Before uninstalling MFS2020, just a last test for the sake of REALISM, for the love of real AVIATION!
I was able to fly … (in storm!! CB…) and worst than that I just landed the C172 in ultra lethal weather at BIKF!!! (See below METAR/SIGMET)
I deserve a medal, a trophee! I flew through huge CB (not a single turbulence, not a little humble convective, nothing, just winds and Gust!!!)
It is such a big time frustration! … ok let’s be cool because some of users call it a Flight Sim however terminoly is important, a flight sim that doesn’t simulate the minimum required two years after the release date, how could we call it? No word just facts.
They really reduced the turbulence, there is no danger in the skies based on Sigmet/Metar/Taf.
They just don’t care as a matter of fact about REALISM, it’s just about DX12/Perf/Visual/New Nvidia drivers … and lions on the ground in order to please the entire majority of users who do not care that much about real aviation that could be simulated in a realisitc way, I can understand that somehow. However what about the respect to AVIATION then?
Is it bashing to mention that MSFS 2020 do not simulate reality at all about what’s going on in the sky or is it factual? … of course it’s factual, give a try at BIKF or CYJT or BGKK right now, you’ll get the same statement Captains obviously for the sake of honesty!
SU10 is fantastic in terms of performances no doubt and visual but I don’t need to see my house as the same location than in reality to be happy! I do prefer to prepare my flight plan based on the weather conditions of the day before getting on the tarmac, and to show my respect to Mother Nature because sometimes out there it could become dangerous very rapidly, I’ve been there… (in real life, same in XPlane)
Thermals do not work properly, it was even better before and now turbulence are drastically reduced, nothing in CB/TS, it’s ridiculous, how come they get to that point ??? … It is such a regression in this area (no no no, again it’s not about bashing it’s just factual!)
Every pilots or/and hardcore simmers know so well that if you have a sigmet you try to avoid the danger included in it, this is the base of what we do learn in PPL lessons…
Words are weak, facts talk by themselves, give a try to fly in real or with XP12 at BIKF and then that should be the last flight ever! MSFS2020 SU10 again still allows you to take beautiful screenshots in storms, no worries, no up/downdraft, no convective, all good and enjoy!
That is GTA/Xbox spirit IMO…after two years!!!
I believe that my post won’t stay that long here just by mentioning facts! It doesn’t matter because at the end I don’t pretend to change the spirit of this beautiful game!
