My current Win10 gaming machine will be my last Windows computer. Will this run on Win10 or Linux?

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Considering it's made by Microsoft, I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest it's compatible with Windows. Specifically Windows 10 and 11 I believe.

The last version barely runs on Linux and the one before that was made before computers could have more than 4gb of ram and it crashes all the time (regardless of if you use Windows or Linux). Flight Simulator 2004, the one before that, has shitty enough graphics that it never hits the 4gb limit so stupidly enough that's the most playable one.

Wouldn’t be the first time MS tried to coerce people onto W11.

Doesn't mean, micro-shit won't break it for the Linux enjoyers

[–] burgersc12@mander.xyz 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Is that even possible? Wine works with the 2020 version why wouldn't it work (or be updated to work) with the 2024 one??

Well ea used anti cheat to kill off half of my bf library already...

So it is possible. I guess if mciroshit didn't do it for earlier version, I don't think they will do it here tbh especially after activision anti trust review

[–] burgersc12@mander.xyz 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, anti-cheat sure but who's cheating in MS Flight Sim? Its not a shooter ffs

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 2 points 6 months ago

My point was that clown corp will uses some bullshit ... Call it for your own good and deny the Linux enjoyer his game.

But yeah I am with ya!
