Crashing could be more realistic too. I get the feeling no one else feels this way or no one else should feel this way. They could at least play sad music and give me a lecture a la Police Quest after each crash.
- Macha 7y agoI think part of it is an idea you should be flying "properly" and not making crashes exciting, and part of it may be the same problem licensed racing games have where the licensors don't want their vehicles portrayed as beat up ever.
- eternalny1 7y agoThey are working directly with the manufacturers on this simulator, and there is no way Boeing is going to allow "realistic crashes". This is a flight simulator not a crash simulator.
- spitfire 7y agoMaybe a subgame in the genre of Porrasturvat (stair dismount) and Rekkaturvat (Truck dismount)? My 12 year old self would have loved that. IIRC they removed the crashing post 9/11. You just clipped right through buildings. Have they added that back in?
- mrguyorama 7y agoVery VERY few people buy a Flight Simulator to crash into something. However, failures, like an engine flaming out or gear not extending are perfectly simulateable even in current gen simulators
- perl4ever 7y agoWell, back in the day, when Flight Simulator was mainly Meigs field and a few other locations, crashing into things, particularly the Sears Tower, was one of the more interesting things to do with it. That and flying under the Golden Gate Bridge. But a crash would just draw a zig-zag line across the windshield to indicate broken glass.
