    Will wait for the VR support until I decide to take the plunge, those graphics are too good for a standard computer monitor.

    Yah, I play in 3440x1440 resolution ultrawide. I will probably get the Reverb G2 headset after it launches.

    I will try and post better pics on here to really show what the sim is capable of.

    Storm over Dubai. I keep on going back to Dubai lol.

    Also, is there a way to upload full size images that appear as a thumbnail until you open them? Trying to get better quality when posting to this forum.

    God damn. Someone needs to develop a combat flight sim add-on then it won’t just be “flying around”.

    This game's hardware requirement is no joke. Even with 2080Ti running only at 1080p Ultra you'll only get 40-47fps.

    For flight sims though even 30fps is completely fine for most scenarios, it's not like a FPS game or something where higher frame rates can make the difference between winning and losing.

    The game also apparently likes lots of threads and most people are only running 4-8 cores which is low these days. It definitely needs a lot of power though.

    Do you guys think WASD will be enough to play this game? I don't want to buy a cheap knock off flight stick.
