No question was too weird, no comment was ignored. I visited them many times and have been always received with grace and friendship. We have been working with Asobo ever since. Not kinds of trees, but actual locations of trees around the world. Looking even closer I noticed that even the trees were accurate. Not just Frankfurt airport, but also my house. This was default sim, no add-ons, and the aircraft were pretty solid and the world was alive and looked totally amazing. And I have seen a lot of yaws hit the floor since then. But here I was, stick in hand, on a rather modest machine, in meeting room, seeing the sim at 50 fps on a 4k screen. We were all (and I mean everybody) assuming the videos we seen were rendered on some high end server farm. Now remember this was a good while ago, I think it was August 2019. They started with the question "what can we do to make your addons work?'.Īnd then I visited Asobo for the first time. Utterly different from any team at Microsoft that worked on FS. We had questions, we got questions, we met people in every part of the project. At that moment we already understood that the team from Microsoft was very willing to coordinate with 3rd party developers, but they also wanted some of the experience Aerosoft gathered in the last 27 years. So we could set up a quick meeting ( this is all before Corona, when we still could shake hands etc). The development team, Asobo, is based in Bordeaux and I live close to Bordeaux.

But very soon after the first announcement was done we were called by Microsoft to see if we had any interest in working with them. It is utterly incredible Microsoft and Asobo managed to keep this such a secret for over two years. We learned about the new sim at the same time as everybody else. Please allow me a personal comment I have been cropping up for close to a year. There is no difference between boxed retail and the verison MS sells directly.

The boxed retail version just gets you a nice box, printed manual and about 90 Gb you do not have to download.

So the simulator is in every way, 100% the same. So the boxed version makes it possible for people on a slower internet connection to get the sim installed without downloading the 'content'.

This is very much a simulator that depends on the cloud if you want to use it to its full potential.

When you install, the sim will updates all files immediately form the servers and you will get the very latest code for the simulator itself and all content is updated. Our DVD's contains 'all' of part 2, apart from the updates Microsoft and Asobo do between the moment the the DVD's are pressed and release. Optional online streamed content (this is an optional part of the sim) The world and aircraft delivered by Microsoft, (that content depends on the version (the 'content') that is around 90 GB, this is a mandatory part of the sim. The simulator code itself (the 'sim') that is around pretty small in size at 900 MB, this is a mandatory part of the sim. Microsoft Flight SImulator (that's the name, not FS2020) contains four major parts ( Note the sizes are estimates from what we know at this moment.) No, let me explain what the boxed version actually contains.

Any hardware requirements for the different PC versions (online - offline)?
