Im the only one who thinks the atmosphere of the sim feels dead.. I dont know how to explain very well but i you go to the caribbean or Hawaii it doesnt feel like warm atmosphere it feels the same as if you where in iceland or UK.. Plus there is no reef in any islands..

Here is a video i found..

 

They have talked about these containing things not yet released.... so they say

Its what the videos said hope its true.. Im very happy with the sim it just need to be improving.. 

Some haze in the boundary layer would be nice.

Patience.... patience... is what I tell myself. There are lots of issues, and it will take time to work out. 

Yes, some patience is needed. There are also so many issues after the recent USA World Update, that the table is full of homework for Asobo. I also fear that bringing more realism to the sim will cause another set of steps... backwards... 😆

I actually prefer the water without the reefs, they are a bit blocky looking.

from the video at 3:30 - 3:45...

"150 kts maybe this is what the water looks like in the Bahamas, but not in the UK at 150 kts"

Was the guy joking, he sounds so serious...

Not sure what is meant by "dead". MSFS is, to me, the most lively sim I have ever flown, going back to FSX and FS9 and earlier. Moving cars, moving people at airports, AI planes in the sky and on the ground, constant chatter with ATC ... it sure feels alive to me!

Its very lively... things will continue to constantly improve moving forward. This will be a fun ride.

I agree that this is a colossal project and we need to be patient and accept that it will improve over time but probably will never be perfect.

But if you show me something in a trailer and the trailer is an actual in-game footage, I have the right to expect to see the same in the game, otherwise I "might" think it's just a video ad, obtained who knows how, released to push sales. 

Another thing I don't understand and for which I have not much patience, are the issues with the coastlines and the blocky cloud reflections in calm water that are very evident in the last update. I mean, you can see them clearly just after takeoff in the Alaska bush trip which has  been released as new content. I cannot imagine how they put a new bush trip in the game and didn't even tried to takeoff to see how it looked before release.

My biggest issue is the water gets unnaturally choppy at quite slow windspeeds, with winds below about 10 knots there should be very little chop at all.

It is not unusual to look out on a calm morning here and see an almost flat Pacific ocean extending to the horizon.

As many have said, it's an impressive world simulator rather than a impressive flight sim. The eye candy is very impressive, but they continue stripping even that back to improve performance, and the aircraft simulation aspect is just terrible at the moment. I really want it to improve but for now I'm not bothering to run it. It's not worth the frustration for me.

You`re not alone.

Most cities that are not photogrammetry look like that gloomy Inception look to me. (all buildings about the same color, also the sky not being the vibrant Earth-Blue, but more like Pollution-Smog-Blue)
