It's just a game though and not a real sim 

If this is your definition of a game, then who really cares.  I’ll take “magnificent” any day of the week.

One of the greatest movies ever made about flying.

Had a near zero visibility landing with rain and some crosswind at CYHZ a few hours ago, it looked great and was fun. I didn’t fly in third person, I did that for the screenshots.

This was the sim’s ‘live weather’ not REX or any third party injector.

@Tuskin38 same with me ! Found that airport in my usual search at badbadweather.com for nasty weather, and went there doing circuits in the latest dev released of the FBW A32X NEO... Wow !  Great experience !!!

When the weather actually works it works great.

It was a yoke dude--yes, MSFS is indeed magnificent right out of the box

Another great experiance with approach into EDDH, wind, rain pounding the windscreen, visability poor, what other sim can give the same immersion. I have noticed for the past week or so they must be tweaking the weather as it's becoming far more realistic recently.

Well Asobo are game developers, and it still has a long way to transition from game to sim. At least with 2+ millions sales it will have the blessings from MS, so hopefully in time the budget can turn it to more sim like.

It was magnificent about 2 updates ago, now I don't know what to call it, maybe adequate and sometimes tolerable 🙂

I dunno...an RNP into CYLW ...to below mins...feels pretty simmy to me...maybe I'm biased.

What will be the exact point when you will recognize its transition from game to sim?

The plane is wiggling at 4:00, the physics really needs improving.

I didn't know when I purchased Premium Deluxe upon release that I was being asked to invest in a work in progress not ready for serious simmers..  That being said, I'm still waiting.  Meanwhile, P3D v5.1 is my simulator of choice.
