September 11, 20196 yr I love all the visuals from MSFS'20 thus far, but I'm truly hoping that the ATC will be significantly improved to go with the eye candy. We all know the issues there. Also, adding some dynamic range to the spectrum of sounds around the airport would be welcomed as well.
September 11, 20196 yr I hope that the sounds in the default airplanes can be upgraded (A2A aircraft are good examples) - I am amazed at the difference in immersion when taxiing and hearing occasional creeks, or thuds of tires over concrete/bumps, and of course the sounds one might hear in the air such as making a quick steep bank or pulling back on the yoke and the "rushhhh" of air over the wings and fuselage, you can just hear the stresses! Rain sounds hitting the windscreen and airframe also make a huge difference! Obviously these are more prevalent in a smaller aircraft but there are many sounds that give us hints of whats going on even with eyes closed. A simulator is all about immersion, visual and audio is all we have to work with!
September 19, 20196 yr Physical modeling synthesis for the audio! A computer user can be a gamer, or a simmer, or both. Having fun with a simulator does not mean that the simulator ceased being a simulator and is now a game. Simulators are not played, simulators are used. Simulators are simulators, and games are games. A software product could be both. In the case of MSFS, from https://www.flightsimulator.com/june-20th-2019/: "We are making Microsoft Flight Simulator. Emphasis on the word SIMULATOR."
