa Rica many years ago). I landed on the beach the first time because I couldn't find the actual air strip. When I took off again is when I found it!
It is Costa Rica, i was wrong! :D
@1:00 Very important to do... Check the oil. Much more important than everything else, but not implemented.
Having ANY level of walkaround as a native sim feature is something we never even considered possible... even in 20. I'll take anything, because we're getting spoiled hard :D
That is on the plane developer not the sim, on the default 172 you can check the oil.
Did you not have any issues with controller bindings? It seems to be an insanely common issue yet no youtube reviewer seems to mention it?
Nope, well, not really? There are profiles for my honeycomb stuff, and I set my keyboard back to 2020 profile and added the walking stuff... otherwise relatively ok?
@AvAngel interesting. Great video btw
What’s the entry for baro and reset gyro on msfs 2024 as carnt find it. Looked for ‘baro’ and no result
Bite me! Exactly! xD
How do you get the mouse to work without it spasing out ?
right click?
@ on 2024 at least on console, Right click and pan with a mouse goes full up, down, left,right what ever. Impossible to pan, have played with all the speeds but still like when track Ir has a fit.
@@firefox3187mouse on Xbox is unworkable but fine on PC.
sleeping setup is a sleeping bag in the back of the plane
I hate the haters. MSFS 2020 was full of bugs on release. MSFS2024 is great and will only get better.
The sunlight still looks cartoony. Games from 15 years ago already had these graphics. Where is the contrast?
I think it looks far more real than 20 did, but yeah it could take a bit more contrast.
The reflections of vegetation in the sea are all over the place. And the sand kicked up by prop wash is green for no apparent reason. But the flight model looks OK
I'm not sure how its calling the dust for the backblast, but it's certainly a hell of a start compared to what 2020 was capable of. That's my big thing... if this is day one, picture day 200
@@AvAngel I'm going to follow the improvement with interest. The obvious question will be if it is worth the entire new cost given that I have 2020.
As am I, i think it's showing more promise than 20 already, but will see!
How to find this place? What is airport code?
Wo ist mein Bett?❤
🙌
thing is, it was anticipated to be one of the biggest, if not the biggest, release... they only stress tested it to 200k users... like what? where is the logic in that though? it seems way too buggy right now imo and this whole stream all the data down lark just doesn't seem feasible to me, probably a big reason why the stutters are happening
That's likely all they could get who signed up to test. However the number doesn't matter as much as you think if they throttle server reception to match the test pool... it doesn't need to be 1:1. The issue here was unanticipated gamepass numbers that pushed things beyond capacity... millions of them.
Got friends dude to me the other day when i asked about bushwheels interacting with water: "We make planes, not water effects!" with some aggressive undertone...
Meanwhile A2A Simulation's Piper Cub did the exact same thing i was asking for back in FSX days... Not sure why he was so stressed out / salty about it, but damn my opinion of "Got Friends" changed that day.. more like "Got Salt".
I mean.... it depends on how the sim handles water. FSX did it differently to 20, 20, the water didn't have a lot of actual behavior.
I don't think he was being agressive :P Those dudes don't do agressive! I think you misread him.
Can’t believe some of these comments of how we shouldn’t be negative!!!!! THIS IS MICROSOFT a trillion dollar company. It’s rubbish. So many bugs, that’s if yo can get it to download in the first place. The content providers may not want to bite the hand that feeds them but we users have to be honest. It’s not good enough!
No I’ve just been around the bush a few times and I’m not going to be negative for the sake of it because it will work…
It’s not good, and it was launched poorly but I refuse to just be a doomsayer
Sweet
are you playing on vr mode?
No, head tracking
Can you fly to Gilligan’s island 😂
my pc cant do it im looking for a xbox just to play it
I support the developers because they have given so much to the community. Anyone bagging on them at the moment is forgetting that. Give it a chance and let it adjust and grow and everything will be fine. Thankyou for the positivity Av
trees look a lot better
Correction: 2020 had a BETTER start than the shitshow we experienced a few days ago. I know. I moved to Kiribati for the 2020 launch. You are looking through Microsoft supplied, made in the Grand Canyon, rose-colored glasses at 2024. And people who are rightfully expressing their disappointment with 2024 are not all assholes, AvAngel. I've never disagreed with you more!
Hang the phonebook on. 2020 had a really crap start too.
As for your assertion that the 'Grand Canyon' has tinted my view of things, I am sick and tired of hearing this. You know who didn't go to that event? Those that simply couldn't make it. You wouldn't have turned it down either. It was a wonderful trip, exhausting but wonderful and I'm sick and tired of being told I'm a bought and paid for shill.
Do you jump on people with sponsorships from hardware manufacturers or other companies? I Don't have a single one...
You know events like this are normal in the games industry? creators and journalists go to them all the time and aren't accused of being biased.
The reason I'm positive is that I prefer to be, I am sick of people just bashing and bashing and yeah, they messed it up really badly, but my hope, my desire for the positive is because I got to see what it 'could' be... what it will be, and in many ways in 4 days from release is proving TO be. The screaming that this should be uninstalled and refunded and never touched again because its dogcrap yada yada... its unnecessary.
There is no need for me to scream, shout, and rage to make my point, and many critical people are being needlessly nasty, not just critical. If i was such a shill I wouldn't have posted my first impressions video showing it looking bad, or it stuttering or showing poor textures and commented on them... would I?
How DARE you assume I'm paid for. I have NEVER given that impression on any review, or addon, and I won't start now. I didn't say expressing disappointment makes you an asshole, I said you don't need to BE an asshole to express disappointment. Many are being just that. Hell, many of those people wrote this off before it even launched.
I hate the big blue circles on the walkaround
Not a super big fan myself but it's not awful
What happened to your voice?
I have legit no idea what you mean... this is my normal voice?
That is not Mexico.
Yup, Costa Rica, I was wrong.
I’m trying to get a refund after 5 days if trying hundreds of times and get get in, they make getting a refund almost impossible
Or... here's an idea, give it a week and enjoy the sim? it's getting really good already.
@ thanks Angel, I’m just so let down and frustrated, I will watch you for now and may try it next summer, I’m so disappointed, keep giving vids to watch to get me through.
Wow I’m early.
What? Generic areas are real areas. Why would they not add vegetation just because it’s not a popular area. This kind of thinking is wrong. Even crime filled areas have trees and grass. 😊
My point was that areas around hand crafted airports are/ may be more detailed (by hand) than fully auto gen areas, but so far its looking rather decent)
Are you a boy or girl?
Half human half aeroplane
I like this answer... Half Human, half airplane.
Yes, weird as it may sound I'm a woman that flies airplanes :D
A woman?!?!??!?!?
Oh god, where???!!?!
