Pretty sure that VNAV doesn’t do anything in the Longitude but for example I don’t know if I’m using TO/GA in a wrong way or if that just don’t work either. (It also cannot fly more than 2.5 hours before running out of fuel…)
Can’t get VNAV to work in the CJ4, don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or it doesn’t work.
Tried the 787 and while I created a flightplan in the world window it’s not in the FMS like in other planes, tried using NAv and VNAV and the plane just circled to the right…but I might do something wrong? or it’s broken? Who knows. That’s what you get for double the price.
I understand that I payed premium for what is essentially an early beta, but please at least tell me what things are not implemented yet. Otherwise I waste so much time trying to understand the systems and get them to work while there’s no way of making them work.
So is there a list of not implemented/broken things?
Ok but if you release a broken/unfinished game then at least tell people exactly what is missing. Or better: Don’t offer things that aren’t working. Why put the AI pilot in the game if it’s not working? (I assume it’s a general problem? I guess I can’t do anything wrong if it’s just pressing a button)
But based on the answers it seems there’s no list and I have to go through forums to find every time I have problems if it’s because this is essentially a beta and not yet implemented, if it’s a bug, or if I’m doing it wrong.
There’s obviously a ton of “placeholder” features in the sim that will be worked on eventually.
Come one folks…yes we bought a full open world sim work in progress with AAA pricetag.
The quicker you accept and realize this the better.
But at least tell me what is broken. Where’s the information that VNAV is not working?
To quote the “KNOWN ISSUES” post from 17. Nov:
VNAV can overshoot the climb speed. Disconnecting the AP after take-off and re-engaging it will limit the overshoot impact
So according to them it should work just not quite correctly. For me it does nothing. People on the forums say it never worked. So what is actually happening?
If I would have known everything that DOESN’T work in the sim I would never have spent $1700 to upgrade and then another $120 to buy the sim. MS has failed to even fix basic things like the weather and GPS functionality. Costly mistake. I’m reloading XPlane as I’m writing this because it’s much better for IFR use and controlling the weather. And I’m not hesitating to mention this to all my pilot friends who asks me how FS2020 is.
I’ve been around too long to ever be that optimistic of MSFS’s initial release.
I expected to pretty much pay for continued beta testing for a couple years atleast and well here we are. What pushed me to hit that “$120 purchase now button” was just being anxious of wanting to experience what they had built so far. Sure enough my expectations were on point, I simply got to try the new platform and see gorgeous visuals and then I uninstalled and knew I would have to wait for it to be my primary go to as a sim.
I feel for all of you who are new to full open world flight simulators and were expecting lots of polish and feelings of a complete product. I would have definitely informed you otherwise back then before you purchased that this would not be the case, even without alpha testing this product.
Was my $120 wasted?
Nahh this WILL eventually be my primary sim within the next year or two easily.
MSFS is the future no doubt about it. They’ll get this right!
I have used this and VNAV works based on the way he says to implement it. I have copied and edited his file as I don’t need all the pictures, changed some of the wording as his descriptions don’t make sense to me in some cases. I have also added some additional information. I have copied his work, so cannot paste it here because it’s been plagiarized, which is wrong. It is a good guide. FWIW-After patch 1.11.6.0, the 787 seems to fly a bit better, but it blew out all my joystick settings so those have to be re input.
