I have a t248 wheel and bought FH6 Premium. I’ve been loving the game! But sometimes I wish there were a few more tracks in it to have some online competition on tracks.
I play on series X. Would motorsport be a good purchase to play alongside FH6?
Thank You.
I play on PS5 Pro and PSVR2.
I’ve been having a blast on the game. And I mainly fly small planes/jets.
However all the Hotas are sold out here in UK and everyone selling them secondhand for £50 more than when there new!
I’m 40 in 2 weeks and want to treat myself to one. But I’m not sure if it’s worth buying a secondhand one at such a higher price.
Will it make a Big enough difference to the experience for it to be worth the cost? Or is duel sense fine?
When I got my wheel for GT7 that made a big difference. But that has force feedback etc etc.
Thanks for any advice!
Hi all!
It’s my 40th birthday soon and I’ve very much been enjoying MSFS in VR. Here in the UK the PS5 Hotas is sold out everywhere. I’m trying to work out if it’s worth paying the crazy prices of the secondhand ones. Normally there £80 and currently selling for around £120-£150 secondhand.
Is it a game changer in VR? If it makes the experience A Lot better I will pay. However if it doesn’t make that much difference I’d rather save £120 and keep using duel sense.
Title says it all really.
I have about 300 hours in MSFS and now about 30 hours in VR. I think it’s the whole scale of the world and live weather and times and other players that really pulls me in.
However,
At times it’s not the most exciting, and can just end up sat there for 25 mins not doing anything.
So as someone who very much enjoys MSFS, is aces of thunder worth it? How does it visually compare? How does it handle? Is it exciting and thrilling? Or am I actually better flying my marketplace bought war plane (the boomerang), around MSFS instead and pretend I’m going to aircraft shows instead and saving myself the cost of Aces If Thunder?
I’ve had this Casio watch for about 18 months now. But about 6 months ago I fancied joining the modern world and buying a watch the was like a personal doctor, coach and receptionist all in one. Sounds great doesn’t it?
Well actually that watch has been living in my drawer for 4 months. After 2 months of having to charge the watch every 3 days, it telling me I’m too stressed and to take it easy, it telling me to slow my day down, while also flashing messages at me every 5 minutes with people I need to get back to for work and the fact I had to tap my watch to see the time etc etc I decided enough was enough.
I put my trusty Casio on that simply tells me the time and dates no tapping it, no beeping and vibrating every 5 minutes, no judging, it just does perfectly what it needs to do.
I turn 40 in a few weeks and fancy a little Casio upgrade. Nothing too expensive. Up to £50 limit.
I’ve been looking at the Casio 1200 whd (the royale?). If anyone has any views on that watch or any other suggestions that would be great!
I don’t see many people comment on the shimmering, more the low resolution.
But I just want to confirm everyone is getting a weird shimmering with clouds. It’s like if it’s a cloudy day then buildings have a shimmering/flickering outline, same as hills and mountains.
I’m on PS5 pro
It’s so bad for me that I genuinely have to change the weather forecast to no clouds or every outline of an object flickers that’s in-front of the clouds.
Is everyone else getting this?
I’m self employed and have just done my taxes with my wife for 2025-2026. The total earnings for year came out at £33,000.
We are currently going through all my receipts and deducting them. Obvious things like tools, van repairs, percentage of phone bill, mileage, insurances etc etc have all been put through.
I was wondering if there is anything else that people seem to miss or not know about?
My home address is my business address. My work is mostly away from home, but I still have to work 1-2 hours a day from home.
Sonos there anything most people don’t realise they can claim for ?
I know an accountant would help, but to be honest I’m a sole trader who makes £30k a year. Me and my wife have done my taxes it for the last 6 years and seems straight forward. My wife is employed full time in a managerial role. But just not sure if we keep missing anything we could be reducing my tax bill with.
Thank You.
Playing on ps5 Pro and PSVR2.
Someone in a forum said they enjoy going Oil Rig hoping in stormy weather with a helicopter. They said it looked and felt unreal!
I can confirm after doing this , that it was the best experience I’ve ever had in any game in VR. The sea looks crazy good, you can feel the cold and wet and it looks so real.
The oil rigs I used were based in the North Sea, north of UK. Flying between them with rain pounding down, wipers on and rainbows was an other worldly experience!
Had to take a photo of the Sphinx. Landed my helicopter , got out, and couldn’t help but just stand there for a few minutes taking it all in, in VR.
Since MSFS2024 has come out, I haven’t even started GT7
Flew round the Lake District tonight looking for some sheep. Decided to land and have a walk looking for some. Got to the top of this hill and turned around and the view was breathtaking.
So I’ve just got PSVR2 and been enjoying a week in VR Flight Sim.
But after I take off and enjoy the view and engage autopilot etc etc, what do you do for the next ‘X’ amount of minutes until you actually need do anything again?
I don’t even do that long of flights (normally 40 mins), but I end up just sat there haha. I had a thought that maybe in the future they’ll have it so you could actually link your phone to the IPad in the plane and watch and control it while flying in VR. Pop a bit of YouTube on while flying at 36,000 feet and keep checking everything’s ok every 5 mins.
I was thinking maybe put an audio book in in the background?
Do any of you have anything you do that keeps you entertained in VR flights, especially ones where you will use AP?
Thanks
I don’t mean to put everyone in the same boat, but it does seem like most people want to fly the big passenger airliners?
I’m just curious what the reason is? I now play in PSVR2 on ps5 pro, but the game definitely struggles with the airliners and seems pretty darn smooth with normal prop Planes and jets…any of the smaller planes or helis really.
Also whenever I’ve tried a big airliner it’s like all my screen is just took up by massive control panels and I can’t really enjoy any of the views and seen as you fly above 30,000 feet you spend hours with not much of a view anyway.
I personally much prefer to do shorter 15mins-45 mins flights in a small double prop plane. Cruise around 8,000 feet and have a smooth experience.
So why does it seem like most people want to fly the big airliners? Is it just because most people want to feel like a commercial pilot? I pretend I’m delivering important cargo or medicine supply’s to hospitals in the UK, but I guess that’s just my thing.
Would love to hear though!
So I really enjoy Flight Sim and have been playing it on my PS5 Pro, and loving it even more on PSVR2.
I’m in the UK and my wife’s letting me treat myself to a gaming item for my 40th birthday (which is in 1 month). I’ve been really hoping I would be able to get the Hotas for the ps5. But it’s sold out everywhere and Thrustmaster don’t really give any dates when they may be back in stock.
I don’t want to pay the 50% added cost that everyone on eBay is selling them at, it just feels wrong. So has anyone got any ideas where else I may be able to get one from?
I was hoping to do a tour of south Scotland with a Hotas in flight sim on my 40th , that dream seems to be fading :(
