Advertising and reality seldom match each other. Next time you go to a burger bar, look at the picture of what you ordered then look at what they just served you.

Yeah, still a wrong example.

A hamburger is something to eat, not an art product you put on your display.

Gaming software is usually advertised via video to show the graphics. That is the main reason to show a video. Video games are played mainly via looking at them. A better comparison would be to praise a new car with 8 cylinders, but the engine in the final product only uses 4 cylinders. And you notice it after you bought the car. Would you say 'ah well, a hamburger looks better in the commercial, I'm fine with 4 cylinders, car is driving anyway'?

I think McDonald's marketing department, would solely disagree with you.

Thats a real shame, I dont have the sim yet but was hoping that Asia and its beaches/corals would be like in the sim. I have a home in the Philippines on Panay Island so I hope Asobo sorts out not just that area but all beaches so that it looks like it does in the tailers!

Haha that is brillant, and quite amazing that it took till 2020 to match that artists rendering of what FSX was SUPPOSED to look like!

 

 

But I got another Thing for you.

We comming a long way.

Well, you can see how fast those Coral Reefs are being destroyed! We need to save the environment!

Another reason for increasing geo sensitivity through tools like Microsoft Flight Simulation.  Probably something in the Gate foundation things todo list in 2020.
