Microsoft Flight Simulator - Neuer Ableger für Xbox & PC

[ShortSeb]

Die 737 sollte ja eigentlich auch noch dieses Jahr für den MSFS kommen. Da werden wir sicher noch viel Spaß haben...

Uff. Dann brauche ich definitiv Urlaub.
Eine Woche, um zuvor wieder die (Original) Handbücher zu studieren und eine Woche zum Fliegen.

PS: Meine FMS (Honeywell) Kenntnisse sind sowas von eingerostet!

 

[TomyLee]

Ähm, deutsch?

äh, lern English.

Angeblich soll ja nächste Woche Donnerstag / Freitag schon die DC-6 von PMDG im Marketplace erscheinen.

Hoffe ja, das dann die Pipers von Just Flight auch für Xbox erscheinen und dann bin ich erst mal glücklich.

 

[ShortSeb]

Habe gerade den FS gestartet. Aus der Standard Version wurde nun bereits die GOTY Edition mit dem neuen Zeug.

 

[TomyLee]

Genau - das Update ist sozusagen die GOTY inkl. Fixes

 

[TomyLee]

So, die DC6 ist online aber total broken auf der Xbox... besser noch nicht kaufen.

So, die DC6 ist online aber total broken auf der Xbox... besser noch nicht kaufen.

So kenne ich PMDG aber nicht.

 

[TomyLee]

Es scheint was grundsätzliches zu sein -> die PC Version über den Marketplace hat die gleichen Probleme.

 

[TomyLee]

Sie ist so nice...

[baum2k]

Die solln mal die Fairchild C-82 bringen, damit ich Käpt'n Balu nachspielen kann und mit der Seegans rumfliegen kann

 

[TomyLee]

DIe DC-6 für Xbox wurde wieder vom Marktplatz entfernt. Aber PMDG ist am Thema dran - wird aber durch die Thanks Giving Woche alles ein wenig verzögern.

Aber die Just Flights Pipers kommen jetzt endlich für die Xbox.

 

[TomyLee]

Patchnotes für die Betatest des Quickfix...

 

[TomyLee]

Man kann der Beta jetzt noch joinen über die Xbox Insider App
