- Experience realistically modeled
aircraft - 8 modeled aircraft, each with its own realistic flight models and
accurately detailed cockpits. You will experience the real flight performance of each
aircraft, and of course damage will affect specific aircraft systems on each plane.
- Fly over Real World Scenery -
Experience real world navigation through a world based on history and atlas data. Fly over
London, Paris and Berlin and see the landscape in full detail. See 3D objects as they
were, or follow coastal lines to reach your objective. Fly real-world navigation,
real-time navigation, and also in different types of weather.
- Expandability (ability to add
aircraft, missions, combat areas). Users will be able to import the thousands of planes
and scenery already created for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Planes imported will feature
damage and weapons systems. Imagine bringing in your Learjet from Flight Simulator into
WWII Europe or having a dogfight over 1990s New York City.
- Flexible Environment - Microsoft
Combat Flight Simulator allows you to define your experience. You can fly historical
missions and campaigns, engage in exciting & challenging dogfighting, enjoy "Free
Flight", push the flight models of the aircraft to the limit or jump into a Quick
combat experience. Want to practice for your next campaign on the Internet Gaming Zone?
Computer-generated opponents fly aircraft that use the same sophisticated flight models as
the user-flyable aircraft.
- Realistic Aircraft Flight Models.
Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator aircraft are based on proven and detailed Flight
Simulator models.
- Detailed, historically accurate
cockpits. We have created realistic cockpits with working instruments. Each fighter
cockpit is based on photos of the actual aircraft.
- Virtual cockpit with working
instruments. Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator will feature virtual cockpit views with
moving instruments.
- Detailed 3D-models (exterior
views) of aircraft, buildings, vehicles, and other 3D objects.
- Variety of user-flyable aircraft.
We're including eight distinct aircraft. In addition, we expect the third-party developers
and the Flight Simulator community to quickly expand the number of aircraft available.
- Force-feedback support. Microsoft
Combat Flight Simulator will use the industry standard technology and build on the success
of this feature in Flight Simulator 98.
- Multiplayer support over the
Internet, LANs, and direct connections. We have proven technology and the advantage of
immediate support and promotion on the Zone.
