I've never thought of that ever, why would you? Unless it was your first game or so....us dinosaurs who started playing before Wolfenstein 3D even came out, it was easy to see how thing are getting gradually better
I have a friend who says he used to fly in the sim near Seattle. I asked him why there? He said " You don't know Rode was teaching me how to fly in the sim" I said "Who?"
Aww 😢 this brings back so many good memories! My dad picked me up from school and straight to the games store when this came out! I was so excited that day!
@@varde450 That's the first thing I noticed. The ATC sounds so much more... realistic? In MSFS 2020 the voices are just too clear for radio comms, lol.
I Still Use the FS2004 too!! So glad to see others using. i'm Saving to buy a PC only for the new FS2024 Untill there, i'm with my beloved FS9. The Graphics are not that bad, and i have a couple of handmade paintings that i hold dear to my heart.
I remember playing this on my DELL PC. I was so happy I finally had my own computer in my room, plus it was strong enough to play FS2024 with good frame rate.
At least with this one you get a 120fps experience in 4K on a I9 13900K with 64GB of ram and a RTX 4090 with 24GB of dedicated memory, while with FS2020 and soon FS2024 you can't get higher than 30-40fps with this beast of a PC. Ridiculously high requirements are now the norm.
Eheh .... the same stutter in short final around 30-50 feet that we have with MSFS2020. I really hope they rewrote everything from scratch for 2024: I don't care for Zoo simulator or Walkies simulator, I just want it to run smoothly and not to ruin immersion.
2D cockpit brings back memories; quite a bit easier than a 3D one tbh! I do want to say that for FS2004 and FSX, the AI voice quality is miles better than MSFS2020.
Thanks to either crappy Windows or gpu drivers update nowadays both fs9 and FSX cant be run fullscreen unless you want to have lags while alt-tabbing...
Hi, you will need to do the following Right-click on the fs2004 program and click on ‘properties’. Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 7 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation. Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists. Hopefully it solves your problem
It is, but I have expanded it massively and added new terminals and another runway. One of the great things I like about FS2004. Most of the videos you see here have airports that are massively expanded.
@@LufthansaAviation This is the timeline within the multiverse where the referendum of 2012 went in favour of the third runway, and they haven't stopped expanding since.
Doesn't look anything like Munich, EDDM doesn't have 3 runways. terminals are all over, nothing like the real airport and the surroundings don't look anything like Munich area either.
True. That's because I manually expand the airport using AFCAD (which doesn't give great graphics), and I turn down the textures and display settings, otherwise you will see trees and houses springing up on newly built runways. I might do a video on this to show you
I remember thinking "this can't get any better" back in the days.
msfs 2020/2024 *now* : Am I a joke to you??
I've never thought of that ever, why would you? Unless it was your first game or so....us dinosaurs who started playing before Wolfenstein 3D even came out, it was easy to see how thing are getting gradually better
I started with FS2000, boxed version. Inside there were CDs and a book by Rod Machado on how to start "flying". I still have this game to this day.
Same here!
I have a friend who says he used to fly in the sim near Seattle. I asked him why there? He said " You don't know Rode was teaching me how to fly in the sim" I said "Who?"
when times were simpler
This brings back memories! Thank you!

Wow, Munich looks green this time of the year
Damn I thought this was real at first
Lol
😂
Thanks for the development from then to today :) Sure dont miss those days, hahaha.... So glad there have been development...
Bro, this one brought good memories, I miss Maigs Field ❤
How was the ATC so much better then!? Awesome stuff!!
I'm with you. The 2020 edition ATC sounds less realistic than this. Can't complain about the graphics but this somehow is more authentic.
Cabin view actually good and it runs so much better 😂
And atc sound good.😅.
@@varde450 That's the first thing I noticed. The ATC sounds so much more... realistic? In MSFS 2020 the voices are just too clear for radio comms, lol.
OMG, this is probably my 1st MFS I've had. I played it sooo much... It is incedible how these games changed in years...

This Munich Airport looks wild xD
I remember purchasing this and been so happy with it. To be fair, it still looks pretty good to me.
"Long Live to The FS2004"!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can't believe I still remember Shift Z for the red text, then shift 1-0 for all the popups. Shift+4 was the throttles lol
FS2004 was the first flight sim i ever played and got me into this! Nice to see clips from it
Me too ❤
I remember playing this on my DELL PC. I was so happy I finally had my own computer in my room, plus it was strong enough to play FS2024 with good frame rate.
Great Simulator I have FS1998, FS2002, FS2004 and FS X !!!!
Great video!!!!
Thank you
My first flight simulator FS 2004, well before I had this game I got from a cheerios package "RC Daredevil" I called it a flight simulator... 🙃
I saw the thumbnail and I was like “hey I remember playing this back in college!!” Still sounds good today honestly, the ATC isn’t that bad at all
Вау. Да это же легенда.)))
MSFS 2004 is just like MSFS 2020 without photogrammetry on.
Really! It was been my 500 hours on line flight Sim. The best I played
Me too, i was made today KBFI - PANC - KDEN and KLAS with 767 PIC... so good.
i can say fs2004 still kicks butt even with modern sims today :) fs2004 has features that modern sims should have
And it has less autopilot bugs than FSX lol
lol very ture
The best ATC
It's a shame the 2d cockpit is not available anymore. Comes really handy for IFR and for didactic flights
Would be cool if you played the missions
Butter
best times
Simmer since fs2000 also xp11 till fs2020. Fs9 is sure the best
Thanks for the memories but Msfs2020 is so much better 😊
FS9 was peak Microsoft Flight Simulator. In fact, that time was peak Microsoft. Been downhill ever since.
Why does this ATC sound more realistic then MSFS2020s AI ATC. XD
God sake, how do you fly with that toolbar at top?
At least with this one you get a 120fps experience in 4K on a I9 13900K with 64GB of ram and a RTX 4090 with 24GB of dedicated memory, while with FS2020 and soon FS2024 you can't get higher than 30-40fps with this beast of a PC. Ridiculously high requirements are now the norm.
You don't need an RTX 4090 to play MSFS 2020 at full FPS, but you do need an RTX card 🤣🤣
nostalgia

I do want to say that for FS2004 and FSX, the AI voice quality is miles better than MSFS2020.
well, FS2004 actually looked much better with some custom mesh, textures, sceneries and aircrafts 😅
No addons either, what an absolute menace
there was trees and buildings in 2004 should turn them on in settings
Except that will grow on runways. Cause I expand airports using AFCAD. There will be a video on this
Thanks to either crappy Windows or gpu drivers update nowadays both fs9 and FSX cant be run fullscreen unless you want to have lags while alt-tabbing...
It's actually a DirectX bug that has existed since DX6.0!
Lol yesterday came out the preored for msfs24 lol
ATC is better than in 2020!
How many control towers does an airport need?
Yes ;)
Will this plane be coming to ex bawx?
ILS Appr on Munich is 5000 Feet
@@GlurakkJTV1 Thank you
Do you play with any joysticks? I remember trying to use the arrow keys and failing miserably
Yes I do. But sometimes I play with the keys, like you have said, not ideal
The ATC is much better as MFS2020!
I thought this was fs2000 or 98! My fsx steam looks close to msfs ! But that fuck loads of addons and tweaks!
Just curious, does this B787 have a VC available?
Not this one. The VC actually becomes a wing view
since when has eddm 3 rwys ?
Never, but I added it in the game
Buenas , solo anda para Windows 7? , lo probe en Windows 10 y no abre

wait...the ground handling is literally better than msfs hahaha

B787, wright ?
Yes, although the panel is wrong
@@StillusingFS2004 Yes.
I still use fs2004 but i have some problem with frame rate in some airport...... i use win10, someone have some suggestions?
I have as well and I usually turn down a lot of settings, which makes my graphics look very bad as you can see from my videos
40 to 60fps and there is literally nothing on the ground. Getting 60 to 80fps in MSFS. xD
Doesn't look anything like Munich, EDDM doesn't have 3 runways. terminals are all over, nothing like the real airport and the surroundings don't look anything like Munich area either.
It's an expanded Munich airport using AFCAD
This guy Munichs
FSX and FS2004 is the same shit ? Same esenarios ?
ATC was soooo much better, microsoft jerks stoped in time
tbf while it was 20 years ago FS2004 did not look this bad, heck FS98 has more ground textures than this... your setup sucks.
