Should I buy FS2004??

Postby IRN_BRU » Mon Oct 20, 2003 11:59 pm

Can someone give me some advice, I have a P4 1.9GHz, GF3ti200 and 256MB RAM.  I love FS98 and FS2002 but have never bothered getting FS2004.  All I know is that it has older planes to fly which I'm not that interested in :P , it has a new weather model which I'm very interested in  :o and that it hogs your FPS :-[

I don't want to shell out the money for it if its going to slow my system down, especially with all the weather effects.  So should I get it, whats the vibe  8) going around with it??  If some of the bugs in FS2002 are gone then I may consider it  :(

Thanks for info

 ;D  ;D  FS2004 ROCKS   ;D  ;D

I would suggest getting a better graphics card and at least upping your RAM to a minnimum of 512MB.
To better gauge if you should buy it spend some time reading the 2004 forum. Just reading about others problems with it and everything everyone says about it is alot better way to gauge if you should upgrade to 2004 or not.
Hope this helps.

I would say yes if you do the upgrades. Icould not use 2004 until I went to 512ram and a good video card. It had to be set low on all settings and still shuttered a bit. Did my updates and found 2004 very worth it. In my humble opinion.  lol
