I watched the new video for 3.5 on the RF website and a lot of that stuff is gimmicky, but it does look neat.
They showed off a feature that will let you learn a maneuver one axis at a time and add more as you get better. Is that new to 3.5 or was that in 3.0 also?
Seems like the 3.5 release timing is a swing at FSOne. I wonder if we will see a new AFPD release this week?
NightOne,
I haven't seen the video, or played with that feature, but I do know that G3.448 didn't have that. I don't have any idea if we will see a new AFPD any time soon. I've been told that it does exist and this was not confirmed by an AFPD rep. IMO, a lot of the stuff in G3.5 isn't "gimmicky", but is in relation to FSone. FSone does have many features that G3 doesn't have until 3.5 comes out. However, G3.5 is an overall better sim. I seriously want to see FSone succeed. It is a great sim, but it's still in diapers. G3 never really got out of diapers until this last year. Give FSone a year and I'm sure G3(whatever the latest is at the time) and FSone(with all it's update patches) will be fairly even. This compitition is great for you, me, and the rest of the world. However, I don't think I'm ever going to switch to FSone.(Multiplayer is just worth so much more)
