We'll just have to see if the computer blows up, as is usually the case with this company's products.

If you're looking for the best fidelity in this particular simulator, in my opinion, it's FSlabs and Leonardo; that said, nothing comes close to the Hotstart CL650 (again, this is just my personal opinion).

It's a strange combination—Toliss on X-Plane is an outstanding developer. Aerosoft has been selling hot air for years; that's why I haven't bought it, although if you want a high-fidelity A340 and don't have X-Plane, you have no other choice. On Airliners for Microsoft, Leonardo and Fénix are the best in my book when it comes to taking care of their products.

That's the problem I know people who consult it for serious matters and don't realize that it makes things up. Anyone who trusts this technology right now doesn't know what they're doing; it needs to mature a lot more I've seen it fail even at simple math calculations.

Ask the same question to three different AIs, and you’ll get three different answers and all three answers will almost certainly be lies. I don’t know if AI is going to destroy us as a species or not, but I don’t think it will be necessary we’re already doing a fine job of destroying ourselves by consuming all the planet’s resources at an unsustainable rate. The only thing missing was AI, which consumes resources as if there were no tomorrow.

Of course, monitor image quality and resolution matter, but so do your settings and the area you're flying in. It's easy for me to notice because I only fly the A2A Comanche in MFS; I usually fly much more VFR with the XP12 and my orthos generated with Ortho4XP that's where I really notice the downgrade from SU4 to SU5.

I live in Alicante, Spain, so I know a thing or two about the heat, and I can tell you that normally, a well built computer isn't going to suffer any more just because it's 34 degrees that's a typical summer day here. During heat waves, the temperature goes up much higher, but I've never had to stop gaming or working on a computer in the 40 or so years I've been gaming on a PC.

There are tons of add-ons with issues, including extremely expensive products from prestigious brands. For example, I went over a year without being able to use PMDG’s DC6 until someone on Avsim told me a trick involving developer mode. Then there are other well-known developers here who constantly release alphas and need dozens of patches just to get their products to work reasonably well, or who release products they know will malfunction because they rely on the simulator’s default systems which they know aren’t right and don’t even bother to develop and customize those systems themselves. Someone said we’re living in a golden age of simulation, but I increasingly feel like I have a second job as a software tester one that, instead of making me money, actually costs me money.

Since the last SU, I've had several crashes with MFS, so there might be an issue. I've had 7- and 8-hour sessions with XP12, which is more demanding on my hardware, without any problems, so I'm ruling out issues with my computer.

Only one CL650 HotStart in any simulator. If it's exclusively in MFS with permission from FSlabs (I haven't tried their Airbus yet due to budget constraints)Leonardo's MD80 is by far the best add-on I have.

I'm also disappointed that there isn't a version of XP12. I use both simulators, and I hope it really does work better than the current alternatives, which have a lot of extra features but seem to fall short on the basics.

It’s not ignorance, because the community has told them this time and time again over the years. It’s not a matter of prioritizing resources either; the community and third-party developers have asked them to open the API to third parties so they can fix it, but they don’t want to. The weather really isn’t important to them; we have to accept that and make do with what we have.

You don't have to go to Asobo for that kind of marketing; right here in these forums, you can read a lot of hyperbole about this simulator as if everything were perfect. MFS is a good product, no one can deny that but it has many areas for improvement, some of which remain critical.

You have to realize that it doesn't always have to be consoles versus PCs. Microsoft's video game division hasn't been doing very well for quite some time now; perhaps it's not a matter of performance, but rather of conserving resources.

I suspect it's going to be like what happened with 2020,once it became stable, they released 2024.

Maybe I'll buy it in 50 or 60 patches' time and ofcouse at half price...

This is where I always feel like we're using different versions of the simulator. I've never liked Alaska in any simulator, and MFS has always looked terrible in many areas.😀 As for the textures, the latest downgrade has been pretty painful. That, combined with the classic photogrammetry issues found in many parts of the world, has resulted in my A2A Comanche being permanently parked in the hangar.

That’s why I had my doubts about the 300. I have other products from the developer, and they come with a lot of extras that don’t interest me personally, but I’m not sure what it actually simulates or how it does it, even though I’ve read the manual. I’m not saying it’s better or worse either; personally, based on what I’m reading here, this one might be closer to what I’m looking for in a simulator. In any case, I’ll wait a while to see more reviews—from experience, I know that once the hype dies down for these products, that’s when you really see the pros and cons.

I can't wait to read reviews of this plane and see how it compares to other aircraft of this type in MFS.

Thanks to this developer, I’ve started flying again from time to time in MFS2024. I still don’t understand all the praise for this simulator’s scenery, when semi-desert areas like the surroundings of LEAL look like something out of Jumanji. I don’t understand how this guy can fix the absurd size of the trees, but Asobo can’t.

I was just about to click “buy” – you saved me at the last minute...

If it works well for helicopters and general aviation, it could be a game-changer

That’s true – I hadn’t used the simulator for quite a few weeks. I’ve done two flights of about three hours each with A2A Comanche, and the drop in quality is quite noticeable. I’ve had to turn the texture detail up from high to ultra, and it doesn’t look as good as it used to.
