But by purchasing this kind of HOTAS equipment (or YOKE, steering wheels like Boeing, depending on the airplane style you prefer), you can finally fly in “Intermediate” mode with complete peace of mind, see even in realistic mode, and there, it’s a whole other delirium! But you will have much the same experience as a Forza 7 type racing game with the Xbox controller ^^!īut overall, it works more on large carriers because the reaction time is not very important, and the game remains playable easily.

You should know that Flight Simulator is unplayable with the keyboard / mouse (well it’s really difficult), but the game becomes very interesting with a simple Xbox One controller, accompanied by your keyboard and your mouse to press the buttons of your cockpit directly on the screen. If you’re playing ‘easy’ and playing ‘on the outside’, having a HOTAS won’t really give you more immersion – it will even be a bit of a gimmick in the end. Well, in terms of immersion: yes, it definitely brings a plus! But be careful, it depends on how you play.

It was not planned at all, and I simply installed the game because it is available in Xbox Game Pass – it must be said that currently, the first month is € 1, the following months at 4 € on PC and for 12 € / month, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate gives you access to PC + Console Game Pass, Xbox Live Gold and xCloud, difficult to be more competitive!Īs for this joystick, I know that a lot of people have asked me a question: is Fligtht Simulator more immersive with a HOTAS? Is it an essential accessory for playing Flight Simulator? Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is the first flight simulator I play seriously.
