June 10, 20197 yr From reading that and the X-Box insider forum info it appears that the new sim will be X-Box and Windows 10 PC's. No support for Windows 7. That alone kills the deal for me.........Doug Intel 10700K @ 5.1Ghz, Asus Hero Maximus motherboard, Noctua NH-U12A cooler, Corsair Vengeance Pro 32GB 3200 MHz RAM, RTX 2060 Super GPU, Cooler Master HAF 932 Tower, Thermaltake 1000W Toughpower PSU, Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit, 100TB of disk storage.

June 10, 20197 yr I have had a nightmare getting signed into the Xbox screen even though I have an account and even changed my password. Had to quit due to an appointment. Will try again later, I hope everyone else will have better luck. Thank you.

June 10, 20197 yr I'm sure the new sim, due out during 2020, will obviously NOT be optimised with an obsolete operating system, which, in itself, is not optimised for modern current hardware. Robin "Onward & Upward" ... To the Stars, & Beyond...

David Zambrano, CFII, CPL, IGI I know there's a lot of money in aviation because I put it there.
June 10, 20197 yr And the good news is that you can still upgrade to Windows 10 for free. Win7 to Win10 is definitely an upgrade.
June 10, 20197 yr Probably won't help my chances but I signed up with all my 5 emails when it opened yesterday. I'll admit, I'm desperate.

June 10, 20197 yr Just now, Boomer said: Will this be hardcore or light weight gamer fare? That's up to the third party support to decide. P3D can be played with an Xbox controller out of the box, doesn't have a study-tier plane by default, doesn't even have a weather engine. By that definition, P3D would practically be a lightweight arcade game.
