What are your guys favorite flight sims and why?
Im a long time FSX user, and heavily invested in payware add ons to FSX. But its getting long in the tooth so looking for newer options with something a little newer than dx9 graphics, but nothing i try has the level of detail as the old FSX with some add on's.
FSW looked promising until it went early access and already selling DLC before they even announced a launch date for the game which pretty much killed my enthusiasm for it, maybe it will turn out ok but IMO selling DLC to a incomplete game without a release date announced is just ridiculous and stupid. Make the damn game before selling DLC, release day DLC is bad enough but pre release DLC is just insane, whats next selling basic game updates as DLC?.
XP 11 also looks good but is seriously lacking in land/airport detail vs stock FSX let alone modded FSX, i do like the physics though, way better than FSX and FSW in my opinion.
I am willing to invest in payware add ons for a newer sim but nothing out there right now seem to be worth that investment. hopefully you guys can suggest something i missed.
