I hope SimMarket will allow me to review this despite having purchased directly from CaptainSim online store. If so…
This is a good add on. Not being an actual pilot I can only be so sure about accuracy of flight modeling and behaviors but being a experienced flight sim enthusiast. That said I believe this to be a pretty good simulated representation of the real world plane. Obviously it’s not going to be dead perfect, but it certainly has the systems and characteristics that all come together to deliver what feels as close as possible for FSX. In other words it feels right. Is it worth full price? Well that would depend on the simmer I guess. One who loves the 777 and can’t find a better option elsewhere (I couldn’t find any?) then yes. Everyone else might want to wait for a sale like I did. I won’t rub it in but I did get a stellar deal on a flash sale from Capt.Sim direct.
All that aside, this is a fairly deep sim of a really cool real world plane. Some things might require you to RTFM in order to use properly, while the average experienced simmer will find most systems to behave intuitively needing little manual reading.
I am surprised to find that unlike say the CS727, this 777 does not have Pilot or crew announcements, or a built in passenger cabin view. If you want to see the passenger cabin you have to start a flight selecting the 1 and only passenger cabin aircraft and enjoy your flight ONLY from the passenger point of view. To pilot the plane you have to do it from the cabin using the 2D panels, no VC! This really bugs me and is why only 4 stars. How come CS would give a passenger cabin view with any livery as well as the complete VC with the 727 but NOT the 777? It doesn’t make any sense? Especially for the heavy price tag. I should knock it to a 3 star but since it’s the only currently available 777 of high design standards (the AFS triple seven doesn’t count as a legit option) I can’t be that harsh.
Letting the crazy weird passenger cabin view as a separate option to select and fly aside this is a very good plane, and I am enjoying it. The sounds are very well done and flying by hand is delightful. I do recommend it but if you can wait, do wait for a sale.
Based on use with FSX Steam win 10 3.3ghz i7 16GB Ram Intel UHD630 integrated GPU excellent frame rates!
Sehr tolles Flugzeug mit zahlreichen Funktionen und Details. Ich würde sagen dass die Captain Sim 777 sogar besser ist als die von PMDG. Wenn man sich das neue Update von Captain Sim runter ladet.
BOUGHT THIS AIRCRAFT THE OTHER DAY AND I HAVE TO SAY CAPTAIN SIM YOU HAVE DONE A FANTASTIC JOB WITH THIS 777 THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR FSX AND I EVEN GOT THE ADDONS WELL DONE FROM A VERY HAPPY SIMMER WELL WORTH THE PRICE :) ;)
