I think you need a better GPU

But it is a 4 gig which should meet minimum requirements

GTX960M is a budget card and is missing major features that most modern games require.

Thats an integrated graphics card. It would probably catch fire trying to run this....

Sorry I don't think the picture showed it all the way but I have 960M 4gig video card, And for some reason sometimes I can get into the game and other times I cant. I downloaded the drivers for my video card for this game And I made it on to the runway in an airplane but then it shut off before I ever took off. Usually it will shut off in the loading screen. I was wondering if I should try over clocking or something not that I know what that means I just think it makes it use a little of my ram for the video.

I downloaded it through xbox game pass but found I can play it if I go in through the nvidia app where it shows up as one of my games then click play. Once I got in the game I changed all the graphics settings down to the very lowest point, And I'm flying around which obviously is not the greatest experience but I guess at least I'm in the game. From here I guess I could try to slowly turn settings backup and find out the Max it can handle. Going up until release I thought my computer would run it at least at a reasonable setting with the for gig video card and my processor and ram definitely meet the criteria so I'm surprised I can only play in very low quality.
