A-10a

Yes, MScenery is a joke rip-off developer. I bought their F-18 and it is so garbage I uninstalled it and made sure to leave a bad review on simmarket.

Iā€™m not buying anything from the Marketplace any more. Iā€™m also highly sceptical about getting anything from SimMarket as it seems their quality control is virtually non-existent. Orbx seem the opposite - completely reliable and trustworthy. Just Flight is good. Other than that I will wait for reviews of individual aircraft - Iā€™ve been burned too many times already.

Thatā€™s exactly right - Orbx and JustFlight stuff is curated. Marketplace and SimMarket are the same in that they donā€™t have quality control.

It is GARBAGE!!! Just wrote a post

But in all seriousness, itā€™s a business and something has to pay for continued development, infrastructure, Microsoft stock holders, etc. etc.

You just hope people do their research before purchasing, vote with your wallet.

Highly detailed model? Good joke and the reviewers did not waste time!

Thatā€™s unfortunately correct. IRIS is also one of these developers.

If you want to fly combat Aircraft stick to DCS.

No way. Except if you stay head down and you canā€™t see the (extremely limited) low quality scenery.

Folks - please stay on topic. The last dozen posts were completely OT, so we had to move them. Thanks.

Well well this A-10 yesā€¦
I have watched YouTube videos about that plane today afternoonā€¦

Here my review:


FS2004 A century of Flight users who got bored of the available stock planes finally get an A-10. Even if itĀ“s not as good as the FS2004 stock planes it is still a must-have - but beware only a GeForce4 MX with 128MB VRAM or a Vodoo5 6000 graphics card will be able to render all it`s details in full glory.

I would highly recommend buying it and pay without hesitation 89ā‚¬ for this DLC! :smiley:

cant find a mscenery cockpit screenshot for comparison

No the cockpit does not look like this :smiley: I have seen that new A-10 in a video and it has absolutely zero detail, not even the bolts on the cockpit glass frame are there, and the instruments look almost stock.

I had an awesome Aerosoft A-10 in the old FS2004 days which I bought on CD ROM, and I can assure you it was way better than the newest Hog release :wink:

What a glorious PC game shelf that was having the PSS Phoenix 777 and the Warthog back in these days with thick handbooksā€¦

my screenshot was the a10cii over syria map

This new A-10c II is also on my wishlist.
Awesome plane but not a high priority because I primary fly the DCS for the feeling of speed and ā€œriding a rocketā€, and only the Viper can truly give this feeling.
But the A-10 is of course an awesome and iconic plane.

Spoke to a guy who owns this MScenery A-10ā€¦ I donā€™t have it to provide screenshots, but apparently most instruments including altimeter and airspeed indicator are INOP in the cockpit of this thing and the gear retracts/extends only sometimes with no rhyme or reason as to why. This is on par with the other MScenery aircraft. They mostly have non-working instruments and have constant issues with gear and flaps not working.

Why Microsoft did accepted that on the Store? For a commission? Cā€™mon. This thing canā€™t sell much. Itā€™s a disservice to MSFS. MS should have a standard bare minimum quality to accept a product.

No fighter released msfs will compare to DCS ones.

Sorry, but this just isnā€™t true.
