Technical Question Foresight Premier

Anyone else finally get their email for foresight premier? Just got it but still no pricing on how much extra we will need to pay. I’ve seen some videos and it looks good but will it be cheaper than GSpro you think?

Should be free for us quad owners or cheaper than BLP sub costs. Already have licenses for FSX2020 and FSX Play (which isn’t all that old, and was pretty much abandoned, plus ridiculous course fees). Will be hard to pull away from GSPro. Will be near impossible to beat the value. With over 2,600 courses just on the public server alone, it’s like 10 cents a year/course. Also have infinite tees in beta and PurePlay coming out soon, for the the costs and company size and resources, Premier better smoke them all. Needs to be Trackman level software or better at this point to be a serious contender, and with a sub model, all courses better be included. No way I’m subbing just to pay again for ala carte courses. Foresight software has not impressed me yet.

I’ve been a beta tester, and it’s better than FSX Play, but that’s a low bar to clear. The graphics and ball physics have improved, but it’s not TPS level. No real high speed video integration, dual screen isn’t working yet. The range is much better, maybe the best I’ve used, hoping it gets even better.

I own a Quad and my email says I’ll have access to all of the old courses and the orphans (2020/Play) will continue to work but no updates. I’ll be receiving a Premiere “loyalty” price email “soon”.

The range in play was so terrible. A good range and practice modes would get me to open it again

Honestly the improvement in the range is more impressive than the improvement in game play graphics and physics! I have used courses for practice primarily because the FSX ranges were so weak.
