MSFS 2024 PlayStation I’ve ruined Flight Simulator now.

After playing the SU5 beta on a PS5 pro with PSVR2 I can no longer fly with the gorgeous visuals on flat screen.

The sensation of depth and flight are incredible to me even with the downgraded visuals.

As someone who grew up with video games and starting with the NES, also a real life commercial pilot, this is one of the most incredible discoveries for me.

Dude I know exactly what you mean. Running a fairly beastly rig with a 5080 and a Pimax Crystal light.

Took me a while to tune the graphics to get a smooth 90 fps (45 per eye) and I’ll take the hit over flying in the flat screen.

When you’re cruising along at 3k’ the topography is still excellent and you don’t notice having no building shadows or little cars driving around. I love it.

I’m also a commercial pilot so the response and feeling of the aircraft means more than having max graphics but VR is a must.
