Well I'm kinda sick to have only a black and white 6x6 grid as an excuse for a landscape.
Come on Microsoft ! give us colors in the next version ! A little green for the ground and some blue in the upper part of the screen would be great.
Is that so difficult ?

I fear that Dominique may be having a serious FS-1 flashback!

yep Jeff !
MS has done a super job for the last twenty five years in building up a very beautiful toy which has been my main hobby during most of my adult life.
It is so easy to be critical and disparage MS that I think that we've to put into perpective what we've now and possibly what we'll have in a few months.
We take it for granted, it is not. We've seen large segments of the gaming software vanish into thin air during these years. Asking for more from Microsoft, praising third party developpers dont mean that we cannot be thankful somewhat to MS to support this hobby.
OK, enough preaching...

LOL.... Well im looking forward to this already Ive had all the flightsims from way back in the 80s when I ran my FS on a top notch Sinclair ZX 48 cutting edge it was too. I see a few great features in the new FS10 notably the reflective runways in the rain a thing Ive always wanted, I live in England Newcastle EGNT is my home airport and its always raining here! Also the Birds a step in the right direction with out a doubt. As I see it its up to the community again to come up with the rest of the goodies I think weve taken the planes to the limit of reallity its the ground and and sky that needs the work now. What I want ? hmmm ambiant sound at every field moving cars on the roads cattle sheep etc in the fields (and lets see them run when I buzz em ) Ian R

They have moving cars on the road, and they have cattle in fields. I don't know about the sound at EVERY field, maybe some of the fields, or maybe none. I just hope that the sheep and cars aren't like a paper cut out.
Also, I watched the video about that conference with Bill gates showing the new stuff. Well when they played FS X, they used an Xbox 360 controller, and flew a helicopter. That must have been hard.
