Visually, it has nothing on even Flightgear which I'm pretty sure probably has some combat mods. It just doesn't look and feel anywhere near as good as x-plane (which is a tall order because it is very good).Īnyway, I checked out some footage on Youtube.
But flightgear has some nice features and also a nice community. I've played with that a couple of times but always end up reverting to x-plane.

This seems more of a game with a focus on combat and less on realism or looks.Īn actual free, open source flight simulator that deserves mentioning is Flightgear. For example, I enjoy x-plane a lot which while not free (in either sense) of course has a large community providing both free and non free add-ons. They seem to make money with shareware provided by the same company. They seem to be free as in beer not as in speech. Interesting I was not aware of their existence.

Through a recent update did give the terrain textures. Instead, every polygon is colored individually. It wasn't pretty, but according to what I was told, passion wasn't exactly in short supply.įun fact: the game looks like that because it has no textures. Servers were ablaze with squadrons (~groups of people having their own paint schemes on certain aircraft, playing air-to-ground missions and air-to-air missions against other squadrons.) fighting and calling each other names. If you really wanted to ride the wave, I'd tell you to get yourself a time machine and go all the way back to 2005, 2006 or 2007. I'd love to be proven wrong though, but that was what I percieved. In the following years, however, server population declined even more, to the point where I would really consider it to be dead.

I have a bit of a thing for "dead" games, I wouldn't really consider 1-2 full servers at night to be dead, which is what we had. Sadly, even all those years back, the online scene was still what most would consider dead. I was big into this game when I was a teenager back in 2010, 2011 until 2015, also being very active in the community that made this page in that period.
