The next flight simulator series

Postby Black ZR-1 » Thu Jun 03, 2004 2:35 pm

Online!  

- At first you would start off with a Cesna.  You would fly small charters while racking up your hours and qualifying for bigger jets.  

- You can get jobs at virtual airlines.

- You can start your own airline and have others fly/work for you while advertising your airline on their planes.

Picture the FS community sky lit up with thousands of players online, I could just imagine.  What do you guys think?  FS2006 Online?

Sounds more like 2034 to me. :o

But how is it different than a virtual airline, which we can (and do) currently have?
Great edit, Bob.

i think it could be an option. i know fs is not classed as a game but after you have safely completed a flight it would be nice to get some recognition :)

I for one really want to see self shadowing on the aircraft. This would be the last stepin visual realsim for FS I think. As for the game dynamics itself. I think it would be interesting but improbable for the forseeable future.


Shadowing would be great eye candy.  Also, your planes getting dirty/wet in bad weather conditions.  FS2K4 did a great job with the clouds.  Picture FS2K6?
