FS2020 the best simulator?

No offence but 90% of that video is graphics. Its all nice and fine but there is clear evidence that the Asobo teams knowledge does not extend far beyond PPL level, the spin explanation is already wrong for example. You can see they have experience in game development, everything looks truely fantastic but from a simulation stand point having nice graphics is only part of the equation.

Will it eventually get there? Probably but is FS2020 the best flight SIMULATOR, not at this moment in my opinion. It is the best looking “kind of simulator” for sure. There is just too much missing and broken functionality to really call it flight simulator, especially in the IFR department.

I made a whole list of things, most of which was already available at release of FSX or even FS9, voting is appreciated.

It seems like there are really two camps right now, on one side you have the people interested in the nice graphics and they are happy. And on the other side there is hardcore flight simmers who don’t give much about the nice graphics or are at least more interested in the simulation part, and for them its a different story, if you take the nice visuals away there is not that much to be excited about.
