April 4Apr 4 This should be reason enough to throw MSFS 2020 into the trash can!

April 4Apr 4 looks don't count 🤣 unless they look that good. this is how all aicraft should look in 2026. as if they had assistance from Carenado.

April 4Apr 4 I didn't upgrade my PMDG 737-800 to MSFS 2024 yet, but if the new textures are this good, I may finally pay the "few cups of coffee" upgrade fee because this looks really good. i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM
April 4Apr 4 Great, no more jpeg textures. Glad to see PMDG finally getting a handle on their visuals. About time!
April 4Apr 4 Wow that comparison is massive! Huge difference there. Glad I waited for the 700... that's the BBJ version I love! | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

April 4Apr 4 I'm just not convinced, looks to me like pretty much all of those comparison shots were taken under different lighting conditions. So how much of any visual differences are due to the better lighting capabilities of the sim engine itself as opposed to the modelling? I wonder...

April 4Apr 4 The 2020 shots do look suspiciously low res. I don't remember it ever looking that bad. We are on the edges of advertising standards regulations I think. 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2 - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base
April 4Apr 4 Impressive! Despite all the critics, some of them surely deserved, I still enjoy my PMDG aircrafts very much. Always fun to enter the flighdeck of thoses 737 or 777. Can't wait! And also glad that full power will finally be applied of the different 747.
April 4Apr 4 Competition is always good for the consumers. I like what I see. cheers, NiIs U.AMD 5800X3D | 32GB DDR4 RAM @ 3200MHz | RTX 4070 12GB @ 1920x1050px
April 4Apr 4 Haha, they're trying hard to keep up with the iFly. Not quite managing though, especially compared to what's coming out soon from iFly. Andrew Crowley
April 4Apr 4 Even though I basically only fly PMDG aircraft these days, I do agree that some of the MSFS 2020 screenshots look a bit low resolution. Having said that, the ones that look like that are generally internal areas, and I never really looked at those in MSFS 2020.
