Exploring the Skies: Flight Simulator 2024 Technical Alpha Test! HDR on.

[@ThomasGrillo]

Thanks for the demo. Very sorry they didn't serve up your trial run until so late.

[@thesupremeginge]

It would have been nice to have at least another day with the sim. Thanks

That btw isn't snow on trees. It is frost. It is baked in satellite imagery, but when grass freezes, it turns a bit white. It is cold conditions without snow that lead to that specific white ish effect.

What's the singing at 30:25? Game looks gorgeous in HDR! Thanks for playing in it. I know most monitors don't support HDR, but mine does (it's a mini-LED, not an OLED), and few games use HDR well. This one does!

[@thesupremeginge]

That's a very poor rendition of On Top Of Old Smokey. HDR is becoming more better in games overall. Sea of Thieves also does it will. With Flight Simulator it's fantastic. It's amazing good monitors are getting.

[@JoshScarfe]

Its actually a good flight simulator you know! I love the avatar customization option! And the overall scenery...

[@thesupremeginge]

I mostly agree. But the avatar customization could be a lot better. I briefly mention it in the video, but in Elite Dangerous, about 8 years ago, had a better one, it was so good my brother though I somehow scanned my face.

Wonder how they are going to do the aurora borealis

[@stachowi]

If you look at the global preview they have it

[@deepayandas6860]

the background sound at starting of the video is taken from DIVISION 2 menu sound.

[@thesupremeginge]

Could be.. After the first week of that game, I turned the music off. Game soundtracks do make a great source of music without having to worry about copyrights.

[@einherz]

they're even doesn't looks related... they just hard argue before... every related after that, looks like that. she would take train, he - helicopter, when they argued they lost time window for both, and take cessna, so they are really angry inside, just talking civilize with you, and try to calm their nervous.

[@mammid9622]

What the actual fuck are you talking about right now…

[@imacmill]

Did I see The Milky Way in your night flight, or was that clouds?

[@thesupremeginge]

Space clouds, they're the best.

[@imacmill]

@@thesupremeginge LOL! OK.

[@mohamadpooya6312]

Hello, I have the 2020 version / do we have to buy it to upgrade to the 2024 version or can it be updated to the previous version???

[@thesupremeginge]

It's a new game, so you'll most likely have to buy it. If you are on game pass, then you're good to go. Although I don't really recommend game pass anymore, although I do still like the game pass for PC.

[@infinite7633]

Oh hell no, that dosen't look like msfs 2024, 8:30 did you turn your graphic settings down to the lowest 😭😭

[@thesupremeginge]

Not sure if you got the time wrong or what you were seeing. Anyway, I'm almost done with a new video that shows both games side by side. That clip at 8:30 is in it, so you can see the new vs old. I assure you that the new one looks way more like the actual spot in the real world.

[@gregpruitt1647]

Why does every single video seem intent on showing the arcade-like flights???

[@thesupremeginge]

I can't say for all the videos on the internet since I have not seen any other videos. I've been too busy, been meaning to check that obsidanant guy. But that Tech Alpha only had a hand full of things to do. My email was sent to my junk folder, so I didn't get on till the last night, but from my limited experience that was the only challenge. Also, it's not really fair to call that an arcade flight. It's as much as a sim as the rest of the game. It's just a racing challenge. I'm sure if they put more of those in the game, people would have showed more. And the photo mode challenges were pretty weak and a bit confusing but at the time i was in a rush since the demo was ending soon. So, I just included a bit of everything I tried in it. Hope that clears things up. Have a great day. 👍
