More concerning is that they know my address.

That's what makes it so brilliant.

Like Wreckfest, but with wings and maps

Sounds like my bachelor party

Yeah but you already knew your address so not really that impressive

It's fine, they are meant to bounce,

New? I was doing that in the early 2000s

I haven’t played a Microsoft Flight Simulator game in a really long time, so excuse me if this is a dumb question. Does the game use actual map data? Does it have entire countries?! That’s kind of wild and makes me want to check the new one out on GamePass.

I also want to crash into my own house.

Flight Gear flight simulator way better

FS2020 does. It uses bing maps satellite imagery, interprets the map and procrdurally generates buildings. It's impressive, but up close the buildings look generic and rarely accurate. Google Earth looks better.

However they do have hand made maps of big cities, these are very realistic.

The key is to send it too then when they're not at home.

Or at the very least comically broke into a million pieces like they used to in the old games. (I think I'm specifically thinking of 2000, but I don't remember for sure. When I try to look up MS Flight Sim 2000 crash, all I get is troubleshooting guides)

The only one I ever played with any kind of destruction was Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator.

For me it was always crashing into my own house in MS Flight Sim

BeamNG.drive

MSFM 2000 was the one (and only one) that I've played, and unfortunately no, it just pauses the game right on impact.

I wonder what's the psychological reason we fly planes into our houses in flight sim.

Hm, maybe it was 98? I forget which version I had as a kid, but it was one that had a flat image as the cockpit, definitely pre MSFS X.

I thought they nerfed crashes entirely with the new flight sim

remember the boeing shuttlecraft was haunted by mysterious noises.

They should make another one of those
