I've been reading up on the next installment of MSFS, due out later this year, and it seems really intriguing.
They are using Bing Maps + Azure to render the entire planet (Azure procedural generation apparently fills in the gaps). There are about 2PB of data that they will stream to you in real time for the rendering...
Other impressive features include live real life flight traffic rendered in game, live weather patterns, etc.
Are any Aggies here into flight sims? I'm wondering what a good entry level setup would be, potentially giving me a foundation to upgrade later if I decide to go deeper into the flight sim world.
My computer (RTX 2080, i7 8700K, 32GB Ram, 1TB NVME) should be enough to handle the game itself, but I have no idea where to start on peripherals...
Also any general tips for dipping my toes in this genre would be greatly appreciated.
