Exactly my choice!! :crossed_fingers:

  1. Improve pop outs FPS around DX11
  2. Online AI traffic and aircraft behavior, roll out longer, take off longer, leave the runway faster, reasonable climb rates.
  3. Online weather.
  4. ATC
  5. Make all buttons and switches more programmable, not just mouse accessible.

  1. Fix ATC - in line with all the comments above
  2. Improve real time traffic/AI traffic behaviour (at least now they take off though)
  3. Fix the approach flyback bug
  4. Keep improving live weather
  5. Colours/gamme adjustments for VR (and more generally)

  • AI traffic behavior (unreal takeoff and landing)
  • More consistent ATC (assignment of non-compliant runways with weather)
  • loading time too long
    -non-compliant clouds (volcanic ash)

1- Make an API for camera movements for 3rd parties like FS Realistic
2- Make the ATC usable and enjoyable, all the voices are the same
3- Add photogrametry cities worldwide in World Updates, not just in one country.
4- Add clarity to screens in VR, they are currently unreadable unless we spend 3000$ on the latest VR Gear, in other sims, screens are clear so it’s not an unsolvable issue.
5- Make another poll system for wishlists, they are only the same items at the top for months now

  1. UI/UX. Fix startup times, update experience, proper flight planner, real VFR map, menu GPU usage etc.
  2. Fix the messed up roll behavior on takeoff and landing when on the ground. Stop the airplanes from dancing on the runway.
  3. More focus on quality / stability of releases. Do not release with obvious bugs like mouse not working on world map, Track IR stopped working, template names instead of labels in the menu etc. Again and again it looks like the time between the final code merge and release is too short and doesn’t allow proper regression testing.
  4. ATC, so that you don’t have to fly online in networks like Vatsim to have proper flights. Maybe partner with a company doing proper ATC like Pilot2ATC. Vatsim is great, but 1. I often don’t have time to commit to a full flight, coverage is very limited and active hours don’t match my schedule.
  5. Promised built in maps (IFR and VFR)

  1. AI aircraft ie. spinning while stationary, bouncing during taxi and realistic go-arounds.
  2. Faster exit from runway for landing aircraft.
  3. ATC eg. correct allocation of take-off runways to suit wind direction.
  4. Real weather.
  5. “Bumps” on taxiways at certain airports eg LFPG.

Hi.

  1. improving smoothness (or, in general, performances)
  2. improving photogrammetry
  3. additional aircraft
  4. improving ATC, with more Azure voices and more detailed instructions by controllers
  5. improving servers stability
7 Likes
  1. obviously performance, i’m hopeful for DX12 with SU10
  2. colorgrading of the sim needs work, i tried to combat that with my reshade but it can only do so much

  3. i’d love to see proper RT Global Illumination, or Direct Illumination, i don’t care about reflections.
  4. Terrain LOD slider needs to be seperated from ortho textures, draw distance kills fps not the quality of the streamed textures. so at LOD10 for example i still want to be able to stream ZL19 level of ortho textures.
  5. And probably one of the most important ones for visual realism atm, more cloud types!

Most of the thing I’d like Asobo to work on are already announced being worked on, such as improved aerodynamics, live weather accuracy. However, there are a few things which I think could use be ‘expedited’ a little in the development process.

  • AMD FSR as an alternative to the now being worked on DLSS. Nvidia technology is impressive, but ultimately very exclusive to RTX 2000 series cald holders and up. FSR 2.0 is looking very promising, without the locked down nature of DLSS. They said they would discuss this in the next Q&A.

  • Snow on the runway of international airports is a big no no. Yeah, I can install addons to remove most of it, but the good ones are paid, and I already have a big list of addons on the “to be purchased” list.

  • For third-party airliners, the fact that every dev has to implement their own terrain and navigation database is a little ‘meh’. And the fact that most planes do not ship with a weather radar due to the restrictive nature of this data eeks me the most. Definitely the part of the plane SDK that could use the most attention!

  • Native support for VDGS would be awesome. It’s great that it works with an external application, but with native support for this in the SDK, this would leave no excuses for developers not to implement it.

  1. Major Tom to ground control, my rudder is out of whack
  2. So is my trim wheel on stock planes
  3. Improve AI ATC to follow the STARs’ and SIDs’ constraints everywhere consistently
  4. Fix AI ATC phraseology
  5. Fix VR clarity issues with buttons and text on the panels

  1. Improve ATC, instructions should be relevant to the aircraft being flown. Add regional accents too.
  2. Fix AI, no more circling on taxi ways, no more landing like planks of wood, use SIDs and STARs around airports, clear runways quickly, try another approach if the first or second is missed.
  3. Sort out the ground issues with aircraft including the trim issues and excessive rudder input required to take off.
  4. Stop reducing visibility so much just because its raining. Rain does not mean misty conditions in all cases.
  5. Reduce the yellow ambient light around sunset and dawn, its excessive.

  1. Support for multiple monitors and views (w/o performance penalty for pop-out windows)
  2. Flexible and highly configurable camera and replay system
  3. No more morphing mountains and coastlines
  4. Seamless weather
  5. Working ATC and AI

  1. Save Games working like FSX;
  2. Greater variety of vegetation (species by region);
  3. Save real-time weather as weather themes;
  4. Weather history by date/time;
  5. Filter to mitigate joystick axis jitter.

I Will keep this very simple, the sim is a wonderful piece of work, but the most annoying thing for me is the CTD from add ons or whatever.
Everything else I can seem to work around

Thanks to all of you for submitting your top 5. I keep reading countless threads with things that need fixed but even I started to lose count of what wasn’t or was fixed. Appreciate this everyone, hopefully we can get visibility on this!
