Yeah I saw FLIGHT somewhere. The first thing I did was send them feedback and compare FSX to IL-2 1946. Told them that the MSFS 'sky' has always been too cyan, and that their water was fugly. I said look at the water textures and wave animations in an over 10 year old sim that uses OpenGL that looks better than what they are getting out of DX11!

I doubt they will listen though.

For me, the attraction of a sim like FSX is I can fly from anywhere to anywhere in the world. I can fly from near where I am, to anywhere else- in real time, or sped up some.

I saw where Dart had an article somewhere on making the leap from virtual to real pilotage- if one is interested in such, then stuff like FSX is a better solution than a combat flight sim.

I'm just as excited about Il-2/CoD as anyone; but I doubt if I will ever be able to fly from Manston to Aviano (or, from Mildenhall to Berlin and back) any time soon.
