My turn to....

not really complain, but point out some much needed improvements

This bay is far too wide, but I'm surprised they got the ferry location right! Only problem is, if a ship like that got into the bay a lot of people would crap their pants and wonder how it got in!

Coastline is good, but far to dry... This is the National park area, and is green all year around

As stated above, this area is National park..... If there was this much development IRL, someone would get a huge fine....

These are meant to be shear cliffs, not step hills.... but still a nice attempt by MS.

yeah well, you cant really demand that they would get everything right everywhere eh? ;D. The ground indeed seems a bit dry, this is just a landclass/texture thingie, maby costum textures will solve the problem.

aren't the waves scaled way too large?

The waves look alright o me. I don't mind the way the waves look.

As for the scenery, I like to thank Microsoft for at least getting some stuff right in the sim. For starters, I like how they improved the accuracy of certain buildings in Downtown Miami. On top if that, the main highway that leads all the way from Downtown Miami to Florida City in Homestead is pretty dang accurate. It's so accurate, I nearly flinched. Heck, even the highway ramps were rendered pretty accurately. ;D

well the waves are probably making the people on the ship (that makes people crap their pants) crap there pants!
 I had an expirience like that once!
I was driving along the pacific coast in some area and I looked out into a small bay and saw a ginormous Millitary Ship, which made me crap my pants.

Personally, I'm quite happy with those waves. Those are quite accurate for flying over that area, except for in that bay that I said was too wide, it never gets a swell. The area with the national park off to the left wing gets some nice large swells if the wind direction is right, it has some sand bars through the centre that really makes them stand up.
