DUBAI for FSX

<< < (2/3) > >>

ESzczesniak:
Not really interested myself either.

I'm first and foremost a fan of US airports.  I agree with the statements about smaller airports, but truthfully there are some major hubs that are lacking in FSX as well.  Namely, KDEN, KSFO, KLAX and KBOS.  Some great scenery in FS9 for those though, so I'm hoping for updates someday.  After that, I'd love to see the smaller airports.  KMKE, KSTL and KDTW are fairly high on my list, but just about anything that you can realistically fly a 737 or decent sized RJ to would make me happy.

After that, I like the major European hubs and then some of the Asian hubs.  I'd also like to see some of eastern Europe.  Based on what sells well, there may be some variations in order here, but this list isn't too disimiliar to others.

I'm sorry but I'm not either, KBOS was done by them, and I'm not complaining, even if its 5 years old.

Don't complain if you cant get them to work for FSX, if it doesn't work it doesn't work...

I would love nothing more than to have an fsx version of omdb as I live there now.
Having said that, I understand the fact that demand is not so high, and have to accept it. FSDT has to produce moneymakers, or they cease to exist. Plain and simple.

As far as the scenery itself is concerned, you can forget about a city scenery for at least a decade, as the whole city, including infrastructure is under construction.
It cannot be properly reproduced, even after the slowdown in the economy. It just changes greatly from day to day.

Again, please understand that I am all for it, but realize that it may be out of reach.
I am holding out for ft to redo "older" sceneries for fsx, but the issue (in my opinion) is that we would want it as a free update, as opposed to new scenery, and from a business point of view that is not healthy.

I think there is one comming out

But there website doesn't seem to be up and running.

boomsonic:
Yeh I would love to see a new Dubai scenery (its a massive connection point between Europe and the southern Hemisphere). Most people in here are either Americans or Europeans so they want FSDT to make and remake sceneries that are within 5 hours accessibility of their home airports, which is why we see them being the ultimate money-makers. For the more adventureous flight simmers who fly to destinations outside of these two continents, they will just have to put up with Imaginesim (not complaining), outdated Fly Tampa sceneries, freeware and the up and coming names such as ORBX etc to produce the goods.

It's a shame really but then again my opinion is very debatable, as I prefer to do long hauls to far away destinations, whereas most simmers prefer short to medium haul flights. I've accept FSDT won't do anything in Oz, Asia, Africa or the Middle East so I'll keep my fingers crossed for the other developers to do it  ;D
