  1. You don't need those reddit videos. Its unreliable airspeed figures are way off the FCOM mark and so are the climb rates. Other parameters are harder to judge but its obviously grossly overpowered. At this point if they can bring it to ballpark figures I'd be happy cause it seems to have the potential. Question is, how long this may take.
  2. Actually I see the potential there. I see where they are aiming and like what it eventually would/could become. I don't care much about textures and fail to see any significant differences between the likes of fenix pmdg fslabs or the aerosoft a340. The 757 flight deck looks just fine to me. I would also gladly sacrifice the cabin altogether for the sake of performance - even a minor one. I understand that others might have a different set of priorities. I'm also confident they can clean up major bugs that slipped through the initial release. My major concern are the flight dynamics that are quite questionable at their current state, to put it mildly. It took fenix ( the consensual gold standatd - justifiably or not) eons to bring their dynamics from disastrous in V1 to more acceptable in V3. Wonder how long it would take BB to do the same,,,,
  3. Not necessarily. Some of them are there to monetize their channel rather than getting a freebee. Be overly critical, and you might see your audience go smaller. This is not to say that there are no decent guys out there! As a rule of thumb though, the more they take the "entertainer" style the bigger is that grain of salt to be taken with their reviews..,,but I digress.
  4. Different what?? engine performance that are 150 - 300 % off the stated values? The " pilot" title doesn't automatically mean that the review isn't skewed or one sided. Just like the "tested by real world pilots" endorsement on a title should always arouse suspicions... Top notch addons usually don't require those.
  5. No, its not! Problem is that some consider them like it was the gospel and come parroting these nonsense all across the board. There are other streamers though. that while refraining from being overly critical will never deem something is "great" while the truth suggests otherwise.
  6. As a matter of fact, its MORE than twice at higher altitudes. Either way its grossly overpowered!
  7. Seriously? Solid??! It climbs at twice the rate the FCOM suggests! Gotta love those ra ra ra “influencers” …
  8. While you're not wrong with most statements , it does not go in contradiction with the fact that it would have been nice if those features that supposedly set this one apart from your run of the mill addons were given more emphasis. I wouldn't even consider that criticism, its just calling out the facts as they are.
  9. Just to put things in perspective, Open sky was all about external models and dynamics (to some extent). It was brought to fame mostly for its merger with Wilcos 767 PIC which was one of the first high fidelity payware addons in the fs2k era. POSKY never had anything to do with systems simulation per se.
  10. This will probably go to Fred berfuls "patch" thread (for the few of us that had been here long enoug)
  11. will that not silence all messages, both text and voice?
  12. I went through all the options and unless I missed something (which I don't rule out) , I failed to see anything related to those popups. Care to give me a hint?
  13. wonder if there's a way to remove the popup text ... Use it with SIAI and all those messages get transmitted through voice so the popups are just nuisance.
  14. This is not limited to PMDG boards, to be fair. For a developer, feedback of the sort yourself and others are offering is golden and should have been gladly accepted or at least acknowledged. The community, as you correctly observed, carries no lesser responsibility. When the focal point shifts form system fidelity and good dynamics to texture quality (nice as those might be) and when the heretics who dare to point out the shortcomings of the holy cows are getting stoned - why should the developer waste hundreds of hours on things very few would notice and even fewer will appreciate?
  15. No, the "developer" was a group of people actually and tooltips were available for most part, though not all instruments. At any rate, I'm sure you can still get a refund for the big bucks you had paid for it...
  16. More importantly, will it solve the slalom after steep turns?
  17. Might be using the walkaround removal mode? something else that may be modifying the GUI?
  18. If it’s the departure clearance that’s you are expecting to see, then it would only appear on the mcdu as you have mentioned. Other instructions such as altitude clearance, handovers etc. should appear on your dcdu, however.
  19. Working fine here. Did it work for you with the bridge before the latest update?
  20. My guess is that you have gsx pax enabled which is more likely the culprit rather then the plane itself. this can be easily corrected by untucking and re-ticking the pax option in the gsx manager rather than reinstalling the whole shabang.
  21. Don’t recall if i ever stumbled upon wake turbulence in the sim. I might have attenuated it completely as the general turbulence model is so excessively overdone that it bares not even remote resemblance to what one might expect in reality.
  22. So you are having issues with wake turbulence. I assume you’re happy with the “normal” turbulence, right?
  23. It’s always been the case. They have shut down the discord channel for the holiday and seem to have liked this so much that it will remain permanently shut. At least that’s what I understand from their latest communication. If you’re having issues the only channel that’s left for you is to open a ticket. From my experience thus far they respond quite promptly.
  24. On my setup this is definitely a chaseplane issue. The way around it is to set the camera setting to "rigid" so it wouldn't wobble about as much and open a ticket with parallel 42 so they can try and tackle that issue
  25. On my part at least, it has nothing to do with turns or PMDG (which is an issue in its own right). It's like the plane is constantly hitting exaggerated turbulence.
