Better camera adjustments and a working replay.

2. AI 

Everything else is just icing on the cake.  

I mean, the AI in most video games is smarter than the AI in MSFS

I wish they'd sort out the stuttering.

The only stuttering I've had is that associated w/ ATC text logging and mic-off static sound which seems to be when the stutter occurs.  When you're set up well there is no stuttering beyond this.  A few updates back they listened to reports about microstuttering associated with the spinning logging indicator on the lower right part of the display and fixed this thankfully.  For the ATC stutter issue I often turn off ATC on the control dropdown for periods of time and I think I will submit a zendesk on this--I submitted three of them for the spinning logging indicator and it did go away so maybe that helps.

Chief complaints:

1.  Integration of METAR/local weather/haze, and other weather outside this.  Often as you know there is a layer of decreased visibility that looks like smog over big metro areas, and it is not blended well into the MeteoBlue weather.

2.  Cloud depiction:  cloud density/resolution has become way lower than it needs to be for those w/ the processing power to cope with much better rendering.  And cloud morphology/types.

3.  ATC still needs work though it's improved definitely.  I'm not happy with some of the Azure voicings they do not sound like real-world ATC they sound too good, especially the dude!   It's not concatenation as is the case w/ some 3rd party ATC, it's the voice inflections are just off and hard to describe exactly what is off.

There seems to be a lot of demand for ATC. 

Rightfully enough, the default ATC is as bad as it gets but who uses default ATC? 

Currently there's no decent 3rd party ATC program so the default is all there is but eventually someone will make one. It's a good bet, that a 3rd party ATC program will be better than whatever ASOBO might come up with. Just like the weather in p3d, a third party developer will do a much better job than the stock offering. 

ATC. I know there are addons but there is a lot of room for improvement with the default. 

Overhaul of the AI/ATC system.

1. Better cloud variations with a slider bar to adjust the cloud sharpness/resolution separately from the rest of the game. I find that if you turn up the sharpness using the Nvidia game filter or Reshade it makes the clouds appear grainy.

2. Fly by camera view and the ability to extend the spot plane view further out.

3. A force feedback option for those that have controllers that support it.

Other one I left off is water. While it can look amazing up close and when windy , it looks flat and lifeless most of the time. Especially up higher 

1. (and by far number 1.): More cloud variations and more realistic cloud patterns and layers in live weather, especially cirrus clouds, stratus clouds, CB and more. The engine can do that already, but live weather data are just not being interpreted well by the engine for some reason

2. Better ATC (no repeating messages, not assigning wrong or nonsensical altitudes, just being more realistic overall

3. Being able to leave the cockpit and freely walk around

Wind Gusts, Physics , ATC & live traffic a little more alive.

We need volumetric water like in P3D. I'm not saying I want submarines, but it would be nice for scenery devs to be able to control the exact 3d space that water consumes.

Live weather depiction. It's unreliable.

Not good for Pilots.

Obviously ATC & AI, but at least we have AIG & Pilot2ATC. I doubt that we will ever see the user speak directly to the program. It's so important to IFR operations and for years neglected by MS in its sims.

So many, like me, have very smooth flight without stutters. The issue is probably with your setup/configuration.

Plenty of posts on this forum to help with stuttering.

Eh? There are several decent ATC third party apps.
