SU7 "ASSISTANCE OPTIONS"

Featured Replies

Well, this one tricked me to think there was really something WRONG with the flight dynamics in MFS post SU7 so I wanted to share it ...

After installing SU7 and purchasing and testing the "Reno Air Races", I went testing around and found that MFS was feeling completely strange / Arcade ! 

I was tempted to start posting here about how bad it felt .. Glad I didn't ...

Actually, in my case SU7 installed an reverted all "ASSISTANCE OPTIONS" to "ALL ASSIST", which results in a truly plastic / arcade feel of the sim. Beware and check your options too, just in case the update did the same to your MFS install.

I use "HARD" in them all less "USER EXPERIENCE".

I'll add to this.. if you do something in content manager it'll also reset all your assistance options back to easy, as I just found out 😄

Good lord, what kind of messy programming makes those things possible?

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Messy programming i can forgive, not picking up on the messy programming before pushing it out the door i cant. 

I don't blame Asobo entirely either, lots of this is down to Microsofts "we've set a date, get it out" policy which is sadly prevalent in the gaming industry these days amongst publishers, putting developers under too much pressure and thats why we end up with these results.  Still, how no one noticed this and also the clouds at the wrong altitude bug is beyond me.

The point is that after you reset them to your desired settings they revert to Easy mode (randomly).

Who'd a thought? Must try that.

Do we have a reference for this? Perhaps a public statement from MS? Leaked email?

To me it's obvious, this is for the X box users that have been complaining that  the aircraft are too hard to fly.

You don't need any of those if you know how publishers work in this industry.   Once MS start advertising the GOTY edition all over the web with a date...that's the date.   It's extremely rare once a publisher has spent a small fortune marketing something that it gets delayed because it isn't ready.  Push it out the door and patch it later is now the industry standard.

Seems like we're climbing the Ladder of Inference here, but never mind.
