Real pilot tries MSFS 2020 in VR for first time with RTX4090

[blastofo]

I played MSFS2000 in 1999. I was put off by the graphics, since I was playing great looking games then like Unreal Tournament and Gran Turismo 2. I told myself that someday MSFS will have great graphics and more of the world, and when that happened, i'd get back into it. I couldn't imagine it would look this good, have the whole world, and be in VR.

Thanks for sharing this with us. Hearing the the sheer joy and disbelief in your pilot’s voice is so typical of first time experiences in VR. One VR ride and 2D just does not cut it anymore, at least for me. 😂

This is why I spend so much time in VR. It's hard to explain to people that haven't just how 'real' it all it.

VR is the only way to fly in MSFS. It’s thrilling! I have over 450 hours in VR alone

I remember when MSFS first came out I was so excited and enjoyed playing regardless of the ancient graphics of the time. And now, in VR I can’t help but be in awe ever time I put on that headset in MSFS2020. Younger crowd will never know just how far flight simulation has come.

Wait until you try it in VR with a full motion rig, RTX4090, that really does blow your mind..

It would have been nice to see more of the clips

Genuine astoundment coming from him was so good to hear. I love when people see things like this for the first time and they're just awestruck!

Thanks for sharing this! So much fun to see real pilots experiencing a finely tuned setup :)

Say's it all! Fantastic and thankyou for sharing

[Thezuule]

Seeing these videos makes me wish I was a lottery winner and could afford a Yaw2 and a proper set of flight controls and such.

Good thing it was on easy mode 😂 Yeah it's incredible how real it feels. Get in a 172, and it feels exactly the same. I use a Buttkicker and can feel the plane a little better. Not like real life, but close enough.

An E TICKET RIDE!!!...Better than a roller coaster ride at the Midway!!!! I am ready!!!

Yea… VR… very weird when you first try it. After about 5 years now, I’m seeing the limitations and working through them.

[VPsMethicalCondition-uyyi]

That sounds like VR flight Sim guy lol

An HTC headset gets him excited like this? Get him a Varjo Aero or Pimax Crystal!

If you want functionality on fight jets DCS is the way to go.

[Redridge]

only VR downside is not being able to see your controls. Do you think we will reach a point when we will be able to use the VR controls with our hands?

[vrgamingitalia]

Yeah, i can't play on a screen anymore, i was using VR still with htc vive, that was a screen door effect shit ahahah, now it starts to become a dream, for my new headset i'm choosing from bigscreen vr and pimax crystal, and i really don't know wich one to pick, they will cost +- the same :O

But a motion sym will make the final magic i think.

OFC i would never be able to fly in real life, so it's like a dream XD

For racing, i still prefer the motorbike in real life ahahah
