there are lakes, coastlines, big cities and famous landmarks like Eiffel tower and the Parthenon. TECHNICAL- It mostly feels great to fly in the world of flight simulator X. final verdict on the interface: you will need at least a decent HOTAS joystick and a second monitor in order, at least partially, alleviate frustration a hat switch on the joystick is a convenient feature, but still you would have to let the controls and grab the mouse in order to use the clickable instruments. you will constantly need to turn and zoom the camera to the instruments you need to see and use, forcing you to let the controls of the aircraft. the reason for this is that one monitor cannot fit all the instruments inside it. The in-game interface on the other hand, is a bit of a chore without a head tracking device, even if you are using a HOTAS joystick. INTERFACE- the interface in the menus is good and it does it's job. However many aircraft are legacy, ported from the previous entry FS2004 and often not all buttons are clickable. Clickable **** are a convinience as memorizing each and every keyboard combination might be time consuming and annoying. fortunately, the save feature allows as many saves as you want and whenever you want, sparing you the frustration. Missions will gradually get very challenging, and the more advanced missions will require large amounts of effort and lots of trial and error to pull off. tutorial missions do a fairly good job on teaching you the basics and some more advanced flight techniques. GAMEPLAY-The sim itself now is fairly easy to learn. For the type of game FSX is, this is not really a flaw. MISSIONS-as you would expect, flight simulator X doesn't have a story with missions being an exception, which have a self contained plot each, which most of the time are nothing special. As a flight simulator fan i came to love FSX, but this did not blinded me towards its flaws.
