TOP immersion killers

Featured Replies

I'd like to promote two topics from the official forums wishlist that are most annoying to me:

1. Automatic pop up of logbook while shutting down the engines. Apart from killing the immersion this has another downside: If you choose "continue" to finish the flight in a way that befits a simulation a new entry in the logbook is created showing zero values if you quit to the main menu thereafter making the logbook more convoluted than necessary.

2. Ground vehicles on taxiways. I have switched them off but I would rather have them using their own lanes.

While topic #2 is already in the "Top Wishes" list and scheduled for 2021 (maybe more votes will speed up the process?), topic #1 is in dire need for additional votes. So if you feel the same please use the provided links and vote (log in required).

1 to 5 second freezes of the sim over many large metropolitan areas. Pretty much killed the sim for me for IFR.

The only two things annoying me are the missing water masks in the tropical destinations and the damage done to the shorelines after a recent ASOBO update. Other than that I'm very happy with MSFS.

Yup, the coastlines were great until they were ruined after the update.

So, the fact that you can't actually get out of the plane after shutting it down, since you can't open the doors doesn't seem to bother anyone......

The horizon line, the terrain spikes, the coastline glitch... the end screen when you finish a flight....scenery artifacts in general. The unrealistic ground behaviour with wind (extreme weather vaning). Lack of adverse yaw, torque effects in single engine props. Over icing effects. Clouds slowing down your speed when you fly into them.

A twilight that doesn't last until 3 a.m.! A real dark night with improved city lighting at night! the stars too. there is a lot of work to do for the night

Horizon Line

Terrain Spikes

Logbook intrusion at shut down

LOD levels of POI being shamefully bad

Water Masks not working as advertised

Snow not working as advertised

 

Just a few of my most hated immersion breaking aspects of this Sim.

Lack of water masks

Sunken boats all over the word
