Discussion: World Update II: USA

Two questions here…

  1. Why not use the autopilot that tracks a flight plan, instead of AI?
  2. (Just out of curiosity.) Why are there so many sim users that don’t actually FLY the sim? For what it costs to upgrade a computer and install the flight sim, it seems like a waste. There are tons of You-Tube videos of people flying real airplanes all over the world. Wouldn’t it be easier to just have that running in the background?

(Not trying to start an argument here. I am truly curious about how people are actually using the sim/game. I know that there are very few actual pilots, compared to the entire user base and many use the assists and AI to help them learn. I am surprised, though, at the number of people wanting the AI to do the flying for them.)

This may be better in ‘General Discussion’ as I it may get out of hand.
If you would like to respond to this, please do it here…
